I'm incredibly grateful that my mother is a voracious reader, even into her 70s, and believed in the power of stories, libraries, and education, to make a difference in her children's lives. She just texted me: "I've done nothing but read all day, and I've got 7 pages left in this book!" 🥹😍

Bookish take: If LOTR was told only through Samwise Gamgee's POV, it would be a cozy fantasy. And I would love every second. #cozyfantasy #tolkien #lotr #fantasybooks #bookishtake

Being neurodivergent, sometimes I pick up odd vibes or feelings without knowing exactly where they're coming from, and will automatically think they are directed at me. Apparently this is "normal" for spicy brains, but oof, is it exhausting. #autismawareness #adhdprobs

The @nhm.org website has a nice little writeup about our new study on photophore structure of Vinciguerria mabahiss and bioluminescence in general. Bioluminescence is one of those things that is so wild to wrap my brain around! It was fun to investigate how these fish do it. nhm.org/stories/expl...

Grumpy swamp witch is trying to live her best hobbit life when the kingdom's grandest warrior (and simp) stumbles upon her, literally. One bed. One plump dragon the size of a cat. Hijinks, shenanigans, romance ensues. And she hasn't had her coffee yet. #chaospit #romantasy #cozyfantasy

You know what, I'm okay with every nature documentary, regardless of organization, being all "THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING AND ICONIC EXPERIENCE YOU'RE ABOUT TO EMBARK ON" with their orchestral scores and narrators.

Testing day for math. No break but 20 minutes right now for lunch. Thankful for coffee, diet coke, peanut butter, air fresheners, laughter, and Grace. Would really appreciate prayers that my 7th graders remember their showers tomorrow. 😷 #middleschoolteacher

One of the biggest compliments a middle school student can give you is them asking if you'll be teaching their next grade level. 🥹🥹😭😭 #teacherlife #middleschoolELA

October is my favorite month for so many reasons, and I'm genuinely sad that tomorrow is the last day. November holds a lot of medical trauma and medical anniversaries for me, but I'm going to fight those with writing, good friends, and lots of prayers. Whatever it takes.

Thankfully, I have today and tomorrow off. Unfortunately, I'm having a fibromyalgia flare. I have consumed so much water and coffee that I'm sloshing when I walk.

Almost 3900 words, and a rough draft of chapter one is complete. Writing a prose novel is wildly different than writing a poetry collection. Wildly. #amwriting #fantasy #wip #fiction
