The Against the Day Deathmarch, Week 15
I’m chasing a tangled ball of yarn, I am — still a little bit behind, not quite a week’s worth. Seems like most folks who were likewise lagging have now caught up, which is kind of exciting. Infuriating, too. But … Read on Macduff...
The Against the Day Deathmarch, Week 14

The Against the Day Deathmarch, Week 8

The Against the Day Deathmarch, Week 7
