Flu shot ✅ My own little act of rebellion

I’m two days into this vacation and just now realizing I’m still in the same time zone.

OK, Bunny was unhinged. I was unable to put it down. Cannot wait for Mona Awad’s sequel.

Just some light beach reading.

Cheers! Just learned that one of my favorite pieces has been accepted to a literary journal. I’m so glad it’s found a home! #flashfiction #writing

📚 Last book you read: Maggie; or, A man and woman walk into a bar 📚 Current read: Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil 📚 Last book added to your tbr: Bunny 📚 Next Read: The Missing Half, The Culture Code, and The Seven Year Slip 😉 #bookish

Yee’s debut book was lovely, thought-provoking, meandering in all the right ways, and a master class in interiority. Loved every second of it. Placing it on my five-star, best reads of 2025. @emergencychampagne.bsky.social #bookreview #fivestars

July reading wrap-up: Where You’re Planted – sweet and spicy (4⭐) One Golden Summer – spicy and tear-jerking (5⭐) My Friends – OMG, how have I not read Backman yet? (5⭐) Atmosphere – Loved the history and science, may or may not have cried at the end (4⭐)

Found a Poe’s Tavern in Charleston, and it doesn’t have near the goth vibes I had in high school. 💀 #edgarallenpoe #literaryroadtrip

Discovered a major timeline issue I couldn’t ignore, so of course I stayed up until midnight trying to make it work 🤦‍♀️

After a driven young architect uses an AI-powered dating app to identify her true love, she instead falls for a skeptical computational biologist, forcing her to decide between love's unpredictable chemistry or data-driven matchmaking. #querying

Happy Mothers Day to the woman who sparked my love of reading and history. ❤️

I'm entering this competition and you can too! wn.nr/ErE9Xc9

Supported both #indiebookstores and my local library yesterday ❤️ @novelmemphis.bsky.social #FriendsoftheLibrary

I went to a coffee shop this morning to write and there is a SLOTH at the coffee shop, and now I can’t focus at all.

A unique experience I wasn’t expecting in #RevPit is facing rejection within a community that is going through the same thing while lifting each other up. 😭 So thankful for the editors and writers who make themselves available and vulnerable.

Hi! RevPit is the Revise and Resub event where writers submit a full manuscript to try to win a dev edit, although it’s mainly about the games and support from the community and the professional editors. It’s my fave event of the writing calendar! www.reviseresub.com

When you bring the mouse to Chicago but forget your laptop. 😭

Tapping into #revpit community to find AR writers interested in joining a #critiquegroup (and beta readers for those with commitment issues!) 👋🏻 I’m Elizabeth. I have a Southern urban romcom that includes STEM elements.

If you know me, you won’t be surprised that my first job was a dream - a library page in my South Jackson community. #fundlibraries #imls #libraries

Me: I give in-depth, thoughtful book reviews. My cat:

Second #WIP and totally different genre: When a battle-hardened general’s daughter is forced to marry a suspected traitor, she must uncover the truth before the Ottomans invade—or risk losing her love, her country, or both.

And all of a sudden, I feel so much better about that “reply all” mishap at work.

This weekend’s plans

He can’t get out of here fast enough. Martin struggles to say something witty, but he simply stands and brushes down his coat before taking his leave, all without saying a word. I’m disappointed at the lost time I spent shaving my legs earlier tonight and using the expensive perfume.

Made it to Friday! I’ve been using my weekend time for writing and editing my book. Night are for class. 😅

Tonight at 7pm US ET, @carlzimmer.com will talk about his new book AIR-BORNE as part of the Health Storytelling series at the Center for the Study of Human Health at Emory University and the Atlanta Science Festival. RSVP and join me at lnkd.in/eFnfmBAH

I know I’m late to the party, but public libraries have some of the best video content on social (including the goat LoC, who’s on everything BUT Bluesky!)

Hi #RevPit community! My MS is a Southern STEM-focused rom-com. ❤️ After an architect uses an AI-powered dating app to identify her true love, she falls for a skeptical computational biologist, forcing her to decide between love's unpredictable chemistry or data-driven matchmaking.

I went to a book event yesterday at @novelmemphis.bsky.social, where I told my companion I needed to find @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social new book. A woman overheard me, turned around, and said “it’s not coming out until tomorrow.” And this is why I love the book community. 😂

Submitted my STEM rom-com to #RevPit this weekend. Celebrated today by book shopping. It’s research!

Katherine Center is someone I love to read when the world is ending (perfect timing, Katherine). Thrilled to get an eARC of her latest, The Love Haters. It's fun, cozy, a little unbelievable (in a good way), & made me snort a few times.

Favorite book(s) of the year so far? We're almost a quarter through 2025, and I've read 13 books. Only two have really hit me, though. Martyr! and a science fiction beta book that I can't wait to see out in the wild.

Gah. I didn’t expect the opening scene from The Great Unknown to hit me so hard. 😭

You know that moment Meg Ryan has in the mayo commercial? That’s how I feel when I read a well-polished, engaging book as a beta reader. Yes! Yes! Yes!

Can’t wait to read #amostpuzzlingmurder! Book launches on June 10 so clear your TBR. 📚

It's AMA week! Stop by Wednesday at 7:00 P.M. EST for a live convo with some of our agents. Come with questions, leave with answers. See you then! AMA Link 👉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt8y... #AMA #Askanagent #writesky #booksky

I totally get Pamela Anderson. I’m 46 and being told I need butt facials, all-body deodorant and to shave my face.

Was not prepared to love Martyr! as much as I have. I’m finding myself reading the last quarter slowly because I don’t want it to end.

New year, new words! Finishing up my beats map and excited to get started! 🧛‍♂️

My copy of @ponderreview.bsky.social came yesterday but I forgot to check the mail. Soooo, it officially arrived on Christmas! #christmasmiracle

Call me a grinch, but I’m stoked about Nosferatu this holiday.

Sent out the latest draft of The True Love Algorithm to beta readers this week. Any advice on how to spend the next several weeks sane?

Not a fan of James, but loved Erasure. Wondering if I should reread James. What am I missing?
