Remember the phrase “the real McCoy?” It’s based on a real live person, a Black man whose invention revolutionized the train industry. Others tried to copy his invention, but they couldn’t hold up, so buyers wanted to ensure they were getting THE REAL MCCOY.

Just remember in Germany the Nazis were doing what was legally right. The people who hid Anne Frank in their attic were doing what was morally right.

Black History Month, Women’s History Month, Pride Month, Juneteenth, and pretty much any month or holiday not celebrating a white man will no longer be recognized or celebrated by the administration. Is this the United States anymore?

Sat down the other day to write a short tale about a person and their dog and end up with over 8,000 words and 18 pages. Anyone know of a place taking long literary fiction about loss?

If the FAA director got fired over a business beef AND there was an air traffic controller hiring freeze despite huge shortages AND a chaotic blitz to hollow out federal bureaucracy, and then within a week the first American airliner crashes in 16 years, you would be insane not to talk about it all.

I’m hoping my book will become more popular. Disability representation is hard to market, especially in the fantasy romance department. But we deserve to be the heroes of the stories and to have our romances too! Hopeful it will be discovered and the word will spread.

@barnesandnoble.com what is your stance on disabled representation for YA? Because this is what kids need to see, & not just the disabled kids
