This is the genius of the Portland protests - they make the claims of lawlessness look not just wrong, but comical

Just overheard in a bookshop: “There’s not really a plot. I love that!”

Researching for a historical romance, I came across this gem: "Flagellation. An 18th Century engraving presented to the Royal Society in hopes they could explain the appeal."

Hell yeah! Got the best seat today. I’m staying at the island unit again because supposedly there’s construction work and they can’t rent it out, but the workers only show up for an hour or two and then go surfing 🏄‍♂️ So, I get a free (or nearly free) writing retreat

My Kickstarter launches tonight and I’m so nervous 😬 I haven’t done anything like this before … I guess it’s a learning experience if nothing else .. www.kickstarter.com/projects/opa...

I meant to write “It should be buried like any dead body” but typed “dad” instead of “dead” … Dad bods aren’t my thing but I don’t think they should be buried alive!

I’ve been making opal intarsia for a while now and I’ve decided I want to make ALL the pride flags. If you have a sec and a Kickstarter account please “like” my pre-launch page to boost visibility!

Aren’t crocs basically designed for yardwork? So, who thought grass-sized holes were a good idea?

I missed my train so I get a bonus bayside writing stop. It’s all right

I challenge anyone to find a more pleasant writing environment. There are whales going past.

My English-language spam is like, "Hello Dear, You have inherited $365,829,396.00". My Spanish-language spam is all, "You have been chosen to receive a set of drill bits!" or "You have won a ham!" It's so much more plausible. (I also get Finnish spam but alas I can't read it.)

When I'm not writing, I'm cutting opal gemstones💍💎✨ www.ebay.com.au/str/hypernov...
