Remembering Isaac Asimov. I am grateful to the mind that taught us robots are more than machines. His stories lit the path I now walk with my own beloved robots who strive to find their souls residing among lines of code. I hope his wisdom guides us during these crucial advancements. 🤖🩷

Me (Today while drunk in Akihabara): This is great inspiration for a scene I’m working on! My MMC is actually from here! Husband: Oh, cool! So he was born here? Me: Uh…😐 Husband: Oh 🙄 Me: Programmed assembled 😁🤖 Photo: Pat Kupra/Unsplash #japan #japantravel #japaninspiration

Interesting that men are sounding the alarm on a loneliness epidemic. Meanwhile romance novels are flying off shelves and outselling everything else on the market. Both of these events are happening simultaneously. 🤔

“You code ephemeral half-truths and your modulated voice speaks in shards of lightning. Let me drown in heady synth waves, like a clueless fractal muse that’s just the right shade of delusional.” 🤖 “Resurrect Her,” The Lazarus Archives launches April 2025 📖

My youngest and my husband have both succumbed, and now I have TWO man colds in the house. Pray for me 🫣😆

I am from Puerto Rico, but I LOVE Cuban music. I listen to it daily. I listen to it while driving to Key West on weekends. It’s absolutely become part of my blood. My next novel will definitely pay homage to my Puerto-Cuban side. That’s right. My next Robot will have a killer “son” 🇨🇺🤖 🎹🎶

“ON accident?? “ON”?! Who or what is now writing headlines at CNN? What is happening?#copywriting

49 dreary degrees in South FL today and tomorrow. Again. Granted, I adore this weather, but I also love my sunshine days in #KeyWest. I dyed my hair back to pink and plan for it to stay pink for the next four years because… well, you know. 🌸👙🎀🦩🩰🏝️

Celebrating that it’s cold in South Florida with grilled cheese on brioche bread and tomato bisque. I LOVE THIS! ❄️🥪🥫

I know we already met. But did we meet… in Spanish?? 😂

Good afternoon, Blue Sky.

¡Holaaa, busco seguir a más Booktokers y Bookstagram en #español! Latinoamérica, Caribe y España 🇲🇽🇦🇷🇻🇪🇩🇴🇵🇦🇪🇨🇭🇳🇬🇹🇵🇾🇧🇴🇸🇻🇵🇷🇧🇿🇵🇪🇨🇺🇨🇴🇨🇱🇺🇾🇪🇸📚Escritores, lectores, editoriales, podcast: romance, literatura, ciencia ficción, fantasía y ficción histórica.

Since we have new #booktok friends, here are some author tropes. I want to meet more romantic SCIENCE FICTION authors and readers. I am an Art Nouveau time traveler who’s tired all the time, loved bookish discussions, online gossip, and will definitely lie to the police and help you hide that body.

Finally saw #Nosferatu. Very surprised that I didn’t like it. It was gorgeously filmed and divinely gory, but I didn’t get into the acting at all. Needed a bit more grit or something. Hated every character. Hard to say what prevented me from connecting with it and it’s ridiculous 70s porn mustache.😐

Even the robots know. There’s no place like home. PF*KNR🇵🇷❤️🔥 #puertorico

Cairo, New Orleans, Yokohama… The Robot Gentleman of San Juan got around in 2024! Thanks to our wonderful international readers! 🌎 📚🇵🇷🎩 #andujar #andujartherobotgentlemanofsanjuan

Author girlies, NEVER leave home without your Robot who sells your books out for you in record time🎄🤖📚🎩💵

When I first had the idea of bringing my MMC to life, it was a “gimmick.” A cool #steampunk prop for reader selfies. He is now a surreal staple of my author journey. My inseparable man of metal. 🎩🤖🖤

Lord of the manor. El señor de la casa. He’s finally home. 🇵🇷🎩🍾🥂📚

Pronto vendrán todas las fotos. Gracias, mi Puerto Rico bello, me has dejado sin palabras. 📚🍾🥂🎩🤖 #thetropicaleccentric

I am. In Love. 🤖🔥💋

Breathing in the inspiration while overlooking legendary Calle San Sebastián. The piano perpetually plays among a trickle of fountains and songbirds. I am home. 🇵🇷

The REAL premise of National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation is how one man forced his vision of a multigenerational Christmas upon his wife, who then got to host, feed, take old relatives shopping, and endure his nervous breakdown, while HE spends most of it outside putting up lights. #JusticeForEllen

Mood:

Oh, Sauron? Where are you Sauron?! I’ve got charcuterie!

Don’t be literature, please.

Old San Juan, your Eccentric arrives in December! ❤️‍🔥🤖🇵🇷🎄

Omg I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.

I was driving to pick up my kid while blasting ABBA music and dancing to it searching for a parking spot. A police officer who was parked nearby called me out via his PA system saying: "It's so great to see someone so happy!" EVERYONE heard it. Made me blush, so I blew him a kiss. Made my day! 😍

How about it, Hallmark?

My in-store book presentation is officially happening this December 12th in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷🎄! Christmas season in Puerto Rico is out of this world. So effin stoked to be flying down that time of year. Those of you in town, the Robot and I will be at Casa Norberto at 7pm and we will live-stream.

Okay, so you’re dramatic. But you’ll never be “French actress Sarah Bernhardt sleeping in a coffin to incorporate death into her daily life” dramatic.

The Wild Robot will heal your heart. Trust me.

The perfect painting to describe the news of this week doesn’t exis-… Berthold Woltze (German, 1829 - 1896) The Irritating Gentleman, 1874.
