Our vet's office is great - whenever Mutant Cat 2 has to go in for blood work, they keep him warm and cuddly in a cat sling until it's time for us to pick him up.

Pokemon Go forever! Shiny Pokemon are the tiny dopamine hit I need to survive my day job.

For those who like anthology films, check out "Asylum: Twisted Horror and Fantasy Tales" - some very good offerings, including a fantastic send-up of a certain orange dictator. Includes one of the best possession stories I've seen in a while.

RISE FROM THESE DARK WATERS (Bad Hand Books, 2026) is what happens when you write the book you want to read. It's weird AF. It defies genre. It's uplifting, and yet it made my daughter ugly-cry so hard she had to leave the room. I can't wait to share this story with the world.

Like any parent, I love all my book-babies equally...but this one's the child of my heart, and I can't wait to share it with the world!

Most cherished (from early childhood) would have to be my What-a-Mess picture books (the tiny details in the illustrations were fantastic and could keep you entertained for hours).
Most absolutely bonkers would be my father's Eyebeam comics. I was allowed to read anything in the house...

My friend @weerdgrrl.bsky.social beta read an early draft of my forthcoming debut novel, RISE FROM THESE DARK WATERS & discovered I had misspelled "Canyons" as "Crayons" not once, but three times. 🫠
She promised when I sold the novel, she would make me a Crayons cake to celebrate. Here it is!

Shout out to the incredible @themordashin.bsky.social and his wife for the beautiful engraved pen with my name and the title of my forthcoming debut novel, RISE FROM THESE DARK WATERS.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
This is how it's done, folks! Authors celebrating each other's wins!

Happy Birthday Little Person - 19 years ago I became her mother, and I am continually amazed by her intelligence, strength, and kindness, and honored to be part of her life.

Little Person came in 25th in the North American Cup Bouldering competition. Given the calibre of the other climbers there, she's VERY happy with her performance.

Thank you so much @beckylejeune.bsky.social for the invite! Happy to be here with the rest of the horror writing community, just in case that other place implodes.
