U.S. Women in STEM

Keep an eye out for womeninstem.us as someone bought the domain and is going to use it to preserve women’s stories who have been removed from gov and science websites like NASA!!

How long does it take to grow? Do you have to start over?

Now if my parents would have just explained it this way, it would have made more sense!

Santa is a quantum being.
His probabilistic nature means that he can be in every house at the same time on Christmas. This is why it's vitally important noone sees him. If he's observed the probabilities collapse and only one house gets presents.

I'd like to be added if you still have space, please.

Thinking about writing?

1. "After a business trip I drop everything at the door for Mrs. Meyer to sort later. I'll turn on some Tame Impala, sip a twenty year old Scotch and plan my next success."

2. "Obviously you have to unpack, don't you? Make sure the toothbrush is back. Comb. Need them in the morning, won't you?"

A beautiful tradition.

Look, if cranberries can be weird and bitter and still liked by roughly half the people at Thanksgiving dinner, then so can you!

Congratulations!!

Have you done any holiday shopping?
Have you finished already?
I'm done. Just don't ask me to decorate.

I created a pseudonym, but I'm having second thoughts about how necessary it would be for me. 🤷‍♀️

It's amazing how it suddenly stands up and starts walking in It's own direction!

Where did all of these characters come from? I began world building this week and three characters suddenly became nine, and the plot expanded beautifully!

I blame the first night of eight full hours of sleep I've had in years. I should do that more often.

Doesn't matter when you start.
It matters that you don't stop.

Historic fiction is one of my favorite genres to read.

A fellow New Mexico writer! This looks like it'll be a great read.

Books I’m Querying Though I’ve written four books over these last twenty years, I currently have two polished, beta-read, and heavily revised novels I’m querying: A near-future, high-concept Frankenstein retelling, and ...

Per advice, I've compiled the books I'm querying into a single page.

Agents and acquisition editors, my two books:
🫀Near-future Frankenstein retelling (my MFA thesis) in the vein of Never Let Me Go.
🐉Character-driven, literary fantasy with a soul-eating dragon baby.

‘You know you’re a writer when… you have more half-finished novels and ideas for stories than friends’

Seems about right 😂

I guess I’ve gotta make new business cards, if bsky is going to be my main!

A Question of Reiki was published in 2022, & my first (& so far only) book. Written from the perspective of my years of experience as a Reiki Practitioner & Teacher.

Next book, out 2025, is a children's non-fiction, about women through history. Very excited about this!

Thank you!

Sophie’s mother loved her more than anything.

My happy place on a Sunday morning; Writing in the parlor with music, a cup of tea, and some faithful assistants.

This is still my advice: Become a writer anyway. Fuck it, do it, it won't save you, but it's still a beautiful dream to write novels and short stories and poems and mingle with other dreamers and make art and laugh in the face of death. And writing is constant death. Live más.
