Some days it’s hard to believe this dog ever spent the first three years of her life in Texas.

I had time to write for what feels like the first time in forever, so of course I cannot focus worth a damn. Ugh.

Realized today as I was trying to put a Christmas list together that the thing I want most is more time.

Why is it that no one seems to know how basic project management works when working on projects with other people?

"Malort advent calendar" is already such an unhinged concept but every little window just having Malort in it really pushes it over the edge into something transcendently funny

Started watching MURDERBOT and now I don't wanna go to work, I just want to watch MURDERBOT, which is pretty much the plot of MURDERBOT.

No panic attack quite like the one where you can’t find your passport the night before an international flight.

Mumford & Sons and Hozier wrote a song produced by Aaron Dessner with these lyrics and it's somehow *not* written especially for me? It's like they heard I was having writing motivation problems and said "We can fix that".

It’s been a shitty fucking week but I managed to hit my word goal today. Please clap.

My main contract gig is being cut, and my family responsibilities are less demanding than a few years ago. So please get in touch if you know of writing/editing/research/workshop positions, any hours, ideally remote or Ottawa. Extra points for good causes. I know it's rough out there for everyone.

Something went wrong during our new kitten Astrid’s spay procedure this morning and she didn’t make it. We are devastated. We didn’t have her for long but she was such a good cat.

My poor sweet baby. I love you and miss you so much.

Exhausted today, but pushed through to 1,156 words. Woo.

Today was a really weird day. Got some not-great personal news. Got some good professional-ish news. And I wrote 4k+ words on my zero draft for new project.

I am vast. I contain multitudes.
