Three Things About Emmy Crawford is six months old! If you need a break from the news cycle and are after hope, humor, and romance + a hate letter to health insurance -- this one's for you. :) #booksky

Too bad Uvalde Elementary didn’t sell Teslas.

Nebraskan here (far from a Republican tho)- I'm embarrassed on behalf of my state and my country, reeallllly worried about how this will impact our most vulnerable citizens, but also aware this is the result of FAFO. T*ump told us exactly what he was going to do, and now he's doing it.

Trump administration cancels meeting on flu shots, fueling anti-vax concerns FDA, which vaccine skeptic RFK Jr oversees, made the announcement with no explanation or new date

First it was postponed. Now it is canceled.

86 children/19,000 adults HAVE DIED FROM FLU THIS YEAR.
430,000 people have been hospitalized.

THIS IS ANTI-VAX LUNACY.

Meanwhile, HOW ARE YOUR GROCERY PRICES?

Okay, this is super weird, but-- when I was a sixth grader, a fifth grader bit my ankle. 😬
So I guess write the book? There are at least two kids (one who is now 41) who are Hungry For Ankles.

Here is the pre-RFK vaccination schedule for your kids. Please download it before he is confirmed and changes/deletes it.

Give it to your pediatrician and say this is the schedule you want your kids on.

Making this my pinned post.

No no no, literally was supposed to be the file where I put stuff to send to my accountant. So when I say my Scrivener files are in there, please read this as: Allison Bitz Is a Hot Mess.

Well darnit! I did recently learn I have my root files saved in what is supposed to be my "accountant folder", I have no idea why. LOL.

Gosh, I wish I could offer guidance but I'm a YA novelist and have never taken on a PB! I bet there are other folks who know this stuff, though.
