🎶 Now I never don’t cry at the bar 🎶

So, in launching my new biz, I started an IG account, and did something I’ve never done before. Created a video with a voiceover. 😬

I’ve been so busy working around the clock these past couple months, I’m entirely out of touch with what’s going on in the news, and checking in today, I have never been more happy to be out of touch with what’s going on in the news.

Excited to announce our 3rd annual MGHub Off-Social-Media pitching event for all ages of kidlit: PB / CB / MG / YA Click to learn more… #mglit #kidlit #pitch

I launch my business tomorrow!!! 😱

I’m getting so close to launching my business! It’s taken me a lot longer to get it ready than I thought it would, but I’m feeling so good about it!

Chipotle for dinner tonight. Three hours ago and I’m still so full I can hardly move.

ADHD is such a bear sometimes. I’m having to trick myself into working on things related to my biz launch by listening to podcasts on the topic to make myself think I’m learning something new. 🙄

A bit of good news for us all: Jackie and Shadow, a pair of bald eagles, have hatched TWO eaglets this season! 🎉🎉

Check this workshop out!

The project that has been keeping me so busy is a new business venture. I’m totally stoked. And there’s so much still to do, but it’s really exciting! 😁

Let’s fucking gooooo

I’m going through a major ADHD hyperfixation phase with this project I’m working on. Wild hours, inability to do anything else… this is intense!

Sonnet-vision!!

Been a while since I’ve had anything to say. Everything’s alright, just focused deeply on a new project. Hope to have more to share before long. How are YOU doing?

Hey #writersky whose participating in #questpit? I'm looking to swap support with the rest of the #writingcommunity

Really good information about writing a scene, from Jane Friedman. #writingcommunity #fiction #ilovebooks #writing #pnw janefriedman.com/scene-and-st...

Tell me something good. I need some good news. I’ll start: my kid got up and did chores without any reminders or prompting. Just cheerfully did what needed doing. 🤩

So, all the news is bad right now. Nothing is safe. How can I keep being creative in this timeline??

So the NFL is cool with racism now?

Hoping to reopen to queries soon (this month), and when I do, I'll be particularly excited to see: -Non-fic by experts; open to anything, but I'm excited by women's issues (where's my menopause book???), politics, and prescriptive NF in parenting, love, sexuality, career fulfillment, etc. /THREAD

So… weird food combos eh? Ketchup on Nacho Cheese Doritos Grade school dare, and it was kinda delicious.

Hey, consider this a wellness check. How are you doing, really?

Daaaaannnggg! Beyoncé! Way to go, woman!

Alicia Keys - “DEI is not a threat, it’s a gift!” ❤️

Is Cynthia Erivo even human? Her voice is ethereal, otherworldly! I was so, so impressed.

Chappell Roan rendered Trevor Noah speechless!

Beyoncé!!! She really didn’t expect to win - love it that she did!

Go Sabrina!!

Errands day today. So many stores to stop at. Wish me luck!

Lots of new folks joining BlueSky right now! #Welcome!

I haven’t been able to write for the past couple weeks. My mind rebels whenever I sit down. The story is in there, but it seems to want to stay there, and that’s not helpful. I wish I could just shake the story out my ear. That would be helpful right about now.

What's up? I've been working hard at streamlining and simplifying my bedroom, bathroom, and closet. It's been surprisingly difficult work, but it's moving along. I'm excited to get it finished after years of dealing with a painfully overstuffed space that should be restful and cozy. Almost there!

An updated #agentguide for my dark fantasy with paranormal horror elements, AN OFFER SO GRAVE. If you love dark academia or unreliable narrators, it may be for you. I’m pleased to say this has editor & agent interest. Full manuscript available upon request 🖤😈 #amquerying

Chiefs win!!! *whew*

GAAAAAAHHH I have tried ignoring this game all night - it’s too close.

Ok, who all is participating in #2025Pit? I will be pitching only one book. If you want on my list, let me know by commenting or liking this post.

I made a list of all the pitch events in the BlueSky #WritingCommunity. I've included links to hashtags, whether they're an agent pitch or a hype event, what manuscripts are included, and the accounts associated with the events! ❓ What events don't I have listed? docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Bingo. nypost.com/2025/01/19/b...

💯 We must document the actions of the collaborators. When Donald Trump is gone, they will pretend they had opposed him. We must not let them erase their dangerous enabling.

Today’s pitch event has begun, #WritingCommunity! #P2Ppit is an agent/editor pitch event open to all writers in all stages and all genres. Only comment or repost if you’re an author - likes are for agents/editors/publishers ONLY! Good luck!
