Warning: You might see a nipple in the following shots. Thank goodness this isn’t Facebook. But this is important and since two of my cuts are near my nipple it behooves me to include it. It’s been a while. There’s a very good reason for that. I’ve been working, playing, and a bit high on […]

5 Signs You’re Trapped In An Irrational Relationship (And How To Fix It)
They wanted the effect without the right cause. The Law Of Causality Unhappiness is the result of believing you deserve something you have not earned. Life is much simpler than most people want you to believe. You do x and you get y. That’s it. It’s a simple math equation. The problem is the average […]
Character and Song #48: Arthur/Jason
Poor Arthur. His older sister is first in line to the throne of the Sun Kingdom, which means a lot of people want her dead. And when she escapes and meets up with the Black Tree crew, Arthur is left to fend for himself. This poor guy can barely find his way out of a […]
Stretching
I know, I know. Bad Michon. I leave you with this beautiful post last week and then I disappear. I have good reasons, I swear! I’ve finished up the editing for the books that are to be released this year. But I’m still going to publish them one at a time because…just because. Shut up. […]
The Black Tree Second and Ten Books in 2015
I know I’ve been a bit quiet but it’s with good reason. I’ve been busting my ass to prepare as many books as I can for publication this year and writing like crazy to finish up as many others as I can. I’ve also had a rather emotional holiday season: what with visiting my dead […]
The Illusion of Health and Other Things
These past few weeks have been so exhausting. Not because I was working hard (though I have been), not because I’m still in mourning (which I am), and not because I desperately miss my family and friends (which I do). No, the reason is much more insidious than that. My body is giving me hell […]
Speaking of Journeys…
Over 4000 miles. 39 days. Mountain ranges. Brutal weather. One bike. I recently discovered a new fount of inspiration. You see, when life really, really sucks you have to find something even better to balance it out. You can never settle for just okay. You have to find the extraordinary, you must learn to create […]
Character and Song #35: Caily (Julia)
Here she is, finally. One of my favorite characters. I think I drew a lot of inspiration for her from my sister. She’s John’s partner and wife. She sounds like she’s from New York and she’s got an attitude to match. At first, everyone on the BTS crew pretty much hates her. Even her own […]
Alienating My Audience, Or Why MSI?
You may have noticed I have a small obsession with Mindless Self Indulgence. Why does such a crazy band with insane music and hilariously offensive lyrics speak to me? Well, their music is like my life: full of craziness, fun, and a whole lot of fuck you’s to the dark and the danger. Their manic […]
No such thing as “normal”
Originally posted on days like crazy paving:
Let me tell you something about normality. Normal is a construct invented by the privileged to pathologise non-conformity. Normal is a reason to keep you out of a space because you’re too brown, too female, too queer, too trans, not binary enough, not able-bodied enough, not rich enough, not…
