HELLO FRIENDS. Guess who hasn't posted in a million (okay, five) years despite all best intentions? But continues to be straight-up desperate to replace all other social media with Dreamwidth? I'm all set up with Tuta Mail, too, and I've been using Ecosia for awhile. We can have the internet without psychic damage, damn it.

In 2025, I got married, moved into a condo, and started a new job. New job is great with pay and benefits and low on drama, so far—fingers crossed. I'm gradually working through all the traumatic aftereffects of finally being a children's book editor, then not being a children's book editor, then surviving the first few years of a pandemic, then being a children's book editor again, then not being a children's book editor again. But I am currently working on my first small press picture book (with an artist I found in Armenia, no less!) so I suppose I can't be stopped.

These are...terribly anxiety-making times, but I am so lucky to have the friends I have and the quality romance stories (who else is into Heated Rivalry especially the Kip/Scott parts? let's chat!) to boot. In 2026 I hope to continue to serve my communities and heal. Love to you for being here.

Hello
Hey there! First of all -- OMG Congratulations! So much happened for you this past year, and I somehow didn't realize *any* of it! I'm very pleased to hear about the *getting married* and the move and the new job. Here's wishing you the best with all of it!

DON'T PANIC

We celebrate peace. Yet we pay no attention to the ways of curing aggression in human beings. And when one sees in psychoanalysis hostility disappearing as people conquer their fears, one wonders if the cure is not there.
