How does one reconcile the need to market as an indie author with the urge to delete all social media? Asking for a friend! 🥹😅👻

Well dang, I just dreamed an entire short film about zombies, and it was really satisfying. Shame I don’t write screenplays…or should I? 🤔🧟♀️

Clubs and bars are out. Let's open a late night Bookstore where you can silently mingle, drink tea, and read into all hours of the night.

One of my favorite things about POLTERGEIST is how Steven Freeling, father of three, has totally accepted that his house is haunted and his daughter was taken away by spirits in the TV static, but then a spirit medium shows up at his house and he's like "I call bullshit."

It’s generally known that ghosts create “cold spots” but can they ever make “hot spots?” Instead of the feeling of a cold hand touching your face, could it be warm instead? Asking for, uh, a friend. 😅

Congratulations on surviving the chaos of this week. May you take a moment to be selfish this weekend, may your drink of choice be your preferred temperature, and above all else may you find the strength to keep fighting for actual freedoms for another day 🖤

HEART EYES is an absolute blast, sure to become an annual Valentine’s Day watch. Expertly hits all the rom-com AND horror notes. A bespoke slasher with inventive (and stylish) kills likely to end up on end of year best of lists 👀😍

My 24 year old printer has jammed its last jam. I typically drag my feet replacing tech and appliances, so this is 100% on me. 😆

I think the collective loss of memory about teen vogues quality news is largely a tell about people’s bias against teens and women
hi! @teenvogue.bsky.social has been a reliable outlet for strong political journalism since at min 2016 — which was *9* years ago!

Friendly reminder that if you buy a book on Kindle, you're only paying for the rights to read, not own. If a book truly gets banned, it will be taken away from digital platforms like Kindle, nook, etc. Consider getting physical copies of banned (or other) books!
