Tomorrow my academic alter-ego gets to talk about HOLD and it's going to be a blast. Seriously, I am in embarrassingly good company.

[Rachel D. Leigh @RDavidsonLeigh]

Folks, we've found the tweet that's always 100% accurate.

In a moment of frustration, high school student Luke Aday throws his backpack against a wall—and it never lands. Luke has just discovered that he can stop time in @RDavidsonLeigh's HOLD. 🕰️ #HalloweenFlashSale

[Rachel D. Leigh @RDavidsonLeigh]

@Naomi_Salmon Thanks, friend. I figured Hold might be a bit too mature/fantasy-based for her tastes. I'll think about more recs though. I never realized how many of my younger YA faves aren't based in realism!

[Rachel D. Leigh @RDavidsonLeigh]

Want to share some recs for my friend? I know y'all have read/written some excellent options!

[Naomi Salmon (they/she) @Naomi_Salmon]

Hi friends! Do any of you have any recommendations for queer YA fiction that might appeal to an awesome turning-13-year-old? She's not a big fan of sci-fi or fantasy, which is why I keep coming up short....

[Rachel D. Leigh @RDavidsonLeigh]

@cblee_cblee I am. Work stuff has taken me away from creative writing, and I miss you all very much.

[Rachel D. Leigh @RDavidsonLeigh]

@cblee_cblee Dude! I just saw you in the Claudia Kishi Club, and it was incredible! Huge congrats! You're a movie star!!!

[Interlude Press @InterludePress]

Thanks @BookRiot for including @cblee_cblee's NOT YOUR SIDEKICK in this great list! Readers, don't forget that the series continues with NOT YOUR VILLAIN and NOT YOUR BACKUP

[Rachel D. Leigh @RDavidsonLeigh]

It was so good to have you! The students loved you and your writing.

It requires moral courage to stand up to this President.

There's no doubt that he is vindictive — his threatening tweet about me today is proof positive.

But we all have an obligation to do the right thing.

Moral courage is rare. But it is never more essential than now.

@dontcallmestigs As a fellow bi anxiety ball, I feel too seen.

I want to share my love for Red, White & Royal Blue, but it's got me feeling like the guy who walks out of Starbucks raving about his Frappuccino.

[Rachel D. Leigh @RDavidsonLeigh]

@tonks_42 I mean, the cultural reference points include The West Wing, Hamilton, Harry Potter, TGBBO, AO3, & all of queer history. I'm feeling hella basic and DELIGHTED.

[Rachel D. Leigh @RDavidsonLeigh]

I know I'm late to the party y'all, but this shit is GOOD.
