@maddow.msnbc.com I know there's a new sh*t show every day with that orange turd in the WH. However, this issue needs national attention. People need to know what's happening with indigenous women & children! What kind of POS does this?? www.azcentral.com/story/news/l...

I've been playing around in Canva today. Now it's time to get some writing done. 🤪

I had a bit of fun today in Canva. :) I can't say enough about WA and how hard the staff works to provide top-notch instructors, classes, and mentors. From WA2 on 2-8-25: "The art of fiction is the art of withholding information." -Katherine V. Forrest Apply here: bit.ly/3WslMPU #gclswa #lesfic

Our LGBTQ+ voices matter. Our stories matter. WE matter. Now is the time to follow your dream of writing that queer novel. GCLS WA was the best investment I ever made in myself as a writer. Not only in terms of education but also in terms of community. www.goldencrownliterarysociety.org/education

1/3 It’s time for an episode of: Maya is a Lying Liar Liz: Maya told me why you “really” didn’t want to wake up this morning. Me: She did? Do tell. Why didn’t I want to wake up this morning? Liz: She said it was because you were out until 4am. Me: [eyes wide, eyebrows raised] I was?

2/3 Liz: You were. Me: And what was I doing until 4am? Liz: You know...you were at the stripper party. Me: [had no clue my eyebrows could rise that high] The stripper party? Where? Liz: [rolls her eyes as if that was the stupidest question she’s ever heard] At the cop shop!

3/3 Me: A stripper party at the cop shop? Why was I there? Liz: Because you’re the one who trained them all! Me: So it was a graduation party?? Liz: No, it was just a stripper party at the cop shop. Me: Maya is a lying liar. I’m not a trainer. Happy Valentines Day!

Today has been spent decompressing, doing some minor revisions and, of course, rolling ideas around in the back of my mind. How did you spend your day?

Thanks to everyone who donated yesterday to our $20K for 20 Years fundraiser. We've now raised $13,147 with $6,853 left to our goal. Your contributions add up to big impact, helping our mission to elevate sapphic literature to continue. bit.ly/GCLSDONATE
