I will endeavor to post a variety of different interests on my feed to try and keep things light and not all doom & gloom. Photography, nature, animals, hiking, kayaking, video games, cooking, gardening, DIY, art and writing. But I will also not be silent.
I'm not sure what this moment is called, but it's causing me hesitation. I'm about to dive into writing Act II of book two. All the threads are in place--all the characters at the ready--and I feel like I'm at the top of the ski slope hesitating before pushing forward.

Taking toys to the library this morning to donate to needy children. Someone's getting a giant Elmo doll that I won.

I remember growing up poor and having to stand in line at Christmas for a toy. Hoping I can change that for others.

This is always forefront in my mind as a FL writer. My series talks about Idigenous peoples, has a gay couple, and even throws shade (in passing) at entitled corporations. Don't tell me what I can and can't write. I am against #bookbanning

📚Florida removed about 400 books from public schools this year.

This isn’t “routine review.” It’s a coordinated effort to erase stories —especially those by authors of color, LGBTQ+ writers, & books that honestly discuss racism, identity, & history.

Yesterday was my birthday. It was *meh.*

Next year I'm taking a trip somewhere - anywhere - by myself.

No notes.

I am so completely over this shit. Impeach this disgusting excuse for a president. I'm sick of the lies, corruption, deflection, and inexcusable behavior from the entire Republican party. Excise the rot starting with the golden goblin!!!

Ok y'all. I spent all night working on this and I think it's ready to release.

New blog post, new goals. Your support (however you can give it, even if that just means sharing this post) would mean the absolute world to me.

He's a vile misogynist.

You don't talk to women like that, period.
Trump is a piece of human excrement.

Went on a girl's trip this past weekend. Searched for shark's teeth, did some hiking, photography and even came across a herd of wild horses.

Didn't open my laptop once to work on book two. It was like a real vacation.

I got an update from my editor today. It was good news and completely validated my stance on something a beta reader took issue with.

What's that saying? Trust but verify.

I'll say one thing about the current administration: I was trying to find a way to have the villain in my novel be released from prison, and now - problem solved. She'll just buy a pardon from the current unamed president.

Sorry not sorry?

I find it amusing that the most flack I've gotten over any of my protest signs is on this one. By trolls with new accounts & zero followers. It's like they live in their mother's basement and don't have the aptitude to understand what fascism is.

We're happy the MidBay News could cover the local protest in #FortWaltonBeach for #NoKings, but their numbers reporting was inaccurate, not even matching the numbers from the first protest. About 1,500 people turned out, up from the previous 1,300. midbaynews.com/post/no-king...
