I have a new short story! It’s a standalone set in the world of my novels, featuring two side characters who have a steamy main character night. It’s available everywhere, including my direct Payhip store🥰 Books2read.com/collisionandcoincidence #BookSky #Romancelandia #WritingCommunity

I am so gone for this book. I’m on my third listen in a year’s time.

Grief is so weird. Do other people carry a version of someone long gone who grew up and grew old, like the real person didn’t get to? Like, when I miss him, I tell him things, and when I talk to him, he’s middle aged like me, not young like he was when he died.

Optimist: the cup is half full Pessimist: the cup is half empty Romance writer: The cup’s contents spilled across the floor as he swept the table clear to lay her on it like a feast.

Love the single mom trope in romance? books.bookfunnel.com/singlemomsin...

fuck. did you know if you change things early in the plot, later plot elements need to change, too? someone should do something about that

It’s winter holiday time, which means #macarons in my kitchen. These are pistachio, made from the fine pistachio flour I bought earlier this year for a different cookie recipe.

My weekly grocery run is quickly devolving into Cameron Diaz’s unhinged shopping trip in the holiday, complete with tossing random items in the cart to Ella Fitzgerald 🎄🛒🍫🧀 Happy holidays!

Congratulations MA! #FreedomtoRead bill with protections for authors now moves to the House! Call your MA reps! Great work @massaabb.bsky.social ! malegislature.gov/PressRoom/De...

Self-soothing with the Megan Follows Anne of Green Gables. I’ve read the books countless times. I’ve watched the two films over and over. Jonathan Crombie was one of my first crushes. And I still tear up seventeen minutes in when Matthew says, “You can talk all you like. I don’t mind.”

I have listened to it twice more since this post. I have other books on my ebook reader and in Libro, but I just want to wallow in this story

I have a terrible book hangover, and it seems hair of the dog is the only solution. I’ll be bingelooping the audio edition of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy until further notice 🎧📖 #booksky

Hi. My name is Cameron, and I’m addicted to worldbuilding at the expense of actually finishing a WIP #writingCommunity #romancewriter

This morning, a cashier I see often on my weekly Friday morning grocery trip said, « See you next week, » and that just about made my day ☺️

Someday, I will spell « protein » correctly on the first try, but today is not that day

Okay, #romancereaders, let’s talk male main character smells for a sec. I’m side questing and curious what your favorite combos are. Lean into the tropes with me.Surprise me. Sandalwood and leather? Bergamot and cedar? Clean laundry?

Another day, another sketchy AF Google history in the name of fiction #WritingCommunity #Romancelandia

I took a J-term class on Tom Stoppard’s play Arcadia, co-taught by a theatre professor/director and an advanced maths professor. It was incredible

I don’t talk about my day job a ton, but that’s honestly because I find it enjoyable. I like what we do, and I like my team and my place in it. This interview with our CTO highlights a lot of the reasons why.

New Yorkers: good luck today and remember not to vote for or even slate anyone who is a known sex pest

NYC friends: this poor dog was almost on his freedom ride out of the pound when his foster didn't show up on him. He's now in danger of being put down. Do you have space in your home and heart to adopt him? ❤️ Also, lots of animals at this NYC shelter who need a home. nycacc.app#/browse/225834

Yet Luigi launched a thousand hand-wringing op-eds from the chattering class. Makes you think

The other day I followed a Procreate art tutorial to make a cute little goldfish and the whole time I was singing 🎶🎵Le Poisson Steve🎶🎵 Even though mon poisson n’a pas des bras ou des jambes

Louder for the trolls in the back. LLMs were trained on stolen human work. They don’t know anything. They are unregulated, unrefined regurgitation machines.

Here, @npr.org, I fixed it for you: A former Minnesota House speaker and her spouse were assassinated, and a state senator and his wife were wounded in and assassination attempt early Saturday at their homes near Minneapolis, officials said.

Born in 1975, I represent the one generation of women who had rights. I’m fighting for my daughters and granddaughters. Fuck this shit.

Let me just say, the nuclear block wasn’t in my toolbox until BlueSky, and now I employ it on all platforms like garlic or vanilla, recklessly, joyfully, with my whole heart and absolute disregard for the recipe.

First pick up from my CSA today. 3 quarts of absolutely gorgeous strawberries 🍓🍓🍓 These berries are perfectly ripe and they smell amazing! I almost ate a whole quart in the car on my way home from the farm!

Just a reminder that none of us are safe until all of us are safe. Same applies for freedom.

LAPD when they think nobody is watching

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

I am sad to leave to the Tee Lasso party, late though I was. I haven’t cried at a series finale since Schitt’s Creek. I know they’ve announced another season, but really. That was a lovely way to finish the show.

Something pretty because joy is an act of rebellion.

This is my dog. He’s basically 23 pounds of codependence with fur.

Truth.

Something pretty, because joy is an act of resistance.

Today I learned that pain in and around a single joint is referred to as monoarticular pain. Is my singular sore knuckle arthritis, a mild injury, perimenopause or something spicier? Tune in to find out!

Folks, Please don’t lose sight of the fact that the President is supposed to serve the American people. Not his pockets and his ego. We’re so deep in the mire that we’re losing even the memory of normal. Peanut farm, people. Peanut farm.

Our current president is severely mentally unwell, and the media needs to cover it now.

-A living wage -Guaranteed healthcare -The right to join a union -The right to vote -The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family -The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence These are the foundations of real freedom.
