I hate

  1. proofreading my faerie story. It makes me feel like quitting writing forever. Like what’s the point? Do I really enjoy slogging away and then getting rejected. Although the faerie story has never been rejected as it hasn’t been sent out anywhere because after a week of proofreading, I am only on page ten because there is so much to fix;
  2. that we are on the third snow day in two weeks. While single parenting, I need Tesfa to go to school so I can get stuff done. Like proofreading my faerie story that I am starting to loathe;
  3. that I am getting a sore throat that seems suspiciously like it might be the starting stages of strep throat. This after being perpetually sick since November;
  4. proofreading my faerie story. Yep, still hate it;
  5. Vladimir Putin. Nothing in particular that he’s done like in the last twenty-four hours or anything. Just in general, he seems like someone I shouldn’t like that much;
  6. how I haven’t written anything new I’ve liked since the autumn. It probably means that I’ve grown out of short stories and should work on longer things but I like that short stories can be finished in a shorter amount of time;
  7. getting a ARC that is a PDF. I wish I knew that it would be a PDF before I requested it because then I wouldn’t. EPUB all the way;
  8. this feeling of hating everything. Like I should try to be positive and uplifting and all I want to do is crawl into bed and be left alone.

For balance, I’ll try to post a list of things I like tomorrow.
