I spent a lot of time getting this photo just right for the haiku. I mean, it was fun, but it was a lot of work too.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

If you’re an early Christmas shopper, don’t forget to support small businesses! Like self-published authors! Everyone likes getting books for Christmas, especially books they’ve never heard of that are right up their alley! Also you can gift copies on itch and elsewhere & send them on Xmas Eve 🎄

Yes. Also it means we all get to just take books home and read them and bring them back later and that's pretty awesome too.

Is it ‘My wife and I’ or ‘Me and my wife’? Anyway, we just robbed a liquor store

My wife and I just robbed a liquor store. or A liquor store was just robbed by me and my wife. Either way, congrats! By the way, I'm available for editing services. Rates depend on how much was in the till at the liquor store.

Well this is an odd weather forecast.

I had a great meeting last night to talk through notes on The First Kid on Mars - I'm excited to dive into editing and see how much better I can make this book!

Happy #haikuSaturday!

guys I think I need an illustrator

Everyone should read. Not your typical Fairy story at all. Come for the pretty misleading cover and stay for the political intrigue 🤣🥰

I am shooting my shot. I love writing op-eds. @teenvogue.com was my main outlet, but if there are any others (especially independently ran) that are looking for a contributing writer on race, gender, and the economy, I'd love to work with you. Signed, A Black woman who writes for the public

Season 2 of 24. I don't think I ever recovered.

My 10 year old daughter asked why I'm laughing, so I had to explain this whole thread to her. The good news is, she really likes Allen Ginsberg now.

Day 11: Yeah, time flies. It flies when Eddie fights for the future in BLUE SKIES, it flies when Annie grows up over and over AGAIN in FROM NOW ON, and it flies when you throw a clock out the window in my favorite dad joke. #TimeTravelAuthors

What is a song lyric that changed your life? "No one can find the rewind button, girl, so cradle your head in your hands and breathe"

Convincing you to read my short story by the first sentence. Share yours if you want. "If you're reading this, I'm probably already dead."

"it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive"

If you've read BLUE SKIES, you probably know what moment I'm thinking of.

I hope we were throwing snowballs at them.

Day 9: For BLUE SKIES, I looked up the physics of firing a gun while skydiving. For FROM NOW ON, I researched hypothetical plans for destroying or redirecting an incoming asteroid. For, you know, reasons. #TimeTravelAuthors

This is not a snow day.

I don't condone all of his tactics, but Killmonger had a good noble goal, and he kind of won in the end.

It's nuts. I can feel it everywhere I go in this city. Everybody in every neighborhood is exhausted, traumatized, and on alert, ready to protect our neighbors. I don't go anywhere without a whistle and a fully charged phone these days.

Nuremberg part 2 can't come soon enough.

This made me cry. In a good way. Everywhere I go in Chicago, I can feel neighbors looking out for neighbors. Whistles, signs, honking. There's a tension in the air, but there's resilience and love too. We're all running toward danger together.

I'm setting a goal this weekend to find my kindle. If anyone remembers where I left it, please let me know.

Hang it in the Lou-- Oh.

She does look suspicious...

Wow my answer to this one is different today.

I'm here outside Speaker Johnson’s office because he is starving families and gutting health care to cover up the Epstein Files. Change my mind.

She began by quoting from Carl Sandberg’s famed poem, “Chicago,” which gave the city the ubiquitous nickname “City of Big Shoulders,” pausing to look up as she read the line: “And having answered so I turn once more to those who sneer at this my city, and I give them back the sneer.”

This is the Chicago I see. This is the Chicago I love.

She reads the poem in full.

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

Sometimes I figure it out as I'm writing it. Sometimes it takes longer than that.
