I did a hubris, y’all. I didn’t bring any of my mobility or stabilization aids because “I haven’t needed them much for a few months” 🫠 And now I’m hobbling about my hotel room trying to decide if I feel okay enough to venture downstairs into the hubbub.

The first day of #malicedomestic has been amazing. Wish I could do more, but pacing myself so I don’t have a chronic pain flare. Still, got to check in with my peeps of #SINC and go to some amazing panels!

Going out for a stupid little walk for my stupid mental health and now I can’t walk because I’m laughing too hard. Didn’t have gloom getting photobombed by smeargle on my list of things that might happen today, but here we are 😂

Little petrichor addicts enjoying the rain 💕💝 #caturday forever

Sometimes, when I’m feeling down, I just look at this little guy’s face and honestly, things feel a bit better. With him, every day is #caturday

Readers, what’s a story that changed your life?

It’s a bird-watching kind of day.

Warning: this is illegal levels of cute. #caturday

Her name is Hope, ser. She belongs to all who invoke it. #knightofsevenkingdoms

This week the possums are using a spa like a water park while the rest of the crew is planning a heist. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons

I had a dream of the Swedish Chef singing "Take Me to Church" by Hozier. What does it mean?

I like to tuck my children in. Luckily, they like it, too. Wish it was #caturday

My DnD group: doing normal tavern things like playing dice games and drinking. Me: roleplaying as 5 possums in a room above them WWE-style wrestling on a king-sized bed. I'm very fine and normal. #dungeonsanddragons

If you are sad and wondering whether or not there are good places left in the world: go to your local library. Stay warm and stay safe. 🫂

Just a small PSA to maybe order a lead test kit to check your dishes. These plates from my childhood (obviously used a bunch) turned out to have lead in the paint, so that's fun! My vintage Pyrex from my grandmother's collection had lead, as well.

Grimmy love bug wishes you a very happy #caturday! We need to get some serious relaxing in this weekend.

Happy Christmas to all who celebrate, and for those who don't, I'm still sending all my love today and with you a Happy New Year! I hope everyone is having a relaxing and rejuvenating day. 🫂

If you want me, I'll be staring into these eyes all day. #caturday everyday

Why do I get an American Gothic vibe from these two right now? 😂 #caturday all day every day.

Charlie is very much enjoying the holiday season. Check out his box! Happy #caturday!

A lazy weekend over here. Definitely trying to tamp down the small bit of panic at the thought of finishing Christmas shopping. Anyone have go-to gifts that will work for anyone? #caturday

He has absolutely no idea he holds my sanity together with his tiny little beans. Happy #caturday everyone. Get some rest and do some self-care today!

Do you think maybe we're keeping our house too cold this winter? I'm not sure, but I'm definitely also enjoying the cat cuddles. #caturday night's alright for snugglin'.

I'll never get over this face. Is it #caturday yet?

Apparently gramma's crochet shawls were what these boys needed to achieve peace in our times. I love my furbabes. #caturday forever ❤️

I miss snow.

They like each other or something. #caturday can't come soon enough.

They've got their album cover, now what's it's name and top track? 😂 #caturday all day, every day.

What's your favorite animated film made before 1980? Mine is definitely the Sword in the Stone. This is the type of magic I always wanted to be able to do: goofy and useful.

"Help, oh no, I'm trapped." Today is #caturday according to the Grimalkin.

Being a homeowner is tough. Having to find people to fix things is definitely one of my least favorite aspects. For instance, I really don't think this plumber knows what he's doing... (Every day is #caturday)

His little eye freckle makes me so happy. Everyday is #caturday as far as I'm concerned.

Thank dog it's #caturday. Charlie and I needed a break.

Please see this beautiful painting of our boyfriend for #N7day. Human men, step up.

"Keep up" is joining "it had to be me" in my videogame library of instant tear-jerker phrases. 😭 #dispatch you're tearing me apart, #adhoc!

Charlotte and Jack definitely can't cook to save their lives. BUT, they do have the hookup with the local bakery, so you know they're bringing dessert every time! Probably pies. I think they're both huge fans of fruit pies. 😋

Not what I expected but not totally off-base for my novel Once More, With Murder! #FiFRevPit #RevPitFiF #writingcommunity

I forgot to mention that Paula Pell beats the crap out of a property brother in this series. You should watch it.

Girls5Eva might be the best, most underrated show of the past few years. If you haven't checked it out, you should. Weirdly inspiring for us ex 90's femmes 😂

Who else is having a deep-cleaning, intense chore day?

Love a DND one-shot on Halloween. Playing an old man elf and absolutely torturing our GM with him. Anyone else playing games this spooky eve? #dungeonsanddragons

November will never be a novel writing month for me. November is a month for surviving.

One of the best purchases I've ever made was our cat stroller. They get outside enrichment, I get a walk, everyone benefits! Every day is #caturday

Happy #caturday! Here's a picture of my boys enjoying the Big Bed and each other's company, while keeping to their own bubbles. I love them so much. 🥰

Waiting for my email. #revpit #10queries Help me be patient! #Writers what was your favorite book as a child and how has that affected what stories you write?

I'm very curious now about how our favorite childhood movies affect our general preferences as storytellers now that we're writing our own books.

Me out here trying to read and like every #revpit #10queries post. Thank you so much to all the editors who are providing some amazing feedback and tips!

As someone who keeps getting the feedback "too many uncommon words" in my manuscript, this honestly makes me feel a bit better. I JUST LOVE WEIRD WORDS! I was raised by Lemony Snicket, what can I say? 😅 I guess at least e-readers have dictionaries?

If you need another reason not to abuse ketamine, the fact that it destroys your bladder would be high up there on the list for me... Also yes, research for my books has now just become an obsession with toxicology. #thepoisonlab #toxicology #drugfacts
