the time I interviewed Phoebe Waller-Bridge about Killing Eve

Interviewing Phoebe Waller-Bridge

If you had the chance to interview the writer of your favorite TV series, what would you ask? Two years ago, I found myself facing that enviable dilemma when...

An open letter, to readers, about Charity and Sylvia. I am very pained to feel the need to write this. #queerhistory #pride

Years ago my book "Arresting Dress" was featured in OFTV and it was honestly the highlight of my career ✨ Morgan Page is an absolute genius and the whole series is fantastic

there is in fact a craft to writing i did have a great time winging it though so i don’t mind that i was late to learn

Writers: what’s a solid piece of *craft* advice you wish you’d known sooner? Mine is this: when making writing decisions, always stop and ask yourself what is best for the SCENE. What are the scene’s goals? Does this sentence, this paragraph, this line of dialogue serve those goals? If not, fix it.

sad I can’t make it in person but look at this incredible line up with @jeannethornton.bsky.social @mayadeane.bsky.social @olivasthewriter.bsky.social

If you, like me, have Peacock for a limited time so you can watch the Olympics and Paralympics, give yourself the gift of watching We Are Lady Parts as many times as possible before you cancel your subscription. We Are Lady Parts. Just over and over again. Your life will improve.

thrilled to be included in this super smart and insightful article

I spoke to women (and one man) about what they find so hot about Heated Rivalry. "The main reason I read MM is I just absolutely cannot stand reading or watching women suffer at the hands of men – in any way, big or small, anymore... We, as women, can just watch this and relax.”

book piracy discourse but it’s not about this book or pirate?

San Francisco had a similar law (1867) that existed alongside bans on cross-dressing, indecency, and carrying baskets on poles through the streets - a common practice among many Chinese workers. then, as now, the policing of poverty, disability, gender, sexuality, and immigration went hand-in-hand

Here's a long thread on an issue dear to my heart. This Tuesday evening I’m doing an Intellectual Publics with Macarena Gomez-Barris on publishing. Like last year’s conversation with Denise Cruz, or the prior year’s with Racquel Gates, we will talk about how to find a publisher, turn a thesis... 1/

friends, i did it! i finished writing my killing eve book 🔪❤️ i haven’t finished a writing project this big in years, and i haven’t finished one this fun… ever? can’t wait to share all the secret bits soon #killingeve

i remember sobbing in the california state archives when i first read the hand-written notes of asylum doctors. i couldn't shake the feeling for days. no training, reading, or thinking that "i already knew" had prepared me for that. now i treat it like witnessing. awful, painful, and necessary too

Doing historical research isn’t just an intellectual enterprise; it’s emotional and embodied. I legit almost threw up earlier this morning while researching etymology related to the year 1712. If you’re a historian and/or do archival research, how do you handle the SHOCK of revelation?

Welcome to Bluesky. If you're a writer, don't forget to TELL US ALL ABOUT YOUR BOOK!

Upset is correct! We can still vote NO on the obscene tentative agreement , which our chapter union leadership were not informed about when the agreement was announced. They terms are unacceptable. Press accounts have been misleading and inaccurate.

i LOVE that I am 32nd in line for @jamiattenberg.bsky.social new book at the library ✍️❤️
