My life has been on hold this week following a drastic and explosive vomiting episode on the part of my cat, Fidel, which led to him not eating or drinking for almost two days.

After a rather fluffy and upbeat couple of posts last week, we're going down into the dark today. Trigger warning for sexual assault and spoilers for James Treadwell's Advent and Anarchy.

Guess what? We are moving! As of Thursday we have closed on a house and we will be working towards repairs and then moving all next week. It has been a wild month trying to make this happen, and I am so ready for it to be somewhat like over. So ready. Honestly the prospect... Continue Reading →
You may have noticed that I am providing regular updates in a thread on Twitter regarding my editing process for Daughter of Madness. I've linked them all together, so you can click below and look at my progress so far. I figured that might help you figure out what I've been dealing with. Starting rewrites on... Continue Reading →
So PSA, I loved this movie. I've seen some discussion of the problematic aspects of this film, and we'll get to those because I want to unpack them. But I want to start by focusing on the positives. I had been waiting to see this movie for two weeks when I finally made it into... Continue Reading →
