My family doesn’t really read my work. My mom used to, but that’s mostly it. I’m cool with it, used to it, understand it, am unbothered about it. 😌

Video: view out a window of a deer licking the hell out of a little orange cat's head. The cat is SO happy to be licked, very content and twisting their head from side to side to get every angle.
Beyond the wildlife is just uninhabited scrubland.

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

It’s more expensive than audible, but way less evil & supports your local bookshop. My strat: I borrow audiobooks from the library, and only buy the ones I don’t want to wait for. I pay the same as I would with audible, but support the library AND my local bookshop 📚
