Yay! I'm still telling myself the story in my WIP. :)

I received an international scholarship for WA1 and found a warm and supportive community. What’s more, I was paired with the legendary J.J. Arias as my mentor and learned so much from her!

I love that for you! Congratulations on the scholarship and the awesome mentor pairing! The Writing Academy is the best Sapphic writing program ever!

Such a great morning! Sat on a panel on mentoring for the @gcls-wa.bsky.social - worked all morning on my edits on ARTHUR UNDRESSED for my agent @staceykondla.bsky.social then took a walk in the sun to the library for two Canadian books! Going to work a few more hours, then read all day.

Thanks! You just reminded me to call the library and renew my card! :)

None of them have been able to do that. I wonder if it's a shadow of the TWO DEAD CHILDREN looming over him.

Multiple federal agencies join investigation into disappearance of 14-year-old Emily Pike Indigenous teenager Emily Pike was reported missing from Mesa in late January, and her remains were found weeks later near Globe.

I know there's a new sh*t show every day with that orange turd in the WH. However, this issue needs national attention. People need to know what's happening with indigenous women & children! What kind of POS does this?? www.azcentral.com/story/news/l...

I had a bit of fun today in Canva. :) I can't say enough about WA and how hard the staff works to provide top-notch instructors, classes, and mentors.
