Post you from a different era ✨️

I think I was wiped out here after going to see a fireworks display. Love my butterfly face paint here. 🦋

Also, that COUCH! We all had one or knew somebody who had one. 😂
A photo of an old picture of me from the early 1990s. I have a butterfly painted on my cheek and am wearing a glow stick ring as a necklace. I am sitting on a vintage floral couch and am wearing a green shirt and black pants. My hair is medium length, longer in the back, and I have bangs that rest above my eyebrows.

While I'm always a coffee fiend, the occasional Bengal Spice tea sure hits the spot this time of year. ☕️

Here's hoping this cup helps to fill my creative well to inspire some writing tonight! 📝
An image of a box of Bengal Spice tea by the brand Celestial Seasonings. It lists that it's an herbal tea and is caffeine-free. The box is a pale brownish-orange with an image of a tiger in the lower-right corner. In the background, a woman walks down a dirt path between two tall fields.

I went to one recently! 🎃

The only picture I took of any pumpkins were these ones at the entrance, which had already been picked-through. 😅

I was too busy enjoying the food truck snacks, walking through corn mazes, seeing farm animals, and taking a tractor ride out to the large fields of pumpkins.
Green, pale pink, white, orange, and yellow pumpkins are scattered on some patchy grass.

Engaging in social media is all too daunting for me at the moment. I'll be back soon! 😶‍🌫️

I'm currently out for a therapeutic short walk as I recover from a sickness I got on the plane ride home a few days ago.

Later, I'm going to try to get some writing done between tonight and tomorrow night!
An updated selfie. I'm wearing a snapback hat with a forest-filled Vancouver Island logo. There is a forest behind me, and the ground is filled with orange fallen leaves. I'm smiling at the camera. My black hair is tucked behind my ears, and now falls past my neck. I'm wearing a purple dangling gem earring in my right ear, and a dagger dangling earring in my left ear. I'm wearing a purple shirt and a black denim jacket as an outer layer.

There is also a small banner made up of fall trees of various colours, as well as a slice of pumpkin pie with a cute smiley face both on its side and the whipped cream dollop on top of it.

Waiting to see who (if anyone) shows up to this second September offering of my monthly Bluesky writers' group. 😅 📝✨️
A selfie of me taken during a Zoom call. I am looking at the camera and smiling. I am wearing a purple and black plaid shirt and am wearing an earring on each ear.

I'm in insurmountable pain today, but fueled by coffee and Caturday posts, I shall press on. ☕️ 🐈‍⬛

(It's been a while, so please accept these pics of my cat-son Osiris being a sleepy contortionist weirdo.)
A photo of Osiris, my black cat. He is sleeping on a brown couch and is partially on his back, with one front leg stretched far from his body, the other front leg held close to his body with his pan curling downward, and one of his back legs is folded to his face covering his left eye. His right eye is closed. A photo of Osiris, my black cat. He is sleeping on a brown couch and is partially on his back, with one front leg stretched far from his body, the other front leg held close to his body with his pan curling downward, and one of his back legs is folded to his face—this time stopping below his cheek. His eyes are open, and he is sleepily looking off to the right. The tips of two of his teeth are slightly visible.

It was lovely to reconnect with a lifelong friend whom I hadn't seen in years!

I'm disabled, and she's been recovering from a horrific workplace accident; but, we pushed through our pain and got to spend a day in gorgeous nature. 💚

Worth it. Now, to rest and recover for the next 24 hours. 😅
A photo of my friend and I. We are both smiling and giving a thumbs-up to the camera. I am wearing a black shirt with colourful blue and pink patterns and jean shorts. She is wearing sunglasses, a black sleeveless shirt, and patterned red palazzo pants. We're standing on a large rock formation. Behind us is a calm blue lake, surrounded by mountains and pine trees, under a clear and sunny sky.

1100 words added to my current script! 📝

Today's writing sprint that I took part in was wonderful and kept me feeling motivated.

I'm really looking forward to starting a similar writers' group for Bluesky users on Sept. 20 and Sept. 27 (for details, see my pinned post)! 🎉

Blurry screenshot of my screen in a Zoom meeting with other writers. There's a wrinkled sheet behind me serving as a backdrop, and I am smiling and giving two thumbs up to the camera. I am wearing a "Nadja and Lazslo: The Human Music Group" tee, which depicts these characters from the TV series What We Do In The Shadows. This was my pose as the host took a group screenshot to post over on the site WriteSeen where we meet.

I'm pinning this as an updated post!

You'll find that I'm pretty easygoing.

I also try to be as accommodating as possible; that's why I've added…

TWO dates! 🗓🤯

Come to one (or to both)! Thanks to everyone who has expressed interest.

Other writers are invited to either (or both) of these! 📝
A poster. It reads: ATTN: Bluesky Writers! Meet & Greet + Group Writing Session ​WHEN: 2 dates! Sept. 20th and Sept. 27th, both @ 4 PM PST/6 PM CST/7 PM EST ​WHERE: Virtually, via Zoom. A link to the meeting will be posted on the morning of the 20th. ​I'll try to use the same link for both days! ​This will be a monthly and inclusive writing group. Anybody is welcome to join; just be respectful and bring your creativity! ​The structure will be straightforward; we'll start with 10 min. of meet and greet and general chat. ​Then, we'll mute ourselves and write for 20 min., followed by a 5 min. break and another 20min. of writing. The background is blurred and of a backdrop of tall trees that fill the image. They stand against a blue sky behind them. Though the image is blurred and low contrast, the trees' bright green leaves and the tree trunks decorate most of the image.

Me irl rn, sick as heck and choosing to befriend my chronic pain demons today as I cosy up in bed to read.
A photo of Sarah Michelle Gellar from the set of Buffy The Vampire Slayer. She is wearing red lipstick, hoop earrings, and a leather jacket. She's smiling widely next to a large prop of one of the snake-like demons from earlier seasons.

Sharing again. This time, with a graphic that I threw together (I'm not a graphic designer. Don't come for me, I did my best). 😅

Looking for any writers who'd be interested in doing one of these soon! Probably mid-September.

A poster. The background is blurred and of a beach by a lake, with some forested mountains in the distance underneath a blue sky. The text reads: "ATTN: Writers of Bluesky! Dates TBD, based on timezones and availability. Are you interested in a monthly virtual meet-'n'-greet for writers? This would most likely be done via Zoom. I'm also interested in having a monthly writers' writing group/sprint. No expectations, work on whatever you want, just try to get some writing done! Both would be a place to get to know each other a little bit, connect, and cheer each other on every month. Comment with your time zone and include which dates and times would work best for you in September!"

It's amazing how a bit of dry shampoo, mascara, and a little bit of accessorising can help imbue you with enough energy to get some writing done! 😂

Yay for self-care and for pushing through the pain today.

(Felt a li'l' cute here. From today's writing session via Zoom)

​A Zoom selfie of me. My long dark hair and stubble of a beard are visible as I smile at the camera. I'm wearing a black tank top and accessorising with a leaf choker. Behind me is my makeshift backdrop, a wrinkled bedsheet.

Pardon the hair and eye bags (still going through a ton of pain w/my flare-ups), but LOOK WHAT ARRIVED IN THE MAIL TODAY! ✨️

I have a writing sprint shortly, but can't wait to dive in and start this book written by the wonderful @edenwritesbooks.bsky.social later this afternoon. ☺️

#BookSky #Readers
A selfie of me holding up the author Eden Sandoval's new book, The Divines. It is the first book in The Divine War Trilogy. I am smiling and wearing a sleeveless tank. The book's cover features its main character Terah, who is facing to the right and holding a katana sword behind her back just off of her shoulder. She stands against a purple and black gradient background and a large ball of light sits in the center. Bolts of lightning emerge from it and decorate the cover beautifully.

When a janitor for a future Neo-Canadian physics facility steals a clearance card to travel back in time to 1989, he arrives in present-day Vancouver and meets unexpected allies, his destiny forever changed.

(Photos are taken from a current listing from the townhouse community I lived in back in the 1990s. Also, this is VERY early days, I'm barely into the first draft.) 😅

AT THE END OF THE BLOCK

It's a single-cam comedy set in a typical lower to middle-class Canadian townhouse/townhome complex.

(1/4)
A view of some townhouses, each with a carport. There's an office to the right, and a single black car is parked in one of the two guest parking spots. Some of the carports have a single vehicle parked in them. A dated townhouse with a carport, surrounded by green trees. The house is a beige-ish colour with dark brown trim. A view of one of the townhouses, showing its attached garages. A black car is parked in the distance to the left of the townhouse, and a blue car is parked in front of the garage door on the right. A thin lamppost with a globular glass shade and a single tree decorate the tiny lawn that doubles as a traffic island barrier. A view of the backyard patio area of one of the townhouses. The tiny yard has seen better days. It has a with a wooden fence around its perimeter, which is attached to the townhouse.
