I chipped a molar on my morning granola, so I have to go to the dentist. 🦷⛏️

It would make me feel better if you checked out my books. They're perfect for this stressful time of year because they're short and exciting and have families bickering maybe even harder than yours.

I have somewhat of an idea for an emotionally charged slasher maybe??
