ICYMI:

Hello all, I'm sure some here are wondering why I've gone quiet lately. The TL;DR: I have Polycystic Kidney Disease for a long time. This year, I was pregnant and gave birth prematurely. And while dealing with the baby's NICU stay, a nephro told me I will need a kidney transplant in 4 years. +

Evergreen reminder, especially if you find these holidays difficult!!!

Little update. Mostly been off bsky coz I've had some complications involving fevers, bleeding. It's been a rough six weeks, physically, mentally, emotionally. Would have liked to have rested but I gotta pay for the hospital bills and various tests and medications. Anything you can spare will help.

A decade after the Paris Agreement, global greenhouse gas emissions are barely rising, up just 0.3% a year since 2015, compared with 1.7% before. buff.ly/JXM4dIv #ShareGoodNewsToo

If you've been wondering how this turned out, I'm doing better. We do need a lot for my care going forward. But in a horrible twist of fate, we were victims of the sudden downpour-turned-flood in Quezon City yesterday—specifically, our house's first floor. Grateful for anything you can spare.

Hey y'all. I unexpectedly needed the operation two days ago. Currently recovering at the hospital and we don't know our total bill yet. Passing the hat around again; anything you can spare would already make me and my husband most grateful

Boosting once again. I've got a little over a month to go before the procedure and at the moment, I've acquired a few more symptoms that put how many doctors I'd need present up in the air

It’sss pub day! MAD SISTERS OF ESI is now out in the US and Canada. To celebrate, Alap and I took a series of truly ridiculous photos at Brooklyn Bridge Park. My baby* is now in New York! (*Technically an ARC of my baby. The final is a beautiful, beautiful hardcover.)

*stares at the word counter for this short story* ISTG this is a short story and not a novelette 🤣

This looks pretty cool!

*sees a clear symptom of something on body* For the love of god, please do not google that

Whenever the “read this/don’t read that” discussion pops up, I like to remind people that the only thing they should read is whatever they like and the only books they should skip are those they don’t like. Read and let read.
