She/her. PhD in Egyptology, now I write fiction. The Night Library of Sternendach is my novella in sonnets. The Glass Garden is space horror and family drama.
Will boost almost anything with a bat in it.

The WICKED cereal was deeply discounted at the store. This is proper; the cereal was bleh. But the boxes were worth it for the graphic design, and I have turned them into office supplies.

Thanks for doing this, Gabino.
I've got two books perfect for #Novellavember. One has romance and family drama, the other has tasteful gore and a little sex.
Which is which? I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Got this picture of my youngest playing in a tree.
But seriously, if the horror you're reading doesn't have a mysterious, maybe alive, stained glass window in it, what are you even reading?

My friend sent me this little dear over a year ago and I'm sorry it took me so long to take a picture. Happy Halloween, everyone.

I hope I don't get in trouble for not using the adult filter.
We bought a tub of mini croissants and fully half of them looked like this.

Now is a great time to read either of my novellas.
And I'd like to ask folks who have, if they get a moment, to drop a review in the usual places. It would mean a lot to me.

@mcflycahill90.bsky.social's AUDITION FOR THE FOX proved to be exactly the book I needed today, as I was able to read it cover to cover while waiting for a lactose breath test to finish. Made the time much more enjoyable, and the anti-tyranny message was a balm I hadn't expected.

I don't know about you, but by us the weather is finally getting that crisp autumn feel.
Whatever your weather, one of my novels will probably be the perfect pairing.

Saw this AI slop calendar for sale at my local Barnes and Noble and I am not happy about it.
