I thought he had myrrh or something for that sort of thing

Well, Christmas has taken an unexpected turn this year. Thanks for the absolution, small/medium/large Jesus.

Fair. I'm not sure even Baby Jesus will forgive me for this one.

Anyone know what level of hell you get for an uncontrollable giggling fit during a Christingle service? Mitigation: a child is playing We Three Kings VERY BADLY on the trumpet. Aggravating factors: your in-laws have been going to this church for 40 years. Nobody believed your fake sneezing fit.

DIY day. Raisin says our handiwork could be better.

Wait, so you're telling me that if I want to finish work WITHOUT a banging headache, all I have to do is eat regularly, drink enough water, take regular screen breaks, and not clench my jaw for 10 solid hours a day? sounds fake but okay.

Y'all, discoverability is harder than ever. With Twitter all but gone and publishing being --in a mood-- your favorite authors are floundering. We don't know how to reach our fans or find new readers. Telling someone about a book you love is a really big deal. That's the #1 reason people buy books!

The other day I was like “you know something we heard a lot about as kids was acid rain, why don’t we hear about it anymore”

TURNS OUT we fixed it???

HELLO bsky writers! I am so very excited to announce that #WOWCHAT is coming to bsky NEXT MONTH!

Those of you who followed me on the bird site probably remember this weekly chat, but for the newbies, deets below!

Our first chat here will be DECEMBER 1 at 7pm EST! 🙌🏻 Tell your friends!

I am very taken with the idea of a series of unorganised days in which everyone naps and writes as much or as little as they feel like whilst surrounded by snacks and blankets and is very gentle with themselves. January sounds like a perfect time for this. What a way to start/end the year.

😂😭 I'm pretty sure at least one of those things is in plentiful supply!

Oh my GOD we need to make this a thing.

I think we all need more mini writing month in our lives!

It's time, people. We can make "mini writing month" happen!

Definitely not just you

For some reason I'm usually in an editing phase in November, but this year I've just sent my new MS to my agent for feedback... so in the meantime, I'm doing NaNo for the first time ever! I'd love to hear about everyone else's projects this month 💕

Oh no

Celebrating Samhain appropriately by settling down in front of the fire with a book that I am 100% too much of a baby for.

Came here to say precisely this.
