Yeah!! π I didn't think about how autistic Siegfried was until Tristan started telling the story about the magic mask. And I was like "oh, of course!" And Tristan obviously has a learning disability, so there's that. I think he's the ADHD part of the team.

And I learned this in part from my grandmother: lived in Micronesia, had a kid with health problems, got unexpectedly divorced, and yet made herself a great life. Sometimes life chooses for us and sometimes we choose change, but either way, bring people you love along for the ride.

I have started my life over several times and expect to do it several more. And each iteration brings me closer to the person I want to be and attracts the people I want to be around me.
Don't be afraid to make a big move. You can always start over again if it doesn't work out.

Alt: a white man says sweet manna from heaven while sitting in front of a cabinet full of teacups. He plays Tristan in All Creatures Great and Small.
My hospital comfort watch is All Creatures Great and Small and I am pleased with myself for satisfying my love of British things and fuzzy animals simultaneously with my love of neurodiversity and diverse representation.
And I may even get a romance out of it!! (I just finished S. 1, no spoilers)

Background is a sunset picture of the Golden gate bridge. In the foreground is a mostly Gray book cover with the title only want to be with you. An Italian man stands leaning against a wall with his hands in his pockets of a navy suit. He looks into the camera. The author is London price. The book is in Kindle unlimited and the white text at the bottom encourages you to borrow it now.
Putting Greg and Nico's book into KU now through the end of the year because I know budgets are tight. I'll do a giveaway soon too. Grab it now for a lil' throwback treat!

I think we do what you're doing: find each other. Remind each other that we're not alone, that it's good to make moral choices. That those hard choices are worth making, even when they set us swimming against the tide of hate and fear. We build the life raft as we go, then climb in together.

I try to focus this account so it's for my readers, but hey writers:
NEVER sign a contract where the publisher keeps your rights indefinitely. For short stories, there should be a point when you can sell reprints.
and NEVER sign your movie/TV/etc adaptation rights to a publisher. Those are yours.

An unremarkable modern floral background. In the foreground sits a 3D image of a book that does not yet exist. It's called Callum Foster Turns up the Heat : An M/M Rom Com by London Price. On the cover are two white men, one behind a desk who has pink paint on his jacket, and a second one in the foreground with dark hair and a navy suit, looking dashing and in charge.
Me, every single time I scan something to myself:
"Oh, I've got an email! I wonder who that's--"
This story brought to you by my brain, which would really like to get back to drafting Callum Foster Turns Up the Heat someday soon with all its silly office humor and love and art and weed.
Soon!

A couple folks have called today and said they got through to people, which means we are not crashing the lines nearly enough.
Call, y'all. Even if you're never called before. Especially if you have a democratic senator who you don't trust to hold the line.

Alt: a pink heart with the words player two written on it
When we dated in high school, my wife and I used to play Yahoo Pool online because we could chat while we played. As her surgery approaches, we're spending more time apart, so she suggested we play games online again.
It's nostalgic and strangely romantic.
Also, I win a lot, so...
