Take the ex returning needing help after a messy breakup from THE EX HEX, the deconstructing hero narrative and subverted fantasy tropes of ASSISTANT TO THE VILLAIN, the reluctant hero with ordinary job saving the world THE UNDERACHIEVER'S GUIDE, and add a healthy dose of spite.
Quick reminder that my pitch sessions for the Louisville Book Festival are still open. Spots are limited and they don't last forever—once they're claimed, that's it. Grab one before someone else does: https://t.co/xu6JBdARcN

I was glutened today. I had the usual reaction but now I’m waiting to see what super secret, bonus symptoms I get this time. Why does my body react differently every time??
I fear people are forgetting Television Without Pity existed. For anyone discovering Supernatural post 2014, there was a whole world of internet recapping that the writers poked fun at. I lived for these recaps.

Why is it, at every restaurant, when you order a sandwich without bread ✨because celiac✨ they assume you don’t want the condiments?? Every. Time.
I want the BBQ sauce that comes with the bbq burger, I just don’t want the bun.
Querying authors and agents, When an agent requests a full via Query Tracker, and I upload my manuscript, do agents expect a message from me, too? I just uploaded the file, not wanting to litter their inbox...or does that seem impersonal? I don't want to be superfluous.

@andiesmithbooks@demimschwartz I really hate that I cannot edit and spell things correctly. Sun & Spines. Amethyst Ink. Still love and appreciate you both!
There are two editors I will forever trust with my stories: @andiesmithbooks at Suns & Spines Editorial and @demimschwartz at Amythest Ink! I cannot say enough about their professionalism and skill, giving both actionable and encouraging feedback. Highly recommend!!!
@newheightshow@tkelce@JasonKelce@Brandon_Borders But make it fun! Watch an adaption instead: She's the Man (Twelfth Night), 10 Things I Hate About You (Taming of the Shrew), or Warm Bodies (Romeo and Juliet).
Amethyst Ink Update! I only have two spots left, both in September. If you would like a full manuscript critique or developmental editing this year, now is the time to reach out. Once these spots fill, I’ll be closed until December to book for 2027. 💜💎
Does everyone still have the credit card they signed up for during college spring break for the t-shirt?
I just realized I still have the credit card I signed up for 22 years ago, for this MTV PCB Spring Break t-shirt. No idea where this t-shirt is though.
A lot of people gleefully cheering this on, but they won’t stop at child support. They’re going to follow this same model to start doing the same to those with student loan and medical debt next. Bet.
I'm about to be the most insufferable person you've ever met: had a life insurance exam this morning. I always assumed I was barely 5' 8" but was told I'm 5' 8.5". That half inch is about to become my whole personality! lol
Apparently sleeping in an awkward position in your late 20s to accommodate a puppy, then sleeping the same position for all your 30s and early 40s, can mess with your back muscles. But look at her! As PT said today, we’re got going to change the dog so we need to change you. lol
