It’s Small Business Saturday, and my self-published ebooks are all currently $2.99 and under! (If you want to try BIG BAD WOLF or PLL, please buy ebook, too. Paperbacks earn me pennies.)

600 ICE agents were supposed to be deployed to Canal Street. Hundreds of New Yorkers gathered instead.

I have begun the annual holiday season viewing of LOTR. It's amazing how just the music soothes my savage beast. The Shire theme is like a gentle massage. Circles between my shoulder blades.

if you need something to watch after binging Heated Rivalry, may I suggest Fire Island, one of my favorite rom-coms of the past few years?

Chicago weather forecasts were for 6 to 10 inches of snow today. I wasn't all that impressed this morning, but apparently it's a grower not a show-er.

My life has been so consistently wild (989 days, but still less than 3 years since I moved home) I forgot to mention *surgery* I had in September. As in 2.5 months ago.

So many people have helped balance these events so that I can stay on mission but this last 12% is make or break.
👋🏿 I'm 3 years into a fundraiser to support my journey of becoming a midwife, I'm STRUGGLING to take these very last steps. Finishing the $7889 left on this campaign would secure essential transportation to get to births and let me connect the pieces of my training and commitment to community birth.

There's a difference between casting a white actor to play a white character from another culture and casting BIPOC in roles from another culture. Naveen Andrews playing an Iraqi, Chinese actors playing Korean or Japanese, happens because showrunners know their target audience can't tell us apart.

Dude. It looks like I might hit the royalty goal after all. You know what this means? I have to finish the second novella. 😂
My professional goals for this year were to finish two novellas and to make more in royalties than I did last year. Barring some miracles in the next six weeks, I’ve failed at both. lol.

The real evidence that the hockey show is for the white straights and queers? Any snark or criticism is being dismissed as “negativity.” What do you mean we can’t be bitchy about a gay show?! 😂

Wondering about Asian rep in Heated Rivalry? Well, unlike the book, it actually exists. So there’s that. But it’s surface level so far, and Christina Chang and Hudson Williams aren’t Japanese. I’m not shocked that hasn’t been brought up. We’re still doing One East Asian Fits All in 2025. 🙃

You can't take me anywhere. Including my own apartment. I just stalled my viewing of Heated Rivalry by pondering what percentage of Connor Storrie's Russian accent skews Boris Badenov. Ilya's getting blown, moaning "Da, like that, Hollander" and I'm filling in "Now we must find Moose and Squirrel."

Brown people didn't like him in high school, that's literally it.

Some people just break easy
I think that somewhere along the way something in Stephen Miller got fundamentally damaged. This is neither an excuse nor a mitigating factor; the dude is genuinely fucking evil and he and everything he stands for should be fought against and stopped. But he is something beyond mere sociopathy.
Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.
