Unfort. I had an odd kiln fail on the first batch shown on my YT channel and am making the mugs again. ❤️🥾⛺💩

“Take your glasses and your head scarf off,” he repeated, with absolutely zero interest in my fake charm, stolen straight from Steel Magnolias.

Is he expecting Nigeria to be on X and get this memo? Like, is this his official statement? What a dope.

I can see how it would be. Satisfying too, when it's not your own, lol.

Has anyone else watched #Hedda yet?? Tessa Thompson is so damn good! I confess, I turned it off before the ending because I had to pretend to be a responsible adult and I wanted to experience it without distraction. Nina Hoss and Imogen Poots are MAGNIFICANT. Can't wait to see the end. #moviesky

A poised woman stands in the center of a crowded formal gathering, wearing a low-cut, elegant evening gown and layered pearl choker. Her hair is styled in soft waves pinned up. One gloved hand rises to touch a small gun-shaped pendant at her throat. She gazes intently at someone off-screen, expression steady and charged with emotion, while onlookers blur in the background.

Taking a base level course on editing to improve my writing skills. Didn't realize I'd fall in love with it! Put it off for a while bc I thought I'd hate...idk what...discipline maybe? 😬😋

Now I'm thinking about more courses and freelancing in the future. Hell's yeah, baby!

This book is sooooooo good - do not miss it at this bargain price!

🌈 Atmospheric sapphic mystery set from autumn to Christmas 🍂❄️

Full of secrets and suspense. An icy lady of the manor. A cast of characters all intertwined in a small town. Ace rep.

The ebook of The Tell Tale is 0.99 on Amazon until the end of October 🙂
