NYC, we are all rooting for you! 💖

Personal: my husband called me one of the most competent people he'd ever met (I grew up feeling like I was a flake)

Professional: a review said my first book read like a 90s romcom.

This is maybe just my very niche interest, but teaching comprehensive sex ed in places (like Texas) that are hostile to it, legally.

ooooh the Levi/Tara combo, brave, I like it.

One of my alums recently messaged to thank me for everything I teach because no one at college "knows how to use databases OR condoms." So I must be doing some good in the world. 😂

Things you could do in honor of my birthday:
Support a Palestinian family in need
Support a queer/trans kid in Texas
If you're in Houston, vote for HISD board
Buy my last book for everyone you know (it hasn't earned out yet):

Today I'm 43. I generally have a lot of anxiety about all the things I haven't done yet, but today I'm feeling pretty good about the whole thing. I've done some cool stuff. I've published 3 novels, raised the coolest kid on Earth, and learned how to not hate my body.

“I don’t think of myself as a chef,” she says. “But, like, a person who is creating a feeling in a space.”

This is like ... An actual David Rose quote but I don't think she's satirizing herself 😭

Remember, as SNAP is about to end, the standing rule remains firm:

If you see someone stealing diapers or formula no you didn't.

My current book on sub gets rejections like "queer books are just really hard to sell right now" but CoHo is over here writing fan fic of herself. Amazing I love it here.

Carly, please, how is this real?!?! Hahahaha fucking publishing

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness.

the giddy authors, Sara Waxelbaum on the left and Brianna R. Shrum on the right, pose in front of their book, Don’t Forget to Breathe, which sits on a Barnes & Noble shelf.

our beloved secondborn, DON’T FORGET TO BREATHE, emerged today, directly into your hands. it’s very gay and very messy and we hope you love it as much as we do 🤍 bookshop.org/p/books/don-...

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

PRAYER FOR RELIEF Because there is no dispute as to Ms. Grijalva's election or qualifications, the Court should: A. Issue a declaratory judgment stating that Ms. Grijalva shall be deemed a Member of the House of Representatives once she has taken the oath prescribed by law, see 5 U.S.C. § 3331; B. Issue a declaratory judgment stating that if Speaker Johnson has not administered the oath, the oath may be administered to Ms. Grijalva by any person authorized by law to administer oaths under the law of the United States, the District of Columbia, or the State of Arizona; and C. Award other relief as the Court deems just and proper. Dated: October 21, 2025 Respectfully submitted, KRISTIN K. MAYES Attorney General for the State of Arizona By: /s/ Joshua D. Bendor Joshua D. Bendor D.D.C. Bar ID 031908 Solicitor General Joshua A. Katz Assistant Attorney General

NEW: The State of Arizona sues the House of Representatives, demanding that Speaker Mike Johnson seat Adelita Grijalva or that someone else be allowed to swear her in. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Montrose residents went out and repainted the side walk last night:

Apparently avocado, broccoli and Brussels sprouts in small servings are low fodmap, the other veggies that are super high protein (peas, mushrooms) are not 😔

Because it's the worst (she says, while actively trying to sell books for publication)

these are a different set of republican racist texts than the previous set of republican racist and nazi texts

Friday is my birthday and Saturday @authormsbev.bsky.social is in town at Kindred Stories which feels like a pretty amazing birthday weekend to me.

seems that RFK is clearing the path for his CDC to do tuskegee syphillis experiments as a matter of course. in other news, RFK is a genuine monster who relishes in the pain and suffering of those he feels he has control or dominion over

I do but I keep them in the group chat because they're all about publishing.

This averages out at a violation roughly every four hours, around the clock, continuously since 10 October. At what point do we stop calling it a ceasefire when Israel has just literally not ceased firing

This whole thread is excellent, just boosting this skeet because it's immediately actionable and kind of got lost in the replies at the end.

I'm glad to see huge numbers in big cities, but the rallies in very conservative areas of Texas like the Woodlands/Conroe and New Braunfels are really getting me. Every small town white woman he alienates is a chip in his power.

This just makes me believe that she also hates trans people but she doesn't want to deal with the consequences of saying so.

This is not a drill, there is a new Audrey Faye Ghost Mountain Shifters book out tomorrow!!!

Watch MAJOR! Online | Vimeo On Demand The award-winning documentary "MAJOR!" follows the life and campaigns of Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, a Black transgender elder who has been fighting for…

it is disorienting when you lose someone who you navigate your life to, like a star blinking out of the night sky.
a life lived in fearlessness, she carved out space for so many of us.

I've been told that this 2019 fundraiser for Miss Major started after her stroke is where anyone who might want to contribute to the expenses of her family in the immediate future should contribute: fundly.com/missmajor - It will stay open for the time being.

Fucking devastated by the loss of Miss Major.
