Hello hello, and welcome to our now 13th (XIIIth) writing club update. My dictionary explains that the meaning of “thirteen” is:
One more than twelve.
Truly words to live by. Shuffling around my books for a more inspirational bit of numerology, I find the chapter in Mervyn Peake’s “Titus Groan” book, wherein we’re introduced to the outsider “Keda” who is to be a wet-nurse for the titular prince of Gormenghast. I’m not sure how that relates to what we’re doing here, but it’s a pretty weird, and cool, book.
Speaking of weird and cool…!
As always, all are extremely welcome to participate in the writing club, regardless of whether they’re in the list above.
Do you read? I found that reading and writing go hand in hand for me, and the times I’ve written the most were the ones when I also read the most. It’s kind of a mutual feedback dynamic!
I read nonstop!! Several books a month. I like to think that I’m still learning something even if I’m not writing right now… and I definitely get those bursts of inspiration as I’m reading still hehe
