This one isn't mine, but it rings true: "We live in a society where conservatives believe in magical weather control machines but not climate change. "

Someone tell Fetterman that the Dems are in the minority and are incapable of shutting down the government. Thanks.

Five years after COVID reached the U.S., we’re still reckoning with a political failure to guarantee healthcare to everyone.

Sitting here staring at this book draft and paralyzed with fear. Am i the only one who ever feels this way?

Extremely excited to meet readers this weekend at Tucson Festival of Books! Panels, book signings and a writing workshop. Tucsonfestivalofbooks.org

My local bookstore gave away a bunch of advance copies of books from 2024. Last night I read ‘The Glass Girl’ by @kathleenglasgow.bsky.social It was good - I stayed up until very late to finish it. I was struck by how authentic the voices of the teens were and the embrace of complexity. 1/

Let's gooooo THE GLASS GIRL publishes in Portugal March 5!!

Happy to report I still have no idea what's happening in my current draft so woo-hoo the writing life! Is dramatic! And confusing!

Urghhh … in the cafe fighting tears back. This is not my usual genre of books. I picked it up because I loved the title. Had no expectations and now I’m trying to not cry … also the subject is strangely hitting hard, will come back to that later @kathleenglasgow.bsky.social

I just started reading this and am already in love with the voice. @kathleenglasgow.bsky.social

I had the best time talking to @annmariekelly.bsky.social about all things that yes included chickens!! And books! What could be better??

WE ARE STILL IN THIS. Wipe your tears. This is the difficult business of hope and defying expectation. We do not give up. We run through the tape. Y’all aren’t allowed to throw in the towel until I do. 😉 Big breath. Locked in. Let’s do this.

Not feeling the merry quite yet
