Excited to be at #VSS2026 this year! I’ll be presenting at the poster session on Monday morning. Please come by and chat if you’re interested!

No forgiveness is necessary When you/I say we need to Work or I/you say we need Some time away because This is how marriage Works and you/I know That I/you will be back, And like the ocean and The wind and clouds, All love moves in and out And goes forth this way. #vss365 #forgiveness

#VSS2026 cinamatic trailer: One of my favorite parts of science is to tell stories in a less constrained way. So here’s a little movie trailer for my project 🎬 (volume up :)) If you’re interested, come see my poster at #VSS2026 Poster #26.476 — SATURDAY, MAY 16, 2:45–6:45 PM, Pavilion.

crimes in plain sight just another day in Washington #inkMine

something happens to us when things go wrong we react instantly without thinking #forgiveness is far away how do we bring it closer I'm just like you I struggle but I know you want to be happy well live in peace and be free from suffering I've never met you but these things are universal #vss365

One of my stories, "The Preacher" was heavily influenced by AM radio when I was a kid, and the DJs who spun the disk and kept the audience intrigued with their patter and schtick. (link in comments) #pretendpanel #WritingCommunity #Writers #Authors #WritingPrompts

Now I can endure more, carry far more, than I once could. The depth of my #forgiveness has only grown, yet nothing much changes. You rose before me, I stayed a little longer. Now I rise alone, to draw my own curtains. That is what reminds me of us Life without is beautiful, too. ~rev #vss365

All instances of the word "title" are way late in the book, so I opted for "CEO" plus some serious "title" vibes (in the business sense). Cory is negotiating, and his coworker Trey is making life very difficult. #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

The person I become When pain gets the better of me Is not a person I want to be. No excuses, just shame The #forgiveness I ask of others Is something I require of myself Words that I am yet to believe Even when I play them on repeat. Again and again and again. #vss365 #poem

#WIPSnips 'title' I didn't *plan* for Pherul to be a SFF nerd who uses genre conventions and tropes as inspiration in his campaign to protect his new friends, but I wasn't sad when it happened

She was a goodly woman—church 2x a week, volunteered at the blood bank, and made casseroles for the afflicted. A car cut her off and she rode his bumper, horn blaring, until a cop pulled her over. “Mary, I’m shocked. How about #forgiveness?” She smiled. “Tell him to turn the other cheek.” #vss365

But what if we take forgiveness off the table? His question dangles in the silence between us. Unanswered, yet spacious. #vss365 #forgiveness

#vss365 #Forgiveness didn’t ask her to forget. It just asked her to feel him. Really feel him— standing there, afraid and present, choosing her anyway. She reached for the flowers. That was enough. That was everything.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

#vss365 #rerun I let you in and you wounded me. Maybe it’s what we both wanted. You suturing the puckered skin, touching my pain. Black bleeding to soft grays. A closeness that was never supposed to happen. Your nervous fingers tracing my need, and #forgiveness fluttering just beneath the ribs.

#Forgiveness is the quiet rebellion against the tyranny of yesterday. Not erasure, nor approval - but the deliberate release of a poison we mistake for justice. In freeing them, we finally free ourselves. 🕊️ #vss365

“Surely you liked something about Father,” said Ann. Her mother laughed. “He was an #unalloyed bore; had no common sense nor sense of humor. In bed he was necrophilic.” “Mother! Why did you marry him?” “Two reasons: he was rich and—he was there.” #vss365

fingers trace the ache, our forgiveness takes the shape of a rising tide #vss365 #forgiveness #haiku #micropoetry #writing

Life it going to crap. Terrible health. Stress. Things taking a drastic change for the worse. Nowhere to go. *sighs* All I can do is cry. And I know I need to write a poem. To post. But I have no energy. #stress #chronicillness #pain #family #writingcommunity #authorsofbluesky #poetry #depression

After a long wait... I've got a #new #poem up! Felt well enough in the moment to write again. #amwriting #writingcommunity #poetsofbluesky #skypoets #chronicillness #mentalhealth #writersofbluesky #bskypoets #blueskypoetry buymeacoffee.com/wordwitchlif...

Still battling #fatigue/migraines along with my #pain. I spend most of my time just sitting cuz even breathing hurts. Wish I was #writing. I found some past writing from 2011 I want to get back to. It'll be slow due to my health now but something to hope for. #chronicillness #writingcommunity

Thank you.

I've been #quiet. LOTS of #pain. Trying to deal. It's too #cold!! I'll try and get a #poem and a #prompt or two written tomorrow. #chronicillness #diabetes #fibromyalgia #fibro #spine #arthritis #migraine #poetry #authorsofbluesky #writingcommunity

“Would you —?” “You’ve hit your #word count,” his comms device blared. “To continue, please insert more LinguaFrancs.” Muted, he picked at the coins in his palm. Not enough for vowels; double letters were extra too. Damn inflated vocab prices! So he slid the diamond on her finger and hoped. #vss365
