At the risk of sounding like I'm pity marketing, I really need to talk about how fucking hard it is as a disabled person to take care of my mental and physical health while also promoting/ marketing/writing/editing and doing interviews/blog posts/events/emails and the list goes on (1/5)

We're torturing children. We're terrorizing them. The long tail of what this regime has done to kids (first term AND second time around) is going to haunt for generations.
🚨NEW: Declarations filed in the lawsuit against the rushed attempt to deport 600 Guatemalan children reveals the chaotic way the Trump admin carried out the operation.

Children were taken out of bed after midnight to be rushed onto planes. One girl "was so scared she vomited."

it's time for the obligatory bnn preorder sale promo! If you've been waiting for a discount to buy The Golden Boy's Guide to Bipolar, I have good news! It's included in the Barnes & Nobles preorder sale from now until Friday, September 5. I hope you enjoy 💜

I originally had a really cool preorder campaign planned for The Golden Boy's Guide to Bipolar but unfortunately the fiery pits of depression hell got to me first, which I suppose is fitting since I promised myself not to perform wellness for this release.

mental health update:
I noticed a small piece of proof that I'm making progress today. I used to quietly put up with pain when I was hurting. I convinced myself I deserved to be in pain, and that I should just put up with it like everyone else. (1/5)

I made a spotfund for this if anyone is feeling generous 💜

I'm mad and I don't feel like being quiet about it so here's my little (probably actually long) vent about insurance being a FUCKING SCAM

So I found out a month ago I need to get a CPAP so I can breathe while I'm asleep. I was actually really excited to learn that I have severe sleep apnea (1/7)

My therapist told me I should compliment myself in the mirror so I hyped myself up this morning before I finally went to say something nice and when I got there I pointed at myself and just froze and said "nice" and you know what it actually made me feel very nice! 10/10 highly recommend!

genuine question for readers: what kind of marketing from an author actually makes you want to read a book? And is there any type of marketing that makes you NOT want to read a book from that author?

gonna be really vulnerable for a bit and then we can all pretend everything is fine again. I think the reason I haven't talked much about The Golden Boy's Guide to Bipolar even though it comes out in less than two months is because I'm currently in the trenches of my mental illness.
