@bridgettmorigna I have found your writing mojo wandering around the Target Qtip aisle. His name is Bob. Bob says to text if you want him to pick up some pens or a journal. He has a coupon.

#OnThisDay in 2012, we found three black kittens behind the #EdgarAllanPoe Shrine at the @PoeMuseum #RVA. The female went home with one of the tour guides, but the brothers, Edgar and Pluto, still live at the museum, where they greet our guests. #PoeMuseumCats #CatsofTwitter

Fiction is truth of the ❤️.

[Kelly Yang @kellyyanghk]

Had dinner w someone last night who said she won’t read FRONT DESK bc it’s a novel and she “doesn’t do fiction.” 🙄 Dare I say there is more truth in fiction sometimes than a lot of nonfiction? #mytwocents

@MLThorne1 I heard this today while I was at IKEA and it’s been in my head ever since! 🌈

Heroes can be small: A young squirrel takes on her papa’s legacy to banish an evil weather spirit before it drowns her home and Desertkind. Her migrant lizard friend joins her, hoping to earn a place in desert society. And friends always face the storm together. #Pit2Pub #MG #F

Ever wonder where that big stone with #EdgarAllanPoe's name on it outside the @PoeMuseum #RVA's front door came from? Here is the story from an early 1970s Richmond newspaper.

It's good luck for a #BlackCat to cross your path while you walk under a ladder on #FridayThe13th at the @PoeMuseum in#RVA. #EdgarAllanPoe #CatsOfTwitter

My reward for getting up before my second alarm was to hear it thumping on my bathroom sink for 10 minutes while I was in the shower. Live out your purpose, Little Alarm. My husband can’t hear you, anyway.

It took me three years, but I finally put together a shadow box of my wedding reception (with a board game theme). I ❤️the meeples (and my hubby, of course!). #amgaming #amcrafting
