the hike scene seems to make readers exactly as mortified reading it as I was writing it

I'm so sorry, friend ❤️

the dudes who eat only raw beef liver are going to have so many problems and I'm here for it

(thank you for introducing me to the fact that you can die from eating too much protein)

this is The Way

weird masculinity-and-strength-coded nutritional fixations are a fascism indicator so I am very excited for the protein dudes to FAFO

Ollie must suffer the curse of being Tillie's favorite, which means that sometimes she will just Decide that it is Time for Snuggling and god help you if you have other shit you need to do

thank you for your sympathy in this trying time 😔

dropped half of my "bagel" and it landed cream cheese side down. it was just a Seattle grocery store "bagel" and not a real bagel but I'm still sad about it. Rip #mybagel

congratulations!!

an annoying-but-hopefully-fixable book business embuggerance to begin this lovely Tuesday 🙃

we also call our little dog the Fun Police, she grumbles balefully when we hug 😭

IT WENT OKAY I THINK

I also had a banger idea for another scene when I woke up this morning so overall I am feeling good, bookwise

love it when I notice a plot hole and it turns out not to be a plot hole but an opportunity for MORE CONFLICT

now THAT was some GOD DAMN WRITING

IT IS

a useful reminder that the politics of individual people are not always coherent

remembering how one of my followers on the old website was an older gay man who was both A) earnestly and effusively supportive of my book and B) DEEP into far right conspiracy theories. I hope he's gotten some help because oof

describe your plot in five words or fewer:

homeschooling scheme ruined by homosexual

got a few hours to try and write before we have to leave for the anxiety-inducing Thing *slaps brain like the hood of a car* let's see how much this baby can compartmentalize

the fuck kind of limey nonsense is this

Dudley Marjoribanks, 1st Baron Tweedmouth

just learned the name of the dude who bred the first golden retrievers and I am HOLLERING

I have an anxiety inducing Thing this afternoon, crossing fingers that it doesn't make me sad

did manage a little writing today but I would love to get, like, any flow whatsoever

it's the silliest stress response lmao, neither flight NOR flight, UNCONSCIOUSNESS

I just went up on my thyroid meds so hopefully it will make a difference 😭

would love to know if this is how my brain naturally chooses to address stress or if it's, like, my thyroid
