For some reason, they let me on the main NPR insta feed to dork out about how much I love Garth Nix's Old Kingdom books. instagram.com/reel/CUvoxJ-AC…

Mighta gone a li’l bit overboard getting ready for the Monkees farewell show.

Me and Miriam Steiner about to lose our voices screaming along at the #Monkees farewell tour.

This was so much fun! And I said what I said: The AppleTV+ series is actually an AU fanfic.

Looking forward to this!!

I AM A HORROR WUSS so I am very proud of myself for soldiering on and putting this list together!

It’s the first night in ages that I haven’t had to read or watch or research for work and LOOK what just came in the mail FUCKING HUZZAH!!

OH MY GOD I GET TO YELL ABOUT DOCTOR WHO WITH THESE AWESOME NERDS. ALLONS-Y!

This is happening in an hour!

Wolf had called at the Doctor's after breakfast & together they walked along the lanes away from the village, from the wreaths & hymns. Up Pooksdown they went & the Doctor smoked & Wolf was silent, for some things can't be spoken of, however much time has passed. #RemembranceDay
