Librarian (K schedule ftw) and knitter. Do I even need to mention the cats?
#showmeyourknits And here's another for love. Esmeralda Petronella modeling an in-process dog sweater (shh, don't tell her). Doing her best Super Ezzie impersonation. 🧶💜🐈‍⬛

#showmeyourknits For love, have a little leg-less crab. He was knit with love for my daughter, even if his legs never materialized...

#showmeyourknits I've only done three (maybe four?) sweaters, and all three of them have been for my nephews. Two as toddlers, and then the one I just finished for the oldest. 🧶

I'm excited to introduce my latest piece, "Front Beach in Morning Light." 6x8" pastel inspired by my morning walk on New Year's Eve 2024, aiming to evoke the tranquility of that moment. I hope it offers you a glimpse into the calm and reflective mood of a seaside dawn.

Sitting on my couch listening to Marian Anderson sing Ave Maria on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, while wearing my Pussy Hat and pearls and working on a shawl WIP. 🧶

Goals, honestly. 🧶
I’m officially an old lady:

Obvs very late for this week's pink #showmeyourknits. I don't have much in the way of pink, but here's one that'll be out and proud again shortly. 🧶

WIP Wednesday 🧶: Musselburgh because Shifting Sands beading isn't practical for desk knitting. 😆

After finishing the body, having to frog it back to the collar and knitting it all over again, my nephew's sweater is finally done. The pattern is Mountain Mist from Tin Can Knits. 🧶 #showmeyourknits

A story that begins with a corpse on the floor is a mystery. A story that ends with a corpse on the floor is a tragedy. A story that begins with a floor on a corpse is The Wizard of Oz.

I did a talk at a high school about an hour ago and one girl timidly asked about romance. I immediately said that I read it, I love it, and furthermore, it literally keeps publishing afloat as is the reason that most other genres can get published at all.
I have a lot of new followers via starter packs & such and some of you apparently didn't clock that I'm a romance author because I've definitely gotten some snide condescending comments from people who definitely think I'll agree.

I will not. This is a one strike & you're out situation.
jokes and willful ignorance about romance novels are so tired. i will block you. im not the one.

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

This.
Don’t pile on Jack Smith for voluntarily dismissing charges against Trump without prejudice. It means the new Trump AG can’t come in and kill the cases on Trump’s terms. Smart move by Smith that preserves options for later.
