With everything turning from terrible to horrific, I write. I write. I finish the damned novel and hope someone will read it. I have no leads, no contacts, I will have to act like a nobody-hero. Here I go!
Last day to enter this today. Drawing names tomorrow at midday BST.
TONIGHT TONIGHT!!! I close out the 2025 Philly Book Crawl with pictures of cats and travel stories about the places in which they live around the world. Come say hi!!
So a couple of years ago I feverishly wrote this thing about mothers and kids, pretending it had nothing whatsoever to do with my own mothering or childhood (hahahahahaha) and @publishedbyjake.bsky.social want to publish it (WHAT?). Coming towards the end of the year!!!
Woohooo! Huge congratulations, Sumitra! Can't wait to read it! π
