A couple of other fans at the movie theater gave me friendship bracelets! They were friends and they first met at the bead section of Michael's 🥰 #taylorswift #tloas #swifies #taylorswiftreleaseparty #meetcute

I share this cartoon by Rachel Greenburg every fall. 😊 Have a good weekend! #fallvibes #friyay #art #comics

Let's gooooo #taylorswiftreleaseparty

Here's the complete review of my romance novel HER TIME TRAVELING DUKE, from @berkleyromance.bsky.social, in @libraryjournal.bsky.social. I am so excited to have the word "hijinks" in a book review! 🤩 #booksky #chicago #romancelandia #romcom #romantasy

We’ve all been laughing about scented books, but I would literally pay $300 for the retired Bonne Bell Lip Smacker I was constantly wearing as I first read Lord of the Rings in the 4th grade. Whenever I reread LOTR, I can smell that Bit-o-Honey scent, in a reverse Proust madeleine effect. #booksky

The most common error I see as a book editor is incorrectly punctuated dialogue. NO: “Nice to meet you.” She said. YES: “Nice to meet you,” she said. NO: “Likewise.” The editor said. YES: “Likewise,” the editor said. NO: She smiled, “Hi." YES: She smiled. “Hi.” Repost to save a life 😂 #writesky

I think today is the last day to buy this sweet, cozy, spicy, romcom novel, set in Chicago, for only $1.99 on Kindle! You can’t buy a pumpkin spice latte for that. 😊 Read it before it becomes a Hallmark movie! amzn.to/4mHob3u #HerKnightAtTheMuseum #art #psl #medievaltimes

People say, "Taylor Swift just writes breakup songs," and A. it's not close to true B. it would be FINE if it were true! This has been one of the major themes in songwriting and poetry FOREVER. Sappho. Neruda. Elvis Presley. Marvin Gaye. The Clash. The Cure. EVERY MEDIEVAL TROUBADOUR.

For you, @ofcwrigleyfield faithful.

I think this is hilarious and awesome. Seeing something so genuinely ridiculous is a breath of fresh air. Okay, maybe not fresh 😂 #publishing #booksky

Some of these names sound lovely, but they have sinister meanings! If you’ re looking for a spooky name for your character (or your baby… I don’ t judge), check it out! www.bryndonovan.com/2022/10/17/s... #spookyseason #writesky #horror

I told someone I was going to the Taylor Swift release party thing at the movie theater tomorrow and they said, "Ugh, won't there be screaming Swifties?" and I was like, "Yes, I *just told you* I was going!" 😂

If you haven't read my sweet and spicy romance from @berkleyromance.bsky.social, in development for a Hallmark movie, now's the time to get it for $1.99 on Kindle! PS: they go to a Chicago Cubs game! @cubsbot.bsky.social #psl #romancelandia #amazon #kindledeals #softromance #october1st #booksky

I found more joy in life this way.

I am wishing everyone the October-est of Octobers. #October1st #happynewmonth

While You Were Seething is on the first page of most requested romances on Netgalley. Every single one of my trad books has managed that, thank you everyone.

Oh my goodness yes.

Please - stop doing the screenshot no link thing on Bluesky. This platform does not punish you for posting a URL. You picked up the habit from Meta apps? Stop doing Mark Z's bidding. Link ESPECIALLY to authors, reporters, bloggers, etc. where you quote the work.

Some people don’t like me and that’s okay. Not everyone can be awesome. 😊

Facebook just removed my private reader group without warning (it was small) and they're going to delete my author page for the 2nd time (no reason.) I guess I'll just become a famous YouTuber 🤷‍♀️😂 #socialmedia #authorlife #writesky

Really don't appreciate Southwest Airlines shaming my reading choices #booksky

Landscape, by Mary Oliver

"Something ineffable happens when you write down a thought: You think something you did not know you could or would think and it leads you to another thought… the process of writing itself leads to previously unthought thoughts [and] crystallizes half-formulated or unformulated thoughts" - Lynn Hunt

Portland is beautiful and I hope I can go back there soon 🩵

This only happens to you once

If we miss the old internet, we have to create that content and follow others who create it. *candid photos *filtered photos of nice things *goofy quizzes *questions *quotes *blog posts *selfies *hobbies At least on Bluesky, you create your algorithm. 💙 #bringback2015 #tiktok #meta #instagram

I’ve had a tough couple of days, but I got to teach my Irresistible Query Letters & Pitches workshop at Moonlight & Magnolias today, and people seemed to like it and I’m so glad. 🥰 #GRW #writesky #romancelandia

The Chicago River transformation is amazing! Chicago is also the largest U.S. city to power all its city buildings with renewable energy. It is the 7th city in the WORLD to achieve LEED Platinum status for its eco-friendly buildings (which are also gorgeous!) #environment #nature #architecture

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

I just heard this good news: a group called Organ Ox created a device that keeps organs viable for MUCH LONGER, which will enable thousands more transplants and save thousands more lives! www.bbc.com/news/article... #medicine #health #kidneydisease #liver #heart #lung

These daily email scams to writers are cracking me up. "Hi Bryn, I'm fellow author Emily Henry. What inspires you as a writer?" 🙄😂 #writesky #authorlife

Ms. Jenkins knows a good time when she's part of one! Thank you so much!

We were talking the other day about how the loss of RWA meant it was harder to find good cons and good craft talk. Chicago Sprint Fling has great guests and offers a hybrid online program as well! Do recommend for anyone interested in romance!

this may brighten your day tbh

Dudes rock

I can't believe* this about crashed the whole AMC website! We got our tickets! #taylorswift *am not surprised

She emailed back and said, "I am obsessed with this idea!!!" 😀🩵

Trying to work while hoping my agent loves the new proposal I just sent her because I LOVE it 😬 #writesky
