Hello! I'm C.M. O'Brien, and I am a storyteller. I also like reading, tango dancing, playing Tomb Raider, and watching too much TV. Knowing me, I will probably barely touch this account as I have barely touched my other social media accounts, but who knows 🤷
Anyway, thanks for being here with me!

This week on "I am My Own Worst Critic:"
Don't you hate it when you forget your own lore half-way through a scene?

This week on Fun With Words at Work:
Coworker: Whenever I hear the word "disperse," for some reason I always think of "dismember."
Me: I mean... That's a TYPE of dispersal... 🤷

Next on my list of weird things I have done as a writer: acting out pretending to slip on a log just to see if it's possible for my own heel to smash me in the crotch. Why is this necessary to both write about and act out? I don't know.

I have this posted on our website already, but before I go any further with this account I want to make one thing very VERY clear. I will be the first to say I am not the perfect ally (Growing up in a small, conservative town makes it hard to learn things), but I intend to always try my best.
