She/Her I'm a Trans Woman who's trying to get published, get through school, and figure out how to get published.
I'm about to apply for an MFA program. The past 20 years was long, and I was forced into retirement was, I am still thankful for the benefits I got to keep and use for my education. Between TA and the GI bill, I'll get a higher degree without massive debt. It takes a lot of stress off my shoulders!!

Yesterday I turned in my final paper for my final class in my BA program. I only have one more week of school and I'm taking a little break. But then I'm going for my MFA

I just started re-playing Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Future Warrior on my PS3. I can honestly say I enjoy the format of it more than the two that followed. I miss games like that.

Over the last two days, I've gotten more than 3k words done on a revision for one of my #WIP. I was slacking a little, but I'm back on it now.

I'm taking two classes in college this semester and, while the workload is more than usual (obviously) I'm still having a lot of fun learning the two subjects. As long as nothing happens, I'll have my BA by the end of the year.

Something I would have never admitted 10 years ago: I'm listening to the K-POP Demon Hunters Soundtrack cause it's awesome! I was so concerned about how I 'looked' to other people, I wouldn't have even listened to the soundtrack before I came out and accepted myself.

I just finished Aurora Rising by @amiekaufman.bsky.social and @misterkristoff.bsky.social. It's been a while since I've read Sci-fi. I can't believe I've waited so long to read it. 10 out of 10 must read.

I did so many mental gymnastics this week in college I should go to the Olympics. I compared the original COD Modern Warfare Trilogy to Beowulf in my Medieval Lit class. I made a pretty good comparison (in my opinion) between the two stories.
