General

writing, reading, wildlife, biology, diseases, drawing, painting, rock climbing, hiking, swimming........ current projects: i'm almost done with a children's story i wrote and illustrated forever ago, then decided to redo last year. next up is finally finishing this damn novel i started three years ago and keep picking up and dropping. i'm done with the 1st draft, but want to get through at least one round of edits before i move on to my next project. i don't know what that'll be yet, i have one absurdist sci-fi that could be fun to write, and another story featuring dragons i keep thinking about. i guess i'll worry about that when i finish this lesbian pirate novel. it's fun to have that much possibility after feeling stuck on one thing so long.
