"'Then you don’t know how strong angel magic can be,' Crimson said. 'I was raised by angels. Their magic is stickier than glitter in a drag queen’s cleavage.'” ~Holy Shift, carriepulkinen.com *cue my laughter for a full 4 minutes* 😂 #IntheStudio #NarratrixNotes #WIPLines #UrbanFantasy #Audiobook

t's not just the humans who suffer. These babies have *no* idea what the fuck is going on, where their people are, and they're all terrified. I'm sitting here in tears. Felt the same fucking way after 9/11. Bless these heroes for rescuing these babies. All of them.

Yesterday was a rough one, boos. It all just sorta...decided to squat on my chest like The Nightmare. Thankfully, Dragon had just woken up, so he was able to help me find some focus & slow the thoughts maelstrom. It's not over, but it's quieter. Just... hating on my brain rn. Ugh.

#IntheStudio today, I realized that sometimes, a character decides their voice in my noggin *before* I actually read their lines & that ends up being what I ultimately go with. Not just because it amps the funny in an otherwise not-so-funny scene, but sometimes it just feels perfect. #NarratrixNotes

Had a weird, inexplicable craving for a Little Debbie snack cake. Grabbed the Unicorn cakes while at the grocery today. They taste just as I expected: confusing enough to make me want to try another.

Meta has been stupid inconsistent about passing along when people message me (one of the huge reasons my presence on Meta has been so limited of late), but today it decided to let me know I'd some messages back in August 2024 I didn't see (?!?), and I just wanted to share one I was JUST alerted to:

Look at this beautiful boy! He's legal today. 18 years old. Goodness. He's still so handsome. 💜🖤💜

*bops in* Am awake. Am lightly caffeinated. Switching gears today! Still dealing w/ magic and mayhem, but this time, down in NOLA, w/ the New Orleans Nocturnes crew. @carriepulkinen.bsky.social has knocked another one outta the park. Let's try something new. A #NarratrixNotes #InTheStudio 🧵?

*deep sigh*

Have been riding the razor's edge with my feels today. Dragon turns on LOU2, episode 2. Thankfully, I've played both games, so I knew what was coming. STILL. After, he apologized profusely bc he was caught unawares (not by what, but when). He made cake. He was forgiven.

The Department of Education exists for a reason.

"The thing about a vampire boyfriend was that I couldn’t exactly fall asleep to the sound of his breathing. He offered to give it a go, but his Darth Vader impression only made me laugh. I tumbled into dreamland with a smile on my face." ~Avi, Demons In Disguise. #WIPLines #NarratrixNotes

I swear to Spock, some fuckin' people. I have no problem with critiques; they are a tool against which I sharpen my skills. But in the case of my field let me state, FOR THE RECORD: I am only narrating the material I'm given, boos. I'm not the one writing it. If your issue is with the author...🧵

🎶I'm on them antidepressants, we feelin' good today Watch me make an entrance, yeah, I'm the shit today Antidepressants, a-a-antidepressants Watch me make an entrance, yeah, I'm the shit today🎶 Today's #earworm, blaring while I'm busy setting up for another round #InTheStudio. #NarratrixNotes

Your annual reminder.

*rocks on up & whirls in the chair* I have been SO DAMNED DISTRACTED today, boos. My brain decided to skip down LJ memory lane(?!), to remind myself what an absolute oddball I was from 2006 through 2012. 🤷‍♀️ Anywho. Yoinked myself away from that nonsense & am NOW #IntheStudio. #NarratrixNotes #sofun

Boos. This beautiful Flower is one of my favorite mews here on B'sky. She's had such a rough go, but is now in these capable & loving hands, getting all the love she can handle. Her story is heartbreaking, but @rachelgoes262.bsky.social is, to me, an honest-to-goodness heroine for rescuing her. 🖤🤍

#memes du jour

I do *NOT* know what has blown in, but I am 10000% over the sneezing. FFS.

Today's #earworm woke me from a dead sleep blasting away in my noggin'. Took me a minute to find the original artist performing this one. Gods, her *voice*. Now I'm #InTheStudio diving into another installment of Demon In Disguise. #NarratrixNotes

Mmm. Like a vault in Fallout. #memes

Unexpectedly inspiring 🤣 #Memes

"Up to this moment, my life had been sadly lacking in brawny six-four vampires wearing booty shorts, cowboy boots, and flowing silky kaftans to a soundtrack of Ella Fitzgerald belting out 'I’m Beginning to See the Light' complete with hisses and pops from the record." #WIPLines #NarratrixNotes

Chag Sameach to those who celebrate Passover! Heh. Found out that Easter this year falls on 4/20. We don't normally celebrate Lich Jesus day, but...

Afternoon, boos. #InTheStudio, 'bout to get a few more chapters done up for Demon in Disguise. It's ugly pretty out. Sun is shining. Good day for lawn work. *shudder* Which is why I work *inside*, in a dark studio lit by purple fairy lights. #NarratrixNotes #UrbanFantasy #Audiobooks

It's the little things. I've been nonbinary for...a while now. I, personally, do not get upset when someone calls me whatever pronoun they'd like bc that's just me, right? Dragon has, obvi, been given free reign to refer to me in the feminine bc that's how he met me & I love him so, whatever. ...🧵
