@trudieskies.readindiefantasy.com I have a note on my phone for this exact reason 😭

Iced tea or hot coffee, slippers, cold wind and a warm sunrise. Birds in the trees or snow on the lawn. Peace.

“Cozy” if you compare it to Quan Mills (I am joking and I love your books 😭)

My husband often asks me to translate small texts and I just end up saying “ok so katakana is hit or miss for me ngl and kanji is a lost cause. I’m guessing here…” then babble off the closest thing to what I says as possible. Best I did was translate “raspberries” on a carton at the grocer 💀

The number of times I had to hide my kindle was maddening 😭😭😭 to be fair I read all three in a week

Me reading the book at my IT job with my jaw on the carpet:

The moment the writing swings that way, it’s an instant 3 or less. I got a couple audio books on sale cause ✨ gift card ✨ and one got a 3/5 (I enjoyed the flashback portions) but the other one I put down after 5 minutes. Why are so many people using AI for the audio narration?? 💀

I can tell when the style of writing is to account for lack of attention span because the same 4 phrases will get repeated every 2-3 min max (audio book) or every couple paragraphs (print / digital). It drives me INSANE.

I tend to find myself describing what I want out loud when trying to say exactly what.
Unfortunately “the thing over there” does not translate in my husbands mind to “my switch controller”.

Pretty cat.
Also- will need to acquire a physical copy at some point- I loved these 😭🩵

We have natural clover in over half our yard and get rabbits every year that come to munch :3

Anywhere here’s my new tattoos. I’m just stressed and tired.
