Author of sapphic Fantasy. Way too many cats and only slightly fewer dogs. So vague it hurts. She/Her.

Happy #InternationalCatDay from my three salty idiots who are both the best thing that’s ever happened to me and the universe’s reminder that I ain’t shit.

To be fair to Wally this was my reaction too.

One more chapter down.

To be fair Merlin is kind of a muppet.

For every chapter I edit today I’m posting a photoshopped pet picture.

This is Merlin completely unimpressed by the Eiffel Tower

I’m saying goodbye to my little buddy today and I am all kinds of messed up about it. I know I’m making the right call, but this hurts like hell.

Have a Mason because he is the absolute best boy ever:

I have decided to make a book nook as a middle finger to the horrors.

Some progress shots:
A book book with stone painted on the inside, there’s brown paint for dirt and some green highlights for moss A book book with stones painted on the inside there’s some brown paint for dirt and some green highlights for moss A small scaffolding made of popsicle sticks with a ladder to reach it and some beams to hold it up. They’ve been painted brown with some green over it to look like mossy wood

The icing was too thick so they didn’t dip prettily but for my first attempt they came out alright. White is vanilla, purple is lavender and the gray is violet flavored.

Shoutout to Sally’s Baking Addiction which has yet to fail me.

Merlin would like you to know that hoarding french fries is against the Geneva convention and therefore my wife is committing a war crime.

This is Merlin, he had to go to the Emergency Vet last night for a sprained tail. He wagged away about 500 bucks.
