Is it another Ice Age? No that's just me standing in the freezer to stay chill.

So while we're trying to beat that heat, how's those stories coming along? For this check-in, please include any help you think you might need or want (beta, research, cheers of encouragement, Pinch-Hitter, an actual iceberg to come by and keep you cool, et cetera) and anything else you want really. Just so we know you're still in it to win it ~
