There’s a beach near where you are, between Liscannor and Lahinch that I referenced in the nonfiction contest a couple of months ago. If you see dudes out surfing off those beaches, one of them might be my youngest brother. His partner was one of the managers in the hotel in Doolin.
I’m glad you’re getting good weather. There was a wind warning for Clare and Galway on the day ye landed.

Stephen (our driver on Inis Mor) said he swims at the beach all year round even in winter!

Congratulations, Catriona!

I clicked on this, but I've nothing to report. I'm still waiting for the last part of chapter 6 of my current WIP to be critiqued by my critique partner. Otherwise, all is well.

Writing scenes for my historical fiction. I’m realizing that I may actually be done with the first draft, but they’re all buried in the POV documents.




A quick meme I made.

Starfield -- has a companion that brings his daughter along with him onboard your ship, where it engages in pitch battle where everyone could die suddenly.

My WiP -- Entire mercenary crew saddled with an alien kid that snuck onboard, who has a tracker gel in his head that pings his location to the big bad.

Just found it weird that I'm looking at Starfield's idea as unrealistic, yet here I am doing kinda the same thing. xD I reckon only difference is that the alien kid in my story has a reason for being there, and he does actively try to help the crew.

After 70, everything leaks.

Newsflash from my agent this evening:

My advance for Blue Bottle Tree earned out in eight months, so today I got a check for subsidiary rights, and will get a royalty check soon that amounts to two-thirds of the original advance.

I think maybe I'm a professional writer.

If I make it out that way in the spring will you buy me lunch?

Depends on how expensive your taste in restaurants is.

I'm not going to post in this thread just because I clicked on it.

You are imagining this.

Before I die I must return to McGann’s in Doolin for the carrot parsnip soup

 

[CatrionaGrace]

For me, it is cullen skink in this little cafe in Lochcarron, Scotland.

Had to look it up. Soup with smoked haddock, potatoes, and onions. sounds good!

We ate at a place called “The Bar” on Inis Mor. They had two things on the menu: vegetable soup and ham-cheese-onion sandwiches. We ordered 4 soups and 3 sandwiches since my sister-in-law didn’t want a sandwich. The soup comes and it turns out what they called vegetable soup was potato-leek soup. “Ew,” my sister-in-law says. “I can’t eat this.”

I gave her my sandwich and I ate two soups. It was delicious! And it came with the most wonderful brown bread.

For some reason, I can't stop picturing the Seinfeld Soup Nazi with a broad Glasgow accent. (Don't ask me why, I've never been to Glasgow. Think Billy Connolly).

Awa' wi' 'ee, ye big wee scunner! Nae mair soup for 'ee, ye ken?

(I probably got it wrong somewhere, but I hope not)...

And you a successful author and all. Actually basic bar food is my go-to, especially out there.

Family Thanksgiving yesterday was delightful. Today has been peaceful. Happy holiday to Americans and members in the rest of the world as well.

 

[Louanne Learning]

I’ve seen signs here referencing American Thanksgiving

 

[CatrionaGrace]

Hard to not appreciate a holiday devoted to reflecting on life's blessings and eating special food.

You'll find all kinds of Americana round these parts. We're largely partial to such things. Mind you don't get run over by the throngs rushing for the Black Friday deals, which is a relatively new addition. We even tried cheerleaders for a while until the rain and sleet on a mid-winter evening in Cavan for the Junior B football championship put paid to that. There's even a recorded instance of someone pleading the 5th during an investigation into an alleged criminal matter. While we have a right to maintain silence, it's not granted by the 5th Amendment to the American Constitution.

Grr, trying to find a good voice from the CapCut text-to-speech. I don't want it to sound like an actual human ('cause, well, it's a text-to-speech software, and I'm just typing in the words the program will read out) but I don't want it to sound painful.
