From my upcoming book's publisher. Free tote bag! 😅

Imagine having 44 billion dollars and using it to buy this godforsaken website. Anyway, please buy our books so I might have a small bonus in December. If you have 44 billion dollars, you could buy almost 2 billion books from us which means you get a free tote bag.

Today's move in the Xbox / Playstation war reminds me of playing video games with my dad. I thought I was winning until he knocked the controller out of my hands and sat on me until he won.

They not only took the time to explain how much they enjoyed the story, but also kindly informed me why they couldn't fit my story into their magazine this time around. Foglifter, you're one of the good ones. I'll definitely submit again some day. <3

I've kept it quiet until now, but how cool is it to be asked to introduce THE for this wonderful, intimate chat about their new book? Please come if you can, and if $$$ is an issue, DM me and I can certainly help you out. No one should miss this.

Because: 1) It'd be nice to know why they think it's okay to ask me for that unpaid labour 2) I'm not an expert on trans-ness, I just live here 3) That's reliving traumatic parts of my life Finally, I'd rather help the trans kid deal with how to cope with their struggling parent

I'm sure you've heard by now about trans people / gender non-conformists being seers and wise persons of their community in some cultures. Is that why I'm so often asked to council struggling parents of trans kids by my friends and co-workers?

Between a day job & plotting a novel, I haven't had time to read. Today, 'A Dream of a Woman' taunted me from my bookcase. I bargained to read 3 pages. It felt like 5mins later as I sat, shocked, staring at the last page of the first story. , I am in awe of you.

A gross result of #HamOnt being an unaffordable housing market is that 90+% of our billboards now have competing rich realtors grinning at us wherever we go. I now have the same contempt for them as luxury car ads.

My spotty internet connection resulted from squirrels chewing my phone line, so I called a technician. Surprise twist: The squirrels attacked the technician trying to fix it while he was up the ladder.

Ever want to know more about McMaster university's Occult Collections? Damn right you do. I am nearly rabid for this.

Halloween is just around the corner! Register here for a suitably occult-themed book talk where we'll peruse a tantalizing selection of grimoires, spellbooks, and associated magic(k)al tomes. There may or may not be cackling. zoom.us/webinar/regist

Dave Chapelle, JK Rowling, and my GRS surgeon (Marci Bowers), who I just wrote about in my memoir, delivered to me on a plate for breakfast. No wonder I woke up in a panic. Call me an ostrich or whatever, but I think I need to delete this app.
