It's come to my attention that some people have received AI-generated emails about collaborating with me and/or my agent. I have not and would never send out those emails. If you get one...it's NOT ME!

Little Mari again tries to convince Krampus that toast is better than kids
(Krampus enjoys the odd bit of toast, but naughty children are just slightly more tasty)

This is where I live - the Marshwood Vale here in Dorset, England. No snow today but a frost that's permeated my toes.
'In the Bleak Midwinter'. A poem by the English poet Christina Rossetti. Published as 'A Christmas Carol' in 1872.
Beautiful words.

Romanian cuisine unveiled: three essential cookery books. Cookery books as a gateway to Romania’s regional flavours.
Three books, along with their translations in German, Dutch, Hungarian and Romanian, reveal how people cook at home, their daily dishes and their feasting customs. Time to order them.

Whereas where I’m from, all hell breaks loose when we get a quarter inch of snow and everyone rushes the Kroger for bread and milk. 😂
My coworkers: it's freezing
Me: it's 43 degrees, I don't even need a coat
Them: what is wrong with you
Me: I come from a place much much colder than this
Them: that's right. So when we close for a half inch of snow?
Me: I think that's adorable. Call me when it's 3 feet.

I'll be screaming into the void if you need me.
Just let teens have their own thing. Just leave them their books. They bitch and moan that teens don't read and then go edit them out of their own books.
*endless screaming*

One of my favorite authors was the gentle & wise E.B. White. I think about something he wrote a lot these days, "Hate, it has caused a lot of problems in the world, but has not solved one yet". May we all choose love over hatred, love over fear, love over self-interest.

1/ Last week, the FDA announced it’s removing the black box warning from menopause hormone therapy (MHT). This is long overdue. Menopause is universal, yet misunderstood and stigmatized. Millions of women have suffered because of fear, misinformation, and a system that wasn’t built to support them.
