Moving
I am in the process of moving away from the city, (because I am tired of being teargassed). It has been a big move and has taken up literally the last two months. The end is in sight. Holy crap do I want to be done. On the plus side. I am no longer in a city I am in hills among the moss where I belong. This is the view from my front porch now. I feel like I can finally work now.

Hard night/morning. My cat, Sparta, who is 16 (going on 17 in a couple months) may have had a stroke. Been my baby since I found her so I am not doing to well.
She is stable and doing okay, but I know that this is the beginning of the inevitable.
Just doing my best atm.
She seems happy as she has been getting all the extra attention.
Current writing advice I'm seeing on TikTok and Insta is telling authors to stop using em dashes in their work because, "AI uses em dashes so people will think you've used AI."
Y'know, the AI that was trained on the stolen work of real authors?
Anyway, I will not be doing that. What I will be doing, however, is adding a note at the start of all my books that no AI was used in the creation of my work because I, the author, did not go to university for four fucking years to study English literature and linguistics only to be told I can't use proper grammar because someone might think a robot wrote it.
Fucking, insane.
It’s not only on TikTok, it’s also on YouTube and Reddit as a cheap “tell”. Anyone who uses emdashes at all is accused of being an AI bot, because people say that even if writers use them nobody will use one online (because phones don’t use emdashes, so reviews and comments with them are AI.)
It’s a little ridiculous.
... do people not know if you long hold the dash on a phone it creates an em dash???
I've been working primarily from my phone for over a year. I've written 70k of fiction on my phone using em dashes. I... who... what.
they want me to divorce my beautiful wife the em dash........they want me to denounce our love............
They want us to divorce her (she's our wife now, welcome to the polycule) because someone else used a deep fake of her to cheat and now they're saying she's been unfaithful 😭
I will never — NEVER — leave our beloved wife. You will still have to ration my time with her, forever.
the even more annoying thing is that i’ve seen a couple of youtube videos about this that emphasize that an em-dash shouldn’t be the ONLY tell, and can never confirm AI writing on its own. so someone heard “an em-dash is always a tell for AI” and passed it around, either because that’s what they misunderstood or they thought someone else misunderstood it that way
Its kind of interesting how people are trying to tell us how to change, stylistically, so that people don't mistake us for AI as if the AI now dictates what humans do. Like, there's tons of fiction about robots enslaving humanity, but i was not expecting it to happen this way specifically.
But also— fuck you, robots. You don't tell me what to do. And fuck you, booktok— you also don't tell me what to do.
I — on my phone—abuse the emdash all the time. And I have an auto correct set on my docs, too. Like it's automatically flicked from - to— if I do a space after.
Also. My fave keyboard has ~ issues. It's like I have to click several keys that I never remember to get my ~*~ editing placeholder.... And I will legitimately type it into discord on my phone, open discord on my tablet to copy it, and then paste it in to the doc.
(if I open the doc on both devices, it gets mad at me)
But if I am willing to do that for a symbol that (hopefully) my readers never see... You think my ass won't do the same for my prescious emdash?
You think me so weak willed that I will abandon my beloved?
Telling people how they can and can not write is a tale as old as time, and the author response has always been the same, "Fuck you."
Night and Day update
I have about 70% of the editing done. I am sorry it is taking so long, but I was trying something new with this story (stories).
Normally a book will just go back and forth between two characters, but I wanted to try something different. Instead there are going to be two books and each book will be "missing" sections, so you have to read both books to get the whole story.
I'm not 100% sure this will turn out well, but I really wanted a story where you get the same scene from two sides. The only issue with doing that one after the other was the scenes became very redundant.
So I separated them, but now it kinda feels like some things are missing.
We'll see how it goes when I finally have it published, if everyone really hates it I guess lesson learned, lol.
Both books will be together in the same book, so no worries about having to buy both. It is just gonna be a two for one kind of thing.
Delays
There have been more delays than I would have liked in all of this. My editor decided that this would be the last one they work on, and with the massive influx of AI art going around I have decided that I will be drawing all my covers personally, and will be re-drawing the covers for Shadow Board, (leaving Abduction alone since I actually like those covers a lot). Also the political climate has been. . . nerve wracking. I am admittedly been struggling with my mental and physical health a lot these last few months. I am doing all I can to get back on track, but it has been hard. I thank all of you for your patience.

Moving
So last two weeks have been hectic and I have been moving from my tiny little farming town to one of the bigger cities in my state. Been a bit of a culture shock, but I hope to actually get back to producing art and books soon. I didn't have internet for a week and holy crap did that make the first week slow.
*me and partner complaining about the state of the world* Partner - As much as I hate them I doubt I could actually kill someone. I wouldn't be able to live with the guilt. Me- I just don't want to go to jail, and or be killed on site. Partner - *hugs me* yeah we are just both a couple softies Me- . . . . I think you misunderstood what I said.
In todays episode of me injuring myself in ways you can not even imagine. I popped one of the bones in my hand for overworking (over lifting) at work. the bone that is under your thumb - the one directly under that popped out of place. I was able to pop it back in but apparently I get to wear a brace for two weeks -_- How? I pull(ed) green chain, and I was pulling 8 hours a day. 6 days a week for the last couple of months. "I don't know what that is." there are youtube videos of it, and my average was 4,000 sheets a night.
So a lot of crazy shit has happened in my life over the last few months. in July I left a job, and I legit took a full month off to just decompress (when i finished two books they are in editing now) I got another job (basically last job just a different company). They got me totally trained for EVERY position in that place it took 2 months. once that was ALL done and I was supposed to start my more office duties. . . they fired me. "We thought we would have a higher census and hadn't expected to be stuck this low, so we are sorry we have to let you go." me- . . . you guys spent about 10,000 on me to train me. You have wasted so much of your (and my) time. so then no job again only NOW was running low on savings. I got another job within 4 days, (wooh) but now I am working in a mill. I actually love it. Everyone - but isn't it boring? You are just doing like the same thing over and over again. Me- oh yeah totally having an assigned task that is 100% pattern recognition over and over again and has designated break time and lunch time, sooooo terrible. Anyway this has all slowed editing down but just letting you all know I am not dead and stories are still being worked on.
me - Today is going to be a good day!
proceeds to break glasses, pour hot oil on self, break my $200 headphone, and break one of my teeth in half me - Maybe if I hold really still life will think I'm dead and leave me alone.
this didn't happen all at once, just through the last 24 hours.

if you’re having a bad day, here’s a cute little marching band
It just keeps going and getting better. *^^*
Me two minutes ago: “cry with joy? an animation of cats playing instruments made someone cry with joy?”
Me now: (sobs into a tissue) “OH MY GOD THAT ONE IS PLAYING TWO RECORDERS AT THE SAME TIME” (blows nose)
CAT PARADE IS BACK
ALWAYS reblog Cat Parade! 💕💕💕
And one of them has a little duck on its head 🤣
I’ve been blessed with the kitty marching band! I love them 💚🥰
GIVE YOURSELF A 2 MINUTE PRESENT.
YOU DESERVE TO STOP AND EXPERIENCE A SIMPLE JOY.
Sparta vomited next to the TV this morning and honestly, mood.
Oh shit did I get super glue on my desk? *puts hand on it and promptly glues hand to desk* . . . Mistakes have been made
When you are sad and just want a pick me up but then your boyfriend is all like, "No we are not stopping so you can pick up that dead coyote!"

I was re-reading the official release of Abduction and I noticed a couple formatting errors. I have fixed these and will be reuploading it and making it free for a week. It will take me a bit to get everything up because the program is finicky, but need to make the correction. I will post links when it is done. Also re-reading the whole series reminded me of the literal cinnamon roll that Liam is and he must be protected at all costs.
"You put down "no" for if we can contact one of your past employers. Is there a reason for that?" "He's dead."
