Happy Lunar New Year 2023

People like to complain about the post-Christmas slog between holidays, but there are plenty of opportunities to celebrate something even in the depths of ❄️ Winter ❄️.

Advice Is Like Snow

Advice is like snow – the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the mind. ~Samuel Taylor Coleridge

It’s been a seriously rough week, but I actually cleared up some of my outstanding logjams. Once you break that down, things begin to flow again.

I can use some flow almost as badly as I need some sleep. It’s been a hot minute since I’ve felt genuine flow.

Something that’s also flowing is the winter weather system. Watch this update from Ryan Hall to see if you’re going to get some snow this weekend.

This Is About To Cause Huge Snowstorms…

My current 10-day forecast is not giving me much hope for a decorative dusting or a crunchy coating.

That’s a relief for those who don’t care to drive in snowy conditions, but it’s a disappointment for people who love the decorative quality of snow.

🐰 Lunar Year Of The Rabbit 🐰

It’s time to bust out the potstickers and chow mein. Lunar New Year is a great opportunity to celebrate an otherwise boring and tedious January.

I’ve got tons of kung fu movies to catch up on this weekend, but I’ll have to sneak them in between some of the work I’m trying to catch up on.

Strong At The Broken Places

The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places. ~Ernest Hemingway

I’ve been feeling way too shattered to do much writing since I finished up with Merry 🔔 Bells. I had a ton of work to catch up on at the same time as trying to get the book formatted and posted for sale on KDP.

Since I’m still recovering from several overexertion incidents, I’ll let Shaelin Bishop over at Reedsy dispense some valuable writing advice for you. I just don’t have the little grey cells available to dispense any writerly wisdom right now.

Bad Writing Habits to Stop in 2023
