A piece of splatoon art that I made of octoling versions of twitch streamer Masuoh, my ‘sona Rory, and my friend @spark ‘s squidkid last week. I’ve been feeling more under-the-weather for a few days now, but my streak of better cognitive function still appears to continuing. This art piece took me nearly a week, and it was a slog, because I’m just not used to working on more complex images or spending so many consecutive days working anymore.

One of my goals this year is to read more nonfiction so I've made a nonfiction reading challenge called Worldbuilder's Book Club for any writers looking to read some nonfiction to deepen worldbuilding or generate story ideas, I made this graphic (with alt text) listing the twelve categories and it's also available as a challenge you can sign up for on The StoryGraph!

Words matter. Ableist language is not tolerated on #DisabledSocial This includes the R word. I am surprised this has to be said explicitly, but it does. Posts will be deleted and users warned. Multiple warnings and your account will be suspended.

I would STRONGLY encourage people to avoid terms like "crazy" or "mental." I know it's a big shift, given how common they are, but the HUGE stigma attached to mental health is a barrier to many people seeking treatment.

We all can and must do better.

Psst: most libraries offer e-books for checkout. Downloadable or streaming audiobooks, too. Pass it on.

Each new year, I see posts on working harder, being tougher, going further.

As a disabled person, I realize this hustle culture leaves no room to be gentle with ourselves.

Lots of people set SMART goals. I came up with FUN (flexible, uplifting, numberless) goals. If I change my mind, it's okay. If it doesn't feel right or bring me joy, I can stop. If I miss a day, there's always tomorrow.

Grateful to the Washington Post for sharing my FUN goals approach in this piece. https://wapo.st/3Q6cB3b
