@AbigailFTaylor Congratulations! Wohoo!

I #amquerying again! I’m looking for a home for my Southern historical literary coming-of-age novel with themes of small town friendship, nature as a main character, family and hardships, and secrets that often cage us.

Uplifting at times but keep a box of tissues close by!

Forget about over obsessing, sometimes you just have to get the query out…..right? Right??????

After taking a lot of time off to heal from long covid and a bunch of complications that followed I’m excited to say I’m back!

I’m still experiencing some symptoms and am working my way through my medical team to get them down but I’m doing better and can actually see the light.

@ingrid_rojas_c @USLatinoMuseum that’s beyond words, I’m so sorry this is happening. let me know if there’s anything that can be done to help. completely hateful actions…

@jzux I write about it! getting it down on paper gives my mind the opportunity to obsess while riding my mind of bad thoughts. then get out of the house or start a project.

I celebrated 6 years of being married last weekend and he snapped a couple pics that I finally feel good about since coming down with long-covid. marriage isn’t perfect at all but I do feel lucky to have a partner who was patient and nursed me for nearly a year
