How to work through those sluggish writing weeks with low wordcount and why having a writing habit is key especially then - and how creativity is more like a complex biological system than math. Also my first mention of the mutated robin that hangs around here, about Hopeful Monsters - both the evolutionary theory and my story (which you can find here: https://jeffekennedy.com/hopeful-monsters/). Photo is Jackson on David's lap in the new recliner. Jackson loves to sleep at an angle, paws down, so this new set up gets big points from him.
