The big 50 looms! Saturday.

And the book of my writing path... is released into the wild.

Joyce (Wolf) Chng/Ch'ng 🐺 @jolantru.bsky.social · Feb 22

1st March is next week!

Wolf's Path is a collection of my stories from the start of my writing path until now. I turn 50 this year.

The collection is unapologetically queer & trans & joyful and angry & painful.

So, for people who are curious -

Dad was hospitalised because (we now know) of an infection gone bad. In turn, his blood sugar is haywire, requiring monitoring.

But he's his usual self, grumpy. :P

Little update. Mostly been off bsky coz I've had some complications involving fevers, bleeding. It's been a rough six weeks, physically, mentally, emotionally. Would have liked to have rested but I gotta pay for the hospital bills and various tests and medications. Anything you can spare will help.

Hi all; I'm going to undergo a significant procedure later this year (sorry, would rather not disclose) and my husband's health insurance doesn't cover it. We're going to need funds for the care during and after. Any help would be much appreciated:

Book recommendation time! It's a day late, but the thing about holidays like Indigenous People's Day is that we need more than a day to dive deep, so these recommendations will keep you in amazing reading material for plenty of time to come.
