Hi, I'm V.
I write fantasy with warmth and weirdness.
Author, narrator, gamer, dungeon master.
It turns out that I am a weird person on the internet.
Queer, fat, autistic, anxious, and awkward.
No flirts, please.

Reminder that I have published three books and it would be amazing if you'd consider buying one!
💀 BOOKS & BONE is a surprisingly sweet story of necromancy and secret libraries with ace romance.
🐉 NON-PLAYER CHARACTER is a cosy queer portal fantasy with an autistic protagonist where a TTRPG group are pulled into the world of their game.
🎲 KIN is a TTRPG with flexible, modular character creation and three gameplay modes. And it ties in with NON-PLAYER CHARACTER!

I'm very awkward but do say hello!

She saw on TV that ghosts made things cold, and she’d always had chilly feet at night.
So she found a stone with a hole through the middle and she waited under the covers until the chill made her toes curl.
Gently, she sat up, closing one eye and holding the stone up to the other.
Shimmering and thin as a beam of moonlight, the cat stretched and resettled on her feet.
She smiled and went back to bed, careful not to kick.
She’d always wanted a cat.
Okay I'm ... moving to mastodon.art!
This is both exciting and scary. I haven't been on a big instance in a long time but I have lots of friends there and I trust the admin very much so I think it will suit me well.
I'll be importing over following and followers today. If you get a follow request from a new me, that's why!

I stumbled on the promotion video for the old #NonPlayerCharacter Kickstarter on @vicorva 's site, and wow, though the funding is over it's an impressively produced video! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/victoriacorva/non-player-character-a-cosy-queer-portal-fantasy-novel?ref=video The narration has a simple yet poignant arc, V's voice acting is so moving it made me cry, and the music and illustrations added so much to the atmosphere. It's a great example of how to use video to promote a book.
Also I realized I'd been pronouncing Arries's name wrong all this time, this whole time I thought it was "ah-rees" xD
I re-read another book last night/ this morning so it's actually been a very good week for reading. ^_^ I love it when that happens.
I'm reading a very good book! And I need to post my thoughts on Lagoon for book club soon as well, as I finished that a few days ago.

question for cat parents with multiple cats (boost plz)
so we have an issue with our 2 cats, namely that one of them hogs all the food, so she's gaining too much weight and the other is losing weight. This isn't surprising since we leave their food bowls out all day, but we clearly need to do something different.
so how do you go about feeding your cats to make sure they both get the amount they need but not too much?

If you're a creator on here, what's your primary means of collecting funds/handling subscriptions? Doing some ad-hoc research. Please boost to maybe even help someone else looking for options!

Today’s card is Temperance, finding a balance in all things. It’s a day for patience and moderation, but also grace and joy. Take a moment to rebalance and put things in order - you’ll feel better for it
Good morning folk and friends from far and near!
Today I wish you help when you need it ✨
Holy carp.
That was a good writing day.
I think ... after a LONG LONG TIME of struggling ...
I might be hitting a new normal of easier and more productive writing sessions?
Fingers-crossed it keeps up!

begposting, parental abuse 
My parents, whom I live with, have been tightening their grip on my life through financial abuse. I don't have enough money to eat frequently or healthily, attend therapy and buy medication, and I don't have a reliable source of income.
I need help to cover those necessities, and save up to get out of my current living situation. If you have money to spare, no matter how much, I would be grateful for your help.
#SoulScribes Meditation keeps judging me for getting distracted
Somehow this is still much more successful than any of my IRL attempts to meditate

Very solid first writing session today! Even though I was quite antsy this morning and wasn't sure I'd be able to settle.
Maintenance now and then more writing later! :D

I wrote a tiny card game that runs in console: https://codeberg.org/tuturto/treasure-dungeon
It's not particularly complex or anything, but maybe it's interesting for people who are looking learning some #Haskell programming. Going to turn this into HPR episode or few later in spring.

autism book kickstarter, in German
The best book I read about autism in the past few years is trying to get translated in German! It'll be called Aber du siehst gar nicht autistisch aus
They have a kickstarter, so do your thing.

musing on streaming
(ps thanks @secretlySamantha for being wonderful)
musing on streaming
Thinking about how the other day a lovely person suggested they were supporting my stream as well as my writing with their ko-fi support
and I laughed it off and was like 'nobody wants to support my stream!' even though they just said they did
and even though I would like support for really any of the things that I do
and even though I literally just put a message on my stream that says 'support the stream at ko-fi!'
and anyway I think that's something I need to get over
