The big 50 looms! Saturday.

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

I wonder if a Pern wander/homebrew is worth a nomination for fan writer?

I joined the space between the phoenix and peonies with flowers buds. Forgive me if the lines are thick.

Thanks to your generosity I’ve been able to buy a comforter (it is getting seriously cold despite the heat being turned on!). I still need help with mom’s phone bill at the nursing home, and food for the rest of the month. Please share it donate if you can! ko-fi.com/soniasulaima...

For the early morning crowd: I'm on the last day of my rent's grace period and still trying to make something, anything, work.

If anyone has writing or editing they need done, I need whatever people can send my way. See the QP below:
The last few weeks have been just wild. (IYKYK.) Just had a file reversion error I hoped never to see again, which screws me over on an already overdue project covering rent. And my Dec. rent's grace period ends tomorrow.

Anyone have a $1,250 gig I can help with?

So here's a fun (?) new thing. Perhaps unsurprisingly I think a lot about speculative fiction and mental health (my day job is at a mental health charity) and I thought I'd have a go at putting some of my thoughts down in writing in the form of a conference paper about Inner Worlds.

Mind the stones there. A centaur took out part of my stone wall in a hissy fit. Centaurs, what can you do, hmm?

I am still working on my knitting - so the phoenix embroidery will be later, after I return from my break/hiatus in Vietnam.

Donna Glee Williams looks at "the Hero's Journey" and points out some of its failures for both how we understand fiction and how we understand the real world...

In the night sky I see your true name
We are stardust, you would say
And on the wind and in the flame
Is the dust that claims us
In the end
In the dream I see where you are now
Living in the possibility somehow
And all there is is that we dared
To uphold the vision that we shared

Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head?

Why are people still posting screenshots from former bird site?

Are we supposed to be rid of this toxic habit?

All the loud voices in the room....
Remember.
It is the quiet ones you need to worry about.

That is what I know to be true about bullies.
