I need more documentaries where the "bad guys" get what they've got coming. No more dead/missing women, pls.

So far I've got...
Fyre
Bad Vegan
Titan
Bikram
The Tinder Swindler
Murdaugh Murders*
Murder Among the Mormons
Keep Sweet: Pray & Obey

*has dead women

What are some other good ones?

Just got cold call negged by a marketer.

"Everyone says your book is great but you're totally invisible! You should be on BookTok!"

(Apparently my 6k BookTok is "invisible." Possibly because I previously blocked this person.)

Today I'm thankful for Texas state required reading in school ('95 - '02).

Midwife's Apprentice and Isle of the Blue Dolphins taught me life alone as a woman is rich and meaningful and you can have pets.

Hatchet and Voyage of the Frog taught me men are fucked the second they can't be with people.

My most successful tiktoks are six seconds of me staring at the camera with a block of bitchy text over my face.

I'm trying not to take it personally.

Grew my BookTok account to 6k in 6 months by posting my face and white text. The specific combo of keywords and (nominal) white-girl-pretty sure gets the algo going. It also rewards me for bitching about my age!

Here's my most viral post this month at a whopping 220k views:

My facebook got hacked so I guess I'm a permanent resident on bluesky. Gotta get this bad boy brushed up before my new book comes out next year!

And yes, I left Oculus. Retired to write books, more specifically.

Hope you like fantasy and sci-fi because I've been at both since 6th grade.

Steve Carell giving Sean Bean a run for his money on who can die at the end most times.

Hannah Waddington now is like Emma Thompson of my 20s.

Aging sucks.

I hate the internet's reaction to the dead summer campers in Texas 💔
July 8, 2025 at 3:13 PM
Possible titles for my work in progress...

Blood of the Blade
Cry of the Lost Daughter
Captain Fuckboy & His Adventures in Mage Country

Being a writer is so fun 💕

So I just had to explain to my boomer mom that yes, she is part of a "throuple."

And no, the Xennial kids of her partners do not have to like it. Because even in an era of radical tolerance, she is by definition the other woman fucking their dad. And also the siren who turned their mom gay.

New phrase I learned from BookTokUK: "World class fanny rat."

I left my job at Meta after 5 years on Oculus Publishing.

It's a weird, scary thing to do in the games business when so many of my friends face monthly layoffs.

But I don't want to waste my 40s waiting for someone else's midlife crisis.

On a sixth attempt at Honor Run. Baldur's Gate owns my soul.

Spending inordinate amounts of time trying to convince booktok to abandon ACOTAR in favor of BG3.
March 4, 2025 at 4:44 PM
Back to work means back to social media. Here's how I spent my FMLA:

- signed my first book deal
- wrote 20k words on a new book
- failed Honor Mode on BG3 five times
- dodged the layoff axe at Facebook
- Discovered Solo Leveling

Metaphor Refantazio is the Persona successor I didn't know I needed.

#BlackDoves is peak Netflix targeted marketing for women.

Glamor! Spies! Tradwife family but it's a feminist LIE! Hot gay sex! Athliesure you can't afford!

I don't like what this algorithm says about me.

I'm consistently impressed how far the games industry has come with hair.

Obligatory post to get myself out of new account jail.

Video games! Fantasy books! Trashy romance! The right kind of sci-fi! (For some reason I am the most picky about sci-fi!)
November 20, 2024 at 1:23 AM
Lot of politics showing up in my feed. Could I get some more games, please? Maybe some strong opinions on Veilgaurd?

I'm sick of "enemies to lovers" where they weren't ever really enemies.

Ok ran out of content. Dark Urge: embrace just doesn't have enough act 3 stuff in it to make an evil playthrough fun.

I don't get why so many people romanced Astarion in #bg3 - it's like doing it with Stewie Griffin. You can't fix an accent with sex.
