Politicians lying is nothing new, but the determined, relentless lying in the face of irrefutable proof is a far more recent development. This is not normal. It’s basic gaslighting. It is abusive boyfriend behavior plain and simple. We need to breakup with these sorts of leaders immediately.

April is the cruelest month. My English BA was wasted on youth. I get it now. Spring is the rebirth of nature and of memory. Shame, pain, disillusion. Eliot was our bard of despair. I grow old, I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled. He was 22 when he wrote that. *sigh*

I call Mark Sarvas the Novel Whisperer. Check out his newsletter.

Best time of day at Lake U.S.A. (formerly Lake Merritt, Oakland, CA) within the semi-autonomous SpaceX-Starlink National Wild Libtard Zone, the last remaining home of free-range traitors, drag queens, trans men and women, non-binary, and similar folx. 🧵👇🏻

Big event tomorrow night @boulderbookstore.bsky.social! Come on down! Live on the radio @kgnu.bsky.social (which is a shame because my natural beauty will be wasted on the listeners).

I fall asleep howling at the moon, regardless of phase. I jolt awake drenched in sweat even when not sleeping. They watch my every move but pretend they don't know me. I compulsively hit refresh while viewing an Etsy auction for chrome-plated pentagram cuff links. Pity me. I am a writer on query.

Can confirm. Former USAID here, and I’ve been approached twice in the last 30 days.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:
18f.org

Flawed and unscrupulous: words used to describe me AND my protagonists. Join me for at the Lighthouse Writers Workshop and learn the art of madness. Sign up link in comments.

Who knew a noir suspense/thriller about a retired porn star beaten, left for dead, and framed for murder by Romanian mobsters would have so many memorable and provocative lines?

Money Shot by @christafaust. Last installment of the Angel Dare trilogy coming soon from @penguinrandomhouse

I have my ticket. Meet me in Denver. I'll be wearing a grey fedora and a red carnation on my lapel. Shoutout (fedora tip?) to Lighthouse Writers Workshop (lightousewriters.org) for a great lineup (and a snazzy brochure to boot).

News Flash: Trump declares himself Editot in Chief of the Big 5 publishing houses and winner of the American Booksellers and National Book Awards. Tells Sean Hannity in an exclusive interview his sales figures are "beautiful" and higher than Obama and MLK.

Dear Hot Agents and Editors:

New manuscript in town. Single, bisexual, and GGG. Word count proportional to depth. Seeking something long term.

I can put on a hard cover for a night at the bookstore but just as happy to stay home and Kindle a fire in the hearth.
