No lie, I've emailed my provincial NDP three times telling them to run on trains lol

Do you see an eventuality in which the provincial NDP ever form government again? Or do we go back to Liberal/Conservative different colours/same policies again?

Ending this on an *exciting* note! Now feels like a good as time as any, to announce that the sequel of Revenge of Captain Vessia, is called On Stranger Shores, and will be coming (probably) in the summer!
And as a *tiny* treat/tease, here's a snippet of the cover in progress!

But also, *you*. Yes you reading this. Listening to me badger on about my queer vampirates over and over, listening to me yell about trans rights, and taking a chance on me while enduring all the troubles of our current day and age. It's hard to give a dam about anything when it's like this.

None of it would've been possible without @catrector.com, who was my guide and confidant throughout the entire process. She is my steward, my guiding star, and my partner in crime. I can't thank the universe enough for her. (>^.^)>

People have told me about how it's changed their lives, how it's their favourite book, (and a few about how it wasn't for them lol) about how much my love for what I do was clear in every word I wrote. It brought forth a new chapter of my life, and frankly, it changed everything for the better.

Small rural libraries are sometimes their community's only access to the wider world, because not everyone has power or internet or books, or even a *home*.

Please continue advocating for your local libraries. Sometimes the benefits are life changing, but you don't see for people you don't know.
