Enjoy this picture my three year old took of her toes this morning.

67 days since I became one of those people who survived a natural disaster. A lot of the pieces of me didn’t though, and the last few days have been particularly hard. I don’t cry all the time anymore, but I feel like I’m taking steps backward.

Woke up to 6” of snow this mornin and my heart is breaking for all the people living in tents across Western NC and East TN today. “Let thanks and giving be more than just a season” #helene #erwintennessee

"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"

You are enough♥️

Y’all already knew I was gonna go see Wicked again today

As I have somehow surpassed 7k followers on here I thought it might be nice to do a giveaway: All 7 of my books to one lovely winner. Just share and like to be in with a chance! 😁📚

“The best way to bring folks together is to give them a real good enemy” #wicked #holdingspace

Holding so much space for the lyrics of defying gravity that ima go see it again tonight. #wicked #masterpiece

Honestly as a theatre kid I know why the Wicked press tour is a bunch of crying and handholding now… They made their masterpiece. They could actually be weirder and I’d still get it. #wicked #masterpiece

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? Epicurus

Wicked absolutely crushed every expectation I had. What a wonderful masterpiece.

wicked should’ve cast me in the role of gaylinda

Might not be in Miami anymore, but I wish I was for the book fair #booksky #miami

Didn’t expect a man with “NO DM’s” in his bio to immediately DM me. What was I thinking?

It’s finally my turn to see wicked #wicked #popular

The dress code for blue sky is inner beauty, we don’t care what you’re wearing!

My work bestie used “concepts of a plan” in a meeting at 11 am this morning and I’m still hollerin #corporategirlie

Anyone else find themselves up binge eating a lot post election 🫣 #electionblues #thiscantbereal

Don’t forget: Some people impacted by Helene in Appalachia are still living in tents with snow on the ground. Just because the news gave up on us, doesn’t mean you should! “Let’s thanks and giving be more than just a season” #helene #appalachia #erwintn

The best gift we could give Elon for the holidays is a worthless platform #bluesky #byeX

she’s a 10 but tells you the plot of every book she’s ever read #booksky

If you're a writer, translator, editor, anyone who works in writing, then you should read. Read novels, short stories, articles, non-fiction, anything. Just read.

If this existence thing is just a dream, I'd rate it 40% on Rotten Tomatoes: The plot goes in circles, the dialog's annoying as hell, the villains are just plain stupid and the wrong people are nude

Always waking up with mysterious bruises I didn't have the night before. Can only surmise I'm being visited by The Night Boxer

Nate Silver just tweeted he doesn’t like Bluesky so now I know we’re onto something

Buttt… I…. Okay whatever he’s right.

Blue Sky just feels so refreshing. Like I’m not being manipulated or radicalized.

Remarkably Bright Creatures was the best book I read this year, and I never knew I needed it. #booksky #read #kindlegirlie

If I’m already doing it alone By myself in every cyclone Then leaving you is the solution And a happier tomorrow is the conclusion #poetry

The heavy longing Of a heart unfulfilled Each piece a shattered memory Each shard a chance to reawaken #firstpost #amidoingthisright #poetry

Please read books. I’m begging you.

Remember in the movie “Aliens” when no one listened to the woman and then everyone died? That’s what the vibe feels like right now.
