I noticed an ad on the CNN website that was advertising the bookseller Moby the Great. They picked my book, A Count by Chance, to feature in their advertisement. The first novel that I published under my Duna Books label. Thanks Moby! That's really Great! #DunaBooks #MobytheGreat a.co/d/3AghN5J

I noticed this ad on CNN. Moby the Great is advertising my Duna Books translation, "A Count by Chance". They must like the cover I designed. Thanks #MobytheGreat!

The Art of Belonging Nowhere is looking for friends, who would be happy to review it and spread the word of its existence. Why not you? Message me if you'd like me to send you a copy. www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...

I am thrilled to announce the publication of my first Hungarian language short story in Napút. May more to come. With many thanks to the editor, György Szondi. #Hungarianliterature #próza www.naputonline.hu/2025/08/19/h...

I am tickled with the placement of The Art of Belonging Nowhere among Dostoevsky, Bulgakov, and Nabokov. That alone was worth it. bit.ly/TheArtofBelo... #TheArtofBelongingNowhere #debutnovel #immigrationstory

I have repainted the cover. So now those of you who own the first printing have proof of being my first supporters. The Hungarian translation is coming in a few weeks. Fingers crossed. bit.ly/TheArtofBelo... #theartofbelongingnowhere #firstnovel #cultureshock #immigrationstory #displacement

Here are the review copies for local readers. Message me if you'd like to be a reviewer. bit.ly/TheArtofBelo...

Good morning! Here is a sweet snippet for you from #TheArtofBelongingNowhere. A scene with our protagonist Irina Zubova and her new friend Sam Mendoza on Pirates Cove Beach. bit.ly/TheArtofBelo... #newreleasebooks #immigrationstory

The irony of the placement of her story would not be lost on the Soviet art curator Irina Zubova. Now if she could only get readers to engage with it. bit.ly/TheArtofBelo... #Savistsky #Sovieteducated #immigrantstory #newrelease #firstnovel #TheArtofBelongingNowhere

Look at her now. Irina Zubova, posing between Dostoevsky and Bulgakov like she belongs there. Six months ago she was face-down on a bathroom floor with a bottle. Now here she is on Amazon's virtual shelf, posing with the masters like some literary debutante. bit.ly/TheArtofBelo... #immigrationnovel

Yes, I have it here in hard copy. Such a beautiful read, if I may say so myself. bit.ly/TheArtofBelo... #newrelease #firstnovel #immigrationtoday #recovery #Russia #Uzbekistan #WorcesterArtMuseum #modernart #artcurator #beautifulbook

A free sample of my debut novel, The Art of Belonging Nowhere, is available for your reading pleasure. Dedicated to my friends. #displacement #immigrantstory #recovery #Uzbekistan #Russia #Worcester #WorcesterArtMuseum #ICEcustody bit.ly/TheArtofBelo...

Check out my first novel. I have written it for my friends. The Art of Belonging Nowhere a.co/d/dMm9nY2 #firstnovel #newrelease #ICE #immigrantexperience

Been off here, buried in my first novel. The book is called "The Art of Belonging Nowhere." It's about a 44-year-old Russian curator, recovery, friendship, and what it means to finally show up in your own life. Messy and honest in all the ways that matter. Who wants to read it when it's ready?

I am so excited about the publication of my first two Duna Books, Hungarian classics in translation. They look wonderful and read so well. I am tickled that I got myself into this. I think I'll run with it. #DunaBooks #Hungarian #HungarianLiterature #VictorianRomance

I saw a kite in the trees today. Another day when awful things happened—the dismantling of public education, war on the Palestinians, deportations. But this vision came to me, and I don't feel either unhappy or upset. I just know we cannot afford to miss beautiful things in the present. #kidlitart

Just published my first literary translation—Albert Pálffy's witty 1885 Hungarian novel "A Count by Chance"! 📚 Think 19th century rom-com with telephones! This launches my Duna Books imprint, dedicated to bringing Hungarian classics to American readers. a.co/d/aKSrQ33 #HungarianLiterature #DunaBooks

According to Philip Bump in the Washington Post (February 6), the #NSF has been flagging grant applications with banned words in their title and/or abstract. To commemorate this invasion of academic freedom, I created this poster. #Art ists, do it in your style. #diiys_bannedwords #academicfreedom

I captured this moment from my car window one morning—a fleeting scene, one that stayed with me. I painted over it, layering six washes of watercolor and light to share the awe it felt. So here it is: *Morning Commute.* May you experience it this way. #BlueSkyforBsky #MorningCommute #art

I deconstructed a *Curcuma aromatica* in watercolor, recolored and rearranged it into a tic-tac-toe composition, then painted over it with two layers of light. A game of balance, contrast, and reveal. Share your invention of the day with me. #syiod #art #kidlitart #peaceonmymind #pureenjoyment

Cheer me on, please. With all the bleak news, my little streak of light is that The Coneflower was boosted to #28 in Children's Books in Botany. a.co/d/3iAu76x #ChildrensBook #ChildrensbooksBotany #LifeofaFlower #Coneflower

You are an illustrator when the working cover comes after the beat sheet. "Trapped between the life she left behind and the new one she’s fighting to create, a woman on the margins discovers that freedom comes with choices—and consequences—she never intended." #pitch #undocumented #midlifecrisis

"Hey, illustrators! Here’s a tip that’s been helpful for me: test and catalog your brushes to figure out your favorites. I have over a thousand brushes, but I tend to use the same dozen. This simple practice makes creating less confusing!" #illustrator #kidlitart #AdobeFresco #Capturebrushes #art

I woke up this morning thinking of compelling characters, and one of the first ones that filtered into my head were Senhor Jose. When I opened the book, I noticed the forgotten signature of Jose Saramago from 2002 in Boston where we met. #readthis #charactersforlife #Saramago #savesomeone #NobelLit
