SNAP has an outstanding ROI: every dollar we invest in SNAP generates $1.54 in economic activity. With SNAP cuts, people can’t continue to support these local grocers, so local businesses suffer. Everyone loses.

When a classical musician and a music producer become reluctant roommates, he becomes her first and she steals his heart. But her future is in Atlanta while his in New York. Can they hold on to the love of a lifetime without holding each other back? Coming Oct. 14. Pre-order now: amzn.to/45Pcn9j
Opposites Attract / Slow Burn First Time Romance. She's a classically trained musician. He's a record producer headed for New York. Reluctant roommates become friends, then lovers. Neurodivergent heroine. He's got a past, but he wants her to be his future.Phoenix

I’m a socially awkward chaos demon who never quite fits in. Not even in my own family. But I’m also an accomplished classical musician. So I’m moving to Atlanta to join the Black Diamonds Quartet—a group of talented, female musicians who feel like found family when my own feels so distant. I never expected to fall for my temporary roommate, Xachari Locke. He gets me in ways no one ever has. X is the first man I’ve been genuinely attracted to in a really long time. I trust him. And did I mention that I’m a twenty-nine year old virgin, and I want X to be my first?

Xachari


I’ve spent a lifetime atoning for the sins of my past. Now, I’m finally getting my big break. I’m moving to New York to be a record producer on the highly-anticipated comeback album of a hip-hop legend. Only, I never imagined that Phoenix Jefferson would turn my world upside down. She’s brilliant, funny, and brutally honest. Nix brings out a completely different side of me, and being with her feels like home.

That’s the problem.

Her future is here in Atlanta. Mine is in New York. How do I choose between the career I’ve always wanted and the woman I can’t live without?

SCOOP: Two weeks ago, the head of the CDC delayed publication of a report showing covid vaccine cut likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations by half. Now that report is no longer allowed to be published in CDC’s flagship scientific journal. My latest. 1/2 www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

CDC won’t publish report showing covid shots cut likelihood of hospital visits
The report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post.

As an author, I choose to include representation of neurodiverse characters and those who care for them. It offers representation to those communities and allows readers to walk in the shoes of those whose reality is different from our own. Full article: reeseryan.substack.com/p/happy-worl...

MADE FOR ME Featured on Book Riot List
After a few crappy weeks, an ice storm, and a snow storm and sick grandkiddo that changed our anniversary plans, things are beginning to look up. Undeterred, we found a way to make the most of our snowy weekend at home for our anniversary. Part of the fun was learning to salsa, courtesy of YouTube. This set me up to get ready for Benito Bowl (also known as the Super Bowl Halftime Show). And since I've been listening to Bad Bunny's album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS and practicing my basic salsa steps to BAILE INoLVIDABLE and KLOuFRENS, I was ready to go.
