Something I didn’t expect for my 2025 bingo card: my best friend assigning BD$M roles for my books. 🙃

Things I did in November as an indie author: — Went to Author Nation — Sold Books at Reader Nation — Bought WAY TOO MANY books — Read some stuff — Got my books on shelves — Started a line of book-inspired coffee — Got inspired by EVERYTHING #November #Authorlife #coffee

I got surprise book mail today (as in, I completely forgot I ordered these for me and my bestie 😅). These copies of Bazaar of Bad Dreams as so pretty! #StephenKing

Elisabeth Yoder’s 15-month-old son had a serious bacterial infection, and doctors urged his mother to take an ambulance to treat him 40 minutes away. The bill came to $9,250.

Wow, honored to have The Buffalo Hunter Hunter on NYT’s 100 Notable Books of 2025:

I'm usually not a documentary person, but I went to see The Librarians today. Ten out of ten, highly recommend! If there's a showing close by, you should definitely go see it! #TheLibrariansFilm #BookBans #AuthorLife @thelibrariansfilm.bsky.social

Per a suggestion by my best friend, my headcannon is now that Stephen King has the Shining.

Forbes may call this “Consumer Angst” but it's not. This is full-blown societal rage. This is Americans taking back their power. This is FAFO on a national scale.

I’m flying home from Author Nation and had the worst TSA experience of my life. I understand if you have extra protocols, but you don’t have to be a complete a** to someone in a wheelchair!

#Trump may have immunity from the Supreme Court, but nobody else does — something #ICE agents would do well to remember.

The premiere of Welcome to Derry was on my best friend's birthday. Since he loves Stephen King, I made him a cake themed after the show.

Because we can no longer get proper healthcare if we’re pregnant

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

“The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” which CBS canceled over the summer, won the Emmy for best talk show for the first time. It was the second of two standing ovations that Colbert received at the ceremony. nyti.ms/4n7hh8W

How to feel like Hermione: stay at the library until the closing announcement comes on and they kick you out! 😅 #authorlife #amwriting

I laughed WAY too hard at this. It's too accurate to be this funny.

WTF Texas‽

Does spending WAY TOO much money in a bookstore you weren’t supposed to go to count? I may or may not have done this today. 😅

I just had an unexpected author milestone and am so touched. I was at Michael’s Arts and Crafts and ran into one of my readers. I knew it’d happen eventually, but didn’t expect it this soon. She loved my book and I can’t stop smiling! It made my month, if not my year! 🥰

THIS!

This new anthology based in the world of @stephenking.bsky.social's THE STAND has a killer list of contributors. @kundalinisteve.bsky.social & I are thrilled to have a short story in here—“The Boat Man.” A plague and the fall of civilization are striking a nerve with readers. Gee...I wonder why. 🤔

Denmark to end book tax to encourage people to read

I’ve been introducing my dad to Wednesday on Netflix. I was not expecting him to enjoy it this much. 😅

The best night ❤️🐦‍⬛ Thank you Bucket O Blood Books. Thank you, Chicago. Thank you Christopher Golden. Thank you Brian Keene. Thank you Stephen King. Thank you readers. I love you all.

Similarly, we need to stop calling it pro-life and start referring to it as anti-abortion. Truly being pro-life means being against the death penalty and giving a d*mn when a school sh**ting happens.

This delighted my geeky little heart WAY too much! 💖🥰💖
