i think it would be fun to introduce a JF-like character to the vanderpump universe. vanderpump uncs

a miserly grinchified dad would really be a great addition

MISS AMERICANA PSYCHO A serialized Tortured Poet Serial Killer novella

I'm working on a new horror novella and publishing it on Substack where Taylor Swift is a serial killer on the Eras tour. Enjoy installment one of billionaire pop princess. kateshapiro.substack.com/p/miss-ameri...

i had a dream that i met the weeknd and asked him why he is the most streamed artist in the world when he's so mid. so that's what's going on in my subconscious.

I have one for you.

Sue them.

literally my hell on earth

people only say "media literacy is dead" when someone doesn't agree with their specific take on said media

interesting alert: i read a that isn't about princesses. it was about drug dealing special ops soldiers. loved it + feel my perspective has changed (a sign of a good book) but the gnarly deaths made me want to go back to princesses.

here is the link yay: www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/730414...

I have a project ready to be published on Substack- it's a horror novella about Taylor Swift going American Psycho on the Eras Tour but, with recent events, I should probably just write a cooking blog instead. Who wants to make chilaquiles from a recipe written by the whitest woman alive????

If you ever want to devote your idle time to William the Conquerer and the Anarchy, write a book about television! It will make you flock to anything with a castle, hot knights, and pretty jewelry.
