Savvy observers may suspect I’m some kind of mathematician. While correct, this is a part of my tragic backstory I’m doing my best to move on from.
Art & writing NSFW / be 18+ please

Hey guess what? I’ve donated one of my works to this fundraiser as well. I generally do not sell my embroidered art - if you’ve ever desired it from afar, this is one of the only chances you’ll ever have to own a piece of it.

seeing a romance novel with my name on it in the IAH airport bookstore. Well, with -a- name corresponding to me, anyway. Probably not the same name I write centipede monsterfucking porn under.
