So much reading! So much traveling! So little writing!
Don’t look at me like that. You’re not shocked either.
May Wrap-Up
- My progress toward Steel Justice this month was super nebulous, but I did figure out where my hang-up was. There is a plan in place toward overcoming it, and I’m cautiously optimistic.
- I had a fantastic time at StokerCon 2019 with some amazing and lovely horror writers. You can check out my con report of that event.
- And as usual, this year’s Balticon was also a blast. My con report for that event is also up.
- I wrapped up the month with an overnight to New York City for the day job, where I can neither confirm nor deny a visit to the Sanctum Sanctorum.

It looks like a light month, but I have lots of other commitments sprinkled in there. It’s a good thing its summertime, because a new Mexican grill opened up in walking distance from my house. I’m excited for writing dates with myself and a large margarita in their lovely outside seating area.
