@karenlreyburn @weare_pf What a gorgeous spot! You’ve got this!

When #zoom is down right before a team meeting so you have to use Google Meetings and it's

@Brian_C_Palmer @instagram Thank you! Yeah it is not fun at all and basically killed a whole work day for me dealing with it. Idk if I’ll ever get it back either.

[Lauren Taylor Shute @intrepid_lit]

Well, my @instagram has officially been hacked. Once they’re in, they’re in; IG gave me a log in link and I was able to briefly get back in, but the hacker kicked me right back out and changed the phone # etc to theirs. Anyone have any solutions?

[Lauren Taylor Shute @intrepid_lit]

Lol and immediately a million bots comment on this with more scams. Is now the time to move off the grid?

[Lauren Taylor Shute @intrepid_lit]

I don’t understand how the hacker can change the email and phone # without verifying it via the original email and phone #…I even changed the password and they still got back in and changed everything again. How can they kick me out but I can’t kick them out?

I was talking to this guy about Dan Flashes and he thought Dan Flashes was a real person and I didn’t correct him.

[Lauren Taylor Shute @intrepid_lit]

[Lauren Taylor Shute @intrepid_lit]

@karenlreyburn Doesn't it just put your writerly heart at ease to see your book as a whole before you dive in? Love that you're getting deep into the flow 🙌

[Karen Reyburn @karenlreyburn]

Really getting into my book writing stride now. Helps IMMENSELY to have a full roadmap thanks to intense series of sessions with @LTSEditorial. Could not recommend more strongly stopping to lay out the whole structure &how each chapter fits. It’s changed my book for the better.

[Lauren Taylor Shute @intrepid_lit]

@rhymeswithbee Interesting! Adding it to the list 👍👍

[Lauren Taylor Shute @intrepid_lit]

@rhymeswithbee I’ve been meaning to try Search Party! I’m deep into rewatching Lost right now, which really doesn’t hold up but I have nothing else going on so

[Lauren Taylor Shute @intrepid_lit]

@karenlreyburn I’m so so sorry to hear this. Sending you all all the good thoughts. I also ordered pizza so take that as you will 😃❤️
