My sling G. Pulchra (favourite T species) has darkened so much since their last molt. I’m in love. 😍

Philomena Cunk is the best character Diane Morgan has ever played. 😂

Fibro flares fucking SUCK.

Gotta stop crushing on my mum’s friends. 😵‍💫

I miss having the confidence and energy(!) to write. 🥲

It’s boiling in October because you’re using ChatGPT to write your emails, Janice.

I’m going to focus my attention on writing a short, seasonal story in hopes of getting over whatever writing funk I’m in. Just gotta decide whether it should be fanfiction or original material. 🤨

The hardest part of my morning routine is not crawling back into bed. #relatableart #morningstruggles #sleepycoffee #funnyillustration #mondaymood #tiredgirlsociety #fblifestyle

Hahahah FUCK. 🥲

Chronic illnesses are difficult enough to navigate without high pain, low energy days. 💤

Watching the first episode of Monster: The Ed Gein Story. Should I quit while I’m ahead? I’ve seen lots of people saying it’s sick.

I have the sweetest pup. 🥹

It’s October which means that I can finally say… I have surgery this month. 🗣️

Getting ready for bed and decided to check on my Pet Rocks™️ (the tarantulas). I was noooot expecting to find Pumpkin freshly moulted, and Parker flipped, going through their moult. 🥹😍

Bought flowers for my cashier in the shop and she almost cried. 🥹

Disabled people aren’t “less than”. It’s not a moral failing. Most people will experience disability at some point. It’s a minority group you can join at any time. We need more accessibility, inclusion, accommodation and compassion. There’s no social justice without disability justice.

I want a penpal. :(

EEG wiring removed. Hot shower and new pyjamas pending. 😍

The air is chilly, I’m making fruit crumbles, and my kitchen smells of apples and cinnamon… I think it’s time to rewatch Gilmore Girls. 🍂

There’s something about wholesome interactions with strangers—sharing smiles, compliments—that feels like pure magic. ✨

The smallest things make my day. Passed a female bus driver and both times we looked at each other, we were both beaming. 🥹

I guess this book won’t plan itself. 🤓

Happy birthday to perhaps my favourite character I’ve written to date. 🥳

Question to anybody who has undergone general anaesthetic — how would you describe the feeling to somebody who hasn’t, but soon will? Spoiler: it’s me, hi.

I’m recovering from disordered eating by taking notice of things like protein, but my goodness, if there was ever an excuse to eat ice cream, now is that time. These cramps are brutal. 😭

Nothing better than blasting Taylor Swift through your headphones at an ungodly volume. 👌🏼

Self harm urges are so SHIT. 🫠

I have… too many Instagram accounts. All for different things. But I’ve finally bought paint markers to decorate rocks at the beach with affirmations, and I’d really like to set up an account for it. 🥹

Me 🤝🏼 shoving every ounce of trauma from school into my WIP. I cannot wait to make myself cry.

Writers — any advice on what to do when you lose motivation for your WIP? I’m considering planning another book, but not sure if that’d be a wise move or not. 🫣

I’M A YEAR CLEAN FROM SELF HARM!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I don’t care what anybody says — if you zoom into tarantulas’ eyes, they really do look like the 🥺 emoji.

If you’re somebody who, like me, struggles to talk to and be kind to themselves, I highly recommend setting a picture of little you somewhere visible. Might seem silly, helps a lot with remembering who you’re talking to, and treating. ❤️‍🩹

HOW IT STARTED HOW ITS GOING

It's taken months but tonight, I've finished writing the thirteenth chapter of my WIP. ✨

PMDD has me this 🤏🏼 close to relapsing.

It’s been 361 days and the urges are really urging. 🥲

Waiting for a date for my op is exhausting. 💤

It feels impossible to write regularly/routinely when my chronic illnesses and disabilities work against me. 🥲

Introducing my third and final tarantula, who completed the family when they arrived this morning! Meet Picasso, the juvenile G. Pulchripes. 🥹

My juvie tarantula arrives later today. Who wants pictures? 😍

Leftover birthday cake for breakfast. 🫤

It’s my 28th and I’ve never felt less celebratory. 😂

Ah, yes. The pre-birthday breakdown. 🙂‍↕️

Can I adopt somebody as a big sister? It’s times like these that I’d really benefit from having one. 🥲

I’ve shaved, moisturised, changed into clean pyjamas, and now I’m tucked up in bed with a cup of tea, ready to write. Bliss. 👌🏼

In two weeks, both of my tarantulas have moulted for the first time in my care. I’m doing something right. 🥹

WordHippo, my beloved.

The question is do my last posts make coherent sense and the answer is no. I’m really just out here thinking aloud. 😂

Ever since starting my WIP last year, I’ve been trying to figure out what’s different with this project in comparison to others in the past. There’s something holding me back from writing consistently and valuing my work as worthy or ‘good enough’.
