Please be kind to your trans friends today, and every day. Today because they need it: every day because we all deserve it.
Most days being homesick is me missing my family. But. Some days... it's craving a box of extra toasty cheez-its so badly I could cry.

It's ok to get some rest.
It's ok to become a lonely lighthouse keeper and spend your days cursing the sea and your nights gently going mad as you write an unending novel about ghost cats.
There is nothing more nauseating and liberating than a story finally being out of your hands

Support native folks by holding space and uplifting our voices today and everyday. #NAHM

At the end of the day I'm just a fan of the strange and macabre #HorrorWritersChat

Become best friends with it. Brag to everyone else about your new cool demon best friend. Knit that sweater.

An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough.
So finish the thing.
