I’ve also been working on sketching up ideas for a “big project” that I am going to call “The project that can’t t be named” aka TPTCBN. I may have more to say about it eventually, and it will take a lot of me time but for now it’s one of those things I can’t go into, sadly! Continue reading “planning lots of things” »
