This is genuinely not a problem for people who own boats over a certain size (especially with fully enclosed cabins)....
Based on a card game question: You, in your current life and current circumstances, must secretly get rid of a dead body. Do you think you could do it successfully in a way that wouldn't be found?

Ok, on the one hand: sobbing.
On the other hand: this feels like a good rehearsal for the sobbing in the cinema era I will be entering on Nov 17 (yes, I have early screening tickets).

MY KID WANTS ME TO TAKE THEM TO A MUSICAL!!!
They watched parts of "Come From Away" in a class at school and then we drove past a billboard saying that Seattle Rep has a production coming up and they asked if we could go.
Obviously we now have front row orchestra seats for a matinee.

I just got to tell a young adult (20-something as best I can tell) on TikTok, who posted about the idea of queer & neurodivergent escape fantasy stories about The Wayward Children and I am so excited for them to be finding those books for the first time.

I'm sending a note to my kid's drama teacher and stressing over which sticker to use for sealing the envelope.
In case anyone is wondering if "I hope the teacher likes me" is a feeling that eventually goes away....

Have you preordered yet???
Okay, this may not be as ridiculous a goal as I thought it was. Please, pre-order, encourage your friends to pre-order, and spread the word! We can actually get there!
If we can sell between 5,000 and 10,000 copies of OMENS OF CHAOS, we will debut comfortably on the New York Times Bestseller list, which is a very normal thing for a book to want (and will send a very clear message about what we want as a community). We won't, but a girl can dream.

As other people have noted, if you have local food banks, now would be an excellent time to donate cash to them, if you have the cash to spare. We will be upping our donations to food banks and hunger-related charities here in Ohio.

Sometimes a piece of music comes into your life at the moment of maximum emotional resonance. And when you write books, sometimes the emotions technically belong to fictional people. But the music is no less powerful.
