Dangit, I missed the live AGAIN! My alarm was set for 15:00. 🤦 Correcting it to 14:00, hopefully now I’ll actually make it!

Also EEEEE, I love getting digital stickers! 😁 I sat there agonising about whether the story qualified as “horror” or not, so it’s validating that the horror curator thought it made the cut.

You have given me a stupendous idea, Leeron! I know how stickers on published books when winning awards is a thing and I’ve been mulling around how to make that something TiF does…I wonder if designing an actual sticker might be something worth doing. And if you can keep a secret, I am looking to introduce an award for self-published book that came off the Stack in 2025! 🤫
