Looking forward to this film!

We’re laughing with you, Good Stab.

I cannot overstate how much I love this book or recommend it highly enough.

Short stories, anthologies, and non-fiction are definitely not my favorite things to read, but this book sounded super interesting and does not disappoint.

Read it. 💙📚

Rewatched SPOTLIGHT, and man does it piss me off even more in today’s world than when I’ve watched it previously. We need smart, courageous, empathetic journalists more than ever. God knows there’s more abuse and coverups than we probably realize, and it feels like the bad guys are winning.

Love this.

Thanks! I absolutely agree. Reading a book like this when I was 17 would’ve woken me up a lot sooner.

Bloodstains by Gaslight It’s 1997, senior year, and aspiring astronomy student,…

It’s Women in Horror month. May I recommend BLOODSTAINS BY GASLIGHT @redlagoe.bsky.social I read it last year and absolutely loved it. Vampirism by way of domestic violence. Or maybe vice versa.

Read up through a particularly violent sequence this morning that is likely to impede this book’s approval into the curriculum, but that scene is also why I love horror. It doesn’t look away. The book is violent because humans are violent. Horror books help us make sense of it——and get vengeance.

Haven’t read the book yet, no.

🧵 Hey, men - because I'm talking to the men here. This isn't meant to be an attack, no worries. I just want you to know that most women you know right now aren't doing great. We're not. I'll use myself as an example. 1/x

Love HANDMAID’S TALE, and this looks promising enough maybe I pay for HULU again, except then I remember that whole kowtow-to-the-leader censorship thing.

I ran out of space to write flashbacks (FBs), but this is the second book I’m handwriting, and I think the word count will work out. The other book was 317 handwritten pages that typed out to a bit over 100,000 words. Indeed, it is a fun challenge. Parts? Chapters? Sections? We’ll see how it goes.

That’s definitely part of the challenge. The book so far is divided into 4 parts that are roughly 35 handwritten pages each. I think it’ll be 8 parts total, but within those parts there’s no breaks, so even FBs have to be seamlessly blended in, which has been quite an intriguing challenge.

I’m also handwriting the whole thing. So, yeah, it’s messy.

Anyone else set weird parameters for particular projects? For example, my WIP has no scene breaks because I want a propulsive stream-of-consciousness approach, but man, this parameter slows my writing down. #5amwritersclub

Rereading THE BUFFALO HUNTER HUNTER @sgj.bsky.social and making notes so I can submit it for eleventh-grade Honors curriculum approval, and these lines are just so damn perfect. (Paperback publishing this summer!) (Also, @igreggreene.bsky.social made an amazing reader’s guide! Thanks for sharing!)

I think our country sinks beneath the yoke:
It weeps, it bleeds, and each new day a gash
Is added to her wounds.

Shows like THE PITT and SHRINKING and THE WEST WING are my lifeline right now to a world of competency and empathy.

Creating is an act of resistance, survival, and joy.

"The possession elements of horror stories have always fundamentally unsettled me. It's why I've stayed away from them. Until now,” Jones explains in a quote to PEOPLE.
