This cat has been moving the suppertime urgency window significantly over the past few months. She's been upping the proximity to the food dishes, even encroaching on the kitchen (she used to wait under the coffee table) and I'm getting this face at 20 minutes past three. 320! We started at 5!

A black and white long hair tuxedo cat sits near two food dishes. One is empty, the other has dry kibble. She had a look on her face like she has never been fed in her life. Pack your bags, we're going on a guilt trip.

I have a new update to our ongoing housing/life fundraiser. I am losing the last lifeline I had to my ability to maintain a productive life and work towards a better future. I have no hope left. gofund.me/f79eaf5b Update text continued in thread and in full at the link.

I’m sorry it’s been over a month since I last updated you. I don’t know if I told you that a local charity helped us get Padfoot dental surgery and I know I didn’t tell you that a few weeks later they were able to cover surgery to remove a growth on our other dog. So in addition to work, life, and the general chaos of 2025 I spent most of April nursing two dogs back to health with lots of important medications and monitoring aside from all my other responsibilities. I will tell you: a 70lb dog in a cone inside a very small camper is AN EXPERIENCE. But both girls now have a clean bill of health.

Wish I could say the same for me. About a week after my last update, I had another recertification of income due for my state health insurance. That was confusing and frustrating because I had just submitted my documents in November and it’s usually a once a year thing. I called to ask for an extension because since I am a self-employed novelist, my income is a regular and my best example of my finances is my yearly tax return. I submitted a PDF of my return on April 17th. Their website says it takes between 2-5 days for submitted documents to be processed.

As a reminder, I am on Washington state’s free health insurance plan. I have been on it since I first applied when the ACA (Obamacare) launched. Before that I was without insurance since aging out of pediatric coverage at 18. I have always qualified, even with more income than I made last year—which was 31k gross before taxes or agency commission or expenses.

Without the insurance that I have through the ACA, I would be dead. I was in the hospital within two weeks of being approved for the first time, with a severe kidney infection that probably came from a simple UTI that I didn’t have a doctor to treat before. It took me half a year to recover from that and if I hadn’t been treated when I was, it would’ve likely progressed to sepsis and killed me.

I was born with a genetic condition called neurofibromatosis, which causes tumor growth on nerves and chronic migraines. I require an MRI to monitor my brain for tumors every other year. I have had a few tumors removed on different parts of my body. But the most critical part of my condition that I deal with is chronic migraines. Every three months I get Botox injections from my neurologist to paralyze the nerves that tell my brain it’s in pain. It is the only

treatment that has ever worked for me, without it I am bedridden and unable to work. With it, I have maybe one or two headaches a week.

Yesterday, I checked the progress of my health insurance recertification. Not only had they not reviewed my files yet, my coverage had expired completely during their delay. I called and waited on an hour on hold to reach someone who had me reapply for the same insurance. He told me to then call the documents office and have them review my files with me over the phone so that I could be reinstated. However, it took so long on the call by the time I called the other number they were closed for the day.

So I called them this morning and waited another hour on hold. When I reached someone, he looked through my tax return and told me that according to that I would no longer qualify for my state insurance. Apparently the limit is $1800 a month. The 31k on my tax return would put me at $2500 a month, even though that does not factor in commissions (taken out before I ever receive any money in my bank account), taxes, or deductions and expenses.

The man was really nice and walked me through making a profit and loss statement for the past

three months that would put my income into better context. However, that still doesn’t work because the way that publishing works is that I get big chunks that have to last me for potentially years.

So the small (under 9k) contract payment in March counts against me even though it has to last the foreseeable future, not just the past three months. My business expenses are not the same every month. Sometimes I have a $20 domain name renewal as my only expense, sometimes I have to order hundreds of dollars worth of bookmarks or book travel expenses for an event six months from now. A profit and loss for one quarter could look a lot different than the rest of the year, because my income and expenses don’t follow a normal schedule.

So it seems that even if I can somehow manipulate the numbers right now to stay insured, the next time I get a payment or sell a new book I’m likely to lose my insurance anyway. Even though I’m homeless and my money goes even quicker than it did while I was sheltered. Even though I only allow my business account to send $1,000 to my personal each month as the only money I’m allowed to touch. Even though almost all of that $1,000 goes right back into the

This is too wholesome

I had the most wonderful flight home from Denver. I met the nicest young man who sat next to me. He offered to put my bag in the overhead compartment and helped me with my tray. He was always polite, saying "yes ma’am" or "no ma’am." Anyone would be proud to have him as a son or grandson—so polite.

People walking by were saying congratulations, great job, or even taking pictures. I turned and asked him, “Who am I sitting next to?” I looked at his Jaguar pants, smiled, and asked, “Are you an athlete?” He smiled and said, “I’m Travis. Yes, I was drafted by the Jags.” I already told my sons I want his jersey.

He’s so humble and down-to-earth—I would have never guessed he was a professional athlete. JACKSONVILLE JAGS, you did good! I will be buying tickets.

United Airlines, thank you for my seat assignment!

SCOOBY DOOBIE DOO, LILYPADS! It’s finally time to unveil the incredible cover of my #ScoobyDoo novel THE HEX GIRLS: A ROGUE THORN! I’m also so grateful that my version of The Hex Girls—the same characters but as an all Black girl band like “a goth Destiny’s Child”—were depicted accurately.

The official cover of THE HEX GIRLS: A ROGUE THORN by Lily Meade, featuring Thorn, Luna, and Dusk of The Hex Girls in a thorny woody plain ahead of the mystery machine in the background.

Everything’s chill in Coolsville. . . until the Hex Girls move to town. Can Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Inc. gang solve the mystery surrounding the goth rockers before someone gets hurt? Find out in this dark, mysterious, and exciting take on the beloved Scooby-Doo cartoon!

Coolsville is shaken up when eco-goth band The Hex Girls move to town. Teenagers Thorn, Luna, and Dusk are looking for a fresh start for themselves and their band after the disastrous events that destroyed their hometown and Thorn’s reputation. But things take a turn for the worse when a mysterious mist starts killing crops and making people sick wherever Thorn goes. She quickly becomes the town’s prime suspect and is outcast once again.

As her band falls apart, Thorn turns to the Mystery Inc. gang, especially Velma, for help as they try to solve the mystery and prove Thorn’s innocence. While the gang thinks that Thorn’s magical powers are the key to stopping the growing threat to Coolsville, Thorn is sure magic will only bring more harm than good—and that revealing her true nature would make her an outsider forever. Can they solve the mystery and save Coolsville before someone gets seriously hurt. . . or worse?

Full of classic Scooby-Doo antics mixed with darker, more mysterious horrors, this spooky, romantic mystery is sure to thrill teens and Scooby-Doo fans!
