Hello. Welcome! Now, about me:
🇨🇦
🐲I write Fantasy!🐲(my characters don't die, they just wish they could)
My love of cats is inverse to my love of people
I'm an OR nurse. Great at parties! Describing necrotizing fasciitis is always a crowd-pleaser! 😁
Please share! Retweet!
The number's legit. I called it before posting. 🥰🥰🥰

Because we might need a light in these bleak times. We need ... toe beans. And the lofty Viscount du Lilas obliges.

Ok, folks. I get it, but maaaybe we could choose something other than fire? It's been known to get out of hand lately. Perhaps ramming them with a large, awkwardly-shaped steel vehicle ...?
Oh, wait, those also catch fire.
Back to the drawing board.

OMG! It's my new kitty, but from another timeline! 🙀
Any tips for keeping a Siamese happy?

I CAN FINALLY PARTICIPATE IN CATURDAY AGAIN!
Here you'll see The Viscount du Lilas enjoying some snuggle-naps, while I attempt to play Grim Dawn. Thank God I've got long arms!
Writing is gonna be a challenge. 🤔

Let's see what happens if we put the toy in the bag of catnip overnight? 🤔
(I couldn't keep the camera on him! 🤯)

My new boy. Only 4 hours in my possession.
Oh, my heart!

Well, I have a new man in my crazy single cat lady life!
Meet Christophe, Viscount du Lilas.
(We're working on the press kit, but the was a lot of sniffing. SO MUCH SNIFFING)

Ummmm ... I wonder why Canadians don't want to travel to the U.S. 😱
(It's just politics, right? Right?)
🤦‍♀️

Here they are. Books with my stories in them! The One-shot Anthology series features stories written in 24 hrs on a theme represented in their titles. It's been a real joy & challenge to contribute. If you love supporting indie spec fic, pick them up on Amazon in print or e-book!🥰

Elon probably spent more farming his PoE character than on child support. Please go back to cheating at video games and leave the rest of us alone. Weirdo.

From: A Mother's Love

“Yer right, there. It weren't yur God.” She paused, thinking. “Funny how ya love Him; makes sense, tho'. He's got a meanness to ‘im. A baked-in cruelty. Likes His Wrath as much as pa liked his drink. Likes to see His children beggin' for His salvation. His love."

Something covered in white that's not snow. G'morning, bluesky. 🥰

Umm ... is it possible that I have a vegetarian fridge vampire? 🧛‍♀️
If I do, I'm going have to crunch the math on my fridge's square footage so I can charge them rent. 👀

Good morning, Bluesky.

For when it gets dark today at 4:30pm:
A happy summer bee just bee-ing herself on some basil flowers.

The incredible bronze sculpture outside the Art Gallery of Ontario. Every time I see it, I still have to touch it to make sure it's not leather. It's astounding.

Soooo, a book for our "interesting times", then?
Or just the White House?
(Do you remember when McConnell was turning splotchy and purple? *shudder*)

Published in 2008, it shows how cruelty, greed and the long game pays off.
The hilarious Thomas Frank is a gem and an oracle (as in: he just pays attention to what's going on around him). Old book tour lectures can be found on YouTube, for those who need a commute listen.
