I've never healed from the one year we decided to butcher our own Thanksgiving turkey. I helped pluck it and the smell will haunt me for the rest of my life.

Then my mom crying at the table later bc she helped raise it 😭

Or watching chickens *literally* run around with no heads.

Horror fodder.

Okay if someone had told me that writing the book a second time would take just as long as the first I would have punched them in the dick.

Its taking just as long and I am UNWELL.

I use Spotify literally every day. I listen to Podcasts, and Audiobooks, and Music nonstop.

I can't stop thinking about them funding AI military drones with my money. I'm so fucking done.

lol. Lmao, even.

Spotify cancel screen--a pathetic playlist of songs, generated to create an emotional response to canceling my paid subscription.

Audiobooks do a lot of heavy lifting for me! And just sitting down every night before bed.

Sometimes it's 10 pages, sometimes it's 70 🤷
Sometimes it's rereading the same paragraph 10 times because I have something on my mind.

Which, to be clear: I'm a SLOOOOW reader. I'm just Avid so it looks fast. 70 pages before bed is a. Lot. For me.

I read 70 pages of this last night so I guess I'm reading it after all 😂

I know this book has mixed reviews but it's basically Kelsi Bait so far.

Pairing An Education in Malice with with Dont Let the Forest in just feels...right.

DLFI was lovely. A little gory Yaoi. I didn't love it as much as I wanted to, but I do think it is a beautiful book.

Hi #PortfolioDay !
I'm Ollie, and I write comics. I wrote the graphic novel OFF MENU (aka THE RESTAURANT AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD). I've written for IP including Red Sonja and 2000AD, and award-winning projects like YOUNG MEN IN LOVE.

my schedule is open and I'd love to work with more editors!

A stack of copies of THE RESTAURANT AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD, by me and Kelsi Jo Silva.

I have no idea, I'm still reading the forward 😂

It was written in the 13th century though so I'm sure a certain level of looking-things-up needs to happen.

you would make a terrible Greek Poet, and I think that's perfectly okay!

I'm saving it for the slow winter months! A big book for cold days just seems like a vibe.
