Me and my best friend saw the Smashing Pumpkins when they toured for Mellon Collie back in 1996. Now the two of us are going to see Billy Corgan perform that album at the Lyric Opera. And I found the shirt I bought back in 1996 in a box of old clothes! Victory! I know what I'm gonna wear!

I got a spam email today from someone who raved about MIGHTY MILLIE NOVAK and said she wanted to help it reach more readers. Very AI-speak vibe. I know I could have ignored it, but I decided to set a trap instead.

I just re-read the first query I ever wrote, wayyy back in 2007.
Friends, it is not great. 💀
It's good to know I've gotten better at this in the last 18 years. I still like the ferret, though.

Told my nephews about my new WIP, an adult thriller. Here's a pic of the pitch.
10-yo nephew: thinks the title should be MYSTERY AT THE BEACH.
7-yo nephew: thinks he knows what happens. They dug a hole and were hiding in the sand. Or they took a secret elevator into the 1920s.

OK, I am very new to using Bluesky. How is interacting going? Are people seeing your posts? For example—what do you think of my outfit I'm wearing today, for my birthday? (Are fun-colored blazers the way to get interactions?)

Texted my husband to ask him to make me tea. He replied as shown. My phone then suggested some responses. There's a long way to go before the robot takeover.
