This is cookie, the foodie cat, watching my daughter make toast, begging for a taste of butter.

It’s my birthday today! To help me enjoy this lovely day, will you post garden and pet photos please? :) Thank you!

Whatever you’ve accomplished today, Cookie is proud of you.

A break from the dark and windy days of early spring: these cats are enjoying an amazing afternoon of sunshine and gentle breezes. We’re hoping for a lot more, soon.

Good morning! New day, new week. I hope you make it great.

PS @drunemeton.bsky.social: the writers (cis, trans, and nonbinary) in this pack help understand and deconstruct misogynist problems, and their _intersectional_ feminist journalism, fiction, TV scripts, screenplays, media criticism, legal analysis (&more) often offers solutions.

I finally have proof that cats are magical.

She thinks she’s hiding… (Yes this was a supervised activity)

I'm playing novel teeter-totter this week - my word count has not changed, but readers can see my story now - there's description, and the characters all have clothes now (haha they did before but did I know what they were? Nooooo.)

How’s everyone doing today? I’m wishing I was still at WFC. Had a great time last week!

I love writing conventions for many reasons, one of which is meeting people whose text I read —their stories, their social media posts, writing community posts, etc. Even when it is just listening to their wonderful voices, it feels magical. (Yes, I know, thank you science.)

in 90 MINUTES I'm going to be moderating a panel abt Quiet Spec Fic w/the extraordinary @jenniferhudak.bsky.social , @jennahanchey.bsky.social , and P.H. Low! Come chat with us at @flightsoffoundry.bsky.social ! flights-of-foundry.org/program-3/
