Gwendoline - even as Glenna - runs away. She's a warm-hearted person to her chosen friends/family, but that can't cover her abandonment issues & or excuse what happens when past & present meet. She's always sitting back mentally, reading the situation, ready to bolt. Very self-sabotaging tbh

Sometimes I wonder what the other timeline versions of me are doing. At one point I was a parent. At another I was married. And then somewhere in the midst I just huddled down and just focused on either my art or writing.
To them I send all my love regardless.

Do you think horror helps readers confront something or escape from something? I like the idea that reading is an escape, but that reading horror allows readers to confront fears at a distance #writingq #WritingCommunity

Sovanna is pretty popular in GARNER FOR GOLD, which surprised me! I love her too but that's not who I imagined would rise as the favorite. 💛

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Cleaned my office today (badly needed since it was the catch-all room post move) & it's so cute even though it's bare bones! Lots of potential to make it elegant & unique.

Nonsense commas and sentences that go on forever...& possibly overuse of ellipses 🙄 I catch the majority in the first couple of edits, but I'd like to get out of the habit of drafting so many 💀
