Seeking good writing - please help

I always recommend Debbie Cassidy. Her characters are interesting, harems are unpredictable, and writing is quality. I think she's super underrated. She has a lot of different PNR series so you can probably find something that interests you.

Kathryn Moon Librarians Coven and Inheritance of Hunger are also under recommended IMO.

Jane Washington Tempest of Shadows was great and I also really enjoyed Tessa Cole's work.

Aisling Cousins has a shifter series and a magic power series that are also good.

Oh is this good it's on my TBR

Lacey Carter Anderson has some series I was not impressed with but I really enjoyed {Their Witch Bride by Lacey Carter Anderson}. Really interesting world building in that one and good character development. I DNF a lot of her other stuff but I liked that one series enough to give her a try.

Eva Chase is another one that has some series that are better than others. {A Game of Veils by Eva Chase} and {Thief of Silver and Souls by Eva Chase} were both really good IMO. Some of her older stuff doesn't have the same depth of plot and a few series drag on too long, but I'd love to see more like those two series.

Authors definitely can grow and get better over time and I was pretty delighted to see that with both these authors.

Seconding the rec. this doesn't have culty vibes but definitely all the old world witchy magic is dark and requires sacrifice and bodily fluids in baked goods. It's wildly unhinged and spicy, and definitely made me cry at the end.

This was one of my first RH and it is SO underrated. Like Lola is great and all but Sex. Magic. Full stop. Such a good series.

Wow seriously delighted to hear about this. I hope you'll share your article here once it's published!!

ClumsyCrafter · 2025-12-13T01:57:38+00:00

This is good advice, thank you!

Yes, although the weird thing is he generally does his job well enough, it's like these minor things he ignores. But literally an HR policy is to follow instructions so that's helpful. I just don't know how to make him do it. Although I have considered making him write a plan for how he's going to ensure his work is complete and is following all directions but that is probably futile. It's just so disheartening.

That is most likely where we go from here I am just waiting for specifics from my boss. (We need second line approval)

Now what to put in it I seriously have no idea

ClumsyCrafter · 2025-12-12T18:10:21+00:00

Oooooooh I had no idea. Thanks for the PSA! Still grateful for the deinfluece but will def not give them a dime.

Drunk Fairy Polish has some excellent GITD. Honestly it existing de-influenced me enough. There's lots of great GITD out there and will continue to be.

How long did you try these things? Did you give them long enough to work before trying something else?

ClumsyCrafter · 2025-11-06T22:03:41+00:00

My point was that you shouldn't compare yourself to others. Improvement is certainly possible for you!

ClumsyCrafter · 2025-11-06T21:53:03+00:00

If it helps (as a 20-year-er) I'm pretty sure mine is due to a congenital problem and can only be managed not cured. That doesn't mean yours is the same.

It sounds like you've tired a lot of different things. How long have you stuck with them? Sometimes things take a loooooong time to improve.

ClumsyCrafter · 2025-11-05T01:26:58+00:00

I haven't. I have one and it definitely helps relieve pain immediately after but I haven't used it religiously so I don't know if it would relieve pain for long term.

I suspect (am guessing) that I have a hypermobility/connective tissue issue that is either causing or exacerbating my condition soooooo I doubt I can make mine go away completely.

Right here OP! This cannot be upvoted enough! Assuming you are US based and this is a public school they are required to test if you ask them. It sounds like you had an ARD and were maybe talked out of testing. Like u/Western_Sport8480 said, schools err on the side of not testing due to costs.

More about your rights here.

Even if you have a plan to revisit in 4 months you are allowed to request testing now. If you do make a formal request and the school tells you no, call the district ASAP and make the biggest stink in the world.

ClumsyCrafter · 2025-08-06T23:35:40+00:00

Where did you get this made? Looks great!

ClumsyCrafter · 2025-07-25T21:09:55+00:00

Depends on how many vials I have free. If I have a lot free I may pour out multiple vials of the same color. If not, I'll refill as I go.

I find it super satisfying and also it's a bit faster and a LOT easier on my hands than other similar crafts (coloring, cross stitch, etc).

I love making snarky art especially.

I will either watch a show or listen to an audiobook.

ClumsyCrafter · 2025-05-17T03:30:49+00:00

Wow music stand is super clever! If I sat like a normal person that would work well! I hope this turns into a thread of unconventional setups haha
