Huge congratulations to @andiewritesalot 🥳 This is the best news since 2020!

[Andie Burke (she/her) @andiewritesalot]

I’m SO thrilled I can finally scream about this news:

My debut novel—a sapphic fake dating rom-com featuring an ER nurse falling for an airline pilot after an in-flight emergency—is going to be PUBLISHED (AHHH!) by @SMPRomance in Fall 2023! A second book to follow. 🤯

This week I learned that the word garlic comes from the Old English spear (gar) and leek (lik) and let me just say I love spearleek more than ever

Congrats to @annabelledando on the amazing success of her first novel, Windswept, named a @BNBuzz favorite indie book of the year! https://t.co/tc0UdhBJxN

@thelionmachine 100% this. Thanks for speaking up and calling out this BS!

[A. L. Jones @ALJScribbler]

But actually: squad up. I’ll be behind Waffle House with @thelionmachine

[Lev Mirov (semi-hiatus) @thelionmachine]

The person who wrote an article characterizing the excruciating decision 1 in 4 adult Americans make to have no contact with their parents as "a toxic social media self-help trend" can meet me behind the fucking waffle house.

How dare you. How DARE you.
