Very pale pink, but pink!

Weirdly, not MY furry writing assistant (he's my "kids" doggo), but this is the best "helping" photo I have.

Your cat appears to be afflicted with the same ennui as my cat.

Hello! Author, editor, history nerd, gamer, crafter, K-pop multi-stan, and cat mom to Stormy (black cat, full name Stormageddon, Dark Lord of All) and Foggy (tabby cat, full name Fognarok). Both of them are very long bois.

My Bon Odori outfit yesterday. Yukata from Etsy, obi frantically made yesterday morning because the ones I bought did not go well with the yukata! Had just picked up this lovely fabric on a whim, and it worked perfectly. I'll likely add embroidery to it at some point!

Purple Kiss (K-pop) show was last night, and I got my selfie with Swan (the youngest member and my personal fave!). Ring lights are SUPER cool, but they show off how much silver is hiding in my hair!

This is from a bijillion internet years ago, but this book is almost ready for primetime. One of my besties made me add illustrations. This one is for you.

My piece, "Sunrise," involves a trans cowboy and vampires. www.queerscifi.com/rise-release...

Fognarok, aka Foggy. He is a leisurely sun-seeking dragon posting as a cat. The belly is NOT a trap.
September 26, 2023 at 3:00 AM
Stormageddon, Dark Lord of All, aka Stormy. Definitely a tiny dragon. Look at that pose.

I only look at my day-by-day cat calendar on Fridays, so I just found this one today. @seananmcguire.bsky.social you're cat famous (as though you weren't previously cat famous for your cat sneaking into luggage).
