This election night feels like the complete opposite of last year's election night. And, of course, that's a very good thing.

If you live in these states, here's where to vote --

Virginia: www.elections.virginia.gov/casting-a-ba...

New Jersey: voter.svrs.nj.gov/polling-plac...

Pennsylvania: www.pa.gov/services/vot...

California: www.sos.ca.gov/elections/po...

New York: vote.nyc/page/find-yo...

Palate cleanse. Some humans are terrible, but more of us are great.

I like our early voting stickers this year. I’ve voted, have you?

Congratulations to the LA Dodgers for their second consecutive World Series win!

And congratulations to the Toronto Blue Jays for a well fought fight.

Now looking to the 2026 season - Let's Go Mets!

Regina faces her victims when a magical moon brings the dead back to life for one night. But when a familiar face comes to her aid, she learns her happy ending may have been resurrected as well.

Regina reveals to her fiance, Robin, that she is a witch and invites him to join their town's coven. Will he accept it or will their happy ending be cut short?

archiveofourown.org/works/211691...

Again, not a Halloween story but one with a paranormal bent. Robin's plane crashes and he is presumed dead. But his wife, Regina, keeps having strange dreams that suggest otherwise in "Finding Robin."

"The Last Lifetime" is not a Halloween story per se but there's a spooky element to it. Regina curses herself to find love but it keeps slipping from her hand. Will she finally succeed in this lifetime?

Or "Mask," where Robin sneaks into the Evil Queen's masquerade to steal treasures from her guests. But there is more to the ball than meets the eye.

However, I do have some fanfics that are perfect for Halloween.

Like "The Queen in the Attic," inspired by Disney's Haunted Mansion. Arriving to a strange house after dying, Robin is intrigued by the mysterious queen he hears crying in the attic.

I was hoping to have the penultimate chapter of my #OutlawQueen story, "The Halloween Curse," ready for today. Unfortunately, it had other plans. So I guess you will have to wait until next Halloween for that.

I'm sorry.

But I hope it will be worth the wait!

’Tis now the very witching time of night,
When churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out
Contagion to this world.

Writing Progress: Q3 Update We’re wrapping up the posts about my progress during the third quarter of 2025. Today, we’re discussing how I’m doing on the original writing projects I’m working on this year. I’m glad I’ve decide…

I share some updates about my progress working on three original stories in my new blog post here: awriterjourney.wordpress.com/2025/10/29/w...

Donald Trump Confuses Dementia Screening for 'Very Hard' IQ Test as He Brags About Results People

This is probably the funniest headline of the year.

Though I will say, my Christmas playlist on Spotify is starting to defrost. It's just waiting for Spooky Season to end.

It's always disorienting each year when Halloween Night on Dancing With the Stars cuts to a Christmas commercial.

I call my dad's cousins and their spouses "Aunt" and "Uncle."

This is a reach.

A big one.

Let's have some fun.

Respond with the same actor as a hero and villain.

Scammy text appeal seeking donations for the "No Kings Act" which will be "500% MATCHED"

PSA: The No Kings PAC is not affiliated with and had no role in putting on the 10/18 mobilization. If you get a spammy text from them claiming your donation will be 5x matched, know that it's not from anyone involved in the No Kings protest (and please direct your angry emails to them, not us)

If you think Republicans losing their shit about Canada airing an ad with Reagan’s own words is crazy, let me remind you about the time that they lost their shit over NPR tweeting the Declaration of Independence on Independence Day.

How long shall I be patient?

Sharing this #OutlawQueen short story I wrote back in 2016 for reasons.

High school senior Regina Mills gets a surprise when her favorite pop star, Robin Lockley, agrees to take her to prom after her friends sent him a promposal. Will it be a magical night?
