I haven't gotten up before 5:00 AM since I worked opening shift at a cafe. Today, I urged my aging body out of bed at 4:30 AM to board a train full of strangers. We commiserated over coffee, talked about books, got really deep into pagan mysticism, and wrote a ton of words. It was… Continue reading NaNoWriMo 2019: The Great Train Write-in and Powell’s Book Haul
