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.
It’s been a hot minute. I believe the last time I wrote was September 2024, so… almost a year! I was editing some stuff in October/November but ended up deciding to take a break to focus on my health, and then I just… uh… never quite ended that break XD
Sounds like a decent break! I definitely feel you on putting down writing for a while to focus on something more important, like your health (definitely more important!).
The unofficial theme of the August writing club post is drought hehe, partially because of the subjective weather but also because I’m struggling to write while working + looking for a fulltime job!
Feel free to wade in to the comments on that August post, and if you feel so inclined, maybe even set a goal for next month! Either way, you’re more than welcome.
