Oh wait. I never really introduced myself.
Hi #booksky. I'm a dystopian fantasy author who has published stories that focus on fighting tyranny and censorship, while still focusing on diversity and hope. Plus there's magic. And some romance.

A reminder that fiction — books, film, games, what have you — is always political. The willful absence of “politics” in any work is itself a political choice and a political act. Who gets to tell (and sell) stories is political. It might be an undercurrent — covert, not overt. But it’s there.

Ah my favorite game...why do I feel sick today?
Is it anxiety?
Burnout?
ADHD?
PCOs?
Blood sugar?
Blood pressure?
Did I drink enough water?
Is it something else entirely?
Ugh.

Having ADHD and loving reading means reading a novel is like a marathon. I have to count down chapters and pages to keep myself going even though I swear I'm interested in what I'm reading

See, I really should be working on the origin novella for one of my characters. Now would be the perfect time--a story entirely focused on feminine rage.
But I just want to write cute happy things right now, okay. There's too much angst and sadness. Let me find some joy.

I keep wanting to say something about the state of well... everything. I type things up, erase them, and then stare at my screen, wondering if I made the right choice.
It's just... a lot.
I'm scared. Not for me, but for everyone else.

Now is not the time to stop reading. Fiction, non fiction, fan fiction...don't stop. Every story you read pulls inspiration from the real world.
Be critical. Be understanding.
And always have fun.

Today was a good day to take a mental health day. Napping...crocheting...walking...writing...
I'll re-enter the world later. Not worth it.

This weekend I was selling my books at a local comic con. It was a decent show where I met old & new readers alike.
BUT the highlight had to be the little girl who bought one of my fairy tales on Saturday, stopping by again on Sunday to tell me she read it in one night and absolutely loved it. 🥹

Ah yes, here I go keeping up my streak of being bad at social media. I've had this account for 3-days and have since posted once.
Like do I just start rambling about my books, my dog, current events...?
This is hard.
