A2: My biggest victory was getting my reading ability back and being a judge for the book of the year for the Indieverse Awards! Also, in a tie with that was releasing my first short story collection and having a glowing review of it in the Seaboard Review of Books! #WeeknightWriters

Hiii! I’m Cait and I’m so close to tightening up my first draft of Hot Wings and Sauciness, the space opera romcom with the meet awkward of the 25th century!
My week is completely craptastic! But I’m glad to catch the second hour of #WeeknightWriters!

It’s been a really emotional day, but one bright spot was that my new treadmill came in. No frills or anything. I just need something to help me move my leggies. Beside the treadmill is a gliding elliptical, which is really great for loosening my connective tissues. Fibro fitness is challenging.

I write my books using my meat brain. I don’t use generative AI.
I only use assistive tech like dictation or read aloud accessibility functions. They don’t make up content. They just put down what I say or read it back to me.

I’ve never had a book of mine posted about live as the reader was reading it!
Ok! Next in #BookSky #BookJoy I’m going to livepost this delightful looking collection by the lovely @caitgauthor.bsky.social - I am not nervous doing this because I adore and trust Cait as a writer.
Also picture taken earlier and I’m sure she’ll recognize hospital carpet. (I’m fine.)

My da is in the hospital awaiting an operation after being rushed to the ER. He’s still got that Irish optimism, so that’s good. But 2026 can already kiss my ass.

I’m a little blue. Very stressful family health stuff being stressful, and all of my Christmas decorations are down today. I miss my tree already. It helped.

I sorta like how my Rudolf has a sceptical/unimpressed expression. As if he’s thinking, “You want me to what after treating me like crap?”
And my snowman’s hat has little glitter flecks. #Crafts #PolymerClay

I played with clay! Their skin is actually a bright yellow-green in person, so maybe they’re alien Christmas elves? Would fit my brand as a spec fic author! Why can’t aliens make toys, right?

I once referred to a character as a wonton woman. To be fair, she was a little dumpling. 😳
What's a memorable typo you made (and hopefully caught before publishing)?

I like to hope I’m an authors-author. Like, I love it when other authors succeed, and I love building community with other alphabet arrangers.

My house is beginning to smell like #Hogmanay! Steak pie filling is simmering on the stovetop. Later, Bruce will prepare the neeps and tatties.
THEN WE SHALL RELEASE THE CRANACHAN!!!

2025 highlights, last day! Remember when I said I had a cool reading assignment? I couldn’t tell you what it was, but now I can! I was a judge for the 2025 Indieverse Awards Book of the Year panel! It was a great experience! And the winning book was well deserved! I highly recommend it!
