F. Scott Fitzgerald said, “Character is plot, plot is character.” And he was right.

We come to understand characters the same way we do people in real life: by watching them act, struggle, and make choices.

If you find yourself reconsidering where to buy your books in light of Target ending DEI, don't forget your local independent bookstores! I'll happily spend a bit more, and wait a little longer for my pre-ordera #booksky #target

Bookstore Cat Being Extra Cute and Cozy! #BookSky #LocalStore #CatSky #Notmycat

It’s a wonderful day to visit your local used bookstore and buy some banned books 🥰

Today, I create a world where toast, ducks, and audiobooks are all that exist. It’s a duck of a lot nicer here. And the marmalade whispers sweet nothings. 📚🌈 #audiobooks #ducks #queerreaders

I hope this finds you.

Tomorrow I’m going to get some materials to make stencils for posters, I have a few concepts ready. Hopefully I can get a screen printing set up going again. Would love to bring the ability to screen print our thoughts and feelings to the community. Art has a way of bringing us together.

If you're an artist and you don't feel the urge to create due to current events, that's okay.
And if you're an artist and you *do* feel the urge to create due to current events, that's also okay.

Book entitled: how to date buildings (an easy reference guide)

I’m done dating humans. I’ve got a better idea—

Reasons to Live Through the Apocalypse Sunrises. People you have still to meet and laugh with. Songs about love, peace, anger, and revolution. Walks in the woods. The smile you exchange with a stranger when you experience beauty accidentally together. Butterflies. Seeing your grandparents again. The moon in all her forms, whether half or full. Dogs. Birthdays and half-birthdays. That feeling of floating in love. Watching birds eat from bird feeders. The waves of happiness that follow the end of sadness. Brown eyes. Watching a boat cross an empty sea. Sunsets. Dipping your feet in the river. Balconies. Cake. The wind in your face when you roll the car window down on an open highway. Falling asleep to the sound of a steady heartbeat. Warm cups of tea on cold days. Hugs. Night skies. Art museums. Books filled with everything you do not yet know. Long conversations. Long-lost friends. Poetry.

I wrote this on one of the darkest days of my life. It gave me an anchor to hold onto.

I am so sorry to hear this. All the love.

Why Are These Songs Still Stuck in My Head? A Question for Gen X (Arena Rock Edition)

Apparently there’s some kind of “but this is how the human brain works” explanation. I ain’t buying it.

watercolor and pencil illustration of two white wolves standing against a simple white and black background made to look like snow against a dark sky. One wolf is large and shot with arrows, the other small and childlike. The wolves are almost touching noses; the child looks up at the face of the injured wolf, not understanding. The mood is somber and sad

Inside me are two wolves...and one of them is effing tired

Happy Caturday 😽🤍

On lazy gym days, I like to bring a book and walk on the treadmill for about an hour. The Thursday Murder Club is the first book in a long time that I can't put down. When I think I may have solved the puzzle, some new piece of information tosses my theory out of the window. #booksky

Turns out that when AI is narrating your romance audiobook, “hemoglobin” sounds like a goblin with an impressive set of pronouns. #romancelandia #queerromance
