Grace the vagabond

I've heard all the cool kids have Substacks now. Well if you want a giant life-update & all of my musings and reflections as I learn to live with an incurable illness, I have a Substack for that. Intro and post #1 are up: open.substack.com/pub/girlinfree…

“I used AI to write my novel.” Okay, but Treebeard spent 248 years naming a hill. Not everything quick is worth keeping.

I need a whimsical detective novel based on this. And the detective must be Flannery O'Connor.

A fun little short story of mine “The Ewe, the Yew & The Dragon Blue” was published in “Quills & Tales” magazine today. If you’re looking for a fun little post-work read tonight, I got you covered: drive.google.com/file/d/1TAvQJe…

Its so dang hot and my neuro disease makes hot weather particularly hard to bear…so it is my God-given right to drink a gas station slushy whenever I darn well please for the rest of the summer.

I think we lost something as a society when we stopped calling criminals cool stuff like “Three-Fingered Jack” and started calling them stuff like P-Diddy.

Wrote a Substack post about some of the problematic ways we talk about healing & God's will in the Church. If you're disabled/chronically ill OR if you're involved in deliverance ministry, intercessory prayer, or the Charismatic Renewal, this one's for you:girlinfreefall.substack.com/p/when-god-wan…

It would be cool if the next trend in literature was being good at writing

I have such a mighty need to feed a horse directly from my hand. Its been too long since I have felt the fuzzy lips and got to braid a forelock. Let the other horse girls understand

Ok. KPop Demon Hunters was actually fun, for once the marketing was correct

I became disabled overnight in my sleep with absolutely no warning at the age of 27.

Unironically: I think this is exactly what JPII meant by “The New Evangelization” lets go

Don’t normally politics post but: If the BBB passes, I’m beyond screwed. I’m too disabled to work but told I’m “too young” to get disability. And now I may lose access to my healthcare. The government has never made it more clear they’d like all disabled people to f off and die.

From my old community FB page. Gosh I miss living in rural Kansas.

My god, was NO ONE required to read Fahrenheit 451 in school?!?

Nothing like some free Shakespeare in the park on a summer night. Alas, poor Yorick.

All of my friends live in incredibly inaccessible apartments. And I know people think “well, if a disabled person is renting, they can live on the ground floor!” But…have they ever considered that people living on other floors have disabled friends/family who can’t visit now?

As the world’s highest IQ record holder, I believe that Jesus Christ is God, the way and the truth and the life.

Anyone want a cat? Mine just puked on my brand new pair of pastel blue shorts & now I’m thinking about evicting him
