Aspiring writer of literary fantasy. (I aspire to write, to have it be literary-adjacent, and to have publishing not be a fantasy)

Californian and non-taciturn Estonian, kids, dog, and scaling down dreams.

Wanting the best for you, always

With your catalogue and accomplishments, it does feel like if you're not making it, no one but a small handful are.

Our local store also proposes to give unattended children espresso and a free puppy.

I do wonder where they get the puppies.

Many thanks for your work

always a joy to read of the ingenuity of scientists. Modern marvels are almost magic.

I suppose it’s too early to tell whether this can be manufactured at scale without needing chicken eggs….
