Writerly Ways

[cornerofmadness]

So nano is over. I ended up doing a fanfic project for the most part because I just no longer have the spoons to do original fic right now. Between the shittiness of this year, still not getting paid by my publisher, work and all of it. I did get some on the original thing but not that much.

I'm feeling a tiny bit better now than I did five hours ago. I had to tube feed Kanda today. Then at 3 he ate some treats and was happy to have them but then he threw them up. I tube fed him at 5 and he hasn't thrown that up and even tried a little soft kibble. I want to call the vet again tomorrow and ask, reasonably what are his chances, what is causing this, am I making him suffer for no possible gain.

But thank you, all of you for your input. You've been wonderful and I am so appreciative.

And to those of you who are worrying about my own mental health. It's not good but it often isn't. I'm hanging in there and I appreciate your concern too.

I do have links for you. Hell I probably have a crap ton but you're only getting a few at a time. All from Betty tonight

You mentioned in your last post that you're looking to get a beta for one of your fics-- if you still need it just let me know. I had a cat that was sick for a really long time before he passed, so I understand (as much as anyone can) what you're going through. That feeling of complete dread is the absolute worst, and I'm so so sorry you're going through it.

I was looking for someone for a Buffy fic but I had time to look it over myself and the other is a novel but I'm not ready for that to be honest.

And thank you. I'm sorry you had to go through this.

No worries :) If you ever need anything in the future just shoot me a message <3 I'm sending lots of love and good vibes to both you and Kanda.
