I'm procrastinating my Pilates by Izzy by being an incredibly productive writer. ... Is this how I finally get my edits done? #writerlife

Things that happened at D&D today: DM and PC both had alarms set (they're twins, this is important) - and then RACED to pick up goalies for their fantasy league. It got violent. Words were said. #dnd #SW5E

SW5e vibes: After 30 minutes of discussion, we decided to call our party the "Resista-rebels." 2 hours into the session we realized it sounded too much like "resist-a-rebel" and that wasn't the messaging we wanted to put out there. We are now the "Rebelliance" pronounced "Rebelions." Obvi #dnd

I spilled my coffee into my soup. Prior to that, all my today spills had been single liquid spills. So, that’s where I’m living. When is NaddPod going to have another spills episode? … I need to talk to them. @caldy.bsky.social #clumsy

We saw the crow again, making its cute little chirpy sounds. This time, it visited our back yard and shouted at our dogs, who found this delightful. I hope the crow finds a sweet crow love.

Today, while we were walking the corgis, we heard a crow making a neat sound atop a streetlight-- trying to find their true crow love. I hope they find each other soon. Will update you.

My calendar strategy: Get date in email. Don’t delete email until date is on whiteboard calendar in kitchen. At some point later, put whiteboard dates into paper calendar. Even later, put dates into phone - but only maybe. Try to remember if I use gCal or iCal. This is fine. #writerlife

Ways I've made my corgi angry: She hurt herself and is not allowed to hop up into her chair. This. Is. An. Outrage. We dared take her to the vet and the vet dared thwart her chair-sitting plans. The mood in the dwelling is tense.
An orange corgi stands in the grass holding a deflated ball which looks like, at one time, it was as big as her.

Today, I wish for you the kind of peaceful rest / nap Wolf is having. Yes. The little snores are audible. #corgi
A corgi with brown and black fur rests in a fluffy dog bed. His head is smooshed into a pink blankie, while his legs are splayed in front of him. His eyes are closed and the tip of his tongue is sticking out of his smiling mouth. He looks peaceful.

I have just learned that there is gluten in soya sauce. Now, it’s made out of two things I’m not supposed to eat. I have chosen to dissociate from the reality where I know this information. This explains some stuff… In other news, I’m also going to continue eating cheese. #dropout

I don't pretend to know the science behind it, but it's beyond dispute that coffee and tea taste at least 63% better when you're drinking them from your most cherished mug.

Any similarity is purely coincidental, right, @questauthority.bsky.social?
Four panel comic. First panel: Alien on laptop in background asks “what are you consuming?” Alien in foreground with mug and a hanging tea bag tag responds “cold leaf liquid.” Second panel: laptop alien asks “in a warm liquid cylinder?” Mug alien responds “I have become unpredictable” Third frame: laptop alien asks “Did you make hot lead liquid and then become distracted and neglect it?” Mug alien is silent. Fourth frame: “are you now murmuring?” Mug alien replies “No, I am not” in very small font.

I once rolled five natural 1s in thirteen rolls. Makes sense that my first roll at #gauntletatthegarden was also a one. Can I use a luck point? #dimension20 #dnd #ttrpg #d20

It’s -30*C. Oh noo… not the perfect introvert opportunity to make hot chocolate and write all daaayyyy - oh nooooo Also, enjoy this obligatory corgi photo. #amwriting #introvert #writingcommunity
An orange corgi dog with a white belly lays on her side. Her feet are against a wall. Her mouth is wide open in a big goofy happy yawn while her tongue is draped to the side in a pose that says “I am a lazy happy dog.”

My review (so far) of Save the Cat Writes a Novel. Am I going to follow the structure exactly? No. But, it gave me the terms I needed to understand what to look up. And, has kept me quite motivated to plot and write. Thus my review is: pretty good #amwriting #amoutlining #savethecat

Day 5 of becoming a reformed pantser. Alright. Outline of the main plot is done. There are Acts! Now, I'm working at the scene level. I think I have enough scenes. Some are: 'maybe this, maybe that' but progress is happening! YOUUU SHALL BE PLOTTED! #AmWriting #WritingCommunity

I present to you, Wolf. Named after the terrifying villain Star Wolf. Dastardly. Cunning. Fearsome. And, snuggling his fluffy new blanket with his safety Chewbacca. #corgi
A black and brown corgi lays in a grey dog bed. Also in the dog bed are a pink fluffy blanket, a Yoda stuffy toy, and a Chewbacca stuffy toy. 

From the dog’s expression, one might think the dog was about to have a nap in his very safe place. 

In the background, parts of a kitchen sneak through the image.
