Copyedits, commas, timelines, and cocktails, oh my! There are less than 4 months until the launch of my weird, fun, creepy detective novel, Swallowtail, and I’m spiraling.

YES!!!!

Never thought that in season 3 of Yellowjackets I’d start liking Misty the best. Is it just me?

I just grabbed a copy from this fabulous writer. You should too!!!

Jason Powell tackles Fear, Fire, and Fiction in debut novel No Man’s Ghost Debut author and full time firefighter discusses his approach to craft .

Delighted to share Cara Wood's interview with Jason Powel about his debut novel, No Man’s Ghost, that burns from the inside out. It’s full of the drama and pressure of a high stakes job with a refreshingly tender emotional story at its heart.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump’s Brain Failures and More Great News People pay tribute to George Floyd, a Mississippi anti-Trump protest, DeSantis gets booed by large crowd, and more

Jasmine Crockett went on TV to call out Trump’s West Point tirade. She said it should lead Republicans to “question his mental acuity & whether he's equipped to serve mentally. We know he's not qualified, but this is just deplorable.”
Why are media & GOP afraid of him?

I am so sorry to hear that. Woolrich has such a beautiful poetic writing style. Disappointing that it’s racist.

The entire nation should protesting this utterly unwarranted, unprecedented, & probably illegal on-going attack on a university. It's right out of the authoritarian playbook. It's an assault on possibility free speech, free thought, & dissent.
Fascism is coming small step by small step, not at once.

Someone working at Home Depot just approached me, a total stranger, to tell me how much he regretted his vote for Trump. 401k down, worried about his job, no raise, can’t retire. And it’s just beginning.

Your moment of not gloomscrolling

For a minute I believed this…

Bankrupt running a casino. Pause in awe for a minute and absorb the enormity of that then marvel at the speed and efficiency with which the wealthiest and most influential country on earth has been dismantled to be sold for parts. #OrangeMonday

Interesting idea. I agree blue states should do it too.

Don't be afraid to call things by what they are. MAGA is a terrorist organization, ICE is a secret police force conducting Ethnic Cleansing, Elon Musk is an oligarch, and Trump is a foreign backed coup d'état figurehead. This is not an administration, this is a regime, and your country is occupied.

This episode of White Lotus was brilliant.

Time for some Irish bread!

It is my TV comfort food

Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes
