I've not been so active on here, but...hoping to do better...! So, here we go with my latest #bookreview. A delightful #CozyMystery called #Bait&Swiss - which I absolutely adored! Great #read!

One of my fave recent humor pieces I've written. Lady Stardust might or might not approve. #cats #creativennonfiction #humor #MockingOwlRoost

One of my favorite things: Hearing my husband laugh (maniacally, hysterically, boisterously -- any of the above) from the other room while he plays his TTRPGs with his pals online.

One lesson I've taken from this industry is to be wary of creators who are only excited about themselves and their own work. I want you to love what you make! But what other writers set your imagination on fire? Who else do you celebrate? Who do you show up for?

Hello BlueSky! I'm new here. Been running the profile for the mag I run for a few days and was talked into joining personally, too. So, here I am. Happy #writing weirdo who loves #cats, #tea, #travel, my awesome hubby, and, of course, all things #artsy. I've love to meet my fellow #creatives!

Hey, if you fancy yourself a writer, I’m looking for some personal stories from folks from when games became more important than life. Humorous, heartfelt, whatever. Paid opportunity. Shoot me a message if you’d like to hear more.

re: "forced diversity" all fiction is forced, it doesn't just happen. humans create it. our world is diverse. making an effort to reflect the diversity of the world in your fiction is cool. also, no one can create a perfect universal work of fiction. do we have love or hate in our hearts?

I am a single-issue voter and that issue is "never having to think about or listen to Donald Trump ever again for the rest of my life."
