Attica Locke

Ha!

Friday. Wallets down. Keep your dollars in your pocket. Speak the only language they understand.

I’m not on X. This isn’t me, fyi.

Y’all, I’m so tired.

It is the privilege of my life to be a storyteller. To be in community with readers and writers. That is the best thing about the LA Times Book Festival. Bringing the entire globe to one city. Bringing folks together. I am so honored to be a finalist for an LA Times Book Prize.

Controversial take:

I hate Times New Roman.

It’s been a rough, ROUGH six weeks. This helps.

Go Eagles, who I fell in love with after they gave the right answer to a dictator showing up to the game.

Super flattered that the guy actually knew the answer!

Bid on this Highway 59 trucker hat (for my Highway 59/Bluebird, Bluebird trilogy) and help support those affected by the LA fires. Also cool stuff from other writers like Lori Rader-Day and Michael Connelly. Link here: linktr.ee/atticalocke

I’m here! 🙋🏽‍♀️

Does anyone else put something on their to do list that they’ve already done (or as they’re doing it ) just check it off and feel good about their productivity?

If you haven’t yet gotten to know Darren Mathews, haven’t gotten lost in the pine trees and blues and barbecue of the Highway 59 trilogy, may I suggest you start today with the novel that kicked it all off. “Bluebird, Bluebird.” Followed by “Heaven, My Home” and then, “Guide Me Home.”

Spent today at Descanso Gardens, communed with trees, watched people’s hopes and dreams lifted up by a breeze, and saw beauty everywhere I looked.

Thank you! And I will! ❤️

It is so magical to come across a book’s title in the text.

Can’t wait to watch

A Cotswold cheddar, yes.

Texas! What are y’all doing tomorrow? Let’s talk books, boots and blues! ❤️

Oh my god, I love this!

So everyone else’s productivity is shit too, right?

Good lord, what a fucking time to be alive.
