As a creative, editor and writer - I have dreams of turning my stories into games and comics.

Darlings, a reminder: the world is a messy dumpster fire, but everything that CAN be saved SHOULD be saved.
Every bit of good or kindness matters.
So, love hard. Speak up. Step up. And remember that we have each other. That’s pretty damn wonderful.

Reminder: the world is on fire 🔥
So write the prologue.
Write multiple POVs.
Write in first person, or third person, or whichever POV you like.
Write books that ‘don’t serve God’ (whatever tf that means).
Throw in some f-bombs.
YOU are your primary reader.
Not random people on the internet.

We did our Christmas shopping yesterday (old-school, driving around and buying from local shops, like 1999).
Totally forgot to buy books. So I ordered two from a local bookshop for myself. They might not be here for the holidays to read, but looking forward to having them in my hands. 🥰

"You work in IT? Can you fix this here for free?"
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

Nearly ten years (!) ago, I started a blog of flash fiction. I challenged myself to write one story a month, and there are now some 120 or so stories (!!)
Since December is traditionally a one-a-day kind of month, here are some of my favourites #DecFic (good hashtag, right?)

If you're planning on shopping this cyber Monday, why not consider supporting artists, writers, creators? Buy a book, purchase an indie video game, commission an art piece, gift someone a Patreon. Your support means everything.

Can I
turn the stars
into a symphony,
step across the dark,
build a bridge
with wild grace,
willing hope
from every constellation,
from every root,
just to see what happens
when
the sun sings
to the moon,
and orbits
of hearts
collide—
am I brave it
for all that,
in this messy
universe?
