Watching a vid on someone’s 90s vintage thrifted Halloween haul and it’s like watching an anthropologist or archaeologist theorize on my teen years and why we did things as if I’m some mysterious, near-extinct creature not seen in the wild for generations.

Of all my talents, thinking up titles to sort story collections is not one of them. And now I have to come up with two. Blargh, I stayed up til 3 editing and now I have to use my brain more?! Not cool.

Did not expect to experience a Gregorian chant version of ‘Heroes’ when channel flipping through an existential crisis, yet I strangely needed that today.

Let’s keep it going. I’m all about the pleasing memes. Time to talk about nice things.
1 like = 1 thing I love
1 like = 1 thing I love
I'm in, let's talk about things we love.
1 like = 1 thing I love
1 like = 1 thing I love
Yeah let’s do this.
This is a pleasing meme. I will talk about nice things and I'd love to hear about yours.

I guess I should probably commit more to learning to use this platform at this point.

That time of year I haul out my holiday story for people with complex feelings about the season. Or what happens when I mix holiday tropes with faeries, starting over, magic, and probably a dash of Andersen’s Fir Tree.

I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole of obscure 80s sitcoms of my youth and The Charmings is on YouTube. Send help. This show was such a great idea that just never fully clicked in some ways. Lillian and the magic mirror are still fun, though.

Happy to have you here!
Thank you @selahjanel.bsky.social for the invite! Looking forward to connecting with others.
I’m an audiobook narrator who is delving into the world of writing. I’ll mostly post about my writing adventures here but I’m sure audiobook stuff will sneak in sometimes!

Decided to play into the cliche and went on a notebook binge. Who decided *this* was appropriate for normal human handwriting?! Mine isn’t great on a good day and now you throw *this* at me?!

Curled up with Sting’s ‘If on a Winter’s Night,’ which gives me so much nostalgia vibes and peaceful energy. Love this album

Due to so many reasons, I haven’t held a title only by me in my hands since 2014. These showed up this week. Sometimes wins are loud and triumphant, and sometimes they’re the quiet alert of a delivery on your porch #amwriting #fantasy #fairytale #christmas #authors

Welsh folklore tells us that November is Witch Month:
"Witches were supposed to have great power in Nov. Their Sabbaths were scenes of the wildest orgies, so the old people said. Children were told not to remain out after dark for they would catch them."

Totally forgot to post Halloween pics - started this in 2019 and had to shelve it due to the medical mystery tour. Finally felt up to finishing and wearing it for a con tinual panel on the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina recorded last month. #costumes #horror #halloween

Today’s NaNoWriMo word count: 2,843. I kind of know where I’m going with things, but I’ll have to flesh out stuff in a later draft. I have to keep reminding myself that’s normal or something.
