FEMA chief’s swaggering bravado hasn’t been seen during flooding disaster in Texas

After deadly Texas floods, where is FEMA?
After deadly flash floods in Texas we should have expected FEMA to be highly visible and active, but why when President Trump wants to shutter the agency?Jarvis DeBerry (MSNBC)
I've been working on my first self published novel as part of a book series penned by ten different authors.
I usually work on my books, on and off, over several years. But this project has a tight deadline. So, very quickly, I changed aspects of one character as she was originally coming across too bitter. I switched to multi-person first person POV (from 3rd person limited) when about two-thirds was written (I didn't feel the connection between character and reader was strong enough). And I've already done about five edits on this thing.
Yesterday I completed edit number six, doing my usual thing of changing the font (this time to one no one would print a book in), and both deleted and added text. I know this story so well, I also caught some behavioural differences in a couple of the characters. They're now fixed.
I'm reading the last two chapters this morning (the ones that have seen the least edits) before I send this off to my designated beta readers.
My obsession with this has kicked it into shape sooner than I imagined. There are a couple of last minute characters who need further development in my next (and final) rewrites before it's off to the editor.
So, just as Halloween approaches, watch out for this year's instalment of the Haunted Hearts Series of MM Horror/Romance novels. The covers have all been done and they look fab.
BTW, the image in this graphic is not the cover. Cover reveals will come soon.

Help me fix a a GTK bug.

As a reference counted type, it isn't too surprising that the stack trace doesn't indicate where the bug is.
Does the stack trace give any indication of what the array was being used for?

A imagem é uma caricatura que retrata uma figura com cabelo loiro, vestindo um terno preto e gravata vermelha, em uma postura de agachamento. A figura tem uma expressão facial exagerada, com a boca aberta em um grito, e um diálogo em um balão de fala acima dela que diz "GRRR! WOOF! GRAUR!". Ao lado da figura, há um ícone de emoji de cocô sorridente. A imagem é assinada por "BRASIL247" e "ARERIR 2017" no canto inferior esquerdo. A imagem parece ser uma sátira política, com elementos humorísticos e caricaturais.
