Virginia freelance writer, fantasy and sci-fi writer, slave to a feline demon - there's no real limit to my weirdness. Or my creativity. But you probably already knew that (it's why you're here!). If you're looking for another writer to bounce ideas off of? Pull up a chair (mind the Vemon ooze)

Welcome to this week's meeting of the My Life is S Welcome to this week's meeting of the My Life is So Difficult Club.

Day 29 of #meowvember: Mittens. I know, kittens i Day 29 of #meowvember: Mittens.

I know, kittens in mittens isn't exactly groundbreaking. It's where my brain went, though.

And, to be fair, all the tiny lines took me forever.

I envy people who can order food without a second I envy people who can order food without a second thought.

Mealtime, for me, is a thorough investigative process that takes the joy out of food.

And do I have a special skill for spotting problem ingredients!

The list of foods I can't have is impressive. Between #alphagalsyndrome, a history of kidney stones, my nissen fundoplication, an intense dislike of fungus, and the inability to tolerate spicy food, I'm pretty limited.

I've learned to recognize what will and won't cause problems.

For instance: fast food french fries? Out.

Pre-made salads? Out.

My favorite lebkuchen from the store? Out.

Poke bowl? In.

Is it frustrating and miserable at times? Yeah. Especially because some food labels are printed insanely tiny.

But I manage okay, and I've found people who are really understanding when I hand them my #alphagal card and explain my food can't touch anything else.

Besides, it makes for great character research.

Book 54 for #2023goodreadsreadingchallenge done an Book 54 for #2023goodreadsreadingchallenge done and 55 started.

55 just happens to be massive...(and came with gorgeous mini posters of the characters, which I didn't realize when I snagged it).

Interesting that both are "departures" for the writers.

@meganshepherdauthor moved away from YA, and @cassieclare1 isn't writing in the Shadowhunter universe.

Funny how coincidences like that work out!

Day 27 of #meowvember: Flannel. A few years ago, Day 27 of #meowvember: Flannel.

A few years ago, I bought @timjk333 a flannel jacket for Christmas. I made the mistake of leaving it on the table while I put other things away.

Tonks discovered it.

And immediately claimed it as her new cat bed.

To this day, whenever he gets it out, she tries to lay on it and gets very upset that he has the nerve to wear it.

(And I was too tired from yard work to draw today's prompt)

Between @timjk333 and I, we have TONS of photos of Juniper and Ekko cuddled together, but this one said "cozy" to me.

Nothing looks cozier than Juniper and Ekko snuggled together. 💙🐈‍⬛🐕

A couple years ago, I made a cake for @timjk333's birthday. After frosting it, I left it on the counter.

When I walked in later, there was a perfect paw print in the frosting.

I decided to memorialize that for today's prompt.

Day 23 of #meowvember: Squirrel. Okay, I know thi Day 23 of #meowvember: Squirrel.

Okay, I know this needs context.

Clea runs around with her tail curled like a squirrel. We also call her "Squirrel" (well, "Squirrel Monkey") because she has insane energy and bounces off the walls.

I figured it works.

Even if her unicorn mouse toy turned out weird.

My thankful list doesn't change all that much from My thankful list doesn't change all that much from year to year. Well...with a few exceptions.

🧠 I complain and poke fun (a lot) at therapy. But I don't know where I'd be without those weekly sessions.

There'd definitely be more screaming.

🚢 The idea of taking a REAL vacation terrifies me. (Yet another topic we've covered in therapy) But I'm grateful for the chance to do NOTHING. To relax (or pretend, at any rate), and simply check out from the world.

Or, you know, be catatonic and hyper-stressed (could go either way).

🦃 I've also maintained that a turkey must die on Thanksgiving; retribution for the evil bird on my grandparents' farm that chased me as a kid. (Seriously, that thing was a monster)

But, with the real possibility that I have alpha-gal syndrome, turkey is something I can actually EAT. Without stomach pain or nausea.

So, hell yeah, am I thankful!

Maybe my list is a little weird. But so am I. And all those things keep my world wobbling around its weird little axis. 💙

Why has it taken me so long to poke fun at book ti Why has it taken me so long to poke fun at book titles - the very air I breathe?

I have no answers.

(And hopefully the authors and their families will forgive me)

Today's Invisible Inks is more of a list than an essay, though the message is there for the discerning reader. And it was as fun to create, as always.

The booklist will be live at noon EST. You can pop over via the link in my Bio and Story.

The same link lets you subscribe (for free!), so my wit and humor arrive in your inbox and save you the trouble of clicking future links.

Happy Reading!

Day 17 of #meowvember: Corn. I admit, this didn't Day 17 of #meowvember: Corn.

I admit, this didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted. Unhappily, an episode of hypoglycemia struck in the middle, and my brain wasn't feeling coherent after.

(At least I finished drawing the corn before the shaking started!)
