#WriterShareWednesday

The update is that the chat is not happening tonight because Bluesky can't get its shit together and everything is just. Crashing out every other time I try to do something

So those convos will have to wait for next week

...On second thought, Bluesky is currently crashing the fuck out and I don't have the patience to deal with it today so there will be no #WeeknightWriters chat tonight

But I will remind you to sign up for our newsletter so you can continue hearing about our events even if this place implodes

We'll see 😅 it's been in and out all day
