Happy Thursday everyone! Interested in a new book about a human wrongfully convicted of crimes against magic and then sent to magical prison where she had to learn to be a badass to survive and then escapes to save the human world? https://t.co/ENrSBePFuN #urbanfantasy#newbook
@PTHylton A year and a half ago you suggested I read Ring and I finally got around to doing it last week, on a beach, surrounded by my closest friends, and I was very scared. So thank you once again for always giving perfect book recommendations.
@MJCaan That's really great. Chris and I have been toiling away at a UF thriller series for about a year now, but it's taking awhile because Covid dropped my productivity to basically zero for most of last year (I pulled my four year old out of daycare). Trying to get back into it!
20 mins trying (and failing) to convince my son that it’s too cold and wet for a walk.
15 mins getting him dressed in his cold weather gear.
10 mins trying to get him out the door (he drags his feet when he’s excited).
3 minutes into the walk:
The song Waterloo raises some interesting questions. Like, what other famous military battles make great romance metaphors? Pyrrhic Victory of Love. Yorktown On My Mind. D-Day of the Heart.
I spend my days dreaming up weird worlds. In some ways they’re better than reality, in many ways they’re worse. Today, the US has a chance to make reality correspond a bit more to our dreams. So if you can vote, vote. And please, for the sake of a better world, vote for Biden.
My son is at that delightful age where he sweetly asks if i can make him a snowball, which i do because i’m a sap, and then he beans me in the face with it and cackles...before immediately asking me for another.
Tired: Media obsessed with PA because of the election.
Wired: Media obsessed with PA because of its underrated natural beauty, sneaky urbanism, weird food culture, and strong communities ties.
The guy at the local pizza shop looks at it tonight and says: “Oh, I love this painting. Its The Screech by Picasso, right?” And I say yep, take my pizza, and run. Thats the right move, right?
So, you know how the back of my credit card is the painting Starry Night by Van Gogh and how every where I use it people comment on it and start convos I don’t know how to finish?
