Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank.

I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history.

Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors.

I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

I just submitted a short story to a writing competition for the first time since I was in middle school

Why does it feel like I posted my nudes to the internet

Y’all ever write something and keep reading it over thinking, “Damn, I wrote this?”

Just finished the prologue of my book & it’s one of my favorite things I’ve ever written. I want to finish the rest of this book now just to share it 🤭 lol

This is the face of courage and compassion. Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde for speaking truth to power on behalf of the marginalized.

Everyone excusing Elon Musk’s behavior due to his alleged autism should be chased into the sea with pitchforks

it’s both profoundly insulting to autistic people and also obviously not true

I could write a 100 post long thread about everything I gained from TT. The ADHD community helping me figure out life, the journalists on the ground reporting on events in far away countries, the passionate creators encouraging me to learn new subjects that I never though I'd find interest in 1/2

I’m back here for good!

My lack of posting since my first introduction can be attributed to the fact I am now an *employed* 24 yr old, but everything else remains the same!

My fellow #booktok refugees, welcome to #booksky — you’re going to love it here. 💌
Let’s get this out of the way:

Chronically online & unemployed 24 yr old with 2 degrees (PR & advertising) who can’t find a job post-grad who’s writing her first fantasy novel in the meantime. Reading book 39/50 of her goal this year. ADHD. Metal music connoisseur. Amateur graphic designer. You?

It's fun to be living in a moment when it seems like we are about to enter an era of terrifying authoritarianism OR an era of authoritarian overreach that immediately crumbles and gives way to something better, and these two things might happen simultaneously, and we won't know for sure for A BIT.

Someone stealing my TikTok and posting it on Instagram then Emily Henry reposting *their* post on her story was not on my 2025 bingo card. Like at all, actually.

And I know for a fact it’s my pictures bc I accidentally put the wrong quote for one of the characters and no one fixed it 🙃

after a months long writing slump & returning to the drawing board after scrapping my entire first draft, I’m back at it with my first novel (working title ‘Project Clusterfuck’).

here’s a sneak peek 🤭 feeling good about this one!

I would love to hear from any writers on here!

What resources do you feel helped hone your craft?

I read ‘Save The Cat! Writes a Novel’ a few months ago. Currently reading ‘On Writing’ by Stephen King. Thinking ‘The Elements of Style’ by Strunk Jr. & White will be next.

Suggestions? ⬇️

who was I to decide to have my first book *ever* operate within two concurrent timelines a thousand years apart? then have them overlap in the last half of said book so they have to be interconnected bc a character violated time travel law? this is how I feel writing it:

Left Twitter 3 years ago and never looked back. TikTok brought me here and it feels like 2013 again when I first joined the bird app. It’s good to be back.
