I was a fully formed adult who remembers ANTM being on air. The early/mid-aughts were not some long-ago, old timey wild west. The race swapping, the way they spoke about girls' bodies, the absolutely inappropriate photo shoots- this doc makes it seem like it was normal then. It absolutely was not.

Hey y'all, if you're in central Ohio, come hang out at Worthington Pride. I'll be there from 1-5 with books, stickers, buttons, and candy. And history facts for anyone that wants to nerd out about Gay Berlin in the 1920s. #pride #pridemonth #lgbtqauthors #queerhistory

I've been working on a new thing, sort of Dr. Who meets The Midnight Library and I can't decide if fantasy is easier to write than historical fiction, because I am basically making it all up as I go, or if it is exponentially harder for the exact same reason. #writingcommunity #workinprogress

Not only is the government corrupt, not only does it feel like everything is falling apart and every aspect of American life is being destroyed, but my body said "Welcome to Perimenopause. Good luck, sucker." I've basically cried every day since January 1st. It's been a real joy. Cheers to 2025. 🥂

Sometimes your art isn't for everyone. Sometimes there's going to be a person that looks at the thing you've worked so hard on and say they hate it. But there are also people out there that will be changed by your art. That will love it so much, it will become part of them. Keep making your art. 💜

Some good news in Ohio. The ban on trans healthcare for minors was struck down as unconstitutional. The best part? The court’s decision was bc of Ohio’s Health Care Freedom Amendment, the Republican constitutional provision to undermine the Affordable Care Act. 😂😂😂 #protecttransyouth

My novel debuts in T-minus 80 days. It's going up on NetGalley in two weeks and my physical ARCs should be arriving at my house this month. And none of it feels real. I'm trying to figure out if posting about it once a day is being "too much." Do other authors feel that? #writersky #writingcommunity

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Excerpt from a public letter Roald Dahl wrote encouraging people to vaccinate their children.

Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything.

“Are you feeling all right?” I asked her.

“I feel all sleepy,” she said.

In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead.

The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was twenty-four years ago in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her.

On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunized against measles. I was unable to do that for Olivia in 1962 because in those days a reliable measles vaccine had not been discovered. Today a good and safe vaccine is available to every family and all you have to do is to ask your doctor to administer it.
