Sirenia Digest #98 went out to subscribers this morning.
Cooler and overcast so far today, but yesterday was nice. Spooky and I had a walk around the neighborhood, something I only very rarely do. Indeed, I've lived here, in this House built in 1875, almost six years now, and I am ashamed to say that my understanding of the neighborhood's geography is murky. I couldn't draw you a map. Anyway, there were flowers and the beginnings of leaves, a reassuring willow and genuinely warm sunlight. Here in mid April, Providence is managing a decent bit of March weather. There are photos behind the cut, courtesy Nemo:
I am looking oddly disproportionate.
The house I chose for Imp's place of residence, second-floor apartment. I've never been inside.

I'm not entirely well. Partly, it's a nasty bit of Seroquel withdrawal. And Kathryn is of the opinion that the rest of my discomfort and exhaustion is simply post-novel decompression/ennui. After all that stress and all that pushing myself, it's over and out of here.
Until it comes back.
Today, I have signature pages, and work for Subterranean Press and PS Publishing, and...other stuff. I'm not in the mood to sign my name.
Meanwhile,
Aunt Beast

As do I, and thank you.
Glad you like them; it was a fine walk.
I'm glad to hear it's warming up for you a little.
Indeed. I'd passed the nethermost end of my rope.
The little waterproof camera does such an amazing job capturing colors. I'm looking forward to using it to photograph many more flowers in the future.
Was almost to the end (survey section) when I got bumped off line. Hope it took. Will try again in a few minutes.
