“Parents only accounted for 16% of book bans…” As a public school parent, I already knew this. This not about “protecting children.” It’s about controlling what info kids have access to & trying to create a generation that is less intelligent & empathetic. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

A robin built her nest on my front porch. It’s right outside my office window. Now every time I look up from my computer, I get to watch her build her little family. This your timeline cleanse.

I am so overwhelmed by the political state of this country that a part of my brain is shutting down. If you don’t see me posting political hot takes here, it’s not bc I don’t care. I call & email my reps! I protest! I’m just at a loss on what to say.

Also I hope we're all on this same page EVERYONE needs to be brought out of that El Salvadorian hell hole they were ALL wrongfully deported. I mean it's good to focus on 'And this guy was here legally and not ever a gang member AND they're Venezuelan' but NO ONE should've been sent there

7 of my novels were illegally downloaded by Meta from a piracy site to train Meta’s AI. Meta did not ask for permission, pay or sign licensing contracts. They stole. Authors- you can check if your books have been stolen here: www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

I have an epilogue in my upcoming YA Horror THE SILENCED & all of my other books bc as a reader I love to know how it works out in the end. I also love when movies end w/snapshots like “3 yrs later Jane became the president of a major tech company & finally divorced Brad….” Do you like epilogues?

Bookish friends- I have an old TT post (more than a year) about author JD Barker getting lots of views now. Does anyone know why? I googled him & didn’t see any recent news. It’s my post about Barker asking reviewers to pose w/out clothes to promote his book. Did he do something else recently?

As a writer, I try not to talk in absolutes. Words have meaning. There are always exceptions… Except for this— It is NEVER ok to sleep w/ur babysitter. Ever. There is always a power imbalance-especially if ur a millionaire, 40yrs her senior, & she’s homeless. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

Neil Gaiman is calling the person suing him for sexual assault a fantasist because he has text messages. Two things: multiple people have credibly accused him of assault. He's paid out hundreds of thousands already and forced NDAs. BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY... www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

Today I turned in copy edits for THE SILENCED (Girl Interrupted meets Poltergeist, Sept. ‘25, Delacorte)!!! I immediately danced to Janet Jackson. In my mind, I can still do the original choreography to “If.” Writers—what is your celebration ritual when you finish a book or draft?

I haven’t been posting here as much bc I’m still figuring this app out. I’ve learned that cross-posts from threads don’t often work here bc threads rewards controversy. Authors- are you posting different content here than on the other apps?

My copy editor’s name is Jamie Jo Johnson. That name! It has me imagining a chapter book where a plucky fourth grader named Jamie Jo Johnson rules the playground and hijinks ensue. There’s also probably a cat…

My 8th grader is thinking of going to an All Girls high school. I had her make a Pro and Con list. In the Pro Column for girls school she wrote: “I won’t have to worry about school sh00tings.” I asked her why she thought that. 13yr old: “Because girls don’t commit mass sh00tings.” Mic drop
