Had my PIP assessment on the phone this morning and have been absolutely dead for the rest of the day. The whole system needs to change 🫠

So I forgot to take my meds this morning bc I was desperate to shower before I saw the nurse...by the time I got home the fibro and the wound were peak throb, and it took all day for meds to get the pain under control 🥲 I have my PIP assessment tomorrow. Watch them tell me I'm not disabled enough.
I am genuinely so tired today. I feel like I had energy when I woke up, but just going down stairs ate that up. Might spend the day lying down jotting notes in phone memos. Anyway, what's everyone else doing during this storm season? 😅 #authorsky #writersky #writingcommunity

It's been a week of puppysitting and I'm finally looking at Queer Welsh Gothicky Thingy again and realising I was stuck because I need to hard shift into traumatised gays being happy together and 🥲 ffrinds, I dont know if I can deal with the feels. #authorsky #writersky #writingcommunity
Lovecraft: All the birds had flown away, save only the great, grotesque penguins. Me: How can you possibly have beef with penguins, my dude??? They're PENGUINS???😫 #booksky #horror

Lovecraft: It would be tedious as hell to describe our exploration of this weird fortress city we found in the Antarctic. Also Lovecraft: Anyway here's a detailed account of our exploration using variations on the same words for as many pages I damn well feel like. Papa's getting paid by the word 💅
I've been babysitting Merl and not around my laptop to do book or website stuff. Decided to take up my old hobby of making random book covers for things that don't exist in Canva. What do we think? Worth putting up on my Ko-Fi as a premade? Feels like a good thriller cover 🤔 #authorsky #writersky
Just had to ask my nurse to open her office window because she had a pumpkin spice wick diffuser going 🥲 I swear big cinnamon has a conspiracy to murder my ass 😂
It’s getting too cold to adventure outside, so let’s have an adventure inside 👀 #scifi #bookrecs #booksky relinks.me/B07XW4XQLN
Self-care is looking at what you were going to post today, realising that you absolutely do not have the energy to have sensible conversations about the topic, and deciding you'd rather just chill in your nest today 💙 I woke up and chose peace 😌 #authorsky #writersky #writingcommunity
On the one hand, it is kind of sad how many conversations I have with bots these days. On the other hand, the brownie recipes give me dopamine 😌
Fun question for writer and reader, ffrinds, today: What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever read? Book, article, poem? 🤔 If you can, drop a link, if not, what struck you as weird about it? Did you love it, or hate it? 👀 #booksky #writersky #authorsky

I've been having a look at the social media of some people I know sell numbers and... one of them is straight up posting almost the exact same thing like 20 times a week 🫠
I haven’t posted a goal for Queer Welsh Gothicky Thingy … because the midpoint still alludes me. I know where I’m going, but it's a lot of new stuff, and finessing what I’ve already planned. Very happy I’m doing this now, rather than when it’s all written in words I like 🥲 #authorsky #writersky
GIVEAWAY TIME! To help boost interest in Project Tasman, I am giving away a paperback copy of the book! How to enter: Post a screenshot below of you shelving Project Tasman on your favorite reading app. (Goodreads, Storygraph, Indie Story Geek, Pagebound, etc.) Links for these in the next post.
Bore da, fy ffrinds! What are we scheming for this chilly ass week in October? 👀 I want to try to balance Queer Welsh Gothicky Thingy planning with some website work, 'cause I need to stop avoiding it every time Wordpress does something to pmo 😂 So one problem a day. Tick list at the ready! Gogogo!

When I eventually publish this website I am working on, y'all have got to be nice and ignore the menu freak out between tablet and mobile size. Wordpress is an absolute nuisance 🫠 #authorsky #writersky
How’s everyone’s week gone? Did you manage to do the do? If not, what nice thing are you doing for yourself? Cos in this house we do hugs for fails 🫂 ...and watch the Silent Hill movies with an unknown quantity of ice cream 😌 #authorsky #writersky #writingcommunity
It's been a helluva day, so I am tucked up watching carrie with coffee and mikado 😌 see you when the world is less banana pants 💙
As this lovely creature drawn by @shadowfaerieammy.bsky.social states, please buy my book. If me asking nicely isn't cute enough chibi is Ko-Fi (signed books!): ko-fi.com/anotherindie... Itch: anotherindiewriter.itch.io/project-tasman Amazon (tiny orange banner pls!): www.amazon.com/Project-Tasm...
Me, going through the current draft/plan of Queer Welsh Gothicky Thingy checking on the arc of Idris and Caradog's relationship: 🧐Yes, yes ... I think we're almost at the point where a misunderstanding could get one right in the feels. #authorsky #writersky #writingcommunity
