It is december 1st, and NaNoWrimo is officially over. I am both glad and relieved and proud at the same time. But the work is not over yet and my lizardbrain is fully cooperating with Resistance-with-a-capital-R and telling me it's OK to take a break. I did a huge thing and I deserve a rest. 

Right? Right??? Wrong.

At least, if I want this monstrosity of a draft finished before we wave out 2020. So let's look for ways to keep that motivation going. I will definitely be buying myself a gift if I manage the finished draft before the 31st.

And now. Links mentioned:

• Every Time She Kills Him, by J.A.W. McCarthy, featured on episode 461 of Tales to Terrify, narrated by yours truly
• The two amazing poets who I got to attend a workshop from at Augurcon: Dominik Parisien and Terese Mason Pierce. Of course I explored their work later, and I will be including links to my favourite pieces in my newsletter. (Sign up here)
• If you have more tips to keep me on task, I'd love to hear about them. Hit me up on Twitter, or shoot me an email. 

I will talk to you later.

Stay safe and remember to practice kindness!
