None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

Oh, we LOVE this one! 🐺

Happy Boycott Day to all who celebrate! 💚

A movement is calling for an 'economic blackout' on Friday. Here's what to know The People's Union USA, a grassroots group, is calling on Americans to join a national boycott by not shopping for 24 hours on Friday.

Delighted to share the cover for CYANIDE CONSTELLATIONS, my debut fiction collection. Devin Forst's art is so gorgeous! The collection also includes my Nathaniel Hawthorne-inspired novelette, "The Revenge of Rappaccini's Daughter”

Not sure about Library Journal's stats, but Kirkus advertises that only 2% of all indie books submitted receive starred reviews. They're a big deal.

Today, @toddkeisling.com joins me with only the second starred review for a Shortwave title (so far)!

Todd's book is so good. Pre-order it now!
