it turns out, in the downfall and segmentation of social networks, I default to going silent entirely, lurking on the timelines, and never posting a single thing ever.

I get why journalists are reticent to try to port a following to a new platform—I was, and I still post my work everywhere—but if your career is predicated on people clicking your links and engaging with your work, this site is the only one not actively working against that.

not being able to talk about or link to my substack newsletter without getting shadowbanned was, as a writer, one of the worst changes on that old site

me but with those super sour gushers on tiktok

i don't know who needs to hear this, but don't stop making art

I was a huge fantasy reader as a kid and only got back into it in adulthood thanks to Sarah J. Maas 😅

But I was gifted Mistborn and it’s on my list! He’s such an impressive writer. I’ll hold onto those hopes with you too!

hi friends!!! 👋

i'll go first: i'm a BIG book nerd + have read 60 books this year so far. i mostly read romance, literary fiction, + fantasy with the occasional non-fic.

my fave reads of this year:
• such a bad influence - olivia muenter
• the dead romantics - @ashleyposton.bsky.social
• annie bot - sierra greer

while we're all joining these new platforms, can we all agree to encourage posting outside your niche + letting humans be interesting humans?

we're all so multifaceted + unique – that's what makes us interesting!

what's one thing you've always wanted to create more content about?

I prefer setting the bar incredibly low, so people have a chance to unfollow early if they want 😂

went to sleep at 11:30 last night… did I miss something?

I’m so excited to melt my brain with this

I believe @jesszafarris.bsky.social could make this happen

those are my emotional support glitches

this was the joy we all needed

if I won the lottery I wouldn't tell anyone but there would be signs

with every new social network I join, I get farther away from marketing thought leadership and closer to my true content niches:

books, swifties, and new england life 😌

hiiiiii april!!!! 👋🏻🫶🏻
