Writerly Ways

I'm just going to launch in to links. I'm too tired for anything. I've taken nearly double my dose of insulin but my sugar won't come down. It was at least nice a cool (if raining) all day. I'm leaving tomorrow for my birthday. Going home for a week with the parents. Not really looking forward to it.

I do have a bit of writing news. My steampunk short story was rejected. My lesbian monster hunter flash fic was accepted.
