2 more dayjob days to Christmas

The selkies novel trudges on. It's just applying bottom to seat on a regular basis at this stage. I wouldn't call it a 'death march', but it's definitely a bit, you know, sloggy.

All the short stories I owe in January are tantalising me over the Christmas/New Year horizon. I'm looking forward to them; they're so...short. And different from each other. *whispers* I am a leetle bit over selkies.
