Muse

Muse is a fickle thing. Coming and going by whims and wishes. A thing that can be stifled just as easily stoked. From the many forms of art, nature, and the human condition, a muse may blossom. A bud who’s sent is sweet and honey-tongued, but beware the thorns from a thing designed to lure…

Nemesis

I never thought I’d have one, but with the current state of affairs, I think I’ve found many. Not only in my personal life have people come forward against me, (family, friends, the once-trusted) but now my nation has sought the destruction of my values and rights and the values and rights…

Not only in my personal life have people come forward against me, (family, friends, the once-trusted) but now my nation has sought the destruction of my values and rights and the values and rights of many others. This should not be said quietly but with a voice that never tires of screaming for justice!

We read books by LGBTQ+ authors before. We will read books by LGBTQ+ authors now. We will read books by LGBTQ+ authors tomorrow. Literature is for and by everyone.

I hate that the majority of people today assume that straight is the default, so to combat this misconception I’ve decided that they’re some sort of rainbow spectrum till they ‘prove’ it otherwise. 🌈❤️
Supremes say parents can opt out of letting their kids listen to LGBTQ stories. Can parents similarly opt out of kids listening to stories that DON'T have LGBTQ themes or incidents? 🤣

My sweet baby boy all suds up and giving me the death glare for a bath that “he definitely ‘didn’t’ need” ❤️🐕

I refuse to stop talking about and recommending Chain-Gang All-Stars by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah, it is truly one of the best books I’ve read and am dying for more like it!

Today marks the one year anniversary since I began my most ambitious project yet, it’s still in the works and has branched into three additional books for the series and two separate standalones.
It’s slow going but I’m more confident in my skills and ability now to compete these works!

I’m still writing.
I’ll still reading.
Times are hard and I’m sad to put it in the simplest.
But I’ll keep doing the things I like and helping the people that would do the same for me.
I don’t have the energy to fight everyone/everything, but I will fight, just in my own way.
In my own time…

More people should read.
Read for fun
Read for facts
Read for fantasy
Read for yourself
Read for your edification
But most importantly, UNDERSTAND what you’re reading.
Learn from the words and stories you consume.
Reading isn’t ‘a waist of time’ if you doing something with it/about it.
Read More!!!📚

I need so many snacks right now, like the world is burning and my tummy hungers for a little treat to take the edge off. Something nice to pair with my earl grey tea would be perfect ☕️

We all come from the blood of humanity.

If it smells foul, remember it was us that bred and brewed it.

Now we must live with it or seek to change at the root of its cause.

If you use Gen AI in ANY capacity, don't follow me, don't talk to me, don't engage with my content in any way! I don't need your slop clogging up my feed and starving REAL artists with your crap! I won't be nice to you. You're not being nice to the planet. #DoBetter

One day we’ll all be gone and the planet will breath its final dying sigh.

Remember to look at what Earth has given and all we’ve took.

Do not close your eyes and call for forgiveness.

Seek change and preservation.

Do better, for you, for us, for Mother Earth.

Listen to her dying screams…

Hot tea and a cream cheese bagel is a perfect writing partner 🥯☕️

Still working on my manuscript with the devised outlining plan I have. Working really well so far. Can’t wait to share more when I have it.
