I'm in a dry patch reading-wise. I could make excuses about the weather being nice and lots of projects that need doing, but really, I think I'm just not that into my book. 🫤 #readingcommunity

First day back writing in a while. Feels good to work that muscle. #writingcommunity #litfic

The weather is cooling (yay!) So I guess I need to come inside. It's the annual equivalent of being home before dark. So what has everyone been up to? What are you reading? What are you writing? #readers #writers #litfic

I just saw this review of my book, AFTERWARD. "If there were one novel to pick which depicts how people shift their lives when the unexpected changes everything overnight, it should be Afterward." - Diane Donovan Thanks for the great review, Diane.
