Repeating this repost by @ajwestauthor.bsky.social because this just happened to me but using a different author and again friendly but eventually slightly off sounding DMs. Seems to be happening more and more on here.
I’m veggie! But I wouldn’t even consider a fake bacon and ham version either 😂

I’m clearing winding down for Christmas if I think finishing a workshop outline & sending it off means I can put my feet up & have a cup of Christmas Tea. Not sure I’m going to meet my end of Feb deadline for D1 at this rate! #writingcommunity #writers
