Did you know that the static you hear between radio stations and the noise you’d see on older televisions when programming ended (it used to be A Thing, young folk!) is partially made up of the literal radio signals emitted by the ACTUAL BIG BANG
I’m absolutely buzzing today to get to announce the sale of my new novelette “I Want You With Me at the End of the World” to @reactorsff.bsky.social! This story is about fractured hearts, rifts in reality, and trying to heal enough to survive a world crumbling around us.
This is a Willow Appreciation Post. Please appreciate Willow.
She is! Her sister is also very precious. (Willow loves her beanbag)
This is Tara. She joins me every night whilst I brush my teeth and sits in this exact spot. It is our nightly routine before she gets her milseag (dessert/pudding aka Dreamies) and tucked in I always wonder if she thinks I’m purring because of the electric toothbrush
This one was my first one, actually, but I panicked because I have a thing about the animals and didn’t realise it was the acronym 😮💨
Happy Solstice, everyone! As of three minutes ago, the wheel has turned past the zenith of the cycle. North or south, winter or summer, I’m wishing you all joy and peace.
Willow says hello from under cosy blankets
I overdressed for my friend’s housewarming tonight, but it was such a lovely evening chatting and drinking mulled wine. 🍷 Friends and warmth in the darkest month are so welcome. ✨
Put the system on trial is indeed my moral philosophy
She vogues, she Sistine Chapels, she Tarabesques
It’s awards eligibility season in publishing, and I’d be honoured if you would consider All the Stars in the Daylight Sky in your reading for YA novels (Andre Norton Nebula, Lodestar, Locus). I’m immensely proud of this book: a love letter to my Gaelic culture and our intergenerational bridges.

Turning 41 means eating breakfast for the inner child ✨🍑
Me to Willow: fine, sniff away, but salt and vinegar crisps are not for kitties and you won’t like them Willow: eats it and tries to swipe more immediately This backfired
This might be the best artistic design joke/pun in Hades 2

Sometimes this little old lady baby cat sits on my chest, gives me hugs, and then will very thoughtfully lick my cheek just once Her name is Willow. Pls tell her how good she is.
