  • IWSG February

    Besides writing what other creative outlets do you have? Oy. This is not going to be a paragraphy thing, but more listy. Some of these I’ve done for years, and others I’ve only started trying out. Some items I’m half-way decent at, others I don’t spend enough time or dedication on to turn out more…

  • Flailing

    A few years ago I’d constructed some decorative bead strings for some friends of mine in the SCA. I’d given them out and had three left and with the destruction of one that hung on my purse, I was left with two that just kinda sat there until the other day I was seized with…
