“Serves 2”
Two what?? Two chipmunks?? Two hedgehogs? Two ferrets?!
What is this? A serving for ANTS?
The thing about having *good* chronic illness days, is that you get excited and do all the things.
But then the next day is a *bad* chronic illness day, and you’re reminded that you are, in fact, still disabled. You’re not magically cured. It was just a good day
Worth it though. I had SO much fun!
My favourite thing about the backlash against Timothee Chalamet dissing opera and ballet, is that my TikTok FYP is now full of incredible singers belting out Nessun Dorma from Turandot.
I was obsessed with Turandot as a kid, cos my (working class) father loved it.
Vinceroooo. VINCEEEEEROOOO!!!
We filmed a whole skit of it as well 😹😹😹 couldn’t stop laughing
A still of heated rivalry, with Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie in a bar in Florida, above an image of disco and Katrina recreating the scene
Get yourself a friend who’ll dress up as gay hockey players with you for a Heated Rivalry author event. @katrinaslibrary.bsky.social I’m so glad we did this!
“I hired a stylist”
Maryam and Sham, two young girls, standing in rubble in Gaza
For International Women’s Day, I want to highlight one of the most courageous women I have ever known, Alaa
Alaa is the mother of 2 beautiful daughters. They live in Gaza. I’ve been trying to help them for nearly 2 yrs. Our donations are keeping them alive
I’ll keep trying. Donation link in my bio
You can do it! I believe in both of us, we can get there and not get sidetracked
🤩🤩
I wrote 7000 words today, and figured out the ending.
Which is great. But HOW am I going to get to that ending? Nobody knows, least of all me. #writingsky
Thank you!!
Ahh that does sound like a lot but also brilliant when it all comes together! Hope you’re enjoying the process

Haaa amazing well done!! What’s the book?
Write a time travel novel they said.
It’ll be fun they said.
Just spent ages trying to figure out how long it would take a bunch of people to travel from A to B by horse and cart.
Where do they get supplies? Are there water sources? DO WE HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT HYENAS?

Haha my friend wrote a mini HR fanfic and I dropped everything and read it so fast! I’ve never really been a fanfic fan otherwise, mainly cos I know it’d take over my life
I love Shane so much!! I also love Scott cos I adore Francois Arnaud, he’s the reason I actually watched the show in the first place. Have you read the books?
Watched Heated Rivalry with my tall, neurodivergent partner who loves order, drives a practical car, and is secretly the funniest guy I know.
Halfway through he turned to me and said “I see why you like Shane. He’s me isn’t he?”
Yes, yes he is. And I will defend Shane to the ends of the earth.
A full-ish lineup of our horror titles - this time in video form!

I started writing again!
It was from midnight to 2am and I’m a mess now, but hey, writing!
Oh no, the AI glasses are bad.
And in other news, WATER IS WET.

I did my cover reveal and launched preorders for my book, and it went really well!
People love the cover, we’ve had preorders, people have added it to their “want to read” on Goodreads, and we even have a few super positive reviews from ARC readers already!
This is like a dream and I’m ecstatic.
I’m so happy with it! Drew is so talented, I love the vibrancy
Thank you!! Drew did such an incredible job with the artwork, I’m obsessed
Yesterday was a great day! Thank you so much to everyone who shared the cover reveal. I’m in love with it.
