“But when we crave power over life - endless wealth, unassailable safety, immortality - then desire becomes greed. And if knowledge allies itself to that greed, then comes evil. Then the balance of the world is swayed, and ruin ways heavy in the scale.”

I am seriously loving this going to bed at 7:30 pm and getting up at 7:30 am thing I've got going on.

Having a day... a very fragrant day.

First, a glass jar of chili oil was dropped and shattered across the kitchen floor. Second, a full bottle of caramel flavouring was dropped and splashed across the kitchen floor.
Our house smells like the holidays and travel.

Well... it appears as though I have just finished my next book.
This one is quite a departure as it's sort of a horror / mythology novel. A bit different from my young reader fantasy books ;-).

Fingers crossed that I will get this thing available for the public this year. Whew!

A heavily tattoo’d guy (with his wife) smiled at me today and said hi (at the county fair) and for a moment I forgot that this was in the south where that’s perfectly normal. 🥰

We finished the new season of #Wednesday on @netflix.com and I'm gutted that we have to wait so long for the next one.
I miss the days of seasons of 20+ episodes of shows.
