Thank you to my friend who brought to my attention this review of Ananconfabulation in Locus Magazine. What a neat surprise!
A vet visit, you say? Suppose I’ll just hide in here until the human gives up and goes without me.
Made a teeny friend the other day. About half an inch long (still a baby) but fearsome nonetheless!
When you add the salt like you’re supposed to, the focaccia turns out as tasty as it is pretty.
I always wondered why Klingons wore platform boots…. Until I saw this similarity! 😱😱
Note the funky hair and forehead piece vs Klingon hair/forehead. And the shoulderpads!
I’m getting better at sushi rolls. Not great, but better. Pictured: spicy tofu and cucumber rolls.
A very aesthetic veggie quiche. 🍅🌱🌶 Here’s hoping it tastes as good as it looks.
His name is Phil, or occasionally Philbill, so really I guess this GIF was doubly right. 😂
This is the boy who went to the Cat Doctor and, when I asked if he might have a neurological problem for how much he falls off of stuff, was instead informally diagnosed with Clumsiness.
Maybe some cats, but Phil says “How do I know it’s not food if I don’t try?”
Maybe it’s telling me I need to work on some smol fiction this year? 🤔 Anyone else get a good word?
Sort of late to celebrate this, but here’s my contributor copy of The Skull & Laurel #4, which includes my weird alien world story, Prostheses.
Got a story coming out next week! Oh, and this, too! Come see me read on Story Hour (@storyhour.bsky.social) Wednesday, July 30th. I promise it’ll be fun AND weird. 😁
Obviously the new chair was selected for the comfort of the cat. *Obviously.*
My writer buddy knows that daydreaming is an important part of the creative process.
