Also, I think I'm done shopping @ultabeauty unless it's something I absolutely can't get anywhere else. I'm over there crappy packaging and them in general. #ulta
If there's one thing @ultabeauty is going to be, it's unhelpful. Also sensed a bit of an attitude and my account is still wiped to 0 when I should have some points😒 Shit customer service, but I'm not going to fight for $3🙃

@Starwinxie I would love to see some mugs or notebooks! I like the water bottle but it's $35 and for that price, I don't want to have to add stickers on it😬
@bhexkunzler Lol and as far as "living off my man's hard earned income," I work just as hard managing our home. He's very appreciative of what I do. Not all men are broke and bitter🥱
@bhexkunzler Keeping the house clean doesn't require me to stay home but my husband working 48 hours straight at a time does. I guess I could just let my son fend for himself after school until I get home from work🙃 If you don't want to be a housewife, don't. Some of us want and need to be.
Hey folks. I’m asking you to please read this post if you have a moment, and I appreciate your consideration in advance of your efforts.
I have a friend and his name is Sammy Scott. I met Sammy after I published Winterset Hollow, as he enjoyed the book, and a friendship soon followed. Like so many of us, Sammy is a book lover through and through—a voracious reader, an ardent supporter of indie lit, and a champion of the stories he loves. He was a huge supporter of mine during the early days of my first release, and I’ll never forget that.
What I didn’t know about Sammy until a few months ago is that he’s also a writer. In fact, he wrote a book called “Beta” and asked me to blurb it if I enjoyed it, and so of course I agreed. He messaged me a few days ago and I assumed he was just checking in on my reading progress, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. And I’m afraid this is where things get tough.
Sammy went to the doctor after feeling unwell for a few weeks, and was diagnosed with stage 4 bile duct cancer which has spread to a number of other organs. The prognosis is not good, and I’ll leave it at that.
He asked me if I would still be willing to blurb his first book, and told me that he was still planning on releasing it on September 1st in order to cover some of his medical bills and leave his family is the best financial shape possible. I mean, what do you say to a thing like that? How do you possibly find the words?
I want to be clear here—Sammy Scott is one of us. A lover of books. A family man. And an outstanding author. He is one of the good ones. A light. And he needs our help in the fight of his life.
So, how can you help? I’m glad you asked…
1. Like this post, comment, and repost so as many people as possible get to see it.
2. Contribute to the gofundme that my friend and fellow author Nick Roberts has set up. Every little bit helps, and I’ve already donated myself. I’ll leave the link in a reply.
3. Consider purchasing a limited, numbered, signed edition of his debut novel “Beta,” which is fantastic. Sammy has set up an ETSY shop where you can buy one, and you can find all the details there. You can find that link in the replies as well.
4. Consider purchasing a copy of his short story collection “At Home With the Horrors,” which is also fantastic. I’ll leave a link for all formats in a reply.
Sammy is a kind, generous, passionate, incredibly talented individual, and he’s a neighbor of ours in so many ways. Please help if you can. This is a man who deserves it. Thank you so much for your time, and please give your loved ones a hug or a call today. Be well.
