Hi ! I hope you're having a great day!

Writing update:

I have abandoned a few writing projects that weren't giving me joy, and yes it hurt to move them to the 'abandoned' folder, but overall I'm glad I did it. I also put pretty much all my other writing projects on hold for the present so I can devote my full attention to Play With Glass, a novel I really want to write. I am still working on preparing Of Snow and Savanna for publication, however.

Life in general update:

We went to Australia!! And Thailand!! And I got really sick the last full day in Thailand, and three weeks later I'm still recovering. That's my life update, in case you were wondering why this email is so late and why I haven't made any new blog posts (other than cat ones, which will be explained later).

Song recommendation:

I was originally going to put a different song in this section, but after multiple nudges from God I'm going to do a song that I hadn't planned to use until yesterday. Hallelujah Anyway by Rend Collective is one of my favorite songs, and I will admit I need it to remind me sometimes.

Poem or writing excerpt:

alone:

there’s a million things i should be doing right now

a million people i should be helping right now

a million voices clamoring to be heard

besides my own.

leave me alone!

i want to write alone

i want to feel alone

i want to be

alone.

but not really alone.

there’s God.

Art:

So. . . I've decided to share a sneak preview of some of the art for Of Snow and Savanna!! Enjoy!!

Spotlight:

This month's spotlight it the email list/website/book of my friend Vanessa Scott!! You can find her website/email list signup at authorvanessascott.com. And DON'T get me started fangirling about her book, Agents of WRATH, unless you are prepared for me to go on for ages. (WARNING: Fangirling by Anna has been know to make people desire to read the book she is fangirling over. Proceed with caution.)

GO READ IT!! You won't regret it!! (Unless you're like my mom, who is slightly allergic to weirdness. Because it is a bit weird, in the best way possible. I am not liable for any allergic reactions. GET USED TO WEIRD!!)

You can find Agents of WRATH on Amazon here.

I'm also taking the note about Eris's email list out of the bottom section simply because I send out monthly emails instead of fortnightly now. (And that link was out of date.😅) You can find her website/email list here. (That link should work.🤣)

New blog posts:

Save the tigers!

DIY cat toy

Meet the lion that went extinct- the only way we know it ever lived is two teeth! (aka me laughing at the folly of scientists.)

Feliny:

I'm adding ANOTHER section!! Go figure!! This section is for cat-related things.

I recently moved everything from feliny.weebly.com to my website and unpublished the Feliny one. (So there's no point in following that link.) I'm going to (rarely) post cat-related stuff on my blog, so I moved all the blog posts I thought were important to my personal blog. Since I've been sick, travelling, and all-around busy, I haven't posted anything else since my last email.

You can find the Feliny stuff at annakfletcherwriter.weebly.com/feliny now.

The Word:

If you have a request of a verse I should do, feel free to recommend it! You are welcome to download this verse graphic and share it. The KJV version is public domain.

I'd love it if you'd reply and tell me what you think of today's email, how you're doing, and anything else you'd like to share!
