Remember when I wrote a post about what some of my characters would say on meeting me? I did it again, but this time if they knew I was the author of their troubles.
Patrons get an older short story of mine again. I've come a very long way as a writer.

Some curiosity, but Vinny's enclosure is in the NerdCave, and the cats aren't allowed in there without me anyway.
Tori is largely uninterested, but Cinnanis really curious.
Ball python. Not genetically confirmed, but I was told her morph is Orange Dream. She was a breeder before the rescue got hold of her. Poor thjng never had a name before I got her.
Her name is Vinata SepsisWhore Grappin. Vinny for short.
Named after a #DungeonCrawlerCarl character
Just a guy and his snake.
It's April, so this week's free post is my usual monthly status report. Lean month, not going to lie. But good.

What would your protagonist(s) say if they met you? I talk about a few of mine and what I think they'd say on meeting me, but as person, not as their author/creator.

Got roped into some random D&D. We're fighting a sausage dragon to collect ingredients to make a sandwich.
I have named the sausage dragon "Meatthew."
Meatthew is not amused. My monk is down.
How do I come up with all these names? My free post this week goes into a couple ways I come up with "non-normal" names. Patrons get another chapter of the Criminal From Birth sequel!
