Learning the writing biz. For my book, The Sovereign Seed, I dumped 40K words in a weekend. Writing was my 1st goal; funding is my 2nd. Right now, business trumps art. A whiteboard maps the mess in my head. Thoughts need a partnership with my hands. #WritingCommunity #BookSky #AmWriting

Putting a mixtape together for The Sovereign Seed- trying to capture the mood of The Bird and the Baby. Heavy 90s noise, spiritual wreckage, recover, mythic dirt. Think Smog, Jane's Addiction, Spoon- the sonic equivalent of that green cardigan. Drop a track. www.stephanieharrisonauthor.com
Here is what might be a radical idea: stop posting about, reading posts about, and giving attention to toxic leaders, people, and ideas. Has complaining helped so far? If everyone just decided to ignore them for five minutes they might shrivel up and go away.
When Rage Against the Machine screams, "Rally 'round the family, with a pocket full of shells," surface listeners only hear gunfire. They miss the architecture. In a Southern Gothic world, a "pocket full of shells" is the heavy combines and tractors of institutional power. 👇#RATM #missourihistory
Most people probably don't know Monroe County, Missouri exists. I grew up there. #missouri #writersofbluesky
Does God shop on Amazon? Because I accidentally ordered two identical vacuums last week. I felt stupid until today, when I completely broke the first one before I could even initiate the return. Divine intervention or just prime logistics? 📦🙏 #adulting #amazonfinds #dogsky
