Hey, I'm in Windfall again! Every time, I'm like ... was that ME?

Deej @wordsandlove.bsky.social · Aug 4

I started therapy a month or two ago (took long enough to get there, Deej) and my therapist is a fan of fiction podcasts! They didn't know mine, of course, but we've had some nice chats about it so far. I've recommended two to them - Love & Luck and Tranthologies - as a starting point.

New tattoo! I saw Kiki's flash on Instagram and jumped on it.

I had honestly forgotten that my unnamed Henchman appears in the new season of Windfall. I heard my voice in the background and was like, "Who in this show sounds like me?" :D

This is heartening to see! The resistance is beginning.

I know we are tired. I know we are fearful. But we will make ourselves heard and reclaim this country from the grip of MAGA fascism.

I’ve seen the inside of barbed wire prison camps in America. We came back from that and shall overcome this.

The People’s March is moving through the streets of Washington: “We won’t go back!”

A broad coalition of activists — among them climate, women’s rights, immigration, anti-war, LGBT, D.C. statehood, racial justice — are mobilizing in unison against Trump, three days before his inauguration. 🧵

We told you our MTO short stories were coming! Listen to Phases E1 - Roger - in your podcast apps today, or find it on our website!

"Returning to where we last heard Roger Bragado-Fischer, we find out just a bit more before he leaves his computer …"

The cover art for Moonbase Theta, Out – including the title over a cartoon of a small bunker on the Moon, with a comms tower in the foreground and some meteors in the sky just above. Under the show title has been added, “Phases.” At the bottom of the image is additional text – “E1 – Roger”

The hardest part right now is that I'm really, really missing being held. Which wasn't really happening much for a good while before this as far as at-home cuddles go ... but still. Adjusting to being alone so much is hard.

Deej @wordsandlove.bsky.social · Dec 16

I don't know how much more I can take of this month.

Deej @wordsandlove.bsky.social · Dec 15

And this is one of my favourite parts of S1 - not just because I'm proud of the writing and it's always a joy collaborating with @leemankessler.bsky.social !

Excited to finally announce this! (Even though I'm still writing the December story ...)

I'm really proud of this one.

Monkeyman Productions @monkeyman.bsky.social · Dec 12

We're three days until our next Waiting For October monologue-sode, "Raven" - where our foul fowl (voiced by @leemankessler.bsky.social) tells his story on the monstrous side - or is it Poe's story? Find out this Sunday!

I really had to resist getting art done for my character, since I'm only in one scene this season ... but I WANT it so badly after all the other great stuff Charli did for us!

Monkeyman Productions @monkeyman.bsky.social · Oct 20

I know you've seen these in bits and pieces, but I wanted to show off all the character art we've had done for Waiting For October! Just like our main podcast artwork, all of these were by www.charlivince.com - who is wonderful and so great to work with!
