My cat watching me read the novel "Fox."
Reading the very dark & very vivid "Fox" by @joycecaroloates.bsky.social. The abuser's pov is so well-crafted and disturbing. Damn, it's terribly good.

Writing is amazing, but publishing is a different story. If you’re going to put yourself through publishing, make sure you write the stuff you love. Always.

School supplies for my kid cost a lot more this year. Trump promised to lower the cost of living. Coffee is up 33 %. I'm a Gilmore Girls-level coffee drinker! @momsrising.org is gathering #Trumpflation stories. Do you have one? trumpflation.momsrising.org #MomSky

Any strong leader would fight to release the files. Survivors have told the truth about Epstein & his friends for years.The response? Lies & cover-ups. Join @momsrising.org to demand the release of the Epstein files. #BelieveSurvivors action.momsrising.org/sign/release...

Book Rec: "Courage to Heal." 5 stars. Survivors everywhere feeling triggered by the hostility & denial targeted at the girls Epstein used & trafficked: I see you.
