Writing on a Tuesday afternoon. #WritersLife #CreativeFlow #ItsAllStory #AmWriting #FountainPen

Deep in the liminal space of an incredible writing flow, and I may, or may not, have used a blunt tip fountain pen syringe to fish the olives and smoked gouda out of my bloody Mary. Desk supply ingenuity.

Walking a friend's dog for added respite from the world.

Last caturday of the month. Time for a nap.

Some days call for embodying the T-800 archetype.

Had the pleasure of a new experience today. Wove a few wefts of a friend's beautiful work in progress. #ExpandYourMind #TextileArt #TryNewThings #LoomWeaving #FabricArt #TheOldWays

Picking up 2 pies from one of my fave pizza shops - Old School in Olympia. The mural along the building is epic! Check alt text for details. #comics #Marvel #art

Liminal space is not empty. It is a living corridor where instincts sharpen and purpose clarifies.

Pay attention to February 20th. The final Saturn-Neptune conjunction occurs at 0º Aries. Saturn-Neptune conjunctions happen rarely, about every 36 years, so this is huge. (The last time Saturn and Neptune came together, the Berlin Wall fell!) #astrology

Checking my coffee mug for holes. There is no way I got to the bottom that quickly!

Prepping to repot some of our houseplants. 🪴 Tomorrow, we tackle getting seed potatoes and garlic into their garden beds. 🥔

Center card is the situation - Two of Wands Left card is the "Don't do this" - Seven of Wands Right card is the "Do, do this" - The Hermit It tells a story of calculated ambition versus reactive defense. Stop fighting small fires and start looking at the horizon. Deck: Luna Sol Tarot #Tarot

“Any great change must expect opposition because it shakes the very foundation of privilege.” ~ Lucretia Mott

Four months ago, my partner began brewing an anti-inflammatory mung bean soup as a steady staple in our kitchen. This morning, I was in charge of the alchemy; coconut milk for silk, chopped celery for brightness, a generous scatter of parsley for green vitality. Mmmm.

My girl took her first lake splash of the year. Then, she brought a few friends over.

Thank you to everyone here. May we keep lifting each other up and recognizing the good that persists, even alongside the chaos.

Good morning, BkueSky. Happy first Caturday of February 2026!

What you see exists because you brought attention to it/its energy.

This is one of my favorite non-fiction reads from January. Jeanette Winterson's , One Alladin, Two Lamps. #BookSky 📚 💙 #reading #storytelling #StoryIsLife

White rabbit, White rabbit, White rabbit!

Happy last Caturday of Jan. 2026

Meanwhile, in the resistance: tiny plastic beings placed in public spaces to restore micro-doses of delight. Morale work. Essential services. Keep on keeping on.

Bluesky, Im glad you're here.

Absolute must-read by @adamserwer.bsky.social in @theatlantic.com "The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common & that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minn all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Foam cartography, gone too soon. This morning's story prompt surfaced in my latte: a small archipelago between cream and porcelain, plus a crescent bay that surely holds a secret. I drank the cliffside citadel before snapping a pic. Oops.

​The moment the biographer’s life and the subject’s continuing presence enter active conversation is numinous. It’s no longer just research; it’s a haunting, a dialogue across time where "then" and "now" merge.🖋️✨ #Archives #LifeWriting #Channeling #CreativeNonFiction #AmWriting #ItsAllStory

Exciting discovery! Mind you, I'm still hoping that we one day find a book written by a medieval housewife describing daily life in detail, especially about all the bathing they did ;) www.bbc.com/news/article...

Wrote a book? Cool, now write the next one. Out on sub? Write the next one. Won an award? Write the next one. Didn’t even get nominated? Write the next one. Querying agents? Write the next one. Waiting for pub day? Write the next one. Always be writing the next one.

Happy Friday, Bluesky. Cheers!

Anyone fancy a cup of jasmine tea? Practicing self-grace is part of resistance. Rest up. Get back at it tomorrow.

Never underestimate the mystical beauty and power of riding through fog-kissed woods.

My neighbor's camera caught tonight's soloist.

This morning, as my dog and II emerged from the fog-hugged woods, we heard this playing as we approached the house. Today's writing theme music. open.spotify.com/track/4AuUlx...

Kicked off my 2026 fiction reading with Ubik. Whew! Workout and snack required.

Looking out towards the New Year and projecting all the best of all good things into it.

The crankiness that hits when life pulls me out of writing isn’t drama. It’s creative whiplash. I’m fine. My imagination just hates abrupt landings.

“How do I have productive days with minimum drama? Simple; I mind my own business.” ― Steve Maraboli #quotes

What books shaped how you learned to think or your perspectives on life? One of them, for me, is Samuel R. Delaney's, The Motion of Light in Water. #BookSky 📚 #writers #creativity #culturallandscape
