The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting.

Holy shit. I'm only 20 sales away from having sold 400 copies of "Good Boys Don't Howl."

Most were free, but the money wasn't the point. The point was "I'm SUPER queer" and allowing myself to embrace it.

So, uh... Anyone interested in a very kinky sex comedy story?

Posting this is giving me a lot of anxiety, but I am being persuaded by a friend to do it.

I am not expecting miracles nor would I be comfortable with that, so let me talk a little. 🧵

Social safety nets are in tatters, resources are evaporating, and there are few good options left for those trying to leave toxic relationships, escape abuse, seek shelter in emergencies, etc.

We *need* to support what resources remain and find/establish new ways to confront these issues head-on.
A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.

When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.

This is outrageous.

Making up for two months of sleep deprivation takes a lot longer than expected, so I'm trying to remain mindful of how I use my energy. When I don't have the space to talk about writing, it's really nice to be able to read about what all of you are working on.

Thank you for sharing and chatting! 😁

A $50 donation brought me up to $320, but that's not quite half of the $700 I need by 11AM tomorrow. Can you be the next person to chip in TONIGHT?

Please keep sharing, too! This is TIME SENSITIVE.
19 HOUR CRUNCH, with much of that time in the quiet middle of the night.

At $270 of $700 rent due 11AM tomorrow, also need $350 for late storage BEFORE MONTH ENDS. #PleaseShare, and help if you can? CANNOT survive the street at all.

Kaylee just shot up the staircase like she was being chased by who-only-knows-what and then leapt on to the bed. She looked at the lamp with a wild look in her eyes before darting away into the darkness.

I don't know what she's chasing or being chased by but I'm glad she seems to be able to see it!

Dear new followers: I think you probably all followed me because I’m on this list, but there’s a lot of people on there who are actually fun to follow, so give them a go too. 👍🏻
So apparently we are getting an influx of people from the dead bird site again.

If you're looking for folks to follow. Here are my suggestions.

As there a lot of newcomers to the #WritingCommunity here, these are all accounts I enjoy interacting with here!

It was hard to move away from the Bad Place, but I've become a lot more comfortable in myself and sharing my writing, and a lot of these folks are responsible for that.

In this circle of pleasure, our protagonist must confront the idea that physical delights are not reserved for a lucky few and that it IS possible for others to not only delight in her enjoyment, but also pursue it with intent.
