Introducing Writing Prompt Wednesday!
This week’s prompt: Write about longing. What does your narrator long for? In what ways do they feel the longing?
DM is with ideas for future prompts

[Katie Bowman @just_katieb]

The idea is to force individuals to purchase ebooks to increase sales but the embargo discriminates against libraries as well as the individuals who cannot purchase the ebooks. #eBooksForAll

[Katie Bowman @just_katieb]

The @MacmillanUSA embargo attacks the core purpose of libraries. To large libraries such as @supportspl, going 2 months with only a single copy of an ebook to offer patrons is an insane demand.

[American Library Association @ALALibrary]

We are just days away from the start of the @MacmillanUSA eBook embargo for #libraries. Sign the #eBooksForAll petition to let them know that access to eBooks should not be delayed or denied. https://t.co/EwSHxII5VT

Don't get me wrong, I do
like the flag, how it undulates in the wind
like water, elemental, and best when it's humbled,
brought to its knees, clung to by someone
who has lost everything, when it's not a weapon

Academic analysis of Beowulf's monsters:

- Grendel = The Grinch

- Grendel's mom = You killed her son, what did you expect her to do? Be happy?

- Dragon = Don't Touch My Stuff™

Thanks, I want my A now pls

Looks like I joined Twitter just in time to celebrate #SeptWomenPoets!

So today I just gotta say that Life On Mars, by Tracy K Smith, is one of those books that gets me #shook. Like, take a look at her poem, "Willed in Autumn." It's some straight up brilliance you guys.

Last night I was in a loo and a woman entered the only other stall crying. I did the awkward shout over and asked if she was ok or wanted to talk about it, or needed a hug
