Three women sit at a table. The woman in the middle (Courtney Maum) speaks into a microphone. The women to her left and right look at her. There are white walls behind them.

“If you’re teaching someone how to write a beautiful sentence but not how to make a living, you’re setting them up for failure…It might be crass, but the conversations should start from the socioeconomics of it and stem out from there.” Courtney Maum at #AWP25 #WritingCommunity #BookSky

Happy new year! Wishing you comfort, contentment, and lots of time spent with the ones you love.

A good name for a beefcake calendar of firefighters would be Thirst Responders

Absolutely the way to go.

I’m wearing a hand knitted jumper of the ‘this is fine’ meme. It features an orange dog sat in a blue building which is on fire, yet the dog appears unphased

Debuted a new jumper today, to the amusement of some of my colleagues 😅 7 months of knitting but imo it was worth it 🔥

I must be crossing some Rubicon of impending middle age, because the Black Friday purchase I’m most excited about is new kitchen appliances. The fridge makes ice all the time! Without us having to say a prayer and spin around widdershins!

The WPLS is excited for 2024. Put us on your calendar for January, February, & March. We take a curation vacation in April, but we’re back in May.

Another starred review for 1000 Words—from Bookpage!

Reminder: Your friends want books for the holidays. Lots and lots and lots of books. You also want books. You should probably buy yourself a book while buying books for your friends. Bored? Read a book! Got a wobbly table? Fix it with a book! Missing shingle? Nail in a book! Gas leak? You can <boom>

Just once I would like to have a normal cold instead of some rogue germ hell-bent on total system collapse.

Worked a lot better than I expected, frankly

A bowling lane built of pallet wood, with chaotic knocked-over bowling pins and a small pumpkin amid the wreckage

It turns out you can go bowling with pumpkins.

Having to cover up your costume with a boring coat: a deep childhood grievance

Hope your kid’s costume goes with snow boots…

Autumn in Nashville:
Saturday - 80 degrees
Sunday - 75 degrees
Monday - 46 degrees

It's especially weird because women are so EMOTIONAL and our inability to control our emotions makes us so UNSUITABLE for so many important professions.

We can't be president b/c we might start nuclear armageddon while in a fit of PMS & yet we regularly manage to... not shoot up public spaces.

Archer, Buffy, Community, The IT Crowd

Tonight (10/25)! @taylorbyas.bsky.social, Aaron DeLee, & @sofiafeycreates.bsky.social join the WPLS!

Housing people is cheaper than treating the effects of people being unhoused

Free school lunches are cheaper than the consequences of children being hungry

Free medical care is cheaper than the costs of people being sick

Universal Basic Income increases productivity and makes people happy
