Another quarter gone! And a much more expected result this time—barely any of my goals met. A true return to form. In my limited defense, April and May are my busiest calendar months, and this time I got to do them while being sick and travelling over Easter. (I walked up Bluff Knoll! The StirlingContinue reading “Halfway Point”

End of Q1!
It’s the end of March! And wild success of success: I met all of my quarterly goals🎉✨. This is a first for me, I make my goal sheets to be a little bit of a stretch so that I don’t feel bad for not meeting all of them. They’re meant to be kind of aspirationalContinue reading “End of Q1!”
February Update
We’re halfway through Q1! A couple of days ago. And with the posting of this update, I’m halfway through my quarterly goals. I’m claiming that as a positive; finishing the last three chapters of Immortal Rose has been going at an absolute crawl, but it is going. I did finish the third last chapter andContinue reading “February Update”
The overdue January update
Okay, let’s be real, I should have made this update when Everyday Anxieties stopped after October! In my limited defence, November and December were kind of a shit show, and I had to pause a bunch of stuff, so I wasn’t too worried about making a grand closing statement on the series for the year. EverydayContinue reading “The overdue January update”
Happy October 🎃
Kmart already has the Christmas stuff out and did before the month started so I’m doubling down on celebrating Halloween this year. It’s a Sleepover Suite month! Keep your eyes peeled on Patreon for The Candy Lady! It turns out once you get past some of the more outrageously well known urban legends you endContinue reading “Happy October 🎃”
Happy May
I’m 30! Finally out of the hellscape that was my twenties, hooray! Speaking of hellscapes: I’m trying something new with the Everyday Anxieties in the form of content warnings. I was hoping to get some straightforward spoiler tagging going on where you could just click on it, but my lacklustre searching skills couldn’t find aContinue reading “Happy May”
March Updates
I caught ✨COVID✨ again! The next Anxiety will be up on Patreon next week instead of this one, because I need my brain to be working when I edit things and make PDFs or I end up lying under my desk moaning about default save destinations in Microsoft.
Happy 2024!
…Belatedly, by this stage. And welcome back to hopefully regular posting! This week marks the launch of the Everyday Anxieties short horror series, which will be posting here on this website once a month (excluding February, June, and October), and a week earlier on my Patreon. Everyday Anxieties is a series of short, standalone, horrorContinue reading “Happy 2024!”
Author Update 11/07/23
Welcome to July! Happy new financial year, if you celebrate. I’ve been making some progress and changes on the back end to get back into posting my work and taking those baby steps forward again. The Sleepover Suite series playing with urban legends will be continuing as a Patreon exclusive, with Bloody Mary coming inContinue reading “Author Update 11/07/23”
All Cats are Grey in the Dark
The shadow by the hall cabinet is long and threatens to swallow my whole body as I linger in the dark near the stairs. I breathe slowly and watch it extend along the rug as sunset’s light dwindles with patience that can only be learned. It is in moments like these I thank my blessingsContinue reading “All Cats are Grey in the Dark”
