Genuinely one of my favorite parenting investments: teaching the kid to cook starting when they were 10 Has led to moments like tonight, where I told the kid to make dinner, lay down for forty five minutes, and woke up to soup.
I will literally never understand the appeal of billionaire romance Like, having sex with one? Whatever. You do you. But FALLING in LOVE with one? No. ABSOLUTELY NOT The only thing I want to fantasize about doing with a billionaire involves a guillotine
ALSO something you can do if you’re strapped for cash! Look for these in a library! And if they’re not there request them! Libraries are baller AND they help authors too!

Where is my cat? All I can find is this weird dome of void
Apparently over on Instagram people are claiming queer men shouldn't write MM again? Like it's a thing that happens periodically I guess? And honestly that's just such a wild take. Imagine feeling so entitled to a genre that you don't think people depicted in that genre should write it????
The fun thing about PTSD is that sometimes when one of your primary triggering people is getting in your face, your PTSD decides to give you 'helpful' reminders of other trauma Like this week, when shitty family stuff was shitty, my brain was like 'hey remember that differently insane thing?'
Mars Watch is FUNDED. So what comes next? www.kickstarter.com/projects/wun... (For one, you can expect me to post about Mars Watch 300% less lol)
PSA from an exhausted enby: looking to write stories with characters that aren't men? This is your periodic reminder that non-binary people also exist! If you hear 'stories that aren't about men' and assume that means 'nothing but women'... that's. That's not great? Actually?

46 hours to go, and we're currently sitting at a total where I get to pay myself 3 cents per word for my writing, and not at all for layout. So it would be awesome if we got that number a little higher in the last hours!

Black flagged at the last lap: Essentially lost a backer minutes after the 72 hour reminder went out, kicking us down from 96% to 93%, though we are back up to 94%. There's only 70 hours left and I'm very tired and just want to fund today. So. you know. Share? www.kickstarter.com/projects/wun...
96% with 71 hours to go, and it would be really great if we crossed the finish line today 😐

I've been staying busy so I can't hit refresh too obsessively this weekend, but it looks like this might go right to the wire (sigh)

This is the FINAL WEEKEND for the Mars Watch campaign. Funding seems to have stalled at 85%, so it would be great if people could share the campaign to give it one last push.

I finally wrote about future genders! Both about how fun, evocative genders create room for non-binary experiences, and about how the inclusion of the Stag is vital for not erasing queer and trans masculine experiences of masculinity, like mine. www.kickstarter.com/projects/wun...
