Sometimes being a writer is opening up what you thought was an entirely unused notebook and seeing ONLY THIS and having no GODLY IDEA what you were doing

I can’t express how delighted I am every time I see him napping like this, so I hope sharing a pic will lead to the same emotional response for you.

I knit a Mallorn shawl (www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...) with yarn by @bahyarns.bsky.social.

So today I went and picked up my shawl. I knit it earlier this year and it won second place at this year’s Illinois State Fair. I am officially an award winning knitter, and no, I will never shut up about it.

Sup folks! This year, I gave myself the challenge to write 12 short story drafts in 12 months. Having the goal has really helped me get writing done.

In chatting about it in the @othersidespec.bsky.social subscriber server, I thought it might be fun to share. So welcome to #Writing12in12!

Wasn't expecting my author copy of @heartlines-spec.com to arrive today but here it is! There's always something special about seeing your own words in print.

Today has been a whiplash sort of a day, so this was a good note to end it on.

anyway an important thing to know about my life is that this perfect fluffy lady snores.

Anyway anytime I get emo and vulnerable on main, I feel the need to share a silly picture of a cat so here is my view of Beau when I turned around while playing D&D last night.

Show me a pic on your phone that has your energy, not a selfie

The least shocked. This year was a big album listening year but music that ends up on my writing playlist will not be contained either.

My sapphic witch story TWO BY TWO BY TWO is out now with @heartlines-spec.com! The team at Heartlines really made this story shine and I was already thrilled with it.
