This is an accurate transcript.

My actual conversation with @wctracy.bsky.social Me: My dream for a second space lesbians anthology would be to have T.J. Berry. Space Unicorn Blues is a queer chaos bible. Bill: actually…. Me: Shut the fuck up.

If you have more than 15 keys on a carabiner, do I have an anthology for you...

Playing Munchkin means you may find yourself in a heated discussion about whether a snake is a tentacle.

There should be an Oscar category for autistic people pretending to be human.

Every wedding is a destination wedding if it’s not at your house.

*gathers Gen Z around the fire* Let me tell you about a place called Geocities...

I accidentally got the best pedicure in the world when the nail tech misheard me and brought out all the good stuff and then seemed so sad to have to put it all back so I said, "no no, I'll take it."

I'm tired of fearing the future of the free world every time a billionaire has a midlife crisis.

They’re still here!

The view from my roof… #palisadesfire

It can’t be a good thing for us that the latest generation of billionaires is obsessed with being hot.

A fellow writer just offered to “sell me his idea” for $1,000 and if that’s the going rate I figure have about $7 million worth of ideas in my notes app.

When the book and the writer disagree on what the story should be.

The traditional Angeleno Jan 1st beach day…

This year… I hope you find a cat in a cabinet.

The energy I’m bringing into ‘25:

I want to see The Brutalist but three hours and thirty-five minutes is a lot to ask of a movie companion.

🔥

My new favorite eggplant.

Goodreads can’t tell when I’m searching for “Sydney Lumet” I mean “Sidney Lumet.”

Does Christie Yant still make the Tools for Writers spreadsheets? Those are 🔥

On the devastating devaluation of creative work:

Apple pie in a glass…

This device is a psychological experiment to see how many times you’re willing to put your hand under a sensor that produces no tangible result.

One thing I learned this weekend about "easy hikes" is that they're only "easy" in the context of "hikes."

My favorite photo from Intro to Digital Photography:

Last final complete, putting to bed the third class of this semester -- Photo 1, Black & White:

When the barista says she found your first novel and started reading it... and then she makes a *cringe* face and laughs. I'm dying. Why would anyone do this??

I'd just like to give a shoutout to Past Me, who bought travel insurance for the trip that's about to take place directly in the path of a hurricane.

Very bold of Aidan to choose The Man Who Fell to Earth vibes for his reunion date.

If you've already seen Barbenheimer, this weekend consider Jules... a quiet, funny alien comedy with a handful of acting greats. It's really lovely...

I just want to sell my stories and make enough money for an occasional funnel cake.

Yesterday on the picket line, I was having long friendly chat with a guy about shared writing experiences. When I mentioned my husband he went, "Ohhh, I didn't realize you were married. I have to go," and he literally walked off the picket line.

When the receptionist is so excited that you're also year of the tiger and he blurts out... "you were born in '86 too!!" Uh... sure bud!

Love is not correcting your spouse when they say "Victorian" when from the high waistline and low neckline the dress is clearly Regency.

One thing I do miss over here is hovering over a username and getting that useful little bio popup.

Scrolling through GrubHub wondering why it's showing me only donuts and breakfast burritos. Turns out, it's not even 9am. I legitimately thought it was lunchtime. You ever have one of those days that packs nine hours of drama into 30m?

My building manager, testing the fire alarms:

YouTube videos can be a good jumping off point for important parent-child discussions... like which one of you would stand in a box of snakes for 50k.

I never imagined I would end up crying during 45% of Barbie.

Very excited to get reacquainted with all the people I muted over the last decade.
