Badges!
No badges for me, this week. Instead, here is a picture of my black cat, Ned, for good luck:

Goals for next week?
This week I missed a couple of days in my A Story A Day series, which I’m rather annoyed about. So for next week, I’m going to catch up AND pre-write a few stories, because I’m really trying to send out a piece every day on my mailing list. It’s basically me writing a serial, without a net. So if I miss a day, my readers miss a day too. That bums me out. But it also reminds me of why serial fiction authors typically write the whole story in advance, before doling it out in pieces. Whoops!
