My friend Kat's husband has cancer and has started a GoFundMe to help aide in keeping their family afloat. They have two young kids at home and a small farm to maintain and this diagnosis has really blindsided them. Any help you could provide would be SO appreciated. Thank you! gofund.me/c0480f63a

Check out the adorable Lego Robin earrings my Gangxiety Writing Crew sent me for my birthday (it got a little lost on the way). Love you Jerusha, @kialeep.bsky.social,
S. Kaeth, and Hannah Kates. Get yourself a writing group that loves you and gets you this much.
Spent Wednesday evening with the tremendously talented and well-deserving @maria_tureaud at a book signing and author conversation about her latest release This House Will Feed. Had a wonderful time at her book signing and dinner with her and my sister Megan.

I truly apologize if you have ever sent me some kind of business prospect and I missed it, because I receive about 15 of these emails a day, and they’re getting lazier and lazier. But if you really want to read one of my books for your book club, I’ll do a visit!
