I finished Uruk by #JamesZwerneman in one sitting and I absolutely loved it!Eagerly awaiting book 2!
It has shades of The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini mixed with Avatar the Last Airbender
The optimism & hope that things can (and should!) be better feels so poignant right now

My thoughts are with our Jewish neighbors after another horrifying antisemitic attack, this time in Boulder. Hate has no place in our country.

I don’t know a soul who’s not been battered
I don’t have a friend who feels at ease
I don’t know a dream that’s not been shattered
Or driven to its knees
Oh, but it’s all right, it’s all right
For we lived so well so long ...

It always feels weird to talk about my work, but I want to put this out there:
I'm writing a book about this heroic group of Japanese Americans, who taught Japanese to members of the U.S. Navy in Boulder, CO during the height of anti-Asian discrimination in the U.S. in WWII.

Just a reminder: having a functional moral compass right now is going to make you feel bad all the time; don’t mistakenly hate yourself for that.

All those science fiction and YA dystopian books I read as a kid didn’t prepare me for how mundanely cringe the current authoritarian power grab is. no style, panache, or sauce. Just a bunch of morally bankrupt weirdos with awful fashion sense and outdated troll humor.

The new Deluxe Edition books are so pretty! And honestly it seems like a really good time to give The Hunger Games a reread.
