If you loved the #DungeonsAndDragonsMovie as much as I did, I have some book recs for you!

The best part of working with fellow nerds is doing things like hiding video game terms in our documentation and leaving a comment on the "fetch information" instruction that reads "i.e., make fetch happen."

@sue_ferrara This is why the pomodoro method is so helpful: it sparks the competition side of your brain.

@ADHD_Cyborg @mykola Apologies both if anyone's already mentioned it (I tried to look) but you can often repeat by competing against yourself, if that's safe and motivating for you. You may hit a time or quality ceiling eventually, but this approach allows for some potential re-use for some. ☺️

8:30 PM Monday: We have confirmed two more tornadoes in NJ from 4/1. One in Crosswicks and another one from Allentown to Cream Ridge. Both rated a preliminary EF-1 with estimated winds to 90 mph. More details available on Tuesday. #pawx #njwx #dewx #mdwx

@Panediting Ok but like I just finished Gideon the Ninth and I loved 99% of it and it was SO SO GOOD and then the ending hit me like the construct hit Isaac Tettares 😭😭😭
Also, Moira Quirk needs awards for her narration.

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

@sue_ferrara There's an "official" online version of this my friends and I have often used for this purpose. Fun idea to do it for book characters!

Since I'm on a Gideon the Ninth kick...

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

@A_MQ @pmrdms Thank you so much. I know I say it a lot, but I'm so, SO thankful I did the MATCEL program with you. I love my job and I wouldn't be able to do half of it without the skills I learned in class.

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

Facebook reminded me recently that it's been 5 years since I got my postgrad degree. Saw that notification as I was deep in a work project requiring all the skills and information I learned in that course. It's so rewarding to be able to work in my field doing what I love.

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

And, since I never shut up about how awesome the program was, I highly recommend it to anyone interested in technical communications and e-learning.

I know I'm always tagging them, but I really do need to thank @A_MQ, @pmrdms, and Yvonne Cleary yet again. Sometimes I still find myself in that student mindset when I do something cool at work and think "I have to show my professors this! They'll love it!" 😁

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

TMW you successfully learn something new at work.

Hello. 🙋🏼‍♀️
Just wanted to pop in and say that I am home, I am okay, and I am lucky for all kinds of reasons.
Thank you for your kind words and your support and love. I have some recovering to do but I should be back to being my badass and mouthy self soon enough.
More soon. ♥️

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

@sue_ferrara Hey now, if you're accusing me of pulling something like this...

... you're not wrong. 😂

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

@sue_ferrara Oof, would that my manuscript were finished.

Sometimes the solution to a work problem involves Google, several hours of tenacity, and a rubber duck. #codinglife

TMW you and your teammates get an emergency project and turn it around in an hour and a half. 🔥😎

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

@SpookyEvilOne @HillaryMonahan I was *so pissed* about Eddings. I loved The Belgariad, The Malloreon, and the two prequel novels, and still do love them in a way, but they're forever tainted for me.

[Katy Hume @kjsbhume]

My latest blog post for B&N Reads! I had SO much fun with this one! Authors, I hope you enjoy your LEGO pairings. 😊
