Know-vember

Where’s My Pancakes?
It’s Shrove Tuesday — where are my pamcakes?! I shouldn’t have a Tuesday that’s this crazy but I do, so forgive the brevity of this post. Monday was a whirlwind, too, but that’s kind of expected. This morning I woke up to an email with a contract for the short story “Lachrymae Draconis” and in…
