I put off reading The Shepherd's Crown for quite a while, Atropa, but I once I did read it I was glad I did. Lotta feels went with it, though, not gonna lie.
Mal: You were dead! Tracy: Hunh? Oh. Right. Suppose I was. Hey there, Zoe.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Tiffany Aching and Granny Weatherwax are two of my touchstone role models. I wish the Tiffany Aching books had been around when I was a preteen.
Same. Little Women and Anne of Green Gables were all very well, but my goodness I could have used those two as role models back then. I certainly intend to do that now.
Witches deal with things, do they? For most of my life, “dealing with things” was the most terrifying concept to me. It involves decisions and choices and risking people’s disapproval and walking paths that only go one way. And now I’m trying to square up and keep moving, because someone has to do it.

Or is it take care of things? That’s what I wrote down. One of you will know.

Deal with things is what I am finding online. What narrator are you listening to, smonster? I have Stephen Briggs (who I still think of as the guy who made the anorankh from my Usenet days but I see there is also a multi-narrator version that just recently came out and I'm curious about it

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I’m enjoying the multi narrator versions. I don’t think they’ve all been released yet, but I have gotten as far as The Wyrd Sisters so far.

A small child took my crutch out from under me at the ice cream social tonight. I’m okay other than a scraped knee and all the embarrassment.

Always Anti-fascist!
Rotten little bastard. In other news, pre-birthday lunch was fine. Dad brought it down, as he does.(The guy that I miss is far different from actual him.)

Our wings are not tired.
Oh dear, sj. I hope you aren't sore tomorrow.

I'm going to have to look for these. I do love The Wyrd Sisters!

That’s what I get for trying to pretend to be friendly and confident instead of watching everything vigilantly.
