@janeespenson.bsky.social Thanks for the one long email chain comment on the Humanitas session today. It was a good reminder for me, and I immediately went and fixed an email that I was about to send. :-)

This is delightful.

Cannot wait to watch this! 👏👏👏

🤣

But how did it taste??

For the evening crowd...

New Writing and Whatnot blog post all about my workflow and the sites I use instead of Substack.

You do you, but I don't like supporting hate speech. You can't say there isn't another way... I'm giving them to you here. writingandwhatnot.com/blog/diy-new...

I have not — good to know! Thanks for answering. :)

What is Gainrep? Can anyone tell me? Because I keep getting email requests to endorse people I’ve never even met.

The cover of “BETH IS DEAD.” It is pink, with blood dripping from the bottom half of the word death. The author’s name, “Katie Bernet” is centered at the bottom.

How do we feel about modern adaptations? I just finished Katie Bernet’s BETH IS DEAD. She’s a brilliant writer, and I was sucked into the story. It also made me incredibly nostalgic for the original.

The cover for the novel “The Grimoire of Grave Fates.” The tile is on a circle in the lower middle set within a depiction of a gargoyle. On the top is the phrase, “Twenty hours. Eighteen students. One murderer.” On the bottom is, “Created by Hanna Alkaf and Margaret Owen.”

Who has read the collaborative novel THE GRIMOIRE OF GRAVE FATES? I need to know more. How did it come together? Did the editors have an outline & assign roles? Was there a writers’ room? Did the authors each come up with a character and it was worked out from there? So. Many. Questions.

Thanks, Lise! And congrats!

Just finished Charlie Donlea’s book DON’T BELIEVE IT, and I’m fascinated by the discourse surrounding its ending. To me, it’s a great sequel setup, but no direct sequel exists. Anyone know if the cases are referenced in either of the books featuring Gus or Cuddy?

Ghost! Excited for whatever is coming.

Started the year off yesterday with a 5-hour virtual writing sprint (marathon?) with friends. It was honestly one of my favorite starts to a year ever. Here’s to 2026 being the year when dreams come true.

Watching @judyblume.bsky.social's #Masterclass where she talks about wanting to make edits post-publication when recording an audiobook version (and not being allowed to) and oh my gosh so relatable. 🤣 It's never finished!

Hollywood Burbank Airport without air traffic controllers Monday night due to staffing shortages The Hollywood Burbank Airport will be operating without air traffic controllers on Monday night, which could create considerable delays for travelers.

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Hawaii Supreme Court Expands Rights of Defendants, and Once Again Rebukes SCOTUS - Bolts Hawaii justices ruled that their state constitution requires police to record interrogations. And they vowed to protect due process for Hawaiians—unlike, they said, the Roberts Court.

NEW: Hawaii's Supreme Court keeps releasing opinions that denounce the U.S. Supreme Court.

The latest? A new ruling that requires the police to record all interrogations from now on.

The author took it as an opportunity to say Hawaii's court will protect due process—while SCOTUS isn't:

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

Huntington's disease successfully treated for first time One of the most devastating diseases finally has a treatment that can slow its progression and transform lives, tearful doctors tell BBC.

Philanthropies Strike a Promising Deal to Turn Back H.I.V.

This is huge: “A drug that provides near-perfect protection against H.I.V. with shots just twice a year will be made available at $40 per patient annually in low- and middle-income countries, offering new hope… making lenacapavir a realistic choice in countries with constrained resources.”

Tonight, the American people - in defense of free speech - returned a political satirist to the airwaves after a burgeoning fascist regime tried to silence him.

It’s an historic night. I won’t forget it.
