I'm also a devoted fan of the AZ Diamondbacks, painful as that may be at times.
No DMs please, unless we already know each other.

My "following" feed has begun to fill up with political posts that I came here to avoid. As a result, I'll soon be culling many people I followed in the beginning.
So for anyone who wants to follow me now, know that if your posts are mostly political, I won't follow back. Hope you understand.

I'm ready to watch Game 7 of the 2025 World Series.
Fun fact: Although I'm American, I've watched so much NHL hockey that I know all the words to the beautiful Canadian national anthem, O Canada, and can sing along. And so I do.

I'm pondering all the cords below my desk and behind my TV cabinet, and wondering if I laid them all end to end if they'd reach the Pacific ocean. (I'm in AZ).

Once I finish settling in to my new digs and get back to my WIP, I'm tempted to write in a scene where a repairman is late, or inept, or doesn't show at all. I have recent experience with this matter.

I had a dream about Tom last night, not knowing that he was gone.
I met him at the #TFB as his volunteer driver for 3 years. He was so generous with his knowledge and encouragement, and we had lots of fun.
I'm heartbroken to learn of his passing.

I've been binge-watching House Hunters on HGTV. The buyers seem like regular people, with families and regular lives, and not huge incomes. However, invariably, their budget to buy is $1 million. How is this possible?
I can't relate.

Made-from-scratch Fish Tacos. Yes, the result was delicious. But they were a lot of damn work! And don't even get me started on how long the cleanup took.
Never again.

#querytip: The bulk of your query letter should be your pitch. Your metadata, your bio, and any other bonus info you provide COMBINED should be half or just barely more than half of your query letter. Bare minimum 40% of your query letter should be your pitch paragraph(s). Ideally closer to 50%.

@pirates.com's 3B Hayes' backswing hit DBacks catcher McCann in the head. McCann was down for several minutes before regaining his feet. When Hayes returned to the batters' box, he didn't even look at McCann, much less apologize.
Fine example of why the Pirates have a rep as a dirty ballclub.

I'm in the 1st revision of my WIP, struggling with loose ends in the last chapter. Today while driving, I got a great idea for fixing the problems, and - wonder of wonders - I remembered the idea once I got home and could type myself a note.
Please clap.

I didn't think it possible, but Robert DeNiro just gets better and better. I loved his new film, "Zero Day," and just watched an older one, "The Intern."
If you have Netflix, check them out. They're very different films, but he shines in both.
