Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

Spite fueled me to work on my debut novel, where I poured in all the fury, anger, sadness, confusion, rage and pain that I started feeling at 14 after I bled for the first time and began experiencing period shame, stigmatization, gaslighting and more.

Blood Price is the result.

By the way, it's National Editor Appreciation Day.

Nobody ever reads a great article and thinks, "Dang, that was some tight editing." But editing is a big part of how it got to be great.

So writers, if you've ever worked with a good editor, shout 'em out.

Writers — the ones you know and love, the ones you think of as successful — have sources of income outside that book you read. Most of us are a half-step ahead of the landlord at best, and struggling to maintain health insurance. We figure out other ways to make a buck.

Because K-Pop Demon Hunters has become one of those movies I put on whenever I just need something running in the background, I wanted to draw Huntrix again, and this time chose their outfits from Golden.

#Art #KPopDemonHunters
Huntrix from K-Pop Demon Hunters, in a minimalist style. They are wearing their outfits from Golden and passing next to each other. Mira is wearing a black top with a short white jacket over it and a black and white skirt with black stripes. She is also wearing white boots. She has one hand on her hip and the other down her leg. Rumi is wearing a white top with a black short jacket over it, as well as white shorts and one high white boots. She has both hands on her hip, which is cocked. Zoey is turned slightly away, looking over her shoulder, and is wearing a gold and black top with a short white jacket over it and a white and gold skirt, alongside white boots. One hand is resting behind her, while the other is on her leg.

I, like most others, quite enjoyed K-Pop Demon Hunters, so I wanted to draw Huntrix.

#Art #KPopDemonHunters
The trio from K-Pop Demon Hunters, in a minimalist style. They are standing next to each other with their weapons out. Zoey has her back turned to the camera and is looking over her shoulder, while wielding 3 throwing daggers in each hand. Rumi is standing casually, one hand resting on her sword. Mira has her hips cocked and her glaive behind her back, up near her shoulders.

Some more old art of my Star Wars OC Leigh Vanukar. The last one is her in an AU, she would never lol. I've really got to get back to finishing some stuff digitally.

#art #starwarsoc
Leigh leaping in pursuit of a criminal Leigh in a canoe, navigating the waters. Sometimes she prefers older methods of travel Leigh after training, trying to get control of her dead arm. Leigh in an AU where she's a crime boss (though it's very much a robin hood sort of style to help the disenfranchised). She's all dressed up for Halloween.

19% turned into 59% overnight that's two months paid for and some help towards the next month. So that's amazing in just a day of having this up.

I know things are tough all around so it means a lot that people are willing and able to help.

Update.

So. There are 38 days left in 2025.

I am 39 books away from selling 2000 books this year. What in the actual hell. This is so far to have come. Thank you all.

(That only works out to about $1400 because of sales & stuff, but that's still my best year ever.)
A chart of sales by year showing 39 in 2016, 6 in 2017, 2 in 2018, 33 in 2019, 4 in 2020, 99 in 2021, 9 in 2022, 59 in 2023, 174 in 2024, and 1961 in 2025

I feel like at least in leftist US spaces, we all sort of know Thanksgiving is an iffy holiday with fucked up roots. The problem isn't just cultural attachment, though; it's that for many working Americans, this is the longest stretch of time you get off without having to take PTO.
