Officially doubled the number of books for my 2025 reading challenge 💙📚 .

Thanks, car accident, for giving me so much time to read.

Mock book cover I created for The Picture of Dorian Gray 💙📚

Would love to get into book production itself (cover design, typesetting, etc), so I am working on improving my skills during this period of unemployment 😅

Gotta give it Tigest Girma for trying to fill a space in romantasy 🥰

(I've only got like 10 chapters in, so no spoilers, lol)

I'm not one to usually complain about technology or updates, but someone at Samsung needs to pay for whoever thought this was an acceptable new battery icon

Drawing after a concussion is hard, and I've been somewhat avoiding it since the accident.

Not my best work, but I've gotta (re)start somewhere.

Now it's time to rest off the head pain that came with doing it 😬

(I wasn't able to erase the ugly flowers lol)

This medication will fix you.
Existential crises be gone, pain numbed away.
Brand new and brand name.
Promoting drugs with a capitalist agenda.
Seeking patients, not to cure.

Got Persephone's Curse (by Katrina Leno) in #BookMail today!

I have another ARC ongoing, but that's non-fiction and really heavy. I can't do that sort of thing before sleeping lol.

They say that after seven years, your body completely renews.
Only the heart and brain hold cells that last a lifetime.
They will pass along the story of you. Even when my skin is mottled and blue, my body will still desire you.

Advanced copy of They Poisoned the World by @mariahblake.bsky.social came in for #BookMail!

Already enjoying how the storytelling weaves in the information she attained through intensive sources.

Seems promising so far, can't wait to read it!

I'm going to give Our Infinite Stars a ⭐⭐⭐⭐1/2.

The pacing is fantastic, the chapters are short and keeps you up late at night thinking, "Just one more chapter." That will be a lie. The characters are well developed, and the plot twist is unexpected.

Unfortunately, I cannot give a high rating to #TheLastSecretAgent, which I received in my #BookMail.

It felt like I was reading it as an editor.

It's not ready to be published; it contains too many grammatical & formatting errors along with unchecked and inaccurate information.

This is totally fictional and not referencing anyone real, so please don't get the wrong idea & think it's political.

It didn't really belong on my other account, and doesn't really belong here, but I cracked myself up with it a while back. Sorry about the font size.

Disappointingly, the thunderstorm that was foretold for today did not come to fruition.

Half-ass rain and a mucky yard just doesn't have the same creative aesthetic.

Today's word count is 3,914 🙂

Ay, I surpassed my word count goal yesterday!
Goal was 5k, I reached 5,619.
I wonder how many of those 5.6k words were swears, though.
