Good Girl Giveaway
Added 2022-05-06 04:03:31 +0000 UTCThe incredible incomparable Anna has written an incredibly good book. “Good Girl” comes out on May 17th and I’m going to send TWO lucky Patrons a copy!
To enter leave a comment with a good thing you’ve done for yourself recently and I’ll tell you how good you are, and then next week I’ll randomly choose 2 entries to win a copy of Good Girl!
If you live in Canada (or have a Canadian friend* who will mail it to you) you can buy a copy here.
(*totally willing to be that Canadian friend if you send me a message FYI)
From her publisher:
Secretary meets Fleabag in Anna Fitzpatrick's hot and hilarious comic-erotic debut.
Lucy tries so hard to be good. She was always a good student, tries to be a good friend, a good citizen, a good feminist, and now she wants a lover who will give her a good beating, preferably after tying her up.
Dating swings from the sublime to the humiliating, but then Lucy hooks up with someone who challenges her to pursue the writing career she has been letting idle. When she discovers a teen magazine from the 1970s, it sparks her imagination and her life finally seems to come into focus; but as she learns more about how women were treated behind the scenes, she has to decide what to do. How to be true to herself, as chaotic as she believes herself to be; how to be good to those around her; how to survive as a young woman in the still messy media culture of 2015.
Surprising, sexy, and hilarious, Good Girl is a thoughtful and endearing portrait of a young woman unsure of what she’s supposed to want from a world where the rules keep changing.

Good girl! That’s a lot of good self care.

2022-05-12 19:14:02 +0000 UTCI forced myself to go to our weekly coffee night even though I was EXHAUSTED, and THEN i gave myself permission to leave early after I got to see everyone and was still very tired. I'm very much pushing back against that self-isolation instinct, so it was a win all around.

2022-05-11 11:41:35 +0000 UTCI've been struggling emotionally quite a bit. I've been taking walks around a lake close to my house. It has been helping to clear my head. Getting to see all the critters that live there has helped too. I have also been painting! The painting has been surprising therapeutic too :)

2022-05-11 02:58:12 +0000 UTCComing out of a many, many month-long major depressive episode, I've been stopping myself from jumping into the ingrained habits that contributed to it. I'm going slow, listening to my body and my heart, and prioritizing myself! Digging into all the things I love - making art, learning new skills, sex, reading, being outside as I go :) Also finished up my matching tattoo this past week and the 7 hours of sitting was totally worth the beautiful art on my hipdips!

Heart
2022-05-08 15:57:07 +0000 UTCI’ve stuck hard to my boundaries and prioritising myself despite knowing it means big life changes! I also worked up the courage to leave a degree I was nearly finished with but hating for a degree I thought I wasn’t good enough to do. Here’s to be entirely terrified and doing it anyway! 😅😅
