Hey there, Dr. Santos! www.nytimes.com/interactive/... #ThePitt #IsaBriones #Broadway #DrSantos

Last night the TV remote didn't work, so I changed the batteries and the TV still didn't work. I ended up touching every part of the TV and jiggling cords and such, then suddenly the TV started working again, and therefore I am having a cookie and some cheesecake today. #Stress #Cookie #Coffee

I read the book on the left by Kirsten King, but then saw the novel on the right at a bookstore and got discombobulated, thinking "was that the title?" #bookcovers #books #reading

After a day of office cleaning and organizing, dessert was necessary. #Writing #Pastry #KidLit #cleaning #Dessert #Coffee

The closet cleaning has moved on to boxes of old cords, including a “This One.” (I have zero memory of why I wrote that.) #cleaning #computer #iphone #confusion

I didn't want @kirstenlking's A GOOD PERSON to end! Sure, sure, there's a dead body, but what the real mystery is how the author NAILED the hypnotic, hilarious, and unhinged non-filtered protagonist's voice. What book have you loved recently? #KirstenKing #Books #Reading #Mystery

Has anyone else noticed that recently lots of TV commercials have phones or alarms ringing in the background?

Last night, Bud the Bear was sitting in a tulip, as one does. But then he had a fall and was embarrassed. To cheer him up, I took him out for for the kind Chinese food featured Maizy Chen's Last Chance. He is happy now. #BudTheBear #MaizyChensLastChance #tulips #ChineseFood #KidLit

Whoa, what a debut! Lisa Lee's American Han chronicles a family's search for the American dream. Both funny and tragic, this book stayed with me long after it was over. What are you reading these days? #LisaLee #AmericanHan #Novel #Book #KoreanAmerican
