I’m not gonna be on here much anymore, for a variety of reasons. You can find me on the blue app @/alexborbolla and the photo app @/editoralexborbolla

Is this anything? Just trying to have a little hope.

@BOENYC I posted my sticker to my neighborhood subreddit and inspired no less than five people to go out and vote today!

Building my entire voting plan for this year around the fact that I once voted early on Halloween and got a special Halloween-themed “I voted” sticker. See you at the polls October 31st 🎃 #Harris_Walz2024

I’m also expecting 11 more revisions from my authors this year, so my priority will be those. I’m trying to be as on top of things as possible, but protecting my free time is a priority & I only have so many hours in a day. I appreciate everyone’s understanding & patience!

Submission update:
-I’ve received 455 subs this year so far.
-I have 119 left to review.
-With the exception of a handful I want to read in full, I am caught up through July.
-I batch read & then batch respond, so I have ~50 un-fun emails I need to send.

I regret to inform y'all this Taylor Swift book is not going to shift anything in publishing. Even if the book hits the NYT list, which I think is highly unlikely since it's being sold exclusively from Target and is more pictures than it is words, that's not going to scare execs.

@svershbow The coffee shop in my building had a lovely wood deck bordered by flower planters, & it was such a nice view from my window & when leaving the building. Now I just see cars 🥲

@deandraswriting As a former Floridian, I feel you 😂

My heart goes out those who are sad to see summer end, but giiiiiiirl my seasonal depression is LIFTING! My level of misery drops with each drop in temp! My happiness grows with the number of layers I have to wear! I gladly wave goodbye to the sun, who is nothing but mean to me!

"You are Latina enough," I whisper to myself, running my hands along every Goya can in the grocery store.

@RickSteves Sending all the good vibes, Rick! Wishing you good health and happy trails ahead
