@jodyjsperling @SouffleLumiere It's not everyone's business model. Many genre authors make money and have thrilled and loyal readership without it.

@jodyjsperling The real question is why are we "counting" reading and running. To measure them? To get credit for something? I don't get it.

@toddedillard Not only is it "not weird," but if the thought strikes you, I'd really encourage reaching out while they are still around to hear it. I often don't reflect on how influential someone was until I hear they died and it's too late.

@LKB64 @missmulrooney I have a lot of anxiety about food so I raised my kids to pretty much eat wherever and whenever. Some messes but no disasters so far.

@joekornik @amablue_ @lauren37132 @KatieDeal99 @kindminds_ It's personal though isn't it. Big kids, big stress, big stakes = bug worries. Some of us more than others.

@amablue_ @lauren37132 @KatieDeal99 @kindminds_ Raise newborns to be awesome and crazy (but manageable) children, then when they are 14 or 15 they are eaten by aliens who look like them, live in your house and refuse to talk to you.
