I live in an old house. It was built some time in the 1910s. I like the charm and character of old houses. They have details and accents you won't find anywhere else. The owners, though, I'd like to smack them upside the head.
I'm apparently not very good at setting up new habits. I am attemping the 100 Days to Offload in order to keep me writing. I'm going to make an attempt at NaNoWriMo (or its community replacement Writing Month). However, I've already tried Inktober on several occasions and never got past day 10.
