Timeline cleanse! Dolly Parton just posted a snippet of her singing "What's Up" with Linda Perry. So much for the Non Blondes. 😂

This is so depressing. Writers at Teen Vogue wrote some great news pieces.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

In June I did a writing challenge on Medium.com called Just Start Writing. It was challenging and I learned a new approach to writing essays. I am glad I did it.

Now I am trying to decide if I want to read another novel or a non fiction book.

I just finished reading this book. I liked it but I thought it was a little depressing in spots. #booksky

This whole situation is so depressing and upsetting.
This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?

This looks so interesting and I want to read the book. I am not sure I have the time to read it in time for this discussion. I am already reading 2 other books. I love music so I put it on my to read list.

I used to have a Twitter account; I deleted it when Musk bought it out. I used to enjoy the accounts on Twitter that would give writing prompts.

I started this account because I want to go after some writing goals and connect with other writers. I love to read. I am also a big music lover.
