Today marks seven years of being in my writing group. What a milestone. Here is to many more.

Star Wars actor says ‘trans rights are human rights’ when asked about Harry Potter Kelly Marie Tran said ‘trans rights are human rights’ when the topic of JK Rowling's Harry Potter series was mentioned in an interview.

I loves me a baddie who stands on business. 😍😍😍😍

Preach! Its like we're all masochists.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Okay. Time to call your democratic senators and tell them that Bovino’s demotion and humiliation WILL NOT SUFFICE to fund DHS.

I personally don't tell people who have been fighting their hearts out daily for weeks not to celebrate wins of any size. I certainly don't do that when I've been nowhere near the place where the fight has been happening and have done little more than make some donations from miles away.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Water is big mad at me and Kari, jeez

Please help. Disaster has struck.

In the last 3 wks you all knocked another 3% off this campaign. Which means there's only $5126 to close it out.

I had to stop attending births without a car because surge pricing and inclement weather was making it dangerous for all involved. Finishing this campaign can get me back in the game.

ICE descends on Maine. "[Gov. Janet] Mills said, ‘Look, Maine knows what good law enforcement looks like because our law enforcement are held to high professional standards.... they don’t wear a mask..., and they don’t arrest people in order to fill a quota.’” abcnews.go.com/US/dhs-launc...

Sincerely hope I have not caught something. I'm exhausted. Might help if I went to bed at a reasonable hour but I guess we'll never know.

And I for one am extremely grateful.

America sucks ass right now

But it is only not worse because of people constantly resisting and fighting and protesting

Hello, everyone. I'm now open to queries. Visit www.triciaskinner.com/manuscript-w... to see my #mswl. Please note I'm only seeking adult fiction.

No one hates your boundaries more than someone who chose not to defend their own.

Truly. They are the worst.

Ethnic cleansing is crippling families AND society at large, one person at a time.

The problem with being a writer whose day job also involves being on a computer is eye strain. It really sucks. I've already had one ocular migraine this year and I dont want anymore.
