loved this one!

whew, no idea where 2025 even went! life has sure been lifing and I've been pretty much absent from social media these past few months (which I'm hoping to remedy!), but there's been a lot of good as well. happy new year all, and here's to a gentle and creative 2026!

love this!! happy new year 🩷🎉

reread Kafka’s Metamorphosis recently

Happy winter birding season! I do a lot of birding and had the wonderful opportunity to visit this family of 8 trumpeter swans. Look at these beautiful birds!

I like this story a lot, if I may say so myself, and this makes me so happy! thank you 🩷

I'm drawing every day but mostly for projects that are in progress so I'll probably use this year's #ArtAdventCalendar event to look back at my favorite drawings I did this year, starting with this one! I had the idea of the outline of a white cat against a garden and it slowly evolved into this.

a lovely review of @bafflingmag.bsky.social's latest issue -- absolutely stoked to see my short story "At First Blush" get reviewed downthread as "fun and heartwarming" 🚀👽💗 please check it out, along with the rest of the issue! thank you so much for your kind words, Charles!

so this happened: I made first place of the @officialqwf.bsky.social's carte blanche prize with my poem "heart made of bees," and got to bring this beautiful trophy home last night! still feels unreal, and I couldn't be more grateful for this recognition. more on this as soon as I catch my breath 🩷🩷

sooo excited to announce this! what an honour, especially for my very first poetry publication 🩷

Day 28 - ads I’ve been sitting on this sketch since may 2024. It was part of a recreate ads with your oc challenge- I’ve finally finished it! 🔥 #Cybtoberpunk2025 #Cybtoberpunk #cyberpunk #cyberpunk2077 #cyberpunkv

every book release you are allowed one (1) senseless, time-consuming project to manage your anxieties, and this time it's: embroidering this goodwill blazer to sort of match my cover 😂

for better or for worse, I've traded my dependence on the em-dash for the semi-colon over the last couple of years or so! it's so versatile and it makes me feel fancy 😌

so excited about this, and look at that amazing cover!

I'm terrible at this self-promotion thing but my first poem came out in carte blanche recently! bees, cityscapes, gratuitous anatomical imagery, and above all, hope and healing 🐝🩷 I'm very proud of it so please check it out!

There are so many amazing book and story recs in this thread. Please check them out, boost them, follow the authors! I’m glad the newest Worldcon mess led to this. I think it’s cool when we lift up the things we love instead of complaining that not everything is for us (hot take, I know).

CACKLING. totally one of the main characters in my novel in progress.

I'm just stunned. queer people and stories are being systematically suppressed but sure, let's throw them under the bus because of ... compulsory sexuality? poor male characters being relegated to the background of stories that aren't about them? idek what the argument is supposed to be.

I'm STOKED and doubly so because my mom told me it's now her favourite show 🩷 getting her the first three books for her birthday next month!

BLEASE 🙏🙏🙏

finished the main quest of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and I have SO many feelings I don't know what to do with them

somehow it's already the last day of June: the bad news is, I'm nowhere near done with my novel (oops). the good news is that I've at least managed to clear the deck, so I want to do as much progress as I possibly can in July.
