Would you take a second corgi a third time? 😊🫣
Two majestic corgis standing in the snow next to one another. One is fluffy and orange. The other is black, tan, and white. They carry smug expressions and adorable ears.

Ways I've made my corgi angry:

She hurt herself and is not allowed to hop up into her chair.

This. Is. An. Outrage.

We dared take her to the vet and the vet dared thwart her chair-sitting plans.

The mood in the dwelling is tense.
An orange corgi stands in the grass holding a deflated ball which looks like, at one time, it was as big as her.

Today, I wish for you the kind of peaceful rest / nap Wolf is having.

Yes. The little snores are audible.

#corgi
A corgi with brown and black fur rests in a fluffy dog bed. His head is smooshed into a pink blankie, while his legs are splayed in front of him. His eyes are closed and the tip of his tongue is sticking out of his smiling mouth. He looks peaceful.

In honour of wild and crazy speculation with @thejordonbrown.bsky.social, @dropouttv.bsky.social, and the incredible @vicmmic.bsky.social . This is certainly a foreshadowing for Taskmaster. Definitely maybe probably certainly sorta 😅.

Another amazing episode!

My brain: TASKMASTER SEAL!

I once rolled five natural 1s in thirteen rolls.

Makes sense that my first roll at #gauntletatthegarden was also a one.

Can I use a luck point?

Goodbye, NYC. We had a great time!
A photograph taken from the lower bowl of Madison Square Garden, a sporting venue. The venue is lit in mostly blue, while the giant hanging TV show seven people. The people are sitting in an illuminated circle in the middle playing dnd. In the image, Brennan Lee Mulligan, Emily Axford, Lou Wilson, Siobhan Thompson, Zac Oyama, Brian Murphy, and Ally Beardsley.

It’s -30*C. Oh noo… not the perfect introvert opportunity to make hot chocolate and write all daaayyyy - oh nooooo

Also, enjoy this obligatory corgi photo.

#amwriting #introvert #writingcommunity
An orange corgi dog with a white belly lays on her side. Her feet are against a wall. Her mouth is wide open in a big goofy happy yawn while her tongue is draped to the side in a pose that says “I am a lazy happy dog.”

I present to you, Wolf.

Named after the terrifying villain Star Wolf. Dastardly. Cunning. Fearsome.

And, snuggling his fluffy new blanket with his safety Chewbacca.

#corgi
A black and brown corgi lays in a grey dog bed. Also in the dog bed are a pink fluffy blanket, a Yoda stuffy toy, and a Chewbacca stuffy toy. From the dog’s expression, one might think the dog was about to have a nap in his very safe place. In the background, parts of a kitchen sneak through the image.

Um, Actually - no T in Schulz.

don’t ask me why I know that and have strong feelings about it… 😂😭😂

Things my corgi has barked at today:

A pillow.

A lamp.

The pedestrians who dared cross our sidewalk.

Our bed. Our entire bed.

#corgi #dogsky
A very fluffy orange corgi with a big dog smile and perky ears looking straight into the camera. The vibe is delight.

We all always have three drinks on the go… right?

And only ever finish half before sticking them in the fridge?

The men of our D&D party think this is weird. The rest of us vehemently argue this is extremely normal.

#drinkgoblin #dnd
Three open drinks sit upon a grey counter in a neat row. To the left, a Diet Coke in a can. In the middle, an orange Gatorade (zero sugar) half consumed. On the right, a grey mug full of matcha tea.

Can someone please explain to my corgi that it will continue being -34 no matter how many times she checks outside?

My shelf is a #Kobo! Here is my current read, Yumi and the Nightmare Painter, and my last read, Fate Breaker, by @victoriaaveyard.bsky.social

I am one of those people who can only read one book at a time. How many books do you all have on the go?

#FantasyIndiesDecember #booksky
A screenshot of two books. The first, on the left, is Yumi and the Nightmare Painter by Brandon Sanderson. It's cover features two characters reaching for each other as they float over a moon. Beneath the cover, there is text that says 11% read. The second, on the right is Fate Breaker by Victoria Aveyard. The cover features a sword, held by two hands. One of the hands is on the handle, one grasps the blade. Beneath this cover is text that says finished.

This is my Druid’s panther wild shape. Very scary.

+13 to intimidation? Roll with advantage?

We all play ball by going to get the ball for the dog, right?

#corgi #dogsky
Yes, that’s #dimension20 in the background.

It’s -15 Celsius and the dog is at the back door.

Maybe, this time, she really does have to go potty. Maybe, this time, she really does need out.

Unable to ignore her fuzzy little face, I faithfully let her out.

Nope.

She wanted to scream at the world and make me catch her.

#corgi
A corgi standing in snow. She is fluffy and orange with a white chest. The look on her face says, “you need to catch me, I will not willingly go inside, and I think this is hilarious.”

I drew my husband’s dnd character. A monk named Spin.

He’s. The. Cutest.

My beta-reader appears underwhelmed by my current draft.

Do you think it’s the pacing?

Everyone, meet Princess Daisy.

An orange corgi, laying upside down, asleep. Her legs are up in the air. She is relaxed and comfortable. She lays upon a round dog bed.

A fact I recently made up in my mind is that my D&D party needed to see my druid's mini-elk wild shape.

You see, my druid is still learning wild shape and becomes the corgi version of all the animals.

I am so pleased to deliver.

Et voilà.

I suppose if my description is going to be 'corgi-wrangler,' I should post an obligatory corgi photo.

You now behold Star Wolf. Slayer of naps. Snuggler of humans. And, most dastardly villain in the nation.

All shall love him and despair.
A corgi dog lays in his bed, unbothered by the world around him. He is upside down, paws strewn in all directions. His tongue bleps from his mouth in carefree bliss.

The newbie steps forward, takes a millennial pause, and offers a small wave.

"oh, uh-hi there... I like writing fantasy stories.

I play a warlock/bard at the D&D table. Axford is my favourite TTRPG player.

And, on instagram I have a lego stormtrooper that has adventures.

Want to be friends?"
