I whipped up a quick apology tour post for falling off social media without pre-announcing a hiatus. Life was kicking my ass and I didn't realize how long I'd be away! Despite how draining socials can be, I /am/ looking forward to having more time for the blog. corneliaaspen.com/2026/04/22/s...

New post is up! My November crafting challenge is a hand pieced quilt top. thecraftblogger.com/how-to-make-...

This book is sooooooo good - do not miss it at this bargain price!

It is UP. Not to flex (well only a flex if it looks good, which...I'm not a pro, but I'm happy with it!) but not a template! I started by searching torn paper on Pixabay (Creative Commons pics site, my rec for lots of transparent png) (bleet is here for full alt text bsky.app/profile/corn... ) :)

I also spent the first part of this morning making a graphic with more book info because I think my initial post looked naked without something trope arrow thing-adjacent.

Big writing happenings this weekend (short story! also an Announcement, upcoming this week, although of course I can't hint more or I would be Announcing the Announcement)

I've been thinking about how to make this body of work accessible to people who aren't on my Patreon, and I've decided that after the year ends (early 2026), I'll bundle all of my 2025 review together and pub them for the price of a month on my Patreon ($4).

I've been pondering upon it and I think today is the day I go ahead and make a post for my book! I've been thinking it was a little silly to hashtag promo something to my less than, um, ten followers 😅 but as I continue to use the site it feels weird not yet having a post for my creature 📖

Despite it all, folks are still out here making horny/romantic trans stories and sharing them on Itchio. Almost all of the collections got an addition or two today! (And I'm actively adding more.) Now is the time to check your favorite list! www.darkchibishadow.com/post/my-tran...

This big (approximately 42"x28") rag rug tapestry got pulled off Grandpa's loom today. It still needs to be washed and prepped for hanging, but overall I'm pleased with it. It's version 2 of a piece I wove about a year ago called "Almost Home".

#Romancelandia What are some of your favorite small & indie publishers that focus on Romance? There seem to be a fair number of them for Science Fiction & Fantasy & Horror & a few for Mystery, but I'm not seeing them for Romance. If they're out there, I'd love to know.

In book-related updates I haven't finished A Fate Forged in Fire yet; yesterday I was at the thrift store and picked up a Harlequin Intrigue called The Pirate Ghost (among other books). I'll take a photo of that one at some point.
