Meet two of my WIP’s supporting characters: an abandoned English sheepdog named Strawberry, and a sentient Underwood No. 5 typewriter named Mabel. 😊 #booksky #wip #writing

Y’all can pry these em dashes and semicolons from my cold, dead fucking fingers.

Basic reading comprehension reveals that Reuters is reporting directly on the facts as presented, not making a value judgment as to their veracity. That is what news is supposed to be. There is also a contrasting sentiment from Sen. Kaine. Please don’t start acting like Twitter on here.

Dustin Street on Substack Help! What should my February essay be about? Or should I do like…flash fiction, or something? Somebody give me a topic, a prompt, ANYTHING! Challenge me with a nugget.

#booksky #writingcommunity help!

Feel this so strongly right now.

Maybe if we just didn’t test for TB, we wouldn’t have so many cases. That was Trump’s COVID logic anyway. And to think, that brainless oaf Robert Kennedy is having his confirmation hearing today. 🙄

Such a fantastic interview! Very insightful.

This was first contact for me. I’m a ride or die now.

This may cause some pearl-clutching, but I cannot find a single fuck left to give about Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively’s legal feud. Our country is burning down more by the hour. Any semblance of democracy is slipping through our collective fingers. I…don’t know what the hell we’re going to do…

207 to go. Gods help us.

You can always count on the heteros to say the quiet part out loud.

Me too! I only realized today that there’s definitely a color trend in mine!

I’m intrigued by this one! Definitely want to see it!

How do you keep working on a light, fluffy gay romcom when you just want to write about watching the world burn because of our headlong slide into fascism? I know the world needs happy escapism but I just don’t know how to produce it right now. #booksky #thoughts #writer

I’m taking one at work literally as I read this. Definitely much needed and magical!

Just reviewed the first one in my newsletter, and I can’t wait to get my hands on the sequel! So full of hope and whimsy and fun!
