I got to 1600 words today! Guess I moved all the way up to Actually Writing at some point. 😊

Total catch of the day:
1 Pike
4 Trout
20 Minnows

For 33 points. Whee!

I am at 2 Trout and 12 Minnows so far today, and 878 words, so I've move up a little from Just Enough To Catch Fish territory.

But I am taking a break now to run some errands, the first of which is "print applications for mail-in ballots at the library."

Me, starting out on this book: "Okay, I'm going to make a really detailed outline for this book because that way I won't have to do as much revising at the end."
Me, writing this book: "Eh this scene would probably be better if I showed these random hassles instead of just describing character as hassled. MEH, I can fix it in rewrites. MOVING ON."

I have relocated to Pretend Coffee Shop to Not Really Write Much Of Anything, instead of doing it at my desktop.

look the shitty techbros peddling apps that claim to determine personality traits via facial analysis have not reinvented PHRENOLOGY

they have reinvented PHYSIOGNOMY

phrenology is analyzing head bumps, physiognomy is looking at faces

it's a TOTALLY DIFFERENT pseudoscience and just because its main purpose is also to justify racism and likewise has no basis in reality is no reason to conflate them, okay?

I don't feel like writing today, but today is Fishing Competition. So today I am the Master of Writing Just Enough to Catch Fish.

I have caught 4 minnows and written 126 words.

@vicorva I think we are fishing on Friday? I figured I would send a reminder now just in case you want to but didn't remember. 😊

I think @aldersprig and I are doing fishing today!

I am also supposed to do day job for 5 hours, so we'll see how much actual fishing I get done. One minnow so far!

So this was my total!

2 Pike (!)
1 Carp
1 Trout
18 Minnows

For 37 points.

I need to add one more minnow to my pic to make it final!

Wrote 1500 words of Demon's Alliance overall. I am content.

Apparently ALL of the #SoulScribes fishies wanted to show up to have their portraits done! o_o

I am kind of side-eyeing Mastodon for not letting me unmark media as "sensitive" if there's a content warning. 9_9

Updated fishie pic!

I had to take an hour off from fishing in order to attend a work meeting, but I am back to it now! *\o/*

Catch of the day so far, in visual form!

Caught my first pike of the day! Aw yissss.

I should doodle fish like V suggested. 🤔

Is today a fishing day? Who is fishing?

@aldersprig @vicorva @anke @wsteria

I'm busy trying to get a work thing done and so I have deliberately allowed a few fish to get away.

It is so hard to see that bar pop up and not jump on it tho. 😓

Tricking myself into working on Demon's Alliance by leaving the fishing window open and visible. Like you do.
