Releasing several memos and proposals, DeSantis is attempting to change Florida’s education system, erase history’s hard truths and suppress the voices of those who don’t conform to his traditional, white American values

"Summoning all my energy, I push the air from my lungs, forcing it over the golf ball wedged in my throat." Megan McIntyre's @koala1603 "Strangled" bringing 🔥 in CNF on what we may fight to pull from our bodies. ECSTATIC to see what @longleafreview's Harvest is calling forth.😍

For my mental health, I am removing all social media from my mobile devices, but for safety and professional purposes, I’m still checking in intermittentlyon my computer. A TL;DR post is on my personal Facebook… https://t.co/x7ItJljCUf

Breaking my long stints of Twitter silence to retweet this beauty. It is such an honor and pleasure to work with such talented writers, editors, and readers. In a world with such darkness, Longleaf brings the light in more ways than one. 💓

Been told on multiple occasions that getting up in the morning, making myself a cup of coffee, and sitting down to write is a routine I need to integrate into my life...I woke at 6 am, it is now 7:16 am, and I’m no closer to getting out of bed. #whatismotivation? #notinthisbody

[Paige Perez @_TOTHELIBRARY]

@shameless_sass NO, THANK YOU, ELIZA #elplaysmobilegames #sassiscrass #imaboutit #muchentertained

[ANNE LAMOTT @ANNELAMOTT]

I started a new piece. It’s total shit. Talk about beating a dead horse. Obviously the well has run dry. What’s the point of sticking w/ it, seeing if this story maybe knows how to get itself written? There’s no point; I suck, it sucks. Wait! There’s one passage I sort of like...

@mooseyimhome @alittleredfinch Thanks for the words of encouragement, you lovely ladies. You both are definitely part of inspiration 😊 ❤️

Carved out a little time to write, even though I don’t really have it. But that little time may have given me a voice that I’m excited to move forward with. #day2withoutincident #writingmotivation #creativenonfiction #CNF #tryinganewthing

[Paige Perez @_TOTHELIBRARY]

Got some critical writing done yesterday thanks to a good talk with a colleague. Don’t be afraid to open up about your writing struggles. Often a new perspective is just what you need. #day3withoutincident #thisisgradschool #academicwriting #tryingsomethingnew
