I know a lot of editors probably don't agree, but I am so sick of seeing editors make their edits based on a ton of old rules that we don't follow in every day speech anymore. Editing a YA right now (it's so good, can't wait for this one), & the author has an intro note about
My heart goes out those who are sad to see summer end, but giiiiiiirl my seasonal depression is LIFTING! My level of misery drops with each drop in temp! My happiness grows with the number of layers I have to wear! I gladly wave goodbye to the sun, who is nothing but mean to me!
Oh FEATHERS! Seeing all the bird inspired #MetGala looks on my feed makes me wish someone had asked me to attend…or, at the very least, dressed as ME! #FamousBird
AWESOME! My western, Navarro's Gold was named as one of 23 hidden gems in the @AmazonKindle for 2023 by @IndieBookView . What a nice surprise.

One thing that I despise about the 'quiet luxury' trend is it's so fucking boring. At least wealthy people in bygone eras had the decency to spend their money on arts and fine craftsmanship. Now everything is beige and boring, and we're losing so many incredible crafts.
This is hands down the BEST take on Goodnight Moon I’ve ever seen. I’ve never liked this book much (didn’t grow up with it, randomness and color scheme aren’t for me) and now it has a wonderful mystique.
Our Administration is partnering with Baby2Baby to launch a pilot program that provides maternal and newborn supply kits to low-income mothers.
I was thrilled to tour the LA facility - and together, we'll ensure moms have the resources they need to keep their families healthy.
Told the kids we were having a ketchup cleanse for at least a month and now it’s turning into a lesson on forms of government. This ain’t a democracy folks #meanmom
Dear Ma & Pa MAGA,
donald trump didn’t lower your taxes. He didn’t get your roads fixed or your bridges built. He didn’t get you healthcare coverage, lower the price of your prescriptions, decrease the deficit, end the opioid crisis, revive the coal industry, he didn’t make “covid disappear”, didn’t make Mexico “pay for the wall”, he didn’t “put America First” and he sure as hell didn’t “drain the swamp”.
So when you say he “fought for you”, you mean he validated your hate.
Because he didn’t do a goddamn thing for you other than that.
He hates who you hate.
And sadly, that’s all you think you need.
I have skipped through pregnant danger scenes countless times, disgusted by the sensationalism. Seeing Ellie and her mom wasn’t just a plot point. Like the rest of the show, it uplifted and offered a reason to keep on living and fighting every day. My thanks, #TheLastOfUs
Soft. Encouraging. Joking. Delighted. Proud. Protective. #TheLastOfUs consistently spends time on human tenderness. They magnify the brief time with Ellie and her mom, letting us feel how transformative giving birth is, even in a terrible, broken world.
