Meme of a man (labeled as "me") holding hands with his partner (labeled as various punctuation marks: comma, semi colon, colon, and period), but looking with interest/ desire at another woman walking by (em dash)
I'll never give up my em dashes, even if that means you think I'm AI

Another great manuscript! There are so many talented writers out there, and I'm really loving the genre bending risks people are taking. They're paying off!

Just finished "There Is No Antimemetics Division" and will be taking some time before writing my review. Initial impression: compelling premise, well-written, mind-bending, and thought provoking. It was a quick read and had a very different feel than other sci-fi work I've read recently.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."
Yes! I love how intimate and granular it is, despite its premise and scope. Haunting is a good word for that lonely, desolate feeling.
Who has read I Who Have Never Known Men? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Freshly lit handmade and hand carved wax candle (black with white cut outs in a geometric pattern) on a wooden surface in a dim room. There are books, plants, and crystals in the background.
I'm welcoming the emerging light and warmth of Imbolc with a candle I recently purchased while on a family trip to Sedona. It's hand carved, and I knew immediately it would be this year's candle. May this season bring gentle reflection and inspiration. 🕯💜

As an autistic person, I've always been fascinated by humanity, in large part because I didn't know how I fit into it. I've masked pretty effectively in the past, for sure, but it's been an adjustment figuring out my place since unmasking. I'm getting there.

I'm #betareading a manuscript for a new client and it's SO GOOD! One of the best I've read in a while. I really hope we get to see this story published and on bookshelves one day!

Spicy nice 😂 I love your sarcasm tumbler!!
Purple-green shift tumbler, etched with a dragon emerging from a book
My current most used tumbler is one I got from my SIL for Christmas. It's stickerless, but has this cool dragon coming out of a book. Can we see one of your favorite tumblers?
You get it

I am becoming water. This is a short reflection on lessons learned in 2025, and what I'm carrying with me into 2026. 💧

Tall pine tree forest with snow dusting the ground. Sunlight pours in overhead with blue skies and white clouds.
Happy Winter Solstice!
May we be grateful, and welcome the returning light ❄️✨️
Wooden porch swing sits on a deck overlooking the national forest in late autumn in Sedona, AZ. The sun is shining, leaves left on trees are orange and yellow, and a creek is babbling below.
I miss this view! I've been back home for a couple days now, and today I'll be opening up ECHO for the first time in weeks. I'm so thankful for the rest and rejuvenation our family trip brought. Mark my words, though: one day, I'll live where I can write with a view like this!

Girl walking in woods. The sun is peeking through pine trees and there's snow on the ground.
The kids and I enjoyed outside time today. We even had some snow flurries! ❄️🌲 This week is for resting, recharging and spending time with family so I can hit the ground running on drafting ECHO when we get home.

We don't get nearly as much rain as I'd like here in AZ, but when we do, I always stop to take photos. I've loved my walks this past week 🌧

sometimes to read a book of poetry is to be reminded that another person is much funnier and better at expressing their pain than you are
I've had wonderful experiences, both as a sensitivity reader and as a writer who's worked with sensitivity readers on my own projects. What are your thoughts on sensitivity reading?

Good morning. You're a writer even if you don't write today, tomorrow, this entire month. You're a writer because of the stories in your heart, even if you can't get them down for now. 💜
It was fun to guess! I hope your revisions go smoothly as you get to work on them!
I received my #10queries feedback email from @kelleyeditorial.bsky.social and it's so helpful!! I'm eager to get to this revision over the coming week so I can send out some queries. Thank you Hannah!! And thank you #RevPit for all you do to support writers 😘💜
A Deadly Education has been on my tbr for ages, and I'm not sure why! Maybe that'll be my next read...
Starting the day with chana masala, rice, eggs, and tea. I'm pretty sure that means today is gonna be a good one 🤤
I'm usually more of a rice, egg, nori, fish, and miso for breakfast person, but this is a close second.
What was breakfast for you today?
