Starting the first draft of my second book. In case anyone was wondering - Jedediah has performed his first miracle! #writing #booksky

Why did the richest man in the world also have to be evil? #musk #trump #oligarchy

I love football season because I get so much reading done #booksky #superbowl

Admitting I don’t care about sports is what #freedom feels like #superbowl

I like writing because I get to live in my own made up version of dystopia instead of the real dystopia with Trump #writing #dystopia #trumpsamerica

I understand now. Trumps plan to reduce egg prices was to remove the eggs altogether. I went from paying $5 for eggs, now I pay $0. #trumpsamerica #eggs

The only good thing about 2025 is that I get to see incubus in concert again.

Turns out it was never about small government #trumpsamerica

My partner in the other room: ahh who scored? Me: Washington scored Her: That’s not Washington. Me: They’re not green? Her: Washington has the big W on their helmets… Me: …🤷🏽‍♀️ #sports #football

I just started writing my second novel. When describing it my partner said, “You’re writing a future banned book.” We laughed. Once I revise my first novel, I expect that one will be banned too. I guess banned books are my niche now 🤷🏽‍♀️ #writing #booksky #bannedbooks

Just finished writing my first novel. Starting on my second today. Some days I feel like an imposter. Then I remember trump is president again and Hegseth is running our military, and the imposter syndrome goes away. #writing #trumpsamerica #booksky

We WILL go back to a merit based system where weekend talk show hosts with alcohol problems and sexual assault allegations CAN run the department of defense, because damn it, he’s earned it! #hegseth #trumpsamerica

A day I never expected to come - I just finished the first draft of my FIRST novel. 80,731 words.

Tomorrow Fox News will celebrate the anti-woke executive order passed by trump. Quietly protections to help Americans lower prescription drug costs were removed in that EO. He’s not one of us #oligarchy #inauguration #trumpsamerica

I can’t wait to live in a #stephenking novel for the next four years

Why does today feel like the Deathday Party in Harry Potter? People trying to celebrate with rotten food and putrid guests #inauguration

Man, Josh Allen is a good qb but Derrick Henry is a good… oh wait I don’t care about sports. Thank god. #writing #booksky

Thank god trump brought TikTok back. Now when he takes away our healthcare and people are dying, at least we’ll be entertained. The way god intended!

Writing a novel is wild. Is it fantastic? Is it garbage? I have no idea 🤷🏽‍♀️ #writing #booksky

I’m so glad that over the next few years my hard earned tax dollars won’t have to support life saving care, like medical abortions, and instead can subsidize corporations for billionaires - like god intended!

I don’t think 1:1 therapy is going to solve the mental health crisis. We need more community spaces, better legislation, and more safety nets.

2025- the year America reunites with its toxic ex

I love reading, always have, always will. But I will likely never read over 100 books any year. Because books are meant to supplement life, not the other way around.

2025 word of the year: Grifter

I’ve always wanted to write a novel. A year ago I made myself a promise. It wasn’t to write a novel, it was to become the type of person who COULD write a novel. To write everyday with discipline, persistence, and give away the criticism and self doubt.

I’ll never forget hearing that Americans made a deal - big business in exchange for cheaper prices. Now that prices have gone up we’re pissed. It’s only now we realize what we gave up - small businesses, ma and paps, restaurants run by neighbors, book stores, & neighborhoods that feel like community

Sometimes I wish there was a internet browser for “I’m a horror writer not a serial killer”

Is it coincidence or fate that Running Man (Bachman/King) takes place in 2025 and trump takes office that year?

Our best and worst trait as humans is our ability to adapt.

The difference between Amber Heard and Blake Lively is that Lively has more resources, a supportive husband, and more stability. This was an easy job for the PR people because we want to hate women.

My proposal: we keep the second amendment. We melt all the handguns and ARs BUT you can have as many muskets as your little heart desires. The NRA becomes the NMA. And we make muskets great again!

Since the election I’ve started referring to dystopian literature as “future nonfiction”

Why does Musk torpedoing a bipartisan bill and screwing over much of rural America and NC feel like the political version of an own goal? #governmentshutdown

I’m only reading dystopian novels from now until January 2029.
