A Rec, as 2019 Begins!

[jedibuttercup]

So, 2018 was a pretty damn exhausting year for me. There was a significant uptick in stress as a result of several time- and energy-consuming RL situations, mostly family-related, and (as you may have noticed) that more or less wiped out my energy for online activities as well. Pretty much the only times I managed to post something were when I grabbed a deadline to give myself an excuse to make the time; I wanted to do more, but ... *shrug*

I have better hopes for 2019, though, with the worst part of the various RL messes behind me. And 2018 did end on an up-tick, at least! Part of which was an absolutely amazing 32k-word Yuletide gift.

If you're at all interested in the 2017 King Arthur movie, or Arthurian mythology in general, and you have a few hours to kill, please check it out and give the author some well-deserved love:
