If anyone wants to @ me every few days asking how my novel is going to guilt me into actually writing, I’d be appreciative.

@PurdueNorthwest If this happened at my commencement ceremony, I would have been devastated and ashamed of my school. Do not continue to give this racist a platform and microphone. There are plenty who can get through a speech without unplanned/accidental/off-the-cuff bigotry.

Getting rid of affirmative action isn't going to make things less racist, folks. I disagree with how some schools have handled Asian student admission, but this won't fix anything.

@iconawrites @SketchesbyBoze This specifically is one of my favorite things. What are any of us but fast fish and loose fish too????

@silviamg This was such a lovely read! The way the story feels both naively optimistic and eerily sinister at the same time is just *chefs kiss*

sorry but sometimes sentences are just zestier when they’re intentionally grammatically incorrect

My husband suggested I take a break from true crime while I work through some anxiety.

But I'm not anxious about being murdered. I mean, he's the person most likely to kill me, and I'm not scared of him.

I have a bad habit of empathizing with characters who are supposed to be unrelatable & unlikeable.

Writing is more than just typing. Staring into space as you finalise your plot is part of writing. Reading is part of writing. Research is part of writing. Don’t let our toxic productivity culture convince you you are not producing unless you are typing.

Why is anyone wasting their breath arguing that a "mermaid shouldn't be black" when instead you could be talking about the time Hans Christian Andersen showed up as a guest at Charles Dickens's house and absolutely ruined his life for a month straight

@christer28 But I also wrote my whole wedding ceremony, so that part was an intentional choice.

[Rebecca is a goldfish @beccaplease_]

@christer28 I walked down the aisle with my dad, and he "gave me away." But that was because the only reason I even had a wedding was because he cried when I told him we didn't plan on having one. So 🤷🏻‍♀️
