I am listening to The Memoir Project by Marion Roach Smith. At the end, she suggests writing (as she does) 5 pages/day, 5 days/wk. My goal is 300 words (roughly 1 page)/day, 5 days/wk. What’s yours? #writingcommunity

I'm officially open for queries! I'm specializing in mystery, suspense, thrillers, crime fiction, and upmarket fiction with a sharp edge. I'm drawn to high-stakes narratives, complex characters, and stories that refuse to be put down. More on my website: t.co/d6MEt6LMii

We just received word that the DOJ has begun removing data detailing criminal charges and convictions related to Trump loyalists. This started with records from the January 6th insurrection, but additional records are now being erased. We will keep you updated once we have more info.

At 16, Quinn wrote a computer virus to get revenge on cyberbullies. At 26, she built a propaganda engine that radicalized a nation. Now the FBI wants her to undo the damage. She knows how to change minds-but can she change the right minds-before it's too late? THE PERSUADABLES #Questpit #W #A #T
