Yes, this is happening... SOON :)

Hey, thanks for playing, you've been the first and only. :) Unfortunately, it's fictitious. I made it up.

I will keep this in mind, though am working harvest and tomorrow (9/20) could be a long one. Thanks for reaching out. See you sometime. And keep writing!

Dear writers and readers, I've a question regarding presale incentive(s): would a dollar off and a dollar to charity be enough? Or do people just want "stuff"? Keychains, bookmarks, autographs? Thoughts? THX! #authors #booksky #novelwriting #marketing #WritingCommunity #indieauthor #writersofbluesky

Just purchased this this morning at a thrift store for a dollar, though with a much less sinister cover. :)

No Googling... Fake or real quote: "Honestly, I’d prefer to become comfortable with the unrelenting silence than the need to ignore the blind cacophony."

I find "listen to the women" excellent advice in this specific case and... in life in general. ♀️

Just Wrong. Period. Full F-ing Stop. Wrong.

Is it me, or is "she" a cat--and not just metaphorically :)

What about, regarding doing "no harm," amputating a gangrenous limb or cauterizing a wound? Playing Devi's advocate. Sorry. But, yes to prime directive. "A human's existence shall be in gaining and sharing as much knowledge and love as is humanly possible. Period." Or something like that. :)

That's really what it should be. Not... Where were you? But... Where are you? Oh, sweet and sour semantics. :)

Finally saw the Bonhoeffer film. While I enjoyed seeing the nearby locations where it was filmed, I think that it tried to cram too much information into too little time. A better script – or better editing – could have done justice to this man who had a message for his day – and for ours.

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut? #fyp #tx35 #texas #tx #uscongress #d... TikTok video by Congressman Greg Casar

So, obviously, you're not a "pantser"? :) I guess it's just revelling in a different form of "stress." From a devout and ordained Pantser--Good Luck! You'll get it done! Trust Time and Your Work. Again... Good Luck!

Kylin?! Yes! Hello. Of course I remember, even this far into the sea of cheap Spanish red... a nightly voyage. :) I've not been putting much out as, ATM, I'm sequestered in a small French village. (It could be worse. :)) And how are you? And the family? And your writing? DM me and let's reconnect. K

Do what you will w/this ... 🙌

And Al Green shaking his cane is not a problem either - in case any in democratic leadership read on BlueSky.

It is time for the Democratic Party leadership to decide which side they are on. Are you for the workers? Or are you for Elon? And if you refuse to lead, get out of the way.

I am the Libraries Wales Author of the Month, what a lovely thing. If you're so inclined you can read my interview with them here where I touch on such topics as Mervyn Peake, The Beatles, people who wrongly claim they're working class, Discworld, and the NME. libraries.wales/aotm/emily-c...

Working on a back cover blurb for an upcoming novel (Where Wolves Hide), I wrote: Is toppling a king worth placing your head in the guillotine?
It seems apropos given all that’s going on. No? Yes?
Feel free to pass it around. Maybe someone has a definitive answer?

"We care about veterans tremendously...but at the same time, we have taxpayer dollars, we have a fiscal responsibility to use taxpayer dollars to pay people who actually work"
Veterans don't work?
Hello, Democrats who are in charge of campaign ads?
Run this clip. NOW.

So we have a bit more than 50% of American's now following European leaders, the Leader of Mexico and a true leader Trudeau instead of the FOTUS or its administration 😭 BUT we must go with Democracy

Would be curious to read it, except, after six years living in France, I'm having to return to it, "dying America." :( Likely hitting a bit too close to reality for me. Ugh. Though maybe it has a Happy Ending? Yes? :) I'll check No. 1 out and go from there... :) Good Luck!
