Meta stole so many of my books to train AI (all of them) the list can barely fit in a screenshot . They even stole a novella that I barely publicize because it’s almost impossible to find. We chumps have to follow rules and laws and the tech zillionaires do what they want.

Odyssey of the Mind state finals! I filtered the daylights out of this photo. Coach life.

We are mostly seniors and this is our last year!

Welp, I’m out. When the gajillionaire regime-appeasing owner brings down the hammer on what opinions are allowed, I no longer trust the whole operation. Sorry to the good reporters doing their best. It’s not you.

(This movie is still phenomenal, one of the best depictions of newspapering on film)

Why did I wait so long to get to Epilogue Books in Rockford MI? It’s 20 miles away, not 200. Anyway, fixed that now #booksky

My lovely friend hosted me at her restaurant to celebrate the re-release of my 1930s historical fiction about Broadway, VIVIAN IN RED. A local real estate agency supported me by promoting the book with a giveaway, too. This might be my new favorite author photo #booksky

I make six batches of candy for neighbors and family, send Christmas cards, and bake sugar cookies from scratch.

All of these things are optional. It helps to remember I'm choosing them, and I find these things meaningful. (And I can stop doing them whenever I want, if the work outweighs the joy.)

A new (new-ish, new to me) indie bookstore is always wonderful news. Happy to finally visit Orchard House Books! Bought some Christmasy romance and had a great talk with a friend over a very pretty coffee in a real actual mug

I designed this little corner so I could sit in this cozy chair and maybe film book/author content in this spot, too

And guess who uses it 90 percent of the time

The ebook of VIVIAN IN RED will be on sale next week starting Thursday at #Smashwords.. in case a dual timeline family saga filled with drama, mystery and love, in the world of 1930s Broadway, is your kind of thing

I LOVED WICKED 💚🩷

If the other half was done I’d have sat and watched it right then after a pee break

Also got to see it with my teenager 10/10 experience

I coach Odyssey of the Mind (IFYKYK , if you don’t, Google it) and my students are making paper mache. I printed out the PDF of Vivian in Red to proof it… and now I’m letting the kids use the pages as material

I usually have some bubbly when a book comes out. But I don’t have any (poor planning) and also I’m watching football which is more of a beer occasion. Anyway, cheers and Go Green

Welcome (back) to the world, Vivian… my dual timeline historical fiction about Broadway, full of mystery, family drama and love

So gratifying to bring back this out-of-print novel myself. I’ve always been so proud of Viv and Milo and the whole cast
