I have a plot twist that can be best described as "a hot new bombshell has entered the villa," and it has me giggling. 🤭

Just got an email to my business with the subject "Query directed to Katie", and I was wondering why someone was sending me a submission package. 😂 It also took me back to my querying days in an instant.

Reposting this again bc like — I want to be able to respond in some productive way to every awful thing I see, but we are literally not built for that. So I picked an org in my lane and I’m offering up my skills. Spent an hour today working through the first piece of a new plan. And it felt good.
Y'all pick a lane. Then make a little progress in your lane each day.
Every serious, experienced organizer I know is Doing Their Thing. Instead of freaking out about each bit of bad news, we're in our lanes rapidly building dual power infrastructure and networks that don't rely on the goverment.

Lately, I've been imagining fan edits for a TV show based on a book I haven't finished drafting yet.

Now that we’re finally PM official—my debut novel will be out NEXT YEAR! I love this book with my whole heart, and it’s been such a weird and winding journey to get here. I have so things to say and people to thank and it’s very overwhelming, but I’m so so excited to bring this book to the world. 🪐

Everyone 6 months and older is eligible to get a flu vaccine.
It makes no sense to restrict Covid vaccines to only people who have specific medical conditions.
The FDA is basing its decisions on politics, not science.

Writing #PaintingWIP has been so interesting because I've had it plotted for 2+ years, and now that I'm finally drafting it, I'm finding all those magic places where the characters deviate from said plot and really bring it to life.
60K+ in and the third act is just ahead 👀

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody.
She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care.
This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.

In March, I attended the Volunteer Leadership Summit for the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation. There were SO MANY takeaways, and our chapter won some awards! Here are a few key facts that stuck out to me: 1/🧵

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

Spotify just told me that I was in the top 1% of Bon Iver listeners last week, and I'm not sure what to do with this information. Probably should go put If Only I Could Wait on repeat again.

![a post from E.M. Anderson with a one-star review, reading, "Zero (point) five stars. everyone is gay, the ghosts have no corporeal form, and the author is obsessed with death and grief. the immortal MC doesn't even look like a hot 25-year-old! I was promised a COMFORT READ but this is MISERY. also what's with all the waistcoats." below the review is a partial aesthetic for The Keeper of Lonely Spirits, with images of faded flowers, a cottage on a hill, an antique diary, yellow flowers, tombstones, and a mortuary statue of someone kissing the deceased's forehead. a textbox reads, "You get used to it" and "I hope I never get used to being alone." another textbox reads, "That's what life is. You lose people you love and you love more people and you lose them too and you" [text cuts off].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7wdc4zowcyzk6nuoqkvyhyu4/bafkreid5a44tvpikxdhj65cyfhz3dl2iflchw5oknqw7mu6oxdtzqqzhfq@jpeg)
