I wrote a Barrington-Stoke-inspired book for one of my daughters, who loves Jenny Oldfield.
Yeah. She won't read it. She thinks it's weird to read a book that I wrote specifically for her since she's run out of JO books. #WriterParentProblems
Which was bliss+completely fulfilled me as a person.
JK!
Which was a total shitshow of sexism+exploited labor. #WriterMom #WriterParentProblems b/c now I had a p/t teaching job where I was underpaid+three f/t jobs: writing, motherhood+running a household which were all unpaid.
As a kid, #Halloween was a creativity fest. But as a writer/teacher/mom? I have completely given up all pretense of creativity+fallen into the jaws of capitalism with store bought costumes😢

Sorry I've been quiet. Kiddo's been a handful lately.

My contract is in and it still feels like an absolute dream! Except where I can’t even get past reading HarperCollins Publishers without the baby waking up 🙃
Nothing worse than opening an editor's email+you're exploding w/ ideas+having to shut it down b/c the kid woke up+it's time to make breakfast+get to school. You'll never get those initial thoughts back, when your mind is freshly contemplating that feedback #WriterParentProblems.
#NaNoWriMo 672 words yesterday (#WriterParentProblems) but 1949 today. #Pantsing allows good ideas+slower writing makes better prose tho takes twice as long

Ah, the joys of writing a steamy scene and having a kid get out of bed and interrupt the flow #writerparentproblems

9 yr-old: Mom I really want a dog.
Me: I like dogs, but I’m the one home all day+I don’t want to take care of a dog when you+Daddy are the dog lovers.
Kid: can you multitask? You could play with the dog while you write at your treadmill desk.

Braved the #airpocalypse+am at a secret bar in SF for the @CliterarySalon reading.
Just got in 259 words on this no school day for #NaNoWriMo.

#ClimateChangeIsReal+causing drought/fires/disaster+people dying+threatens our planet’s survival. It’s also jacking up my #NaNoWriMo. Bay Area schools closed for dangerous air=no writing.

448 words 1st thing today while kid playing w/ hamster on holiday w/ no childcare+ALL OUTDOOR CAMPS CANCELLED B/C WILDFIRE SMOKE 😭🌲#NaNoWriMo #WriterMom #WriterParentProblems #AnyWordCountIsGood #GetItDone #NaNoWriMo18 @MarcieRendon @HYoungwriter @AuLevinsMorales @YoSoy_Amanda
#WriterParentProblems: you gotta write a note for your kid's school but all your scratch paper is page proofs from your #FeministHeist novels. The blank page you grab says "WE GOT THE MONEY BACK, MOTHERFUCKERS" on the back+you just don't think you can write your school note on it
So here I am in NYC on the day my 3rd novel comes out, getting a first place award for my 2nd novel, picking craisins out of a kale salad for my daughter who also is my date for the evening. #WriterMom #WriterParentProblems #LifeIsGood #IPPYawards
