Right down to the wire but got my Christmas cross stitching done!! Forgot to take pics of a lot of it but I thought this one came out super cute 😊

Spent the last two days doing very little and finally, for the first time in weeks, felt comfortable enough to do some writing. I love having the mental space to write, to organize, to tidy, to clean, to read.

Ok that's pretty cool. My sister made this for me, super cute, super awesome!

Thinking hard about submitting to this. Bare minimum, it's got me writing, so I'll take the win either way.

Hello, comics folks! The 2024 Comics Advocacy Group Mini Grants are officially open!

I'm currently reading the book Hazardous Spirits by Anbara Salam, and I'm pretty into it -- although I can't tell if I'm into it because it's actually good or I'm just like, "Where is this going? This is going to be a train wreck, isn't it? Well, I have to read until the train wreck."

Me to teens: Draw! Write! Make zines! Make comics! Do your own thing! Creativity is precious and valuable all on its own!

Me to my work: Well, this is kind of cringe. Better burn it and then hide in a hole for 12 hours.

Glad I took time to recover. By the time I went back out, it was obvious the kids who were here were having a great time. And we had a large influx of pp who came for the pizza and movie and stayed to play the other games. We even had quite a few at the Magic: The Gathering event!

The most heartbreaking part of librarianship is pouring everything you have into a program only to have a lackluster community response. I spent MONTHS working on this teen gaming program, and 40m in, we have like 8 participants. I am working so hard not to cry in front of my staff.

You may not want to eat while you read this.

here are some guidelines:
- preference for short pieces: max word count is 5,000 but the shorter the better. so rare that the longer submissions justify their length
- really not into "MFA realism", particularly of a North American kind (will expand if asked)
