Adventures in Williams-Sonoma 

@KoBunny I... didn't. And I don't think I will, because I can constantly remind myself "copper is the wrong color for the kitchen. That space is silver and mercury and light blue and white for a _reason_."

But if I can find bedroom fixtures in that color to go with a navy-violet-gold color scheme....

Invocation of Leo 

The Sun rises and falls. The moon turns. Stars move. The leaves turn red and the work takes on a rhythm of its own.

Spirit of Leo, steady heat, I invite you to make your mark upon me, to help me tame passion into praxis, to keep my fire stoked as I practice my craft.

Xalki, builder, thank you for your dedication. Your devotion to your work is inspirational, in failure and in success. May I be as committed to my efforts as you've been to yours.

The Work Continues.

@vahnj @Soreth I'm waiting for the dragon whomst breath weapon is a fog of strangelets.

@Wsteria@tootplanet.space Having written three novels, my best advice is to get an outside editor, a writing group or a professional, and have them read and edit. Failing that, read it aloud to yourself and edit for rhythm at a minimum. Tracking plot points and story arcs is harder when you know what's going on, but if you can, read from scratch and track your plot externally to make sure you don't leave loose ends.

@vahnj ... I think that scares me a little. =x.x= Feels good, but still scary.

"However, we must be careful not to idolize decentralization as a complete and utter force of good. Like democracy, and equality, if not matched with a decent structure or hierarchy, it eventually erodes coordination, and then motivation, until the eventual collapse of the network. So we must be wise, when designing our rules, to strike a strong balance between decentralization and meritocracy, always testing and measuring our assumptions."

@vahnj ... is it bragging to say I'm probably steel/dragon or steel/psychic, according to that chart?

Worse, is it wrong?
