I've just realised I've never posted about my books here 😂 or in fact introed myself.

So s'mae, I'm EM! I am techy, arty and heckin' Welsh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I have 2 novellas alive in the world, Moon-Sitting (dark atmospheric scifi) and Labours of Stone (a very queer fun urban fantasy).

Neis i gwrdd â chi 💙

I have to check into the surgical ward at 7.30 AM tomorrow 🥲

Which means I have to be up at like 5 AM to shower.

WHY IS THIS HOW WE DO SURGERYYYYY??? 😭

Merlin has a new do, and a new Christmas jumper 😌

When the surgery anxiety hits, so you start hyperfixating on the doodles.

Blond character is a demon from Muted by Miranda Mundt. I’m playing with different styles.

Between SuperWhoLock and SoulsBorneKiroRing the language of fandom is a lot more like German than you'd think.

Just a little reminder that if you still have gifts to buy this Christmas, these are 4 of the 5 books I have been involved in over recent years (unfortunately 1 is out of print).

All of them are available on Amazon. Direct links are in the comments. Happy reading.

Matt wasn't well enough to promote the release day of his new short story ebook All Quiet On The Terraces. It's a spooky tale but the kind that tugs on your heartstrings; especially apt since he passed away. You can get the kindle edition here:

Very almost typed Twitter into my browser address bar this morning 🥲

I've been struggling lately with reading, watching TV, playing games, basically anything that involves other people's voices in my head.

I keep thinking it's anxiety, but I've just realised that my voice would like to hang out and do some talking for a bit.

Guess it's time to write 😉

It's December 2025.

Sitting upright for longer than 5 mins is still a whole thing, but I'm not mad about this year.

I've made new friends, found and treated my PCOS, made a ton of art and almost finished a poetry book.

Also life's too short to stay mad and my hair looks gd amazing 🤩

I have been quiet.

The surgery anxiety has hit.

Here is Merlin staring longingly at a piece of cake in the lap of a visitor.

Please forgive 🙏

How many times are you allowed to think about contacting an old friend before it becomes weirs and creepy that you haven't just done it yet?

I discovered today there's a murder mystery series coming out called "This is Not a Murder Mystery Series" with René Margritte as an MC.

I continue to be annoyed that this wasn't based on a known, solved murder, therefore making it not a murder mystery, but a representation of a murder mystery.

Seeing the absence of a certain person in my timeline and being reminded that I should really sort out my poetry book and publish it finally.

Really sad to hear Matt Mason (@chaoticauthor.online) has passed away.

He was such a star in this community, always willing to help, and a fantastic writer too 💙

His wife Cat has asked, in lieu of flowers, money be donated to Macmillan. If you want to donate, link below.

I take 2 doses of ibuprofen every day to keep my fibro in check and for most of the month it does a pretty solid job (especially when I'm well rested etc)

To the point where I sometimes find myself without ibuprofen and I go "ahh I'll be fine".

This happened yesterday.

Gentlemen, I was not fine.

I haven’t been promoting my sapphic Medusa enough 🥺

There aren’t many reviews yet, but they’re all 5⭐ and everyone seems to love the book, so I’d love for it to reach more readers 💙📚👀

If you like Greek mythology and you’re in the mood for a good cry, please consider giving it a shot! 🫶🏻 🌈📚

Look I have very specific reading needs:

- Ghosts solving murders
- People falling in love fictional characters/holograms/goofy vampires/the person they thought was their enemy but is actually a lovely jelly bean
- PUZZLES

Duck loving ffrinds! Any idea what this guy/gal is? Have never seen one like this on our canal before. Typically we only get your gclassic mallard and moorhens here.

Just throwing it out into the wilderness: I think it would be very funny to put me (a person who is only familiar with dungeons and dragons in theory), into a podcast where everyone else knows what they're doing. No-one is allowed to help me, but also, I am allowed to make shit up.

TW, but apparently standing here watching the birds makes me look like im about to end it all 😅

It's happened twice now, this time with community officers 🙈
