Finally managed to get some stitch markers up on my website. Here are just a few. I've got ring ones and locking ones, so you can take your pick. #stitchmarkers #knittingaddict #crochetersofinstagram

Been having fun experimenting with #microcrochet and have some super cute things in the shop, but I ran out of my earring cards. Have to print more, but you can get these @canalquarterarts along with tons of other art and handmade treasures. #microcr

The weather is miserable outside, so I'm going to stay toasty warm and work on some micro crochet earrings among other things. #microcrochetjewellery #grannysquares #crochetersofinstagram

The Internet: Did you know that shiba inus are the breed that is genetically closest to wolves? Me: Well, I pulled half a mole out the mouth of mine the other day, so yeah, that tracks.

I've been making a lot of these stitch markers lately, but I haven't put them on my website yet. That's on my to do list for this week. Today, I'm taking a break from knitting. But the cast-on is coming. #stitchmarkers #knittingaddict #handspunyarn

Thank you

Thank you

In the midst of all of that the week before this book launch, there was some family drama that I won’t get into. But it meant that shouting/pushing/selling books was not really at the top of my mind for the last couple of weeks. I couldn’t delay the launch, because it had already been delayed too long.

Fall for the Indie Book Challenge: Out of Time

I found this book through some of my Outlander pals, and it sounded like an interesting time travel romance. What history nerd doesn't like a good time travel romance, right?

So, my review might be slightly biased from familiarity alone.
