Writely Ways

[cornerofmadness]

I actually had something for today but it was a rough night. My brain was doomscrolling in my own head. THen I had a dream where I was angry about everything and then woke up to throw up. I've been blah all day.

So let me just hand out the links. I will say I did finally get to see the Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears movie and was a bit underwhelmed. Don't get me wrong, it was enjoyable but I'm glad I didn't pay to see it in the theater. It was not much different than any episode and I have to confess I was disappointed more of it wasn't in Australia with the whole team. They were on screen for about 2 minutes other than Jack. I wasn't that fond of the supernatural Indiana Jones vibe but it was still good and I'm glad I saw it.

And oh have this, all the little bits I have of my 1920s monster hunter. CH 3 and 4 might be new and I'd love input on this original fiction if you care to have a look. Monster Hunting in the Age of Flappers

When I do get round to settling down for a bit of reading later, what kind of input are you looking for? (More the "yay, I love this" or more the "I love this, but have you considered...?" --- As in, would you prefer the cheers you tend to get in CW class after you read your work to the group or the fine-tooth-comb concrit you'd get from your feedback partner?)

Oh thanks. I'm usually open to whatever the reviewer wants to do. I'm usually able to return the favor
