(what is 'Wordapalooza' you ask? @InkwellsAnvils 's annual write-a-thon right after Easter where you take a break from your main WIP and work on anything that excites the Muse. And I am so excited to add more to this project that has swiftly stolen my heart)

Once again in a binge-reading phase. Checking out 4 audiobooks at once from the library like a covetous, hoarding book wyrm. Either these will all get returned unread, or I will do nothing but devour them all within two weeks. There is no in between.
