It’s Lisa Rabey, I suppose

#GenXer about town. Recovering #librarian. #mentalhealth advocate. Pug owner. Midwesterner. Heaving bosoms. Sometimes a writer. Often a gamer. Definitely a reader. Nerd or geek, whose to say.

Sometimes I like my husband. She/they.

I contain multitudes.

I maintain mastodon.online/@BeExcessively for all of your #JaneAusten and #Bronte needs.

It's been a long, hot minute (four months) since I updated everyone with my writing projects. I started with what I was doing and ended the issue by championing F. Scott Fitzgerald's contemporaries Anita Loos and Ursula Parrott. I'm just mad no one is reading Loos or Parrott more.

While most libraries get funding via millage or donations, many depend on IMLS grants to survive. Libraries are the bedrock of the community and offer support services beyond lending books, such as educational programming, events, and support help for everything from taxes to passports. It takes a minute to fill out the form to send to your rep in Congress. oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fa.

@fskornia Someone quibbled with me on BlueSky "some people still use dictionaries." OK, well, dictionaries can't help me when I misspell a word. Google dictionary does.

The one thing that kept me going in 2024 was the things that made me happy. Something even as innocuous like water enhancers gave me something to look forward to. I round out 2024 with a list of those things. Hopefully you keep a list of things you love too!
