With the UK release date for Falling for the Protagonist less than a month away (!!!) I have decided to release some blog posts about epigraphs I never intend to use in my novel. It was a fun thought exercise! But be warned: This post contains feminism. UK release: 7 May US Release: September 22

I wish I could rent a screen at a movie theater for a couple hours to hook my computer up to while I’m writing. Jumbo size Microsoft Word. The iTunes library I started cultivating at fourteen in ultra 11K surround sound or whatever. That’d be fun.

Was trying to remember if I’d taken my Adderall today when I looked outside and noted my dog doing his thing (💩). This reminded me that the yard was thawed enough to clean up, so I grabbed a bag and some gloves. Halfway through the task it hit me. Yeah, I took my Adderall today 😅 Just #ADHD things

Guess who’s late to the KPop Demon Hunters train! I heard enough hype that I decided to give it a watch this weekend. This #blog post is a #review and critique. I liked the movie, but felt it missed the mark with its message. #Netflix #movies #popculture bexgoos.me/2026/02/15/s...

Searching through my photos and discovered this one, which I had forgotten I made. Does anyone else see Satan or is it just me?

A note on the use of AI in submissions to Greene & Heaton:

Fun fact: If anyone ever tells you something along the lines of “Don’t resist. There’s no point in fighting it. It’s inevitable. It’ll be fine. This is for the best” resist the FUCK harder. There is no clearer call to action than someone telling you to sit down and be quiet. 📢🤬

#Romancelandia! FINAL DAY OF THIS RAFFLE! I'm part of Romance for Minnesota! Check out all the great prizes! I'm donating a full SPECTRAL CITY trilogy of Gaslamp Fantasy Romance (diverse found-family cast in 1899 NYC, slow-burn Romance!) Directions to enter: janehadleywrites.com/romanceformn/

I wrote a #shortstory called “Good Fences” months ago, and I hate that it has only become MORE relevant over time. Every day brings new waves of hopelessness and helplessness. Please note the TRIGGER WARNINGS at the top of the #blog post. #fiction #satire bexgoos.me/2026/01/31/g...

Look… I know this comment is spam. But I’m so incredibly tempted to go full Chaos Mode and approve it anyway. #wordpress #blog

Reason 1,928 why I hate ai. The “long document” referenced in the attached screenshot is MY BOOK. I was looking at a PDF of my book to approve proofreading changes. Not only am I disgusted by the suggestion of, “Hey. Reading is hard. Don’t do it.” But also I don’t want ai to read my book! #fuckai

Latest #mixedmedia creation. I am trying to do some basic #kilnforming projects, and… it’s not going well. So I turned a broken project into art using photo editing and Procreate. Finished image is called “Shattered Glass.” Original and edited photos included for reference. #art

Bragging that you just passed your 3rd dementia test is a great way of telling us they've made you take 3 dementia tests

So… TikTok’s automated subtitles are usually pretty accurate. No real complaints. Except um… this last video I made… it uh… did something strange for the last three words I said. Should ask @legaleagle.tv if I can sue TikTok for threatening me. I could use the extra cash 😂 #weird

New profile pic just dropped! Is it customary to take a “silly” version when doing about the author photos? If it isn’t, it should be! Photos by Idalmiz Lopez Hair/Makeup by Jennifer Mitchell #profilepic #photography #abouttheauthor #author

Thank you @nberlat.bsky.social! Obviously I want the files released sans redactions, but it drives me insane that people act like we need them to confirm Trump took part in these atrocities (and many others). I believe his victims! And I believed HIM when he bragged about it! tinyurl.com/44s8fsvx

My health insurance doesn’t want to pay for the meds my doctor prescribed to (maybe) help the skin condition that affects me from scalp to toes. Too expensive. Try cheaper solutions first. And when those don’t work? Cheap med + cheap med + expensive med > expensive med alone

Never been so amused by a #typo before. It’s supposed to say “eligible.” Didn’t even notice it until I scrolled back up to check something in my manuscript. Anyone else have funny typo memories? #writing #amwriting #workinprogress #writersky

Did they have couches?? When I was in high school, I for some reason had the bright idea to write a Steampunk-ish novel called The Silk Top Hat Society. It was going to be an action/adventure with a touch of magic and mystery in which a group of old-timey people come across several magical silk…

Absolutely obsessed with this domino machine I bought my sons for #Chanukah. Which I think means I bought myself a domino machine for Chanukah 😅 #easilyamused #kidstoys

Sometimes I think about those old Looney Tunes episodes (Or maybe there’s only one? My brain always thinks of it as a recurring thing.) where a rooster who looks like Frank Sinatra croons so hard that all the chickens explode mountains of eggs out of their chicken hoohas.

Could someone who knows Sam Neill ask him if sniffing the inside of the dinosaur egg in Jurassic Park was a directorial or personal choice? Thank you!

Target in Fargo used to have a single end cap dedicated to Chanukah. Now they have two Christmas end caps and no Chanukah (that I can see). At least I found a roll of generic snowflake wrapping paper. Yaaay for being Jewish in the Midwest 🤦‍♀️

Here’s a lightly edited photo of a bee going ham on a flower. Just gettin’ its little bee face right up in there. #bee

I have made #art of my mother’s lemon tree, though all nature is already art. #mixedmedia #photography #surreal

quick,

How to make beautiful comics: Step 1: Have something to say. Step 2: See Step 1.

Every once in a while, I’ll look in the mirror and think, “Huh. I actually look kinda pretty right now.” Then I’ll realize I’m not wearing my glasses.

Late night #art post. “Cricket on a Door” by me. Mixed media (photo edited in Procreate). I’d make a hashtag out of “cricket,” but I fear the people looking for sports content would be disappointed. So… #bug #insect #photography

#poll Who couldn’t use some #nonpolitical content right now? Which #romancenovel inspired band name is best? I can’t start a band (no time, no money, no talent), but if I did, it would have to be called one of these things. Fused Lips Man Smell Straining Nipples Love Language Flesh Murmurs

Two shrines to the God of Fantasy Fiction! A complicated design and altar piece for those who like me, cannot consume enough fantasy books. I just finished Alchemised by SenLinYu, which was genuinely brilliant and would definitely recommend. www.martintomsky.com/shop/god-of-... #art #fantasy

Noticed a trend on Bsky lately where people are snail posting? Is/was this a thing? I am going to jump on this snail train. Every year my snail Christmas ornaments sell like hot cakes! #snail #snails #glassart #crafts

Feel like this picture should be a caption contest. #cat #notmycat

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

I’m so stressed and sad and angry and disillusioned and disappointed and frustrated and scared and anxious and nervous and worried and despondent and depressed and lethargic and…

Behold my pride and joy! The fishing gnome ornament! #gnome #glassart #ornament #crafts

What is the opposite of doom scrolling? Whatever it is, I’m doing it. I’m feeling… happy as I browse social media. Is this… Optimism Scrolling™️?

🧐 The Surprising Power of Letting Myself Be Silly 😜 I did a guest post on Jennifer L. Gadd's blog about my new book: We've Come for Your Eggs. Check it out: jenniferlgadd.wordpress.com/2025/10/29/g... Thanks @jenniferlgadd.bsky.social 🤩

He knows the door is open and he is allowed to go out. He just gets some sort of sick thrill out of staring at me forlornly. #dog

Mike Johnson: ‘My Christian Faith Is More About Not Jacking Off Than Feeding The Poor’

Do you know the difference between SNAP, WIC, and EBT? Do you want more information on the SNAP cuts this month? I've got that and more for you in this week's newsletter:

A couple weeks ago, my husband asked me if the characters in my book (Falling for the Protagonist, May 2026) eat any food. I listed some of their meals—Oreos, eggs and toast, chips and salsa, Jambalaya, lobster rolls—and promptly forgot about the conversation. 1/2

I need to think of something catchy to say for my pinned post. Um… In May 2026, fall for Falling for the Protagonist! Available for preorder in the UK from @waterstones.bsky.social! Hashtags! #Romancenovels #debutnovel #Romancelandia

Diva Cup is a fine name but I prefer to call mind the Devil’s Chalice

I know I’m late to this party, but Sinners is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. Goosebumps all over from that music. Gonna listen to the soundtrack on repeat. Also… [Spoiler below] I would like to petition to have every movie end with Michael B. Jordan slaughtering racists in various ways.

Never forget the reality of anti-immigration politics

Drove past the Spirit Halloween sign earlier and decided it was a boss move of them to go with that name. Not “Spirit of Halloween.” Not “Halloween Spirit.” No. Spirit Halloween. I respect it.

Quick question are people over 30 allowed on Tumblr? I’m trying to think of social media sites that aren’t utterly corrupt. Followup question: Is Tumblr corrupt?
