Thanátou and Mörderin (The Blood Witch Saga) out now!
June is Pride month. This will be my third year not participating in SF Pride, the first two because of the pandemic, and this year because I wasn’t invited back…and moved out of the bay area. There’s a part of me that misses it, but the agoraphobe in me does not. I once thought we
In any “normal” year, I would already be hard at work on the site of the SF Pride celebration, working with my team to deploy donation buckets out to the groups that man our gates to collect money from Pride goers. That money goes into helping to keep Pride running, as well as giving grants
Any normal June 1st would see me waist deep in preparation for San Francisco’s Pride Festival and Parade, which usually happens near the end of June. I’d be planning training sessions for my volunteer groups and their supervisors. I’d be fielding phone calls from first time volunteers over the phone, holding skype calls to help
Wow, how did we get to March so fast?! Seems like we were only just sludging our way through the year of January, and now we’ve made a slide into March. My plans to take over the world have fallen seriously behind. Something must be done! No, seriously, while things are ugly in the world

Oops! I seem to have missed a couple of posts there last week! Sorry about that. Truth is, job hunting and Pride have eaten up all of my time lately. The good news is that I’ve landed a job that is paying me well, and not taking up all my time, and once I’ve gotten
This time of year is my busy season. Being out of work hasn’t eased any of it, in fact, in a lot of ways it’s made it harder, busier. Looking for work is a full time job, as they say. Add in the work I do for SF Pride, and some freelance editing, not to
I’ve always dreamed of getting to watch the sunrise over Stonehenge on the Solstice. While I’ve seen Stonehenge, it was closer to the Winter Solstice than the summer version. I’ll admit, summer isn’t my favorite season. The heat and the sun don’t treat my worn out old body kindly. But I do enjoy the sunsets
I know it’s cliche to say something about how fast the year is moving, but seriously, how is it June? Granted I lost a few weeks there with dealing with my step-father’s death and the chaos that surrounds an unexpected end, but still! For me, June is a crazy busy month. The kind that makes
