Call Me Coward, Not Ishmael
Genuinely I'm at a bit of a loss right now. Not a loss. Let me explain. I have entries for all upcoming challenges and unofficial challenges (besides Tim's and Leslie's, actually, glad I remembered those), and find myself with no real WIP really. Well, that's not true because I have a few shelved WIP that I am sitting on because I don't want to dive into them just yet. Call me a coward, not Ishmael! I don't care.

Have You Seen My Dust Collection?. Top Story - June 2026.
A large curio cabinet with glass walls stands in my living room. Inside it lie memories of years gone by. Each trinket is a trip. Each art figurine is a piece of time. Sculpted statues, things of historic beauty, stand silently, waiting to be admired anew and given purpose.
