I probably shouldn't start yelling "hey if you use XXXX in-car navigation systems their maps might get worse soon because they're replacing a bunch of human labor with ai bullshit" but I sure want to

Botching a mass layoff like this really adds insult to injury and evaporates any potential good will any of us would have had for here

Everyone on my team shared their non-work emails and this week has been a chain of questions about things that were explained poorly or inconsistently and about final paychecks being suspiciously short for several people 🙃 I haven't checked mine yet but christ what a mess this has been

My author's note for this new fic mentions how excited I was to try my hand at epistolary fiction and cites two great loves in the genre: Evelina and Letters From the Northern Continent

I haven't worn my pink denim jacket in a while which is a shame, here's the mood of the day 😾🔪🏳️‍⚧️

New fic alert! Letters between Rook and Emmrich in the time between the battle of Minrathous and Rook's arrival in Nevarra. I'm posting this chapter by chapter until the 31st; the first one's just a short setup but things get juicier later on. ✨

my partner has a moderate to severe headache that has lasted unabated for over a decade and it is terrifying to think that doctors might do a facial scan for fucking microexpressons, something I thought had already been debunked, as yet another excuse to not take them seriously

Mo @ranyart.bsky.social · 1d

Uggghhhhh what bullshit, I'm sorry

You were there with her to offer comfort as she passed in a warm and familiar place. She felt your love until the end. Please be kind to yourself today, and again if you ever need to talk about this I'm here. 💜

I was SO sad last fall, I signed up to do postcards to voters and doing 8 a day fucked up my wrist so bad after a couple weeks, sweet Enne took over for me

I leave my friends' house every visit thinking both "wow what a wonderful kid, I'm lucky to be part of their life and I hope to be in it for a long time" and "ah yes parenting is absolutely 100% not for me and I'm glad I could make that decision"

Kiddo time tonight was fun, they stole all our socks while we were eating dinner and put them in the sock cat machine and turned them into cats

Oh man!!! Don't remember if I said this already but I am updating a letter/chapter a day starting tomorrow and will also end on the 31st!

Mo @ranyart.bsky.social · 1d

Hell yeah you deserve it!! Also I am gonna wait and save it all up and blast thru the end all at once which will remove the "oh no what's next' problem

Mo @ranyart.bsky.social · 1d

Mo @ranyart.bsky.social · 1d

The epistolary fic is done and I'm going to be posting one letter a day starting tomorrow! The final one will go up on the 31st which seems appropriate (for release date reasons not spooky reasons). I am proud of it as a first attempt in this format and I hope readers have fun with it.

💗💗💗 this is such a hard thing to deal with and it's a fear and pain I know really well. I will always be emotional about a cat who's sick or in pain and about the people trying to make the best choices and offer the best care. If you ever want to talk more about all this just give me a shout.
