I write cinnamon roll shifters, strong women, and places you want to call home. Probably out on a hot girl walk.
I contacted Shopify vendor support and asked why my business was no longer worthy of support. If you do business with Shopify, you may want to do the same.

I was one of those kids that got fed. They didn't care what color you were or about your income, they just did the right thing and I have never forgotten it. We were too poor to afford breakfast.

When Congressman John Lewis was a child, he tried to get a library card. He was turned away & told “The Library is not for coloureds” 💔

He’s a civil rights icon, lover of books, recipient of the National Book Award for Young People’s Literature.

“The Library IS for Everyone” 💚

Me: surely someone must be talking about using the 25th amendment to stop this madness.

*Googles*

Last mention is July 2024?

Seems a little sus.

So far, my Resistance Day activities include livestreaming the alt-watch Puppies and Kitties inauguration, recommending Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny, and ordering Girl Scout cookies from a trans girl who had yet to meet her goal (including GF options!).

It's (probably) medically recommended to turn off the TV today, and simply read queer romance instead.

Just typed THE END on a queer paracozy where a drag queen wolf shifter investigates the murder of a dancer in a unicorn shifter male revue in Vegas.

It might have been just a little fun to write.✨

I realized I teased you about the cover of So I Dared a Dragon and never actually showed it to you...let me fix that faux pas:

Oh no...I stopped writing last night in the middle of a steamy scene. Which means I must begin with steam. I'll learn nothing from this.

My cover designer is working on So I Dared a Dragon. Is she making said dragon burly and slutty? Yes. Are we using glam metal bands as inspo? Also yes.

Also really mad I didn't think of strippers saving Christmas first. I feel like I've let you all down and for that I am sorry.
