Ugh, great, now my craving for timtams has been rekindled! Guess I'll just have to fly back to Aussie and get some (grumbles about the lack of availability in the US)
Hmm, I should also get some sour patch kids while I'm there, the OZ are MUCH better than the US ones
My autocorrect still insists that "audiobook" should be two words instead of one, even though I've been typing it for seven years now! 🙄
😆😆 True, and that does sound completely logical!
A Christmas tree outdoors in a wooded front yard, covered with snow
I'm dreaming of (month-late) White Christmas! (Yes, that is the Christmas tree still up in February, don't judge me, I'm a professional procrastinator I'll have you know)
We're about to have an actual winter day, complete with snow and (ugh) ice! Seems like the seasons are being proper everywhere!
Option 3: keep an easy snack within reach of the bed so you can temporarily sate the hunger pangs while ALSO staying in bed and snuggling with the dog!
I normally try to keep my social media accounts as JUST for my audiobook work, but...
I never thought I'd be living in a time where I'd have to worry about both global warming and an ICE age.
A screenshot of Wordle guess distributions, with second guesses beating fifth guesses 74 to 73.
Woohoo! Today is finally the day that my second guesses outweigh my fifth guesses on #Wordle! All my hard work keeping track of all the words used so far is finally paying off 😎
👏👏👏🙌🎉
"The intelligence you build, whether with action or words, requires you to generate from scratch. Whenever we skip this step, we pay a price." AI may tremendously speed up the production process, but it "prevents you from knowing how you did it." ~ "The AI Paradox" by "Art of the Problem"
It has turned into a Christmas long
😨😨
"The AI will explain a character's motives or the significance of the scene."
Just to clarify, is this the same AI that said that we should put glue on pizza and that humans could eat rocks? Because, yeah, sure, that's a feature that I can trust to provide accurate literally analysis....
No, you're right, it's rice crispies in the USA too! My family only ever uses them to makes rice crispy treats (the cereal mixed with melted marshmallows to make solid bars) and even then only once ever few years, so I often forget them, lol
Great job!
Lol, I got really curious about what cool things a rice bubble could be (some kind of colorful bubble you blow, maybe fun bath bubbles, or a bubble-shaped toy of some kind??), so I was a bit let down when I searched and found it was merely cereal.
Fun cereal! But just cereal 😆
OR ... can you procrastinate on both by having tea and bikkies?
How to measure if you're tired: Your dad, who's super into genealogy, says, "Hey, I found another cousin!"
My mouth before I can think twice: "Wow, related to us?"

Are you interested in the Kickstarter for the upcoming novel about a former supervillain, but don't know if the audiobook for it would be your jam? Well, fear not, you get to try before you buy! Hear the first short story about him in its entirety free on YouTube!

I would hope so! It's usually best when a slightly manic maybe-killer prefers you alive rather than dead 😆
And you're going to KNOW he's your soulmate because he'll enjoy your presence so much, he'll plan
to cut off your arm and take it with him (until you tell him that this will NOT disable his shock collar, at which point he'll decide your ENTIRE presence is the more preferable)

Here's me going to it!
A curly-haired woman lays on the floor with a blue and white blanket on her legs. A gray cat loafs on her back.

Have a cat decide to sit on you
A month ago, I started a third job (I know, why?!) as an audiobook proofer. And already it's making me a more conscientious narrator! Because seeing all the little mistakes that slip past others makes me more determined to stay alert to all the details in my own manuscripts. Yay for learning!
A great spin-off of the Between world! LOVING the vibes between Luca ("I'm just a happy-go-lucky serial killer, don't mind me!") and Viv ("I woke up done with this, why me")
Click "notify me" on the prelaunch page to be notified when the Kickstarter begins (bc i will be doing Early Bird specials for this one!)

What a lovely message from @bookshop.org. Glad to see them growing and growing. We CAN claim back what has been taken from us by these monstrous corporations, and it starts with things like this. Grab some books these next couple days!
Also, having a bikkie in each hand makes it count as a Balanced Diet!
I just read that series for the first time! I'm actually in the process of going through it again, trying to see what I missed the first time around
