Oiy. My hips are so tired and sore from a day of couch shopping. But then, I do seem to have reached an age where shopping injuries are now a thing.
SSCS 04: Installment 3 of 34
The Heart of the Gull Queen’s Huntress This is Installment 3 of this year’s SSCS. If you want to start at the beginning of ‘The Heart of the Gull Queen’s Huntress’, go here! If you want to know what the heck an SSCS is, go here! (And the character list is here.) Previously… “Here, San.” She plucked at San’s sleeve who’d sat on the other side of her, and pulled him back toward the back wall, pressing an ear against…

Day-Moon – Crow-Moon 2025 Look-Back
Another year, another blog look-back (here are the look-backs from the previous years: 2024, 2023).

This thinness would be easy to blame on the fact…
