Patron Update: April 16, 2026

Hello Patrons! I’m back from the writing workshop (I’ve been back nearly 3 weeks, actually) and I had a really wonderful time. I did plenty of writing and really enjoyed taking some time fully away from work. I think that was the first trip I’ve taken in over a decade without my laptop and wow… it really made a big difference 😅

A novel way to improve skin health?

Over the last few weeks I’ve noticed my skin has been a lot better than usual; fewer breakouts, faster healing, and overall just looking more glowy and healthy. I haven’t changed my skincare routine recently, so I started thinking about other variables in my life over the past six or so weeks—and this turned up some really cool research that I had to share 😄


Patron Update: February 19, 2026

Hello Patrons! Today is the first day in a long time the sun will set after 6pm here, which sort of helps offset the fact that it’s -26°C (-15°F) as I type this. I can’t complain too much as this is the first spell of cold weather we’ve had in about a month, but dangit, it’s still unpleasant 😅
