If you hear me screeching, it's because the audiobook for A Ghost of Spring is officially in process! Which is exciting, but also, she's going to find every last typo. 🤣🤣

“I already snooped, it's not her. Her cursive is massive and she can actually spell. Plus, she doesn't have a computer. And before you ask, I also checked out the cop downstairs.” Lee snorted. “You just have an innate mistrust of the police.” I turned, waving my hand toward Officer Crane. "Duh."

Gerri Bellafini is dead, but that hasn't dimmed her sarcasm or her love of a good mystery. Being nosy is way easier when you're a ghost.

The amount of bullshit we've been subjected to in the last 10 years has had such a profound effect on our collective psyche, that if The Walking Dead was made today, everyone would throw themselves off a roof and be done.

I was the featured author last night at Writers Can Read and sold 6 books after the event! I read from Playing Dirty, the scene where Grace takes the detective to meet Mamaw and her 30-06. They all wanted to know what happened next! Today, I am insufferable.

#BookSky #YAMystery Gerri's like, dead, but her twin sister Pansy can still see and hear her. Together, they join the Perth Paranormal Society and find a few mysteries while they're searching for answers. A Shade of Winter is free in KU & available in hardcover, paperback, and now on Audible!

Employees of a system built on exploitation did not expect to be included in the exploitation. #leopardsatemyface #Politics #News

A news article displays a photo of a person in a dark face covering and blue jeans being led away by two heavily armored officers in tactical gear, one wearing a gas mask, on a city street. The article's headline reads: "ICE Employees Vent on Reddit, Saying They're Not Getting Paid and Still No Insurance Despite Promises," with the photo caption stating "ICE in action in Portland."

I've been sent video from the end of the ICE raid at the Zipps on 32nd and Shea. It shows protesters -- on the sidewalk, impeding no one -- getting drive-by maced by an ICE agent from a truck as it rolls away down the road. Hard to see how such tactics are justifiable.

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this. Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Compost is great for growth, but to make good compost, every so often it has to be rolled. All the deep, dark shit has to be scraped off the bottom and brought up into the light, to get air, where it can be broken down and assimilated back into the mix. So goodbye 2025, consider yourself rolled.

‘Parishioners excused.’ That’s how bad it is. A Catholic bishop lifted the obligation to attend Mass because ICE might raid the church. Mass isn’t required “if a member of the faithful has a genuine fear of immigration enforcement actions.” The feds should be ashamed. Terrorizing the faithful.

Hear me out, if #TaylorSheridan is looking for S2 material, a Landman/Lioness cross-over where ICE detains the entire oil crew and Lioness has to go fight a facist regime (ours) to free them.

An Echo of Autumn “Hey, watch where you’re going!” “Oh my god, I am so sorry,” I said, placing one hand over my mouth as I stared in horror at the man in front of me. A super cute man with floppy hair and dimples. For once, I was at fault in a collision, and it had to be with this guy. #WIPSnips
