Special 25: Sharing a New Project With You https://t.co/JAfZTeqLVn

[Kris Baker Dersch @noextrawords]

True story: after slogging through my first ever Stephen King book (not bad but does it have to be so long?) I am kinda taking a break from books by white dudes. Does this make me prejudiced or just diverse in my choices? Could go either way. #amreading

To the woman on the bike trail this morning walking while reading a book: you're my hero. #amreading #bookworm

I miss sharing other people's fiction in this way...it was a season of life that had to come to an end but it was such a joy to feature work by Ajay and many others #podcaster

[Ajay Patri @ajaybpatri]

This story was turned into a podcast at No Extra Words by the wonderful @noextrawords. The first time (and the last, as of this moment) that my work has been featured in an audio format.

I had just turned 24. I was trying to stay sober, living on $200 a week and was so incapable of taking care of myself that I hadn't seen a dentist in 6 years. It was a deeply sad experience AND a decision I never once regretted. 1 in 4. #youknowme

@BillMcStowe Thank you so much! <3

Another reason I prefer libraries to coffee shops: no background music.

My kid now really thinks I've made it getting to interview @adhdessentials! He's been on Youtube with his Wall of Awful on @HowtoADHD AND he's interviewed Dav Pilkey of Captain Underpants fame. :) https://t.co/p7l4EWkY8o

Read in a #poem today:

In celebration of #NationalHaikuPoetryDay, how about another shout out to our #WSFHaiku contest winner @siri_soleil! Their poem will be on the cover of our Summer 2019 Sailing Schedule:

Warm pink rays of light
Reflect on shimmering sea
We watch the sun rise
