Please, someone shake me when I have to drive to Canada. I read news today for the first time in a bit, and I still can’t handle it.

It’s World Mental Health Day, thank god. Give me a moment, I’m breathing. Mental health is mostly about cats...mostly… Pretty cats, feral cats, tabbies, and Garfield all help me get through life. But for me prioritizing what is important to me and following through with it is top, peak happy. Goals.

Update: I found a new public library with an LGBTQ+ book club in the area. First book—Serial Killer Support Group. How apropos! So glad their hours fit my schedule! Just a miner picking away at fascisim for the resistance.

Thinking about your book (for example 62,000 words on a weird book in a drawer) should count as butt in chair writing time.

Heartfelt Release Day Book Plea: Candid About Space is a tumultuous trip with two moms and two daughters. I hope you enjoy this thriller of a ride. There’s some dead bodies sprinkled throughout and plenty of second act being bad and family strife. geni.us/candidabouts... #sapphicfiction

Welp. Now I know I can scoop up a dead squirrel with a sharp shooter shovel, put it in a plastic garbage bag, tie that bag, and put it in the weekly trash. Thanks google for confirming this process and ultimately empowering me to learn a new skill.

GCLS is almost here! I'm excited to see friends I've met in my writing journey, new faces, and engage with as many people as I can. I've got a busy schedule but if you want to connect, please do. Also find me up at 5 a.m. roaming around lobbies and towns looking for half decent coffee. #gcls2025

I’m currently working on a zero draft, which means I type really fast and don’t look back. I’m in this groove, so be prepared for social media typos, email typos, text typos, etc. I’m also not responsible for autocorrects. Sorry, you’ll have to suss it all out for about 3 more months.

This morning at 4:00 a.m., after saying “huh,” I learned that sometimes the way your book is going is just too weird, and you just have to drop it indefinitely. As a generally weird person, this is tough for me to say, but in this case, it’s undeniably true.
