NaNoWriMo 2023 is as crazy as ever. We're a lot more people participating this year in the Swisswrimo Discord than last year. The mood is good, everyone is writing like the world's end is near. I'm with my friend as usual and we comment on each other's story daily. That's why my word count is currently up on 45k. And that's insane. My story comes a long great. I'm so in love with the universe I'm creating. BUT . . . is has been a long time coming and I want to tell you now. My story I'm writing is not going to become a McDanno AU as I've planned it but it's going to become my very first orignial story, and I decided that I'm going to publish my story. The idea, the plot is great. I want it out in the world. I don't listen to the voices who try to tell me how difficult it is to get a book published. I'm doing it anyway and I'll find a way :-)
My first book is in the making, guys. I'm so excited. I changed all the characters, the location, everything. It's now a story about merpeople and the wonders of love. And my heart will always belong to Steve and Danny. I'll be back with new McDanno stories, once this huge project is done. Or maybe I'll need a break in betweeen, but the boys are forever tight to my soul.

the end of wolf 359's special episode Change Of Mind needs to be studied. they knew what they were doing, setting Lovelace's coming-to at the height of Paradise Valley. and i am so, so head over heelsfor this podcast. i've listened to it so many times. today, i relistened to Change of Mind, then replayed the end at least 10 times listening to it. GOING CRAZY

Élisabeth Sonrel: Virgen con el Niño entre Santa Genoveva y Santa Juana de Arco
"But what in fact is meant by repentance? It is normally regarded as sorrow for sin, a feeling of guilt, a sense of grief and horror at the wounds we have inflicted on others and on ourselves. Yet such a view is dangerously incomplete. Grief and horror are indeed frequently present in the experience of repentance, but they are not the whole of it, nor even the most important part. We come closer to the heart of the matter if we reflect on the literal sense of the Greek term for repentance, metanoia. This means “change of mind”: not just regret for the past, but a fundamental transformation of our outlook, a new way of looking at ourselves, at others and at God— in the words of The Shepherd of Hermas, “a great understanding.” A great understanding— but not necessarily an emotional crisis. Repentance is not a paroxysm of remorse and self-pity, but conversion, the recentering of our life upon the Holy Trinity.
As a “new mind,” conversion, recentering, repentance is positive, not negative. In the words of St John Climacus, “Repentance is the daughter of hope and the denial of despair.” It is not despondency but eager expectation; it is not to feel that one has reached an impasse, but to take the way out. It is not self-hatred but the affirmation of my true self as made in God’s image. To repent is to look, not downward at my own shortcomings, but upward at God’s love; not backward with self-reproach, but forward with trustfulness. It is to see, not what I have failed to be, but what by the grace of Christ I can yet become."
Bp. Kallistos Ware: The Inner Kingdom

Listening to change of mind and crying about Lovelace caring so much and how now she's trying so hard to be distant from the Heph crew because last time she cared this much everyone died
