But I might have a crush on the Frankenstein’s “monster” in it.

I’m more frustrated because my body is chaos, external factors in my life are chaotic, and I just want a few hours a week to polish up my first draft. But my writing keeps being the lowest priority right now.
So, GRRRR! #SpoonieAuthChat

I swear, this is true. I got my first publishing contract almost ten years ago because the publishing rep liked my fashionista dalek cosplay at a local con. Then I accidentally blurted out a pitch using my autistic blurty trait.

Holy stars, I finally made a #WeeknightWriters! My #FirstDraftFall is to finally get a beta reader draft of Hot Wings and Sauciness! This meet-awkward spawns the space opera romance I sorely needed. Also, the FMC is autistic, disabled, and in her 50s! No idea how I came up with her. *coughs*
