I write science fiction, fantasy, and horror novels. You can find out more about my work at www.shannonknight.net.
Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror by Shannon Knight. The background fades from orange to pink and is covered with purple clouds. Atop that are four book covers of books by Shannon Knight. Domestication has cover art by Savanna Mayer. A ram is being sheared with a canine skeleton emerging in a comic style art that is very creepy. Wish Givers cover art by Elizabeth Peiró. A realistic illustration depicts a Polynesian woman covered in tattoos smiling up at the viewer. She is surrounded by a ring of fire and an upward spiral of ghosts. The colors are gold and violet and the image fantastical. Insiders cover art by Isabeau Backhaus. A realistic illustration shows a young woman with white hair floating in space. She is wearing a plant suit and surrounded by a ring of plants. Grave Cold cover photo by Kiselev Andrey Valerevich. Close-up photo of a beautiful woman covered in frost wearing dramatic makeup. The colors are violet and pink. Protect the Dead. www.shannonknight.net

I don't know all the rules! But I've seen people talking about trying to hoard out-of-production perfumes, and how it's a gamble. And evaporation exists, too.

Oh! Also, I got into perfume samples only recently because it struck me how easily anyone might lose their sense of smell, since that's a fairly common Covid side effect. I thought I'd better do it now while I still can! So, really, enjoy yours! She wants you to, too!

You HAVE to wear it! They're not eternal. And temperature or light can alter the chemistry, so consider it required. I'm wearing mine while writing with no one else to appreciate it but the cat!

So I can rarely leave home. I basically live in bed or at my desk. (Thanks, Long Covid!) But I'm now transported with the most delightful fragrance. And Donnatella Perfumes is legit, with incredible prices.

I decided on my first full bottle of perfume. I went to check prices and found the manufacturer doesn't even sell it on this continent, but I found a store in Florida selling it for a fraction of the retail price. I couldn't believe it. Checked online reviews, and they're like: No, it's legit!

Apparently there are multiple far right groups that use frogs to represent themselves--a thing I didn't know till a guy I'd never heard of was clarified as being part of one frog sect. But I digress.

The first Portland frog said he dressed as a frog because he likes frogs. That's Portland. Fin.

When it rains heavily, Little Bat meows really loudly. I'm not sure what my little buddy wants me to do about it.

The only kind of climate change I can approve of 😌
Two big red cats circle a terrified hog encased in ice. The cat's tails are flames and melt the ice partially, exposing some pig butt and giving it a singe. "Uh-oh Step-Pig, I'm Stuck...!" ok I made the joke for you so you don't have to. Hot ham smoke emits from the pig and spells "BECOME AN" and melted ice on the bottom spells "ICE-FREE ZONE"
