Writer. Fighter. Bunny hugger.
Pushcart nominee currently working on two novels (querying one, writing the other) and a brown belt in kung fu. Like Liz Lemon, technically a modern-day cowboy. Previous publications at katiedepasquale.com
Supported my local library by buying books at their book sale today. So many good options, I don’t know which to read first! Guess I’ll add them to my already giant to-read pile….

@sgj.bsky.social’s The Buffalo Hunter Hunter hits hard right from the epigraph. Those who don’t know history….

Who else has read Dominic Nolan’s Vine Street so we can talk about how perfect the ending is?

This Baltimore saltbox is not playing, and I love it.

Now seems like a good time to reread Gregory Pardlo’s brilliant memoir Air Traffic, in large part about his father, a labor organizer and air traffic controller whose life was upended by the 1981 air traffic controllers strike, something I knew nothing about before this book.

More library books because why not and because I love #libraries. Mostly horror thanks to our current moment and recs from @amandagw.bsky.social and @talkscaredpod.bsky.social.

Ignoring the news to read Bunny and it’s got me flashing back to workshops past (though I was never in a program quite like what she describes).

My public library is the best - I put these on reserve over the last two days and they had them ready for me this morning. Wonder if I can read them all at once….

Fascinating to hear about the labor movement and how it informs our current political moment from @hamiltonnolan.bsky.social and @maximillianalvarez.bsky.social last night at @redemmas.org! Union leader Sara Nelson spoke too. Can’t wait to learn more from Nolan’s book, The Hammer.

I love going home and being surrounded by my parents’ library. Borrowed these two (one for me, one for my kiddo). Does anyone else have fond memories of The Westing Game? Hope it holds up!

My #FridayReads this week is for writers like me who are neither plotters nor pantsers: Lisa Cron’s Story Genius. Anyone else have favorite craft books?

What’s everyone reading this weekend? For me, it’s horror by @gabino.bsky.social and
@tananarivedue.bsky.social
with poetry to bring down my heart rate (she’s not on here, but check out Carolyn Oliver’s fabulous work!).
