All your questions answered!

I don’t think so. He did this one and the one in Madam Tussaud’s, custom orders. Trevor’s company is called Theatreknits.

Apropos of nothing, my friend Trevor made this sweater. :)

I'm flying to the UK tomorrow. My head, today, is every which way.
Five gigs between Saturday and Wednesday.

Editor Cat is very concerned about the lawnmower guy.

Hi, Candace! Can you add me? Author of eight novels, including the Aventurine Morrow series.

Can you include me? Author of eight novels including the Adventurine Morrow series. Thanks!! :D

Good morning! It's Friday, it's my payday, and in one week, I'm flying to the UK to see my friends, and to go to some #Oysterband and #Bellowhead gigs.

Any other fans out there? We could connect. :D

I got some really delightful news this evening, but I can’t share details yet. However, I can invite you to dance with me.

A bunch of kids in study hall and I were just discussing 1984 and "Do it to Julia!" as one of the most horrific lines in literature. So obviously I must read this.

This is no good. I've lent my room out to the health teacher, so I'm sitting here with an unexpected 12 teenagers studying reproduction, and I'm falling asleep.

As in--my eyes close, then I jerk my head back up, and I don't know where I am.

Hoping these kids don't notice. :(

Dammit. Hate that.

But that you have named yourself after Gussie Fink-Nottle is the greatest gift I've received today.

I once had cats named Gussie Fink-Nottle and Catsmeat Potter-Purbright. As one does.

Somewhere near RAH in the middle of the night.

I'll be back next week.

I'm two years from retirement, when I can work full time on my stories. That's my writer destiny. :)

I read a prompt from @katemessner.bsky.social, about writing a description of your MC's bedroom.

In the four Aventurine Morrow thrillers, she lives out of hotel rooms.

Maybe next time around she should get her own house.

Despite everything, November is gorgeous out there.

My first novel was published when I was 51.

Mostly because writing stories is the only thing I've ever wanted to do.

What should you know?

I write. I write more. I am in love with all the words. I have published eight novels and three poetry chaps. I have cats, one good (Editor Cat), one evil (Toast!). I like traveling, and hiking, and biking, and music, and reading, and all sorts of things--but not fascism.
