My #writing buddy, Scooter. Lives life to the fullest with no regrets. Destroyer of tissue boxes, mud rolls after a bath and horker of dropper food.

Had the cool experience of going to a private observatory on PI day and they used a seestar camera to take a picture of the Orion Nebula while we were there.

Wowza! Life came fast there for a while trying to get back to my computer to do what's fun- making up stories! Anyway, here is our one eyed snaggle tooth queen who keeps all the other dogs in line!

Detainees at Florida’s “Alligator Alcatraz” are on a hunger strike over what they call inhumane, dangerous conditions. Some haven’t eaten in 10 days. One of them, Pedro Hernández, was hospitalized and still refuses food until they are treated with dignity.

UnitedHealthcare is raising premiums for policyholders in New York and Washington after spending $9B on stock buybacks last year. Healthcare companies are robbing you blind to enrich their executives and shareholders. This is why we need Medicare for All.

How's the #amwriting crowd today? I worked on a query letter for #mg #horror I'm only 1/3 done with. Seems to take me forever to nail down a good one!

Yes. She will read and give you her thoughts on the project. She's read on to ya and the occasional synopsis. But she's 13 do it's not a developmental edit- just a teen giving her opinion.

Back in the Twitter days my daughter would read for people their first chapters up to the first five for $5 a chapter. She would like to do that again to earn money for the draft horse she still wants. If you want a 13yr olds perspective on your #mg or #ya let me know and we can connect. #amwriting
