Crisis averted! I found the bottle in a box of art books. Repeat: the bottle of ink has been located.
Foreshadowing in real life is the worst - I just watched my baby kitty boy bat a bottle of fountain pen ink off the shelf and start playing with it. The bottle is plastic and I took it away immediately… the problem is THERE USED TO BE A SECOND BOTTLE OF INK THERE.

SPFBO XI - Second Update (Jack's Batch)

Speculative fiction book reviews.

That feeling when you’re deliberately relaxing but you still feel like you should be writing. (What I’m saying is ‘Guilt, it’s time for you to take a break too.’)

We have some deeply petty and childish people who want us to treat them like they are the adults in the room and the best thing we can do right now is point that out. It chips away at their perceived power.
It all comes down to where I'm willing to provide free content and eyeball time. With the disheartening changes to policy from Meta and Zuck's willingness to embrace fascism if it increases share prices, it's time to stop.
