I'm so tempted to say "CHA" (IYKYK), but I wouldn't do that. There's nothing I could write up there that would improve it. The Moon has been with humanity since before there were humans. It doesn't "belong" to me or anyone.

#ScribesAndMakers September 12: If you write about craftspeople, scientists, or artists, do you ask specialists, rely on a websearch, rely on your own knowledge, or something else?
I do research online. It is a *cool breeze* doing fiction research compared to academic work! Ho man. You don't have to quote it! You don't have to cite it! You can take *liberties* with the facts. My god. So freeing.

#ScribesAndMakers Sep 15: How's your creativity going? Need help/critique?
I'm always hoping for a second set of eyes, but it's going okay. I know what I need to do with two last, I swear to GOD, final scenes in my first draft. It's just a matter of having both the time and the clear head. That's a hard combo.

#ScribesAndMakers Sep 16: Which part of your work makes you unique/different from anyone else?
My voice. My sensibility. My view of the world. That's what's unique about every one of us.
You wanted something more specific? I'm good at dialogue and compulsive behaviours and *finding* the story when I don't know where I'm going. I can be funny.

#ScribesAndMakers Sep 18: If you write novels, do you strive to have your chapters a consistent length?
Ugh. I'm *obsessed* with making them the same length, but I have to break out of that because it's not helping me tell my story. I really struggle with chaptering. I don't have a sense of when to end them or a method for how to decide, the way that I do with scenes and paragraphs. The problem is I think in comic-book issues and/or dramatic "acts" rather than chapters.
Ugh, I say. Ugh.
