Happy 13th Birthday to this little snuggler. Phoebe changed my life thirteen years ago and I am so grateful to be showering her with treats today. ❤️

I haven't been reading as much lately as I would like, but I'm thrilled to finally be digging into this one.

No one is more chill during horror movies than Phoebe. She dozes during every single one. It's adorable.

good stretch 🥰

Phoebe is exhausted from the betrayal that is me cutting her hair. Gentle reader, she really needed it.

My best friend since the third grade got us tickets to a live show of My Favorite Murder for my birthday even though my birthday isn't until January! It was EVERYTHING. 🖤

I stopped everything to make this last night and I stand by it. I'm fascinated and delighted how we're both so passionate about words but for different reasons. 🥰

I love when a wedding has a photo booth. Such a lovely memento.

All the cool kids are doing it so I guess it's time to share my awards eligibility list! This year, I have two short stories and two essays out. The second story and essay will be released next month. I'm very proud of everything I've published this year. Would be honored if you'd check them out. 🖤

When you forget to type one of the O's in goods. 😂

Also, is there a way to remove AI mode on Google?

When your Phoebe feels neglected even though you were home wll day so you sit and watch a movie with her.

Does my phone camera have some secret moon setting? Because the top is what the sky looks like now and the bottom is the photo I got when I zoomed in really close on the moon. 👀

Apparently my boyfriend is really good at carving pumpkins and this is how I found out. 🎃
