Having an idea for a good story but no idea how you’d write it is more frustrating than exciting, let’s be honest. #amwriting

@RavensburgerNA - Your contact us form on your US website is not working. Every time I try to submit, I get a "Forbidden" page. This has been for multiple days. We also have an email with a customer service rep who has not responded in days and have tried calling with no response

@Variety @thefirstkatie welp.

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

@McMindyC I mean… we have a brand new washer and if we don’t rinse them off decently prior, stuff will be stuck on there afterward. Maybe we just have a dumb one. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

I would like to gush about Lockwood and Co - if you like fun ghosty things with charismatic teen leads, please check it out on Netflix. It definitely deserves more seasons. Bonus: it lives up to the book series. #LockwoodandCo

[Retropond @Retropondhq]

If the time leading up to Halloween is called Spooky Season, then shouldn't this time leading up to Valentine's Day be called Smoochy Season? We think so. Let's go #SmoochySeason!

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

@thefirstkatie Wait I had no idea they made this book series into a show! I loved the books, will definitely check it out.

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

@kitra If you’re ever in the San Diego area you should try out Batch and Box - those are awesome and so much better than Crumbl IMO.

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

@McMindyC I like the blue and silver. I’m drawn to the silver more because it seems a bit more… relaxing, I guess?

New book review up on the blog now for Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir -- you may remember his other book, The Martian, which was turned into a very entertaining movie. #books #bookreview #reading #projecthailmary #themartian #scifi

Is there a rule that fire alarm batteries die in the middle of the night? Every. Single. Time.

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

@McMindyC Ha yes I have seen this before too! 🤦🏻‍♀️

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

@McMindyC Oh man that sucks!! Wishing her a speedy recovery and that you manage to avoid getting it. Had a lot of family up there get it recently but they have managed not to transfer it to other household members so hoping the same for you!

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

@BenBlacker The Raven Cycle series by Maggie Stiefvater might be one to check out.

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

Student loans, begone, away with you, and do let the door kick you on the way out. (Yes, I finally paid off all of my student loans.)

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

@BenBlacker The Lockwood Co series by Jonathan Stroud and the Arc of a Scythe series by Neal Shusterman come to mind

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

Could the packaging on the Whole Foods brand string cheese be worse? Maybe, but not by much.

[Jen Brown @freshfromjen]

I remember this one episode of New Girl made me laugh so hard years ago. Well, good news, in a rewatch last night, I laughed just as much.

And for my favorite new TV shows of the year...
