Personal

It’s November, so the kettle needs to be on 24/7

It is NaNoWriMo time, the time we must write an awful lot, and we usually need coffee and/or tea to get by. And I have coffee and tea to recommend.

First, tea! I heard Adagio Teas allows fandom blends, and so I started working on my own blends for NaNoWriMo. I have two high caffeine blends (Morning Pages and Sprint!), two green tea blends (Reread and Writer’s Block), and two herbal blends (Dream Storm and Earned Rest.) I’m fond of the Writer’s Block and the Morning Pages, myself, and the Sprint! tea is a smoky blend not for the faint of heart.

ISBW blends at Adagio Teas

Full disclosure: I will get points toward more tea on the site. But the cool thing is that when you make your own blends, you can choose a chari-TEA (hahah) to support with your blend sales. I’ve chosen NaNoWriMo.org. 

Grinding CoffeeI have also been buying a lot of coffee from Grinding Coffee, a black, LGBTQ+ owned coffee small business. I tried it out to support the business, and I kept buying because they have some amazing blends. (I recommend their cold brew blend and their Mexican Chocolate blend.) Now I am an affiliate with them, and you can get a 13% discount with the code MIGHTYMUR.

These are companies I use frequently, and I fully endorse.

WMUR – Nonlinear Writing – Rerun

Distractions – Rerun

Should have run November 6. Considering how distracted/low energy I’ve been this week, I figured getting back to the daily show with a distractions episode was appropriate. Catching up with a lot of episodes today.

My wordcount- …not 10k
