Happy New Year from the left coast!
New Year's fireworks, right outside our living room window and 2.5 hours early.

This was a wild book year! I read about half as many as I usually do but I finally took the plunge into self publishing - under a secret pen name that I'm still keeping secret - while knowing next to nothing about the process. Here's to more of both in 2026!

This year on Bluesky I wrote 881 posts and 756 replies. I received 7,000 likes, whereas 1,265 was from my most popular post, and apparently I love saying "squareword" and 🟩!

I posted my Wordle results but somehow removed the word "Wordle" so it bypassed their mute lists and they had to see it.
What’s the funniest reason someone got mad at you on Bluesky this year?

It would be very cool if, this time next year, I saw one of my books on someone's end of the year reading recap. Doesn't even have to be a "best of" or favorites list, just to have it included would be amazing.

I haven't unpacked my #tiedye supplies since we moved last year and am desperately in need of new shirts since my old ones are literally falling apart. So, I contacted an artist I really admire and she agreed to dye some of my shirts for me. This is one she just finished up & I'm so excited!

It's midnight but I have no idea of what day. Football is on tomorrow which should be a useful clue but isn't this time of year. All I do know is I've written 14k words on a new-to-me genre in the past four days and they might not suck. Maybe. Goodnight, Bsky.

Ha! I wasn't really paying attention to when the Texans game ended and not at all to the beginning of the next game. So much so that I just now realized that the game on my TV was not the Ravens/Packers but a Bills/Eagles replay from 2023 on NFL Network.
