I wrote that thing you didn’t read. @storystudiochicago.bsky.social NIAY alum. 🇨🇦 in 🇺🇸 raising 🇪🇹. Writer, baker, painter, friend. I always accelerate through the turn, and some of my best friends are dogs.
This @thewriterscenter.bsky.social memoir workshop is one of the things I'm most looking forward to in 2025! We'll meet every other week and spend ~10 months writing together—working to establish the sustainable practice you need, generating and workshopping new pages, seeing your projects grow.
Plus, you recommended some real bangers! Just an excellent selection for a beginning reader :-)
@jodipicoult.bsky.social joining in on hilariously trolling a new booktok account as part of a very pure prank is my new happy place. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTY5SFan9/
Note: I will block every person who does the whole “RT if you agree” or “RT to say that <randomly popular sentiment” thing.
It’s a form of engagement hacking. It doesn’t really add anything. It allows bad people who have nothing to add accumulate large followings.
How to auto block MAGA users! Genius.
Some genuinely terrible people whining about the "block culture" here on Bluesky is how you know the block culture is working, keep blocking those genuinely terrible people, folks, soon the only people they'll be able to bother here is each other

3. Retweeting authors who posted about their work - selling a book, or having an essay accepted. Didn’t matter what - just being a stranger cheering for them, and boosting them algorithmically.
As digital footprints go, I like mine. And I am truly going to miss Writer-Twitter.
(1/2) I am manually deleting my Tweets, walking back through who I am on social media, and so far they break down like this:
1. Making fun of the Midwest, Fat Bear Week obsession, and being team Orca.
2. Snapping at mediocre white men bullying LGBTQIA+ people.
And …
The pressure of crafting the perfect ‘first post’ introduction is too much! Hi, bsky-ites. Happy to be here.
