I’m fat and I love my body…and I want to lose weight
As if the world wasn’t crappy enough with Covid-19 , Tronald Rump, and TikTok, Adele and Rebel Wilson aren’t fat anymore. Jesus take the wheel! I’ve seen it happening a lot lately.

In that distraction I saw some… Continue reading for Harriet…

Abandon Book 2?
Slight recap: I plugged away tirelessly at my first book for years and finally released it to critical acclaim (well, my Mom liked it). I toured the world (posted one pic on the Gram). All while trying to balance my growing bank account (Citibank thought the $60 deposit from Amazon was 'suspicious activity'). So, to… Continue reading Abandon Book 2?
