Slight spoilers for Joe Hill’s King Sorrow: on p. 522, I had to stop and cry for about ten minutes before I could go on reading. I love this fucking book.

Dropped by the crunchy granola local grocery to see a delightful tableau of three older women literally cackling about how ugly the Cybertruck parked across the street was. They are so offline they didn’t even know it was actually named “Cybertruck” and that news set off another round of hilarity.

RFK is right about one thing: the actual healthiest thing is to be farting all the time, a little bit. They are calling it microfarting and it is taking natural food stores by storm this summer.

It’s really hard to find any drive for creativity and joy right now. The way I’m finding it is by writing a gleeful bi orgy between a quartet of characters stolen from Shakespeare and anyone who doesn’t like that can choke on it. That joyful enough? #writersky #lgbtqwriter #notaphase

I'm a disabled writer. I work part time, as much as I can physically manage, and rely on Medicaid to keep me functional enough to do so and care for family members. I'm not having a great day, along with millions of others who need Medicaid to survive. I try to stay positive here but... #writersky

Oh heavens. If you have a "literary magazine" but use AI art of blandly attractive, exclusively white women on the cover, you may want to rethink your business model. #writingcommunity #writersky

Ah to have the confidence of a blue jay! To sit in a tree and yell as loudly as I can, chin -- or beak -- up and crest held high. What a life.

“She knew now that it was love, not hate.” I guess romance novels haven’t changed as much as I’d imagined!
Some joy for your feed: I haven't read the actual story yet, but that looks like some enemies-to-lovers shit to me. (✿☉‿☉)

All of the above, because I’m terrible at either/or choices and will always go for a both/and. #pretendpanel
#pretendpanel, today I wanna know: are you sneaking people in your life into your stories, or are your characters like aspects of yourself?

Animals I have seen in the woods behind my place:
fox
fisher cat
deer (several)
And today a coyote.
My life is very boring and I enjoy it that way.

Most of my work makes me laugh, but this current short story is for April Fools and thus is extra goofy. Comedy and joy are crucial to my writing — even when I’m writing sad stories — because they are crucial to me and my well-being. I crack myself up and it feels good!
The answers to the last #pretendpanel question were beautiful! Such genuine humanity and soulful art coming out. Please hold onto that special spark at the heart of your writing 💖

I'm in one of those perplexing moods where I feel pretty good about my life yet when I sit down to write, my brain spins up the angst, and not in a creatively useful way.

I’m predicting it now: my future niche as an author is monsters being monstrous and the people who love them anyway. 😂
