Seeding chaos for my future self by placing lots of books with long wait times on hold at the library. No way will they all show up at once, no way...

I've noticed people using "at your earliest convenience" when they actually mean "ASAP but I'm trying to be nice about it." Joke's on you, guy, I'm taking you at your word.

Home alone, making good choices (bowl of cereal with whipped cream)

"Wake up my sleepy mouth-breather, it’s 4:01 a.m. and I feel chatty! I might be small but I’m a warm-blooded lunatic and I’m right outside your bedroom window."

Wake Up, You Lazy Skin Sack. I’m a Songbird and It’s 4 A.M.

“I love each new day, what it might bring, the possibilities, the joy of the unknown. One thing is certain, though, and that’s the yelling I will do out of m...

attention all essayists! @splitlipthemag.bsky.social wants to see your best work. we publish essays under 2k in our memoir section. we are omnivorous, but i would love to see micro memoir, interesting forms, joyful essays, graphic and image/text work. but don’t count out your lovely quiet essay!

Is your book even literary if nothing in it is "limned"

My god, the question marks? That everyone puts at the end of every sentence now? Make me crazy???

Seriously though. So many spiders.

All houses are filled with spiders, not just mine, right?

Jfc, Microsoft Word, I never want to save to OneDrive, ever! Lay off it already.

Where do the fruit flies hang out when there is no glass of wine?

I had a lot of fun writing about north by north/west. Many thanks to the brilliant @iloveyoudaniel.bsky.social for the fantastic edits that made this review so much better!

I don't care how many times you read that email draft, it has a typo.

My microwave is looking good.

How do people without drafts to work on get any chores done? Anyway, vacuumed the car this morning.

DC residents have been refusing to call that airport anything but National for almost thirty years, we certainly can refuse to call that arts center anything but the Kennedy Center for three

Something so eerily cynical about suggesting we address the loneliness crisis with VR headsets for seniors and AI therapist-bots for teens.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

Wow, in my end-of-year exhaustion I really needed this beautiful reminder of how our work "seeks to emphasize the joy of discovery in a time when productivity rules supreme"

The end of Grey's Anatomy season 1: a perfect 60 seconds of television.

Being a human person is so embarrassing, just all these emotions about sunsets and traffic and loneliness and snacks

No greater thrill than suggesting a purchase to the library and having them approve it within hours.

Husband went camping with friends and left me a homemade pizza, a pile of cookie dough, and a bottle of wine. So yeah, the perfect man does exist.

Cannot wait for this wild ride!!!

I’m thrilled to announce that my debut memoir, HOLY MOTHER!, will be published in fall 2027 by @chelseagreenbooks.bsky.social. If you love books about spiritual rabbit holes or cults, this is for you. Endless thanks to my incredible agent @lmscovel.bsky.social, who made this dream a reality.

Hmm, work on draft or drink wine and order books? How's a girl to...lol, who am I kidding, orders placed!
