Three Things About Emmy Crawford is six months old! If you need a break from the news cycle and are after hope, humor, and romance + a hate letter to health insurance -- this one's for you. :) #booksky

First it was postponed. Now it is canceled. 86 children/19,000 adults HAVE DIED FROM FLU THIS YEAR. 430,000 people have been hospitalized. THIS IS ANTI-VAX LUNACY. Meanwhile, HOW ARE YOUR GROCERY PRICES? #BelieveInScience #VaccinesWork www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Here is the pre-RFK vaccination schedule for your kids. Please download it before he is confirmed and changes/deletes it. Give it to your pediatrician and say this is the schedule you want your kids on. Making this my pinned post.

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue. TWENTY. As in, they call that getting slammed. So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind. TWENTY is a lot.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's intentional. They're calling it "flooding the zone." The intent is to overwhelm and exhaust us so we can not effectively resist. Something simple you can do right now now is to make sure to take breaks and rest.

I've got a Nebraska Book Award winning book that is also a banned/challenged book in Texas. Since our government has recently declared book bans "not a thing," it's more important than ever to support authors with banned books! Visit Pen America to find a list of those affected. #bookbans #booksky

This problem is first world AF but today I'm missing the old days of the bird app, where I first built my writing community- which honestly gave me every writing thing I have today. Now, my community is all piecemeal and split up and I don't know where to find my people anymore. #booksky #writers

On this day I want to remind you that this book exists. It's got a bunch of powerful, smart women in Washington D.C. It's got romance, including a lot of verbal sparring & almosts. It's got a not-very-subtle hate letter to the American health insurance system. It's got what you might need. #booktok

The novel Three Things About Emmy Crawford by Allison L. Bitz, on top of a photo collage background that includes two girls, a lectern and microphone, a scone and a coffee, a map of Washington D.C., hands reaching for each other, and a row of prescription pill bottles.

One thing before tomorrow: Use your local libraries. Get your card. Borrow books, manga, films, audios, ebooks. Recommend titles for purchase (usually online). Attend promoted activities. Fill out those "How are we doing?" questionnaires. Tell your kids that libraries are good. They are. 📚
