Good morning, creatives! I'm pleased to announce that yesterday, I signed a contract with Martin Literary Management's agent, Lindsay Guzzardo! I'm excited to work with her! #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

Don Winslow 👇

A good Party man puts his Party above himself; His Country above his Party. Solitary trees if they grow, they grow STRONG. To improve is to change;l To be perfect change often. ADMIRAL Churchill. If you begin to consider yourself solely responsible to a political Party you're halfway to Dictatorship

The founding fathers did not live and die to see this moment. It’s time for all of us to stand up peacefully.

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Newsom: Trump, he's not opposed to lawlessness and violence as long as it serves him. What more evidence do we need than January 6th?

Good morning, creatives! Here we are, mid-week already. I'm holding my breath because I have good news to share, but I don't want to until I sign on the dotted line ... I don't want to jinx it. #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

This is the spirit of Los Angeles. This is California. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. #FreeDavidEndRaids

Good morning, creatives! I'm up and ready to write. Coffee is brewing, and the birdies are chirping their greeting outside my window. Happy Monday! #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity This was taken in Sevierville, TN. I used to have a cabin in the mountains there.

Share this. It’s why the White House demanding ABC get rid of Terry Moran. Moran has been suspended. What Moran said is accurate and true. Make sure his post makes the rounds.

ICE is raiding Home Depots in LA because nothing says “national security” like cracking down on people buying mulch.

Goldman: Both of the issues Marjorie Taylor Greene raised—were widely publicized and thoroughly debated in committee and on the House floor. If you’re publicly admitting that you didn’t know what you were voting on and now regret it—you’re not competent or qualified to serve in Congress.

Good morning, creatives! I must head back to the city this afternoon. I had a lovely, peaceful weekend at the lake, and so did Penny. Here's wishing you a wonderful and productive week! #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

Good morning, creatives! I hope you find time to write today! Looks like rain here, so I'll work on the WIP, drink copious amounts of coffee, and maybe even read for fun. #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

A must watch: Train Takes Eric Swalwell meets withDan Goldman  on the Capitol subway to get his take on reading bills. His view? It’s generally a good idea when IT’S YOUR JOB! Check it out! 🚂 @ericswalwell.bsky.social @repdangoldman.bsky.social

When 15 million Americans lose their health care and plunge into personal crisis, none of them are going to give a shit about a made-for-clicks twitter fight between two billionaires arguing about who gets the bigger share of the corruption spoils.

If you watch only one video today, let it be this one. Watch NYU Stern School of Business Professor Scott Galloway’s outstanding commentary on what prosperity and wealth should mean in America. His words could not be more on point and timely. Please pass it on.

Chicago fighting back against ICE. You love to see it 💪

Good morning, creatives! I'm at the cabin, enjoying the sound of the loons on our lake. We had a visitor, too! Nature soothes the soul. Do you agree or disagree? I'm finished rewriting the YA, and now I'm making changes to the 2nd book in that series. #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity
