Last night I planted an olive tree at Gracie Mansion with Palestinian families from Gaza. May peace be our future.

Just finished the audiobook for A Trade of Blood by Robert Jackson Bennett. Gotta sit with it and sit with it. Damn. Highly recommend. The narrator for the audiobooks in the entire series is excellent, by the way.

I'm supposed to be writing, but... I think my weekend is about to turn into "do some quilting and nostalgia-watch the GameCube speedruns" weekend. Because damn: 25 years is a long time. And the GameCube era was such a good, good time to be a gamer.

I hate that we have let the nastiest racists on earth define and redefine our language. From "woke" to "DEI." Trump's policies are not anti-DEI. They are racist. US firms did not abandon DEI policies. They fired competent black women in droves on the basis of race and sex.

Read this on SFWA today, but I have a question for authors who maybe do this, but also publish traditionally: how are y'all publishing potential chapters of your WIPs on Patreon (or Substack) and not getting into trouble with first publication rights and yadda yadda? Super curious. 1/2

It was such a joy and privilege to read Anaïs' work last year at CW. Getting her to Viable Paradise so that even more people get the chance is imperative. If you are able to contribute, please support this very worthy and wonderful author and her journey.

It's such an honor to be in @fiyahlitmag.bsky.social a second time. What makes me most proud about this story is that I wrestled with it & used my struggle to teach my GrubStreet and StoryStudio Chicago students. The vulnerability to try, fail, and struggle out loud served as a powerful tool. (1/2)

Joining the collective heartbreak & unending deep gratitude to @davaun.bsky.social & team for FIYAH. I celebrate FIYAH’s accomplishments and contributions, mourn our loss of such a vital market, and hopefully await its return. I’m so grateful to FIYAH for publishing Didn’t Earn It back in the 2024.

Pausing my social media sabbatical to say to the writing community that if there aren't AT LEAST 3 short stories and 4 novel chapters with "Bonnet down, legs up" as a title, I will be SEVERELY disappointed in y'all. (Big kudos to the producer who wrote it and the editor who approved.)

When this is over. All over. And it will end: We need talk about the restoration of the humanities. Pushing back the pendulum after this 30(+)-year swing. My love to every theater kid, dance kid, music kid, art kid, etc (and those who facilitate what it takes to bring their dreams to reality.)

I didn't know this story and I will sit with my unsettled spirit for the rest of the day. There is the reminder in this article that the United States Supreme Court did not ban the execution of children in this country until 2005. EJI is an extraordinary organization and I'm so grateful for it.

please remember that no matter how many “ICE is losing in MN” articles you read today, there is still a very real, urgent, ongoing crisis in Minnesota. people need food and they need rent money. that has not changed.

Yep. I was there. That shit suuuucked. Kids were in preschool (hint: they just... didn't go to school that winter), husband rode the commuter rail every day (hint: the trains were... never on time... still are never on time). I am not convinced I fully survived with my sanity, but... I did survive.

The National Guard is still patrolling DC, carrying handguns & long rifles, patrolling vibrant community spaces in packs to intimidate residents, especially Black residents, of the city. Keep that in mind as you see the videos of them handing out pizza & coffee in MN.

Yep. I’m in a well-funded suburban district and they are reading excerpts of literature in a textbook rather than full works. I listen to novels in the car and normalized audiobooks for my teens. We need to talk about the textbook industry as much as we need to talk about general curriculum policy.
