A.D. “Addie” Ellicott has a drinking problem. The drink she has a problem with is tea; it's grown challenging to find space for all her teapots. She can no longer stack books in piles on the floor because her dog got jealous of all the attention they books were getting. Find her as @aciddropwriting on Instagram, Bluesky, the app formerly known as Twitter, and Tumblr.
