This isn't a microblog for status updates so much as it's meant to be a regular check-in, both for myself to clarify what I'm focused on and for others, inspired by /now.

Education
For the winter term I'm taking Payroll Accounting online via community college and also working through a Certified Organizational Specialist training.

Writing
I'm playing around with the idea of writing a chapter book about a girl from a magical world who has to attend a normal middle school for my kid, since she's going to be attending middle school soon enough. Otherwise it's fanfic all the way down lately.

Reading
Family bedtime reading is working our way through the Percy Jackson books. Besides that, I'm currently auditing a bunch of my books, trying to make enough room on the bookshelves, and otherwise my reading focus is on books about poetry and songwriting. The stack in my bedroom includes: Madness, Rack and Honey by Mary Ruefle, How to Write a Song That Matters by Dar Williams, Glitter in the Blood by Mindy Nettifee and as always going back to the lectures of Robin Blaser and Jack Spicer.

Watching
We just finished watching the new Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and are currently working through the backlog of seasons of Jet Lag: the Game on Nebula.
