Massie: "I don't think the problem is that our elections aren't secure because we control the House, Senate, White House, and to some degree we control the Supreme Court. So I ask my Republican colleagues, why are you complaining about election fraud? We won all the damn elections!"
I've historically been a little shy about doing podcasts, but I had such a great time talking to Saffron Asteria about all things SOMETHING OF A CALLING. And by "all things" I mean the world, the environment, evil, writing stuff, etc. Check it out here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=19e5...

Trump uses the Constitution as his personal diaper, then tries to make the nation's 250th birthday about himself. Then there's the shameful theft of millions of our taxpayer dollars, while he keeps lining his pockets. And the GOP & SCOTUS just kiss ass and hand the country over to a madman.
Back from the hospital and my 997th colonoscopy. Maybe it's only been 25, I've lost count. 😂😭
You know, having an autism diagnosis explains a LOT about why I've always hated stories that center on a main character telling a lie -- from sitcoms to detective mysteries to thriller novels...it makes me crazy...😵💫
Less than 3 months until SOMETHING OF A CALLING hits shelves, but you can pre-order the gorgeous, sprayed-edge hardcover from @barnesandnoble.com now! #BNPreorder www.barnesandnoble.com/w/something-...
Good morning from Mama and twin babies! I have confirmed, by the way, that I have two mama does coming by regularly - this one, and one who may be her mother (with a fawn of her own, that was born here!).
I bought a pole saw and just pruned a tree -- yes, I'm a 5'1" badass homeowner. 😂
Behold the hardcover edition of SOMETHING OF A CALLING in all its beauty. 😍 Coming Sept. 15 from @blackstonepub.bsky.social (available for preorder from everywhere you buy books)!
For any new followers who might not know: Yes, the children's book featured in BABY TEETH (and DEAR HANNA) exists as a real book! And it's adorably creepy. 😁
Fun fact: We published a book for younger readers in 2024. First depicted in BABY TEETH, a smash-hit novel for adults, My UnderSlumberBumbleBeast by @zojestage.bsky.social is fully illustrated by J.E. Larson. Get it. www.amazon.com/My-UnderSlum...
Stokercon + Being on the Spectrum = A Beautiful Ordeal... I tried to put it into words: zojestage.blogspot.com/2026/06/stok...
Stokercon + Being on the Spectrum = A Beautiful Ordeal
2026 marked the third time I attended Stokercon, but the first time I attended while embracing my reality of being on the autism spectrum. ...

I passed an adulting milestone today and purchased my first appliances: a refrigerator and a dishwasher. 😂😭 It really was NOT a dream come true...
As a shy person on the spectrum, Stokercon is so intense it qualifies as an "ordeal"... Yet I just bought my ticket for next year. 😂
This Stokercon pic is for @shortwavebooks.bsky.social -- my book GOOD GIRL will be available next year!
Be jealous...I scored the best stuff from Sarah Langan! I'm so excited to read this book...and look at this stuffy!! 😍
For good measure, I got a COVID booster ahead of Stokercon...I don't want you people making me sick. 😂
Big box of swag, ready to mail to Stokercon!! See you next week! (BTW, I'm really too shy to approach anyone so if you see me please say hello!!)
One of my dreams/goals as an author was to have a book with sprayed edges... Achievement Unlocked! ❤️ Behold the hardcover edition of SOMETHING OF A CALLING! Available Sept. 15. Preorder from wherever you like to buy your books! @blackstonepub.bsky.social
The Trump regime doesn't have a single redeeming quality. Pure evil.
I'm having a great mail day today...in part because these little lovelies arrived! 😍
All right, here it is - all the places you can find me at StokerCon. I'll also be milling around, attending some panels, possibly being a wallflower... see you there?? Link in bio for more info & Sched links
