I have been ignoring how bad of a condition my shoes are in because I can’t afford new ones but this is very bad

Please consider helping me buy new orthopedic shoes

I’m disabled and getting injured

Próximamente: "Apariciones", de Adam Pottle, un drama psicológico donde los monstruos son de carne y hueso, y donde los fantasmas son aquellos seres invisibles a los ojos de la sociedad.

Israel is bombing Gaza again. The so-called ceasefire has only made it harder to draw attention to ongoing violence, but Sama'a and her family need us now more than ever.

Working on a novel polish. Hoping this one will find a home, as the story’s a big swing. Disabled protagonist? Check. Dystopian setting inspired by ableist reality? Check. Sex, sex, and more sex? Check. Body horror? Check. Police character whose crimes are avenged a hundredfold? Check. 🤞🏻

It’s depressing that some writers write solely for the sake of climbing ladders and attaining influence, rather than sharing their voices and fostering community and helping others understand the world a little better.

The way some people will twist themselves into Rold Gold Pretzels trying to assert that Frankenstein is not a horror story. As though horror is a dirty genre that diminishes Mary Shelley’s brilliance.

No. Horror shines a brighter light on that brilliance by revealing the darkness in the story.

First draft of my play OUR MOST PRECIOUS DEMONS submitted. Deaf-centred possession horror. Will be read in public in Saskatoon in 2026.

Now to polish my dystopian body horror novel and send it to my agent.

It’s been a long time since I’ve submitted to a magazine, but I have a piece—really, a former novel chapter—that I think might work well as a novelette. I’ve never submitted to a horror mag before, so I’m researching the market, but if anyone has any recommendations, that’d be hugely helpful!

Am gutted to learn that Alice Wong has passed away. She helped shape me in ways I’m still working out. She knocked down the door for so many disabled people, giving us space and permission to share our stories. Her wisdom and spirit will never be forgotten.🤟🏼

I’ve never seen two dogs share a stick the way these two do. A rare moment of calm between them.

Puppy update (pupdate?):

After testing a few names—Egon, Merlin—we landed on his final name: Loki. He is a mischievous little instigator.
Say hello to our newest family member. This is Egon. He is a 15-week-old moyen poodle, and he is a good boy.
