not an original thought but bears repeating: half of writing is just being allowed time to sit on your ass uninterrupted and think about things really hard until you puzzle them out, which doesn't look or feel like work at all. but it is!
tell me, what is it you plan to do with your eight wild and precious social media accounts
Ohhh, that's such a good book!! 🥰📚
Collaged photos. A man leans on a white rock retaining wall, his fly suggestively open. His upper body is a silhouette cutout of another image, ghostly and sensual. Within the cutout is part of a bare torso and arm, also leaning against the rock.

I’m gonna say it: Breadloaf and now Bouchercon superspreader events should be a big wake-up call for the writing community.
Are we going to continue infecting one another without regard for our health or the health of others?
Or are we going to demand community care?

From time to time, I post a quick roundup of recently published lit mags.
It isn't always easy to find out about new releases, so I’m always happy to be clued in, if you know of any.

I started drafting an outline for my first graphic novel last summer, and I finished writing the first draft yesterday. I’m super excited to start editing this story. My younger self would be happy to know I’ve returned to my love of graphic storytelling.

This is your evergreen reminder that you can support your writer friends (even if you're not into the kind of books they write) by asking your local public library to purchase their books. I can't speak for all writers, but I love libraries & love having my books in them!
I know that my presence on here should be different than on Twitter... but how?
