I was never on Xwitter. Came here as a first step towards leaving the ever-creepier FB, but I'm really pleased to have found you.

I would love that! Coming in from Vancouver, BC, possibly with the charming Wendy Barron and the fascinating Alan Yoshioka. Fingers crossed!!!

Whoo-hoo! I love Red Pencil. Hoping hard that I can make it IRL because it's one of the loveliest, friendliest, most interesting editing conferences I've ever been to and it's been a while for me. Would be great to meet you and to see Kristi, Pm, and other lovely {NW editors again. 🀞

Both words are so necessary! My local train station is the williwaw capital of the region, and all of us in Raincouver are very familiar with thunderplumps. Thank you!

This is delightful! Thank you, Susie. I've been a fan of yours for years from the wonderfully silly quiz show whose name I no longer remember (something Countdown something?) and it's lovely to find you here.

How could it be anything but! I didn't know we had weevils around here. Cute as a bug!

Not so keen on the eating the mom part, but since so many spider dads get eaten by the moms, I guess it all works out. And who am I to question spider mores and morals?

Even newer! So far, so very good.
