It is my birthday week! To celebrate all the writing & growing I've done this year, I'm going to gift all my paid subscribers. I will create a character with your name in Starlight Cove, Newport Mills, or even Polaris…. Mebrady.substack.com

My latest reviews this weekend have me in *happy* tears. My goal was to touch one heart. Success!

Depression & anxiety closing in, wrapping tendrils around my heart. It hurts to feel. Universe, show me there is still love in the world. I found hearts. In the tiniest of snowdrop flowers.

My neighbor, is having panic issues over our shared well. Understandable. He just had the audacity to say to our neighborhood that I should alert them when I leave for over 24 hours. Yes, read that again. I should tell my neighborhood when I decide I'm going to leave MY HOME.

Omgosh ANOTHER ONE! Strangers reading my stories..... 🥰❣🥰❣🥰❣

Omgosh night made! I don't know this person & this just made my heart stop. They liked my story!!!!!

open.substack.com/pub/mebrady/... New story & I'm loving this one.

This short story is the result of 3 unrelated short stories on a collision course. Not planned. Even I didn't see this coming... The Making of Rayven Sinclair Mystigian Truths The Final Chapter All 3 were in my email this morning if you are a subscriber. Mebrady.substack.com

3 of my unrelated short stories are now on a collision course I did not have planned & I'm just WOW! How did I not see this?!

The Making of Ms Rayven Sinclair is live on my substack! The nefarious & 'bad guy' character in Starlight Cove. She is soooo human. Let me know what you think!!! Mebrady.substack.com

Not just one short story tomorrow, but eight drop tomorrow in my newsletter. February is my month to try different genres, different themes, to be a bit of a Ray Bradbury & just go for it. A story a day. Mebrady.substack.com

Used your story dice prompt & wrote a completely silly story. Cause, dystopia I'm kinda living & needed to be silly. Tagged you on substack. @magisternihil.bsky.social

To try and add a little comfort to the timeline, I have made one of the stories from my first collection free on my website. "Forest" peers into the thoughts of an eldritch forest god as they wander their domain. Melancholy in places but mostly hopeful, I think 💜 www.helenwhistberry.com/forest

Living in a snow globe...

Snow day. I'm exhausted!

Jimmy Carter won a Grammy tonight, spoken word, Last Sundays in Plains. This is his 4th Grammy. 🥰

Birthday Month Loves... I love photography. Kiddos, trees, nature, and FLOWERS. It makes the chaos & disorder evaporate, and my soul gets to sing. What makes your soul sing?

February is my birthday month 💗 So I'm just gonna focus this month on what & who I love. Bachelor Bison. This one right here, he changed my life 💗 Strolled out of the woods & lay beside the road as I was driving. It was MAGIC.

Another plane crash.... Our country needs someone capable & intelligent in charge.

If you're working on a multi-book fantasy series with intricate #worldbuilding, might we suggest you give us a look? 👀 🫶 And if you're curious about the #Romantasy genre - the tropes, tips, and more - we did a video on it: youtu.be/6dBFSINabEE

The outside world may feel chaotic & prickly, but you still have magic within you. Breathe deep. Before you walk out the door, play one good, I need to dance, song. Think of what & who you love. That is your bubble of magic. And that bubble will leave ripples in your wake. 💞

My new story has published. Moonlight & Roses, plus a bonus story...yep 2 stories this time 💞 Mebrady.substack.com

My New love...

She is HERE!

Not me continually looking at tracking to see where my new lap top is on the map....

My latest missive: Some Spells Against Despair . . . and an invitation to share your own

An adventure, to see if I like my photos with quotes...cause... I'm curious what I could create down the road...

My New laptop/writing case. The pockets have pockets & everything is padded. Purple & flowers, how could I not splurge?!
