One of the best pieces of advice I ever received was that successful authors fail often and they fail early, failure is an opportunity to learn and get better. This hits home so very often.

This is Benny. Benny wants to remind you that it’s ok if the laundry isn’t folded and your house is a mess. He says it’s ok to not be ok and to take care of yourself today so you can punch fascism in the tit tomorrow. Maybe Benny is telling me that too…huh.

Smiles wanted: I’ve been a bit MIA on socials lately because it’s felt really hard to get out of my little mental cave. And b/c I’m sure we could all use something to smile about, I’m sharing a favorite meme and I’d love to see one of yours. Share below or share this post with a meme.

Ive been reading about 💀 lately. Partly as research for a new series, partly b/c I have felt drawn to it. This book is a beautiful look at those who make 💀 their work. It’s opened my eyes, challenged & comforted me. I’m gr8ful for that. @hayleycampbell.bsky.social

Had a really hard day. So I: 💙Cried 💙Ate nourishing food 💙Filled my inner well with something fun. And all of that was as hard to do. I didn’t want to, but I needed to, & maybe you do too so hear me when I say: DO IT. It’s VITAL to take care of yourself!

"I don't know whether I want to sh00t you or fvck you." (Jax-Forbidden Mate) This might be one of my favorite micro tropes. This dynamic is a cornerstone of a ship that was part of my formative years. Can you guess from the gif what it is? LOL Maybe that's why I keep coming back to it in my books.

This week has been full of highs and 'yikes'. One of the yikes has to do with our upcoming move to the Netherlands & it was a blow. We are still going, there's just an added wrinkle we weren't expecting. And it's times like that when I just need cute pet pics. If ya got 'em, share 'em.

You’ve heard of taking a physical dump in the morning I’m sure. But what about a mental one? I journal first thing to clear the 💩 out of my mind, and these days there’s a lot it from the anxiety I’m swimming in. No one ever reads it & I toss it when I’m done so I write whatever pops into my head.

Let's play a little game: You wake up on a spaceship, trapped in a room with an outrageously hot alien who looks at you like you’re his next meal. What’s your first move? This could become a reoccurring game, where I take my fave answer and you get to build a story with me. But 1st: I need answers

Passport update: we were able to submit applications for mine and hubbys but not the kids b/c the amount on our money order was wrong. We also had to do some ridiculous corrections and they almost didn’t accept my DL b/c I renewed it this month & it has to be 6mo old. This country is 💩

Waiting at our local courthouse to get our passports. They went from processing 5 or 6 a day to upwards of 50 applications per day. But yeah, TFG has a mandate, that’s why everyone wants to leave.
