I was a shop steward for National Association of Letter Carriers. That was always the 1st thing to tell ppl. If they want you to do something you think is against the law/contract, ask for it in writing, signed & dated. It is amazing how often management backs off instead of putting it down on paper

Financial statement today reminded me HOW GREAT IT IS when folks request that their libraries acquire books. 😍
Seriously, if you want a totally free-to-you way to help an author, submit a request with your local library. Those sales help us so much, in whatever format.

Next, Jonathan Allan reminds us of the history of banning romance books in the USA, focusing on a book he notes as a precursor to blockbusters and bonkbusters: "Forever Amber, Censorship, and Popular Romance Studies." (2/3)
Forever Amber, Censorship, and Popular Romance Studies | Journal of Popular Romance Studies
It seems as if censorship is back in vogue. Truthfully, it never really left. I am preparing to teach a course called “Censorship and Obscenity,” and while the course is not focused on popular romance...

Normalize letting adults enjoy being themselves. Even if that means having a non-traditional job or gig or hobby. Let them be happy, this world is already a steaming dumpster fire, at least let us have joy.

My insurance company denied medication my Dr. prescribed for me. I was able to fill it and pay out of pocket at @mcuban.bsky.social's Cost Plus Drugs. It was super easy and super inexpensive. Thank you Mark for caring more about helping us than feeding your ego. 🙏🙇♂️

My friend’s cat comes and visits me almost everyday. I feel like the universe sends her to make sure I leave my depression den and get some sunshine. She’s a sweetie.

I have three problems.
As an author: Notebooks
As a crafter: Yarn
As a human: The willpower to resist a sale on either of them.

My most recent failure: I haven’t written a single word in over a month. My brain just said “no” and I’ve had zero motivation to actually write.
But that’s okay. Because there’s obviously something I need to work on in my head before I can move on to writing.

Just saw a post from an author (I forget who, sorry!) talking about not being afraid to celebrate success. I agree but I also think one of the problems with social media is that people only post the good stuff, and it creates an unrealistic narrative. Sharing our failures is just as important. 🧵

I guess at some point I should share what I actually do. I write PNR (werewolves (and all kinds of shifters), witches, vampires, gods, immortals, & ghosts). With a mix of strong women, lore, mythology, sarcasm, sass, pop culture, and alpha males. They may be shorter books, but they are big stories!

Now is a good time to mention that Marvel has a trans fem superhero named Escapade, whom I co-created with @brandtandstein.com. she's currently kicking all kinds of ass in the Avengers Academy comic on Marvel Unlimited, and it sure would be great if folks were reading and sharing her adventures.

I have 5 of my cats sleeping on my bed and if I so much as breathe wrong I’ll wake them up and pandemonium will ensue. Which means I’m stuck in bed for the foreseeable future.
This is Sylvie (short for Silvara the silver dragon, IYKYK), as sweet as she looks, she is trouble.
