Also, for anyone who followed me on threads, uhhhh, I got locked out the day I joined and my brain noodles don’t understand how to get back in 😎 🔥

Sent off a new manuscript yesterday so, you know, JUST POOPIN BRICKS 🧱 😬😭🙏🏻🤷‍♀️

A screenshot of my etsy store in progress. The banner shows an array of catgirl merch including stickers, charms, a shirt and a tote bag. The catgirls are all slightly menacing looking and there are lots of bloodied weapons around them.

People have been asking me to reopen my etsy for like 4 years and I'm finally working on it! (it's not open yet but SOON). I have so much catgirl merch... what happened to me to make me like this......

When I dreamed about being an author, having a book I wrote loved enough to be on a classroom wall was not even a thought in my mind. But thanks to a kind teacher and students, they made a dream I didn't know I had come true. 🥹 I can’t say this enough: thank you to all my readers! I adore you! 🖤🖤🖤🖤

Grief hitting me hard today 🥺

Absolutely true! I will be learning from them for eons. 🥹

Every single goddamned one.

Realized today that my kids are all aspects of my inner child and blew my own mind 🥲

Estate sale hunting today. It’s so exciting questing for old books.

I get 5 solid days to revise a new/old adult project and it's the first real mini-writing retreat I've had since covid shutdown. I can't tell you how happy this makes me.

There's a lot of UAP/UFO talk atm, so if you or your kids want to read about how an autistic grieving kid and her dog hunt down an alien spaceship, it's all documented here in IZZY AT THE END OF THE WORLD 👽🛸🤭

I'm holding steady! It's good to see your face, Simon!

Hey, my favorite random place meeting friend! One day we're going to hang out not randomly and cry over our struggle. Also, thank you!!!

For those of us struggling to write, laugh, sleep, enjoy, relax, create, breathe, be - let me be the first to tell you that you are a star and you're doing a fucking fantastic job at life, Babe ⭐🫡

So hi new followers, some things about me. I talk about trauma bc I've lived it, autistics bc we're cool af, mental health bc the world has gone dark & it's us sensitives who carry the sometimes too heavy lights. I'm a widow. A poet, and write to make you feel. I'm a 4th cousin of Emily Dickinson 💀

Wow. I am completely overwhelmed by all my new followers! Hi friends! ☺️ My family is dealing with a lot right now, which is why I've been pretty absent, so if I've missed any mutuals from The Bad Place please send me a hello and I'll follow you back! And to everyone new, I'm so happy you're here!

thank yooouuu!!!

yes please and thank you!

!!! Thank you! And yay!!!! It's such a relief to be in the calm place.

YAY!!!!!!!!

Oh, I know. I've been on there 13+ years. It was hard. :( But the good old days were long dead so . . .
