I’ll be on Anne Gudger’s Coffee Talk on Thursday at 7 PST! 🥰 I’m very excited to share two essays about grief, one I wrote recently and one from 11 years ago. DM me for the zoom link!

Last Unicorn friends! I was today years old when I discovered this cover from @lilithsaintcrow.com ! It’s absolutely stupendous!

Happy crafty #caturday!

Currently reading The Shadow Glass by @joshwinning.bsky.social and now I need a deep rewatch of all things Jim Henson.

Happy #caturday from the completely zonked out Bowster. Do you think he’s dreaming of large women? 😉 Or large cats? #catsofbluesky #skycats #nappingcats #bowietheorangetabby

Submitting short stories never ceases to be a sweaty palmed endeavor.

This is what 11 years of remission looks like! 🤩 Dear friends and day trips and coffee. #remissionanniversary

Might save a life.

Happy Caturday from Crafty Cat Bowie! Who’s helping Momma purge her yarn stash after years of hord - ahem - collecting yarn. 🧶🧶🧶

Hi friends! I'm thrilled to announce I'll be on the faculty for the 2025 Willamette Writers Conference! You can find more information about it here: willamettewritersconference.org. It's going to be super fun, you should all come! 😍

Bowie loves @catrambo.bsky.social ‘s You Sexy Thing almost as much as I do! ♥️📚

Every artist I know is really struggling right now. Financially, emotionally, their confidence, in general. If you like an artist's work, support them any way you can. Buying their stuff or subscribing to their Patreon is great, but words of encouragement are also incredibly helpful.

He was very upset when I needed to move my craft bag to put my hat project away… The glare could have melted metal. Happy crafty Caturday! #catsofbluesky #caturday #craftycaturday #bowiecat

Absolute champ.

Hey, look, here’s @chriswarcraft.bsky.social out there walking the walk www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/f...

Spotted at my local library! 🤩🤩🤩

I finished my first crocheted garment! It’s a super funky hooded house jacket and I LOVE it!

Happy crafty Caturday! 🧶🧶 #catsofbluesky #caturday #craftcaturday

Was reminded of this brilliant ad earlier. Well worth watching (& sharing) m.youtube.com/watch?v=92iv... #CripCoop #DisabilitySky #EndTheStereotypes

My brain is soggy and I'm trying to write an essay about the grief around medical trauma and PTSD. What kind of grief do you have for a loss society doesn't talk about? We're so focused on losing people and items. What else do you grieve for?

Guess who’s been selected as a panelist for World Con in August? 🎉 I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to discuss all of my nerdy thoughts about why disabled people belong in science fiction and fantasy! 🤩

Just submitted a short story to an anthology that’s really important to me. Happy thoughts appreciated the editor likes my story! 😅

Did you know that I work as a short form content editor? Short stories, essays, novellas, novellettes are what I love to edit! Right now, we need artists, writers, and creatives more than ever. I’ve worked as an editor for 20+ years. Let me help you polish your story! ✨✨✨
