Fantastic piece from @washingtonpost.com on the art of #editing and the necessity to embrace feedback as a writer. A great reminder that all the best #writing is an obsessive quest through the labyrinth of rewriting. #writingcommunity

Super Bowl Sunday #GoBirds

I've thought a lot about the film 'The Death of Stalin' lately. In 2017 it felt like a hilarious yet chilling warning sign of history repeating, but now that history has done just so, it has morphed into a live webcam capturing Trump's cabinet of thin-skinned, spineless stooges with eerie precision.

As my kids step up to the doorstep of two, I've come to realize that Phantom Thread is really just a flick about toddlers working it out, played by Oscar-winning actors. The only thing missing is Ms. Rachel's "Big Feelings" song.

One of those listening to The Fugitive soundtrack all day kind of days.

When you spend years writing a manuscript & then months prepping to query, only to submit to one of your dream agents and then realize you referred to them by the wrong name. #AmQuerying #WritingCommmunity

After 5+ years of writing/revising/ripping out hair follicles, I’m finally #querying my novel! It’s both an exhilarating & terrifying feeling to have carried this obsession for so long, only to suddenly dump it out into the wild. Here's hoping it finds a home. #amquerying

Just walked into a coffee shop in Philly and ran into Jill Biden. Thanks to my kids’ finger print smudges on my iphone lens, the image has a retro Hollywood 1940s gauzed look to it. Just a friendly reminder to vote!
