HaldeCraftReally, really, really still trying to find My People here on Mastodon. Am I on the wrong server or something? I'm a self-employed #artist / #maker / #writer ... I make #ceramics ( #pottery )... dye #yarn ... #knit ... read #sciencefiction ... have two #dogs and eleven #cats ... am a recent #widow who loves to talk about what a wild ride #grief is ... and I'm a #Floridian scared shitless for my #BiPOC and #lgbtqia friends and family. Is that enough tags? Hello? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
PetrichorLove@haldecraft Hello, here’s a cuppa and a biscuit. It’s good to meet you. I am a lazy writer and I love science fiction. Harlan Ellison is my favourite author, who’s yours? Grief is certainly a wild ride and I am sorry for your loss. I am in the UK and also have concerns for my LQBTQ+ family.
@PetrichorLove it's hard to choose just one favorite author! Sheri Tepper? Elizabeth Moon? Jonathan Carroll? Octavia Butler? It's so hard to narrow down when you love a lot of different authors for a lot of different reasons....!
@haldecraft So very true. Do you play Desert Islands Books where you have to pick your favourite eight and if so, what would they be?
@PetrichorLove Favorite 8.... Can a series count as one book if it's in a single bound volume? Watership Down... Lord of the Rings... Alas, Babylon... The Deeds of Paksannarion... Land of Laughs... Gate to Women's Country... The Stand... Faithful Place. How about you?
@haldecraft It definitely counts as one volume or I’d have to lose many of mine.
Time Enough For Love, Moby Dick, The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy (a trilogy in 5 parts), The House At Pooh Corner and other Winnie The Pooh stories, Insomnia, Love Ain’t Nothing But Sex Misspelled, The Essential Ellison and The City Of Death.
Gaaah, there are too many missing from that list!

@haldecraft PS this is how well read my copy of The Stand is. I’m so tempted to swap Insomnia on my list but the love story is so beautiful.
