I see I've gotten some new followers, so hello! I guess it's time to do another intro post! 👋

✨I'm a YA & NA fantasy writer. My current WIP is full of demons and pretty dresses, and everyone is anxious and queer.

✨I, too, am queer and full of anxiety (and caffeine, usually).

I'm supporting in a health class again this semester and it's going to be uncomfortable to count how many of the teacher's slides need to be revised.

I do want to remind folks today that I would guess at least half of the horrors people are posting about in the SAVE Act?

Already law in the much of south. They know it works because they did it to Black communities & everyone shrugged and made jokes about how we voted for every natural disaster.
