Welp in honor of getting two fail letters back, for #EffitFriday I’m posting a fun #trailride #fail!
I don’t mind the rejection because I’ve revised the fantasy short story. It’s 100% better. And it’s already back out there!

IDK how many people on here have worked in a clinical #laboratory but a few years ago I made one of those #halloweencostume memes… I have to say I’m less unhappy in Microbiology than I was in #chemistry. #tbt #throwbackthursday #MT #MLT #lab #medicaltechnologist
A fake Halloween costume package: orange background on the left side text reads: Medical Technologist Chem Lead Comes with: Resting Bitch Face, Clicky top pen, lot switches, migraine pills Not included: brain space, peer data On right side of image: picture of me. Woman not smiling, glasses, colorful head wrap, with a Levy-Jennings QC graph behind me with a sign that says: No Sniveling

(Forgot to add some joke comment like "I wish I raised that kid better, but I guess it's not all bad." or some such. But I'm usually too nervous to make jokes like this anyway and wasn't sure about posting anything, but it's #EffItFriday, so whatever! Eff it! Why hold back? 😜)

Wish I was as physically alone as I am on Bluesky today so I could scream.

I discovered I somehow deleted or reversed a bunch of BRILLIANT edits that took HOURS … you know or can imagine how I feel. In honor of that here’s the best picture of Kaladin Stormblessed to express it. By Michelle Tolo.

physical space cares at all though two of them claim to but won’t read anything. Maybe my writing really is bad. I wish I could quit and just be happy working and riding. I apologize for the pity party but it’s #effitfriday, I’m suffering, and I need a pass today.

I give up; lacking guidance I’m sharing both. Because I can’t decide. Left: opening of book. Right: the closest we get to smut (not s*xual).
From Brother’s Keeper, first book of my fantasy series in progress.
Chapter One Year of Nam-Tar’s Crossing 2761 Frithaleth, the Weaving Moon, waning That glance behind had cost him. He whipped his head around. Blinded by the sunlit glare off the whitewater, Rushak steadied his small craft by reflex. He had no time for those baying idiots, or their threats. This near the falls, the River’s deep, latent power had awakened to wreak mayhem upon all the waiden and their riders. tingling became a hum, a vibrant, golden note that sounded through him, awakening every bone, every nerve, every inch of his body. His arms spread into the warm shadow of Drisal’s nearness. Drisal’s eyes were closed, his mouth open; his breath covered Rushak’s senses. Rushak gasped and shivered, drinking him in and fell back, abandoning himself to the golden rhythm building and pulsing with their racing hearts. Waves roared in his ears, breakers of color and sensation crashing through him like remembered death, saffron, amber, crimson, black and then he was lost, sinking into the heavy rest of the mighty power that pulled him and Drisal together as one. And always, the pain sparked between them, tears marking trails like blood on their faces, tears of ecstasy hovering at the edge of something, as if some sort of bizarre consummation beckoned from over an unattainable summit.

Mood: mania

This was so me years ago when I wrecked my life.
I have a whole bipolar playlist. Don’t know that it’s healthy but it’s cathartic sometimes. Anyway, Fleetwood Mac.😍

When I want to self-harm (e.g. right now) but don’t want to hurt my loved ones thereby or, heaven forbid, suffer embarrassment in the aftermath, here’s what I do: contemplate Maedhros and blast Tool. Tool&Tolkien. Perfect combo, try it. #toolband #cope #bipolar1 #metal #Silmarillion #EffitFriday
Screenshot of a Tool concert I was attending in Salt Lake City. Lighting is pink and purple and the left side of each point of the seven-pointed star is lit white. Adam Jones is playing his flying V on the left and Justin Chancellor is on the right playing bass. Danny Carey is in the center buried in his massive drum kit and Maynard is doing his lunging dance thing on a platform above Adam. They’re playing Invincible, which I associate with Maedhros and Maglor as they approach the fulfillment of Fëanor’s legacy and the end end of their lives. An arrangement of Tolkien’s Silmarillion and Lord of the Rings books at the base of a miniature trebuchet on a table. The Silmarillion is in the foreground with no dust jacket. It’s green, with Fëanor’s sigil and is a first edition.

My ?bullshit tale: No one cares about my characters over there or anything I have to say over here. I’ve heard my actual writing doesn’t suck so it’s gotta be that and it saddens me. (Self-talk brutal-I know better than to do this.) #depression #bipolar

Good morning, void! 📢
I felt like I was dying for two weeks. Quit my sleeping pills. Back to baseline sleep deprivation I’m doing better. Mood less stable but at least it shifts to happy before plunging.
