I’ve been quiet, but it’s for a good reason 💛

Elena came 3 weeks early, spent a day in the NICU where I wasn’t allowed because I had norovirus, BUT our family has been reunited again and soaking in all the baby snuggles!

(Now prepare to rarely if ever see my children’s faces on here again lol)

On bed rest until the baby is here and leaving work yesterday made me so sad. What do you mean I won’t get to be in this beautiful place again for months?

Judge and I were chatting between hearings and she turns to me and goes “or as my kids would say, yapping” 😂

Dante’s 🔥 x Nordic Mythology

To save the soul of her dead lover, a disgraced Valkyrie travels to Helheim—a place no soul ever leaves. The further she descends, the harder it is to face the truth: that she might be her own greatest enemy.

Hades&Persephone x THE CITY IN GLASS

🌆 an underground city on the brink of collapse
💊 a drug that stops a cannibalistic epidemic
💉 vaccine scarcity
🔥 a woman who may be the cure
⛪️ is she a Saint or a witch?
🍎 & the man determined to use her

The VVitch x Midsommer x Nordic Folklore

When a shipwreck happens off the coast of an isolated village, the community decides to leave them for the sea. But when much needed supplies wash ashore, something monstrous follows in its wake.

Didn’t realize question was happening over here too and now feel like I’ll be annoying cross posting 😅

If you’ve experienced burnout and a loss of creative drive, what have you done to bring yourself out of it?

Asking for myself 😅

remember, the blitzkrieg is intended to make you feel like there is nothing you can do about it; that’s the only reason to go forward in this haphazard and sloppy manner all in the first week

and the choice of that strategy tells you they are afraid you *will* do something about it

Don’t post here as often as I should but life update! In less than 12 weeks we are evicting a human from my body and I am really feeling the effects of being an incubator lately 🥴

It’ll be so nice to complete our family, to get my autonomy back and start to feel like a person again 🤞🏻

New year, new WIP? 👀

I’m struggling to write and just need to pick something self indulgent to get myself back into it. Soooo a twist on hades and Persephone in an underground city on the brink of collapse thanks to a growing cult? It’s fantasy, it’s horror, it’s romance. It’s so me lol

25 for 25 📚

This is a lofty goal and I’ll be lucky to read half of them, but this list slaps.

Man oh man, I wish I could publicly share the bonkers things I hear in court in this account, but alas, I am bound to private channels. Let’s just say, my fear of crawl spaces has greatly increased.
