@chuckwendig.bsky.social uhhhh…is this the start?

Kizu was strong and *fast* when we lived in Houston! We used to play fetch up the hill in the bayou pretty much every day, and she would sprint up the hill after her ball to exhaustion!

Throwback Friday to 2018, when our dog Kizu (my pfp) treed a squirrel in Buffalo Bayou Park in Houston, and. the squirrel discovered there was a hawk in the tree! Photo by @risawolf.bsky.social

Please help out if you can.

Hi, I’m fire ants.

Does bluesky think I’m a bot? It’s really hard to find my posts/replies! Granted, I have like six actual posts, but I reply to people! Not often, but still!

Paging @damin.bsky.social. Would Damin please pick up the white courtesy phone?

Oh no! Amazon MGM studios declined to renew my comfort show! 😭

My specialty area in assistive technology is rare conditions. For twelve years I've been writing clinical guidance for SLP, OT, and others. Each condition has detailed info in general I think I'm almost done. Check it out. Tell me if it's useful and what to do lol. There are 5,218 citations

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

The answer Sen, Shaheen is that since America elected the Black man to be president, the official position of the Republican Party is “not to work together with Democrats to address the problems that are facing this country.”

Whatever happens after this, y’all, we must all agree to do whatever non-felony things we can to make Schumer miserable until he resigns.

i think Senator Lander has a ring to it

Oh look Schumer arranged it so that none of the people who voted for his cave are up for re-election in 2026

PRIMARY THEM ALL May they know no emotional peace for the people they are condemning

I cannot support this deal, which fails to address the needs of 20 million Americans facing skyrocketing health care costs.

This is a great short story—set in Pittsburgh!

I made some air-fried yeast donuts with maple glaze. They’re *amazing*…and a little weird!

Y’all! (I lived in Houston and Philly, I’m allowed to say y’all) I. AM. SHOOK. Today I found out that Limp Bizkit has sold more albums than Nine Inch Nails. I am an OG Limp Bizkit hater! I have hated them since I saw them open for Faith No More at the Trocadero in Philly in 1998. NIN forever!

This is a beautiful edition, if you don’t own a physical copy, it’s well worth picking up!

I'm so thrilled that my story is available for free now! Also, that is a STONKINGLY amazing illustration of my opossum MC and I couldn't be happier.

If you see this, quote the energy you bring to Bluesky.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

I keep meaning to upload a profile pic, then I keep not doing it. One day soon, I swear!

At my new Allergist’s, waiting on the doc. Luckily I have @wiswell.bsky.social ‘s latest novel to pass the time!

@risawolf.bsky.social this is relevant to your interests!

Oh yay, they announced it!!

this was my favorite sign from today

Gotta love Philly 🤣🔥….Go Birds 🦅 F Trump! Via @phillychitchat.bsky.social

On the Ben Franklin Parkway, they keep coming and coming

America’s first capitol is the REAL capitol today.

HOLY SHIT. That's one of every 15 residents of the city, btw.

Philly showin' up today

Argh! “Someone You Can Build a Nest In” is in fact the actual title, lol.

Holy shit! Congrats to @wiswell.bsky.social for winning the Best Novel Nebula for Someone You Can Build a Best In!!! Well deserved!

Me checking Bluesky after work:

Hey #BookSky anyone know if Bigolas Dickolas made the jump from that other site?

@johnrogers.bsky.social I see your cameo in Leverage Redemption Season 3 Episode 3!

Fun fact: @aptshadow.bsky.social taught me about book lungs at the same time my spouse @risawolf.bsky.social was writing a short story involving book lungs, and then I read @benaaronovitch.bsky.social ‘s Peter Grant mistakenly remembering book lungs as box lungs!

This is a phenomenal novel—I read it because my spouse was cackling with laughter while reading it…they *literally* fell out of bed! It’s a phenomenal novel—fantasy horror from the monster’s perspective, which is the juxtaposition that creates some really hilarious moments. Put it on your list!

Over 20 hours and counting! He’s like the Ener-Booker bunny!

Technically yesterday, I wrote an 1800+ word outline for a novella. I don’t even believe in outlines! Ok, yes, I know they exist—I just mean I don’t normally write with them. I also don’t normally get paid for writing. We’ll see if this changes that…eventually. It’s just an outline, geeze!

Today looks like a lot. Maybe not slowing down soon. Do what you can. Among other things... saving the world, one book sale at a time. And just like that. I'm opening to queries. Updated guidelines here: maassagency.com/jennifer-jac... Plus happy pi day to all who celebrate. What are you making?

To those of you cooking for the first time, or even relatively experienced cooks trying a new recipe: Frozen meat does not thaw in the fridge in 24 hours. Onions do not caramelize in 5, 10, or even 20 minutes. You are not insane. Your recipe is LYING to you.

You are likely going to have trouble writing as the news keeps rolling in. I have a free class for you about how to navigate wanting to write in the face of all of this bullshit.

You can honor David Lynch by wearing a mask in public. He had to begin isolating at home because he has emphysema- a COVID infection would likely be fatal- and no one wears masks anymore. Millions of others like him (including myself) were left behind when COVID measures were abandoned

But doesn’t John McClane’s lighter run out of fluid? That’s the opposite of Hanukkah!

How’d it go!?
