Pomegranate’s features smoothed again, and for a moment Honeycomb was afraid that she’d fainted once more, but then she opened her eyes, and looked up, and—
And she was not Pomegranate anymore.
“Welcome home, Honeycomb,” the Moon Herself said from Pomegranate’s mouth.
(From "Moongatherer")

We need to figure out a way for one particular historical event to happen. A lot of historical events are happening now, but not the one I have in mind. This one would be of great interest to most people I think.

Finished my Cozy Classic Raglan and got to wear it to the Met for my birthday last weekend! So happy to have a #finishedobject after #knitting on it for so long.

So close to being done knitting my birthday sweater. I gotta knit another inch of ribbing along the bottom hem, and then it'll be ready to block!

Recently started playing "I Was a Teenage Exocolonist" and was like, wow why do I love this so much? Then realized the premise is quite similar to my short story, "Victoria" from ZNB's _Brave New Worlds_. I love seeing themes and motifs that are from my heart out in the wild!!! 😭😭😭🥰🥰🥰

I'm a knitter, not crocheter, but I made this guy and frankly I'm not sure when the last time I felt such joy was.
He is incomplete, and yet the smile he brings to my face is not.

I know everyone says this, but the amount of STUFF libraries have available digitally is just breathtaking. My library system here in Baton Rouge has thousands of Udemy courses available. And they're free! They're so free.
Libraries are cool. Librarians are cool. Support your libraries.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Can’t believe this needs to be said but… downloading ebooks illegally is theft. It’s an author’s livelihood & a lot of authors don’t make much to begin with. There are libraries & authors willing to give free copies if you really can’t afford it. Don’t steal from artists😫.

I saw someone tweet about a way of writing everything at one time--doing a robust outline of a whole book, writing 100 words of every chapter, then 200, then 500. As a result of that writer sharing their process, I've now gotten further than ever before on my novel project. Community matters.

There’s nothing to add to the poetry of the original discovery, photos, and article (next post in thread), but I’ve attempted something.

Recently made a pic of myself with the Stardew Valley character creator (link below). I think I did a pretty good job! What do you think?
