I have two creatives inside me: the one who wants to keep things secret until it's ready to be shared, and the other constantly craving to spoil everything about it before I even start working on it

I've been quiet on Bluesky lately. To explain:

I'm preparing for the new year, enjoying the holidays, AND I literally just completely finished writing a poetry collection! Might finish another collection before or just after 2026 begins, depends on how things go!😁✍️
