Please please PLEASE, read this story on @MermaidsMonthly@Twitter.com by Carlos Hernandez and C. S. E. Clooney. It is... I'm just... ugh, I can only strive to write this well. https://mermaidsmonthly.com/2021/04/20/a-minnow-or-perhaps-a-colossal-squid/

(CW for TF and a unique take on debtor's prison)

Newwwww story! "Jump" was my story from RAWR this year and was a blast to write. Heavily inspired by Joanna Newsom's song Monkey and Bear.

CW mentions of sex, crude language, what could be interpreted as suicide (no graphic depictions)

Got a cute! Art by Rhari on FA.

Oh hey! And Qoheleth won a Leo Award!

Patronfriends get the next draft of "Jump"! Swung too far with my changes, so the next pass of editing will require more refinement. https://www.patreon.com/posts/52431302

First full day of RAWR. Exhausted. Here's to our first t-shirt quote, though.

Oh, my Bachelor's was conferred retroactively. Swoot~

Got a bunch of requests-for-information out for masters degrees (and one certificate program), as well as an email out to CSU to figure out what's up with my degree.

Some of these programs just sound so cool I want to do them all ;.; Particularly, the MA in Theopoetics and Writing, and the certificate in multi-religious studies

Bit more LO for $5+ patronfriends! Don't worry, $1 patronies, I have stuff for you coming up :D
