I have been doing these wellness checks for some time in my discord server support group for disabled and chronically ill pagans, witches, and occultists. With how difficult things are right now for so many, I felt it would be of benefit to others. I will be posting them weekly on my BlueSky Account, starting this week.

Read MoreYet again, it has been a hot minute since I have updated my blog. My health combined with life circumstances, plus depression, meant that I was not in a space to be able to write or make art for quite some time.

Read MoreLast August I began writing a book about my life. It is biographical in nature, but I don’t consider it a biography, because the focus of the book is not my journey as a creative individual, or anything else I am happily proud of accomplishing or doing. It is about the abuses I endured as a child through young adult, mostly from my immediate family, how those abuses affected me, and how I worked to recover from them and become a person I could be proud of.
Read MoreIt has been a very long time since I’ve written a formal update on my health. At the beginning of May it will be four years since I stopped taking antibiotics and entered the recovery phase of my illness, a little over five years since I started working with a specialist who could identify and
Read MoreSorry for the radio silence. I have some more spoonflower fabrics ready to release, some photos of one of the Viking hoods I’ve made recently, more items to photograph, and a host of writing projects I would like to be working on, but all of that has had to take a back seat to moving
Read MoreTeaser photo and some detailed images of the viking garb I have been working on. Hand stitched and embroidered serk, apron dress, and apron.
Read MoreApparently I had not gotten around to posting all the WIP images from July to this blog. My apologies for that. I have not actually worked on the hybrid style fully corded corset in nearly two months, but here are a couple more images of the progress I did make at that time. Project: Fully Corded Hybrid
