Going to need someone(s) else to read She Who Became the Sun so we can yell excitedly about it together.

@LeapingLilyC It was a nice surprise to have them show up so fast!

[D. B. Graves 🌻 @dbgravesauthor]

My book sleeves (and sticker) from @LeapingLilyC have arrived, and I'm so excited to use them! My books can travel safely and in style from now on

I found a pebble in the alley
did the crows leave it for me?
sun shining through
like beach glass
like a holiday by the sea

@LeapingLilyC Okay, thanks for looking into it, and I will keep my fingers crossed as well!

@LeapingLilyC Is there any chance you would consider shipping to Canada? I'd like to buy one of your book sleeves, but I know it can be expensive and a bit of a headache to send things up here, so no hard feelings if not.

I'm trying really hard to write a succinct review about why this one book was so uncomfortable to read, but right now it's two pages of 'Why [redacted]? Why would you choose to do things THIS way?'

[D. B. Graves 🌻 @dbgravesauthor]

@lauraapike I was very relieved to find them

I spent two days trying to get this old phone to open twitter without overheating to get to my drafts, and this was all that was in there:

Driving 25 km with the check engine light on. Steady rhythm of wipers against the scratched windshield. Her tear ducts clogged with ash. In the rear view mirror, her children's traumatized faces. She pushes the car to 35.

Got diagnosed with "fuck the government disease" based on my D&D characters.

This last week I'm suddenly in such a better place creatively. Reading, writing long-form, even started painting again.

I don't know if the secret is a big stack of good books, or if it was just finally time, or better weather, or enough rest, but it'd be nice if this continues

Library-issued summer reading challenge (fantasy edition).

I picked none of these books for myself, but I'm enjoying them so far!
