I've always found @cycling2asylum.bsky.social's books read like real life through a science fiction paradigm.

Tonight I do the laundry, loads of dirty clothes and whites
The rumble of the wringer washer punctuates my nights
Then I wash the kitchen floor of all the mud my kids have tracked
I'm a Working Parent and my patience is taxed.

A little reminder that writing & being a homeparent IS real work, and supported my family better during those years than driving to a fast-food job would have done.
Working Parent is book 2 in my series of real life stories!

This one! I think this one looks best.
And since Small Rain is trending at #47 among over 103 thousand books of short stories on Kobo, the number is pretty good for bragging -- er, promoting.
It's on other vendors, too. 99cents till the end of October.
