“Fantasy books feel so empty lately.”

Not indie fantasy.

“Everyone’s just trying to rewrite ACOTAR.”

Not indie authors.

“No one’s writing anything new!”

Indie authors are.

hey w how trad pub is likely going to be pulling back on books by marginalized authors, now more than ever, please get over whatever roadblock exists in your mind that keeps you from branching out to indie books. if the trad space starts to look dire soon (and it will), this is gonna be the solution

Tell me why the ONE day the Kiddo sleeps in, the ONE day I could have made myself a large beautiful coffee and drink it with no interruptions, is the ONE FUCKING DAY I have to fast for labs 😤😤😤

New patient appointments always make me feel like I have to have the best most correct words to get doctors to listen to me, but that was not the case here. My new doctor here in Australia is so sweet and let me take my time and fumble my words and she still took me seriously 😭😭😭

You ever have those moments when you’re trying to make sense of something but the scenario you come up with is actually terrifying and now you’re convinced it’s true? 🙃

Why the Kiddo is mad at me today: because he woke up too early and couldn’t fall back asleep 😒

To be fair, he’s mad at himself too but holy shit we are on the strugs bus this morning

Cleaned up and rearranged the Kiddo’s room. He’s been playing with his toys instead of his phone or Switch because now he remembers he has them. Huzzah, a win!

…but why does he have to pick the loudest early in the mornings? Lolsob

I can hear the Kiddo eating his Pringles from the other room. My misophonia is STRONG today 😅
November 9, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Kiddo was eating spicy chips with me, drank all his water, and said “oh no! Zero percent water!” And ran to ask for a refill of water 🤣

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

Trying to remind myself I can “start over” at any time.

I don’t have to wait until a new year, or a new month, or a new week, or a new morning.

I can just start again.
