The state of publication depends on who you ask.

She has a Ph.D. in Literature, with specialties in American Lit, Women Writers, Feminism, Sci-Fi/Fantasy & Film Studies but please don't hold any of that against her.

Every time I say to myself "wow, self, you should really try writing in your online blog more often" and resolve to do this, suddenly there's a huge time jump to about a year ahead and I haven't written here. The times I notice this tend to sync up with the summertime, when, traditionally, I am off work (formally. I often am working anyway, but in a less "getting paid" kind of way.)

So let's just

Kim’s Quotes

“kids. “We’ll be in the break room if you need us,” said Sloane, with uncharacteristic gentleness. Still holding my brother up, she turned and led him away, first out of the bullpen and finally out of view. I stayed frozen where I was, feeling colder than any time since I had eaten the apple, and wondered what the hell we were going to do next. Demi, of all people, broke”
― Seanan McGuire, Indexing
