I absolutely adored this book when I picked it up in high school and took so many lessons from how it portrayed the story of King Arthur from different female perspectives. I used to list it as my favorite book before I learned more about the author. It’s no longer a favorite.

January draft progress, to hold myself accountable. Hunters 3: page 20, 10,712 words Did I write all that today, no, I’m working on a draft I’ve previously poked at. Progress is progress. #writing

Forgot to say that the new Ronin Warriors (Samurai Troopers) is a direct sequel to the old series where humanity has prepared for it to happen again and the old team are hailed as heroes with promo posters and everything. This series has no business being as good as it is. I’m excited!

Happy Bean Counter and Ronin Warriors day!

Don’t forget, I’m still looking for votes as to which old school yaoi anime I should tackle on the blog next month! www.patreon.com/posts/146752...

Welcome to 2026! Time to refresh those TBR lists and here’s a bunch of more coming out this month! wellarethey.blogspot.com/2026/01/upco...

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! I had lots of yummy pasta and bought myself a new book ❤️

Hey, it’s my birthday. So I’m sharing my ko-fi if you’re so inclined. Honestly it’ll probably go to warm pasta tonight in celebration ko-fi.com/wellarethey

Somehow finished three of these over the holiday weekend. #silksong #embroidery

Woke up this morning loving that a new Animal Crossing update is coming out this month. But also, hating that I NEED another Animal Crossing update. Again.

Oh hey, I did one of those Year in Review things for my blog… wellarethey.blogspot.com/2026/01/2025...

Making a thread of stuff I’ve made in 2025… Made some clothes and altered some already existing dolls. #metaphor #arcane #gachiakuta

Have a lil baby Jabber on this quiet day between holidays…..

I did it. I went out and shoveled. Even if it’s still snowing. All so I don’t have to wake up stupid early and do it before work tomorrow. Go me.

All done!! It’s so cute!

Today I’m playing with one of the Christmas gifts I got from wifey ❤️❤️ In spite of the packaging this is not a 3D puzzle. It is in fact a little wooden model kit, which I love!

Made a poll to help me decide what old school yaoi to watch and review next year. Help me by voting? www.patreon.com/posts/146752...

Merry Christmas to myself and wifey from Half Price Books. We hit 4 locations yesterday and got a lot of good titles to add to the library.

Ooops. Tried and fell into Yellowjackets. Well, not a terrible way to start the weekend, especially since we also plan on watching 10 Dance and Heated Rivalry….

Day after Christmas and it’s a great time to read a wholesome omegaverse manga about finding your place in a comfortable and accepting home. My review for Hate Me, But Let Me Stay is up! wellarethey.blogspot.com/2025/12/hate...

Finished this fluffy bug yesterday! Now onto Lace #silksong #embroidery

Finished up the Zanka ‘nyanka’ for my wifey to go with her Jabber. Might have gone a little overboard on the back of the jacket…. #Gatchiakuta

The best thing about being an author is when your work reaches this point and you get to hold it in your hands for the first time! Spending the holiday weekend looking over the proof. Link to preorder in my bio ❤️📚🌈

Since holiday break has been activated I really should use the time to reintroduce my Black, queer, magical girl book series to the world, especially since I’m finishing up the third book. Saying it out loud so I actually do it 😅

Got a small box in the mail. It has been claimed by both kittens. Both kittens who are too big for said box.

Finished off the night with The Devil Wears Prada and then side tracked over to Hackers. Was an awesome movie day.

Also made grandma’s turtle cookies!

Having a girl weekend. Girly movies and a charcuterie board and Kraft and hot dogs for dinner ❤️❤️ Started with Pretty Woman and now on Waiting to Exhale

Wifey and I played a really effective game of Monopoly tonight….

Something something you can’t bury the past? My review for the 2025 version of I Know What You Did Last Summer is up! wellarethey.blogspot.com/2025/12/i-kn...

Hello Chicago friends! It’s looking like we may be in town next year during Pride (so end of June). Any tips for a Black, queer author, on bookstores to potentially hit up for book stuff (signings, readings, ect.) or Pride events for writers?

Diving in! #booksky

Monday reminder that indie books make great gifts and you should get your orders in to get stuff in time for the holidays. Snowtigra.etsy.com

MossMother is done! On to the next bug! #silksong #embroidery

Turkey work embroidery on MossMother while watching “Action Action Man” movie Olympus has Fallen. #embroidery #silksong

The Apple series was so fun I went and got all the books and to my delight they were also awesome so I have a new fandom now!! #murderbot #secunit #theriseandfallofsanctuarymoon #tmbd #themurderbotdiaries #marthawells #fanart #noAI #antiAI #processvideo #artprocess #artistsonbluesky

For this week’s review I got a chance to read a preview copy of the first volume of I Love Amy. In the mood for a ‘why isn’t she stalking me?’ Love story? wellarethey.blogspot.com/2025/12/i-lo...

Am very excited for Resident Evil coming out, plus two ‘new’ Tomb Raiders plus Lego Batman and the Coven of the Chicken Foot game. I wanna play all of them and I’m not usually the one who plays. 😍🤩😍

This one really does look like it could be fun. Very. lollipop Chainsaw and No More Heroes vibes

Gotta make it to 2026 so I can see the '90s smackdown between Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat on the big screen all over again.

Nice cozy night of embroidery and bad ass game trailers. #thegameawards #silksong #embroidery

Sherma! #embroidery #silksong

Made my wifey a plush Nyabber for Christmas, thanks to our new obsession with #gatchiakuta #jabber #WongerWednesday

Thanksgiving may be over but lets dream about the amazing food all over again with this selection of Cooking Gays. Blog 🔗 on image or in profile.

Put up our little half tree in the library this year cuz the kitty playpen for Del is in the normal spot for the big one. So how many fandoms can you spot in this picture?

That. Is the bag my CPAP machine goes in when I travel. But apparently, I guess, it’s hers now. #cats

Clap for me. I just fixed our toilet by replacing the fill valve while watching a YouTube video. I feel pretty handy right now.

Watched Brightburn 🎥 finally last night. Really liked it, even knowing the ‘twist’. Honestly, I would kinda love a cinematic universe of this, just villain origin stories all brutal and creepy.

The rating post-its also came in!
