Really, 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?
@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 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.
