OH MY GOD Y'ALL!!!! WE DID IT!!!! Truly unbelievably grateful and emotional to see this number. This may be the best "How it Started, How It's Going" of my life. Thank you, y'all, for helping us make this happen. Under no circumstances should you fuck with romancelandia.

I was just sent an ARC by one of my favorite authors. If you aren't reading Martin Lastrapes, you are missing out. His "Inside the Outside" remains the best book I can never read a second time because I don't want it tarnished by knowing what happens. It's exquisite.

Even when I go to visit family members, I haven't seen most of them in 26 years other than 5 minutes here and there. It's weird realizing you don't have roots anywhere.

I drove 3 hours to my hometown yesterday for my dad's best friend's visitation. It was weird being in a place where I only knew the widow and my mom, and even seeing a few people later I'd gone to school with but mostly realizing that I didn't belong there, that I don't have a place in that town.

The bracelet version took me over eight hours to make, but because I love democracy and romancelandia, if the high bidder on my @romancingthevote.bsky.social chainmail necklace wants a dragon necklace, that is what I'll make them. Dragons love democracy & sparkles

I will be totally honest: part of the reason I pitched this week for the auction was because I thought a lot of us probably wouldn't be feeling very patriotic and might need something positive to channel our energy into. Had no idea this would be "what if king??? maybe y/no" week but...

If they win both your dice and my chainmail necklace, I could design them a collar of decorative chainmail cages to hold your dice.

Do you need your own Persephone necklace? Or maybe you're more of a Queen of Hearts type.... I can mix and match elements to make you your own dream necklace. I even have one large rainbow padlock with key left, if that's your style.

And I don't want any self-deprecation from any of you tonight! Yes, there are always high dollar items that get a lot of attention... but as the person who has run the Doom Spreadsheet since 2020 I can tell you: The bulk of this money always comes from HUNDREDS & hundreds of $25-50 donations.

I want to make more dice. I need to ink and polish the ones that are done first as I don't have room in my case to hold dice while they wait between demolding and finishing.

A dude called and said they were calling to speak to Republicans in Wisconsin and had a survey. "Do you have three minutes to do the survey?" "I will take your survey, but I'm sure not a Republican. I like human rights." He hung up on me for some reason.

We have so many medical and health insurance company calls daily for sorting prescriptions and authorizations that I have to answer every call. It's too much of a hassle to call them back vs just answering.

I have what my kids call my "customer service voice," and that's what I use when I answer an unknown number. It's pitched higher and softer with a hint of vocal fry. Most ask to speak my mom, thinking I'm one of my teenagers. It gets me out of most calls I don't want to deal with. lol

I was first a fiber artist. I spin, weave, knit, crochet, tat, bobbin lace...the works. Now, I can take those lace patterns and apply them to chainmail for fun designs. *bounces* Yes, I know I have books to write.

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.

Because I've had a few messages about them: the big dragons are $15 to $25 depending on the length. Small sized 3d friends like the tiger and mini dragons are $8. We have commercial licenses through the designers.
