The richest 10% of Americans own roughly 87% of stocks.
The richest 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks.
It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

We have a president who took the nation into a war for reasons he never articulated, without a strategy for how to respond if Iran did the expected and closed the Strait of Hormuz, and without an exit strategy if Iran doesn’t surrender.
Trump is cornered, and he’s going stark-raving mad.
COMING SOON: Midnight at the Garnet Hotel character art!
Throughout the month of April, I'll be unveiling my new character art for my WIP 🖤
Which character are you most excited to see - Havelock, Carolina, or Slotle the Goblin?

CHARACTER ART REVEAL: PIMM
Though they started out as a side character, Pimm was definitely a reader favorite by the end of the trilogy.
A huge thank you to @samsilberberg.author for bringing Pimm to life!
Who would you like to see next?

It's been almost a year since TFTW was released and the Kingsport Chronicles trilogy completed. 💙 To celebrate, I'm commissioning new character art!
Which characters would you like to see have their own artwork?
#chcarterwrites #kingsportchronicles #lgbtqfantasy #characterart #booksky
People don't want data centers polluting their cities.
They don't want masked thugs terrorizing their neighbors.
They don't want warehouses being turned into ICE prisons.
They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home.
They want their basic needs met.
From @wired.com: “Federal records reveal ICE is secretly expanding into 150+ facilities across nearly every state — many near schools, medical offices, and places of worship… DHS asked the General Services Administration to hide lease listings and bypass normal procedures…”🤔
It's time for WIP Wednesday!
Meet Slotle.
An unusually small goblin, the most relatable thing about Slotle is that he's trapped at work, day in and day out. Except in his case, there's a spell involved.

When his intriguing new night clerk arrives, Havelock can feel the cobwebs slipping away for the first time in years. The flame of hope sparks, but is it enough to save either of them? (2/2)
Tricked into guarding a portal between the demon and human worlds, Havelock has been stuck in the same place for centuries. Building a hotel to hide the doorway has kept it from prying eyes, but hope of any change is in short supply. (1/2)
It's WIP Wednesday!
Meet the demon Havelock.

MIDNIGHT AT THE GARNET HOTEL is an upcomong historical fantasy novel full of curses, demons, self-discovery, romance, & mischievous creatures that appear only at night.
#chcarterwrites #midnightatthegarnethotel #booksky
The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.
Yesterday, over 30,000 people protested against ICE in below-zero temperatures. Amazing work, everyone. Minnesota strong. Tomorrow, there will be more of us.
Amazing! Way to go Minneapolis!
Now Carolina has found the perfect place to hide: Working as the night clerk of a luxury hotel in a bustling city.
But everything about the Garnet Hotel, from the enigmatic owner to the unusual nighttime occurrences, seems determined to pull Carolina into the world. (2/2)
For as long as she can remember, Carolina has tried to make herself invisible. On the run from a family curse always lurking just behind her, she's alone, exhausted, and developing strange abilities. (1/2)
Meet Carolina Blalock.

This is 100% FALSE. Immigration judges do NOT play any role in issuing administrative warrants. They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves. ICE’s own training materials say they can’t be used for a search of a home!
Here’s a blank warrant form. Note who signs it.
BREAKING: Immigration officers are asserting sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, a memo obtained by AP says.

Which quote did you get?

The Kingsport Chronicles is a sapphic Little Mermaid retelling, full of high-seas adventure, political intrigue, and a world rediscovering that magic truly exists.
