🚨On Thursday, Tennessee’s rightwing supermajority carried out the racist, anti-democratic expulsion of two Black lawmakers. As Rep. @brotherjones_ says here, the fight for our democracy is happening in state legislatures. That’s where we have to focus.

@StevenJayGabe Thanks for the great and informative review, Steve! I'm working on a new novel (set in the late 90s this time) but it's too far from finished to say more. Glad you enjoyed ASTRID and thanks for the support!

Scenes like this do still matter! (Thanks Steve)

As soon as he left the White House, Saudi Arabia handed Jared Kushner $2,000,000,000. That's $2 billion. With a "b."

"Astrid Sees All is a charming Bildungsroman, an exploration of the shining egotism of youth and its maturing into reflective adulthood. Standiford makes you want to be there: roaches, martinis and all.” Thank you, @WomackPhilip 🙏🔮
