Went into the thrift shop and found a find. This is going to Mad Men up my office at least 30%

Good excuse to post one of my favorite jokes in cartoon history

I am the only person at this Brooklyn coffee shop who was alive when this Steely Dan song came out. Like ten of them weren’t born yet and I am pretty sure the 11th was a vampire already by then

I used to be confuse discrete and discreet all the time, using the former when I meant the latter, etc. I kept seeing other people doing it too. It felt like no one knew.

Then I found the cure. Just write a cozy mystery. The whole damn village is discreet! #writingcommunity

Moving again, and I think it’s finally time to let go of my huge, Y2K era, “History Will Mock Them!!!!” stack of rejection letters. Everything from query letters to poetry journals, kept for 2+ decades out of pure spite! 😂 #writingcommunity #authorlife

Writers are told to "build a platform," as if the solution to being ignored as an author is to become ignored as a content creator instead.
