@mmdaviesostrom True dat: we have to advocate for ourselves, even with ourselves! Cut yourself some slack & try playing around with another medium. Cooking, finger painting, singing in a choir, gardening, dancing, surfing, watching birds--anything that connects you with flow can be liberating!

@GraceLP @EB_Booksellers @LeslieAbsher Plus, I think you live near each other? If I make it to Cali this summer, I'll reach out so we can all have coffee and talk writing!

[K.W. Oxnard is querying & revising @OxnardK]

@GraceLP @EB_Booksellers Just ordered it, Grace! And might I recommend my friend @LeslieAbsher 's memoir Spy Daughter/Queer Girl? I can't wait to dive into both of them!

@thejnicholas Palmetto bugs. Waking us up in the middle of the night with the unholy flickering of their thumb-sized creepy-as-shit wings.

@jon_cronshaw Also, I LOVED "The Pedestrian" and FAHRENHEIT 451 by Ray Bradbury. I had a crippling fear of anti-intellectual fascism--also a gift from my progressive grandmother. She now seems more prescient than ever.😳

@jon_cronshaw Due to a gift from my kickass grandmother, I was WAY into Robertson Davies. So probably the Deptford Trilogy?

[K.W. Oxnard is querying & revising @OxnardK]

@UnsolicitedP All of the above!

@GinaUrso Awaiting word on a prize for which I'm a finalist, and expecting a contract for a manuscript acceptance. So, happy news no matter which way the ball bounces!

The Okefenokee Swamp is too important to allow a risky mining operation next door. Help us protect the Swamp! https://t.co/rQi7YKEHY0

@MegStEsprit Be patient! It just takes a little time--but then you'll never have to switch glasses ever again. Heaven!

@TBQuarterly As a real estate agent, I encounter fascinating new characters for my fiction every day. As a real estate investor, I fund my writing dreams. Plus my writer friends all call me for RE advice. So, you know, win-win-win.
