Hold My Heart: A dark serial killer novel that takes a sharp turn into the weird and never comes back. Available now from Ghost Orchid Press.

Getting ready for the Euro there's supposed to be a price freeze... and yet my monthly meds just jumped from 35lev a month to 50lev a month. So yeah... about that freeze?

Looking back... it was a pretty good year. Two of my favorite novels, two of my favorite shorts.

Me taking a test on face blindness: "This is absolutely impossible. No one would get these, even if they don't have face blindness. Absurd." (Score: 61%) Husband: You're right, these are impossible. (Score: 93%) But 60 or less is face blindness... soooo I'm fine. Fiiiiine.

Ramping up to the elections my feed’s gotten filled with MAGA until now it is all I see. A month ago content was about 50/50 bookish and MAGA but now it’s impossible to avoid. Also strange I no longer see any left leaning political posts. Some algorithm we live in.

Day 4: Little House In the Big Woods The first book I read to myself.

Day 3: The Devil in the White City Maybe the book that got me hooked on serial killer stories.

Day 2: Of Mice and Men Every year from seventh grade when I wrote my older brother's paper for it until I was in my twenties.

Day 1: Katee Robert, The Sea Witch What's a favorite author? It changes on my mood. But I always want to read Robert.

I'm catching up on days 1-4. Elsewhere I'm doing my most formative books. Here I'll be loose and free.

I hadn’t expected to fall so in love with a set of dinnerware that I’m paralyzed by choosing something new.

We were gifted a set of plates 13 years ago when we got married, but we didn’t think about our family growing enough that we’d regularly host parties with 8-10 people. Now that design is way out of print. I can only find one used set online and the seller isn’t responding.

https://t.co/SL0SaCiBGa So very cool to see my story among so many other great ones. Fall 2025 is a banger already, isn't it?

Flynn is a modern master of revealing the horror in the home. Her take on the serial killer is one of the best I've read. https://t.co/7hKt1vAhKT

Fox: One tried and true brand is making a big comeback as consumers tighten their wallets—Hamburger Helper. The mix of mac and cheese and ground beef is seeing a surge in sales.

SAME pharmacy and SAME pharmacist as last time “you’re a foreigner, you can’t get medicine through the national insurance.” Me - “I’m a citizen and have gotten this here.” Her - “you’re not insured” Me - “I’m insured” her - “I’ll try but it won’t work” Of course it works.

You don't have to read in your genre and you can absolutely make space to daydream about things not connected to your work-in-progress. https://t.co/0BlbFMqxOB
