Bring 👏 back 👏 DVD 👏 extras 👏

Thought making my editing calendar for my Winter and Spring 27 books would make me feel better about my schedule for the rest of the year.
It didn’t 🙃

Hot take: Living in the city isn’t as hard as people say it is. Some people just don’t like city life, and that’s totally fine—but they should admit that instead of blaming the city itself.

We loved this one! Tina Fey’s character especially cracked us up because she’s literally me 😅

I was just gonna say, I start mine this week and you’re usually right after me lol

The rumors are true: KPop Demon Hunters is enormously fun and I will be listening to the soundtrack all day.

Just remembered I have a nemesis.

Omg Jenn I’m on my train now I’m so glad I saw this first

How am I doing? My fyp has reached levels of “sad Michael Scott edits set to ‘The Prophecy’ by Taylor Swift.”

Anyone else worry that one of the NYT Games editors is on the train with them and thinking how dumb you are for needing a hint in Strands? Just me?

DO NOT RANK CUOMO

I got my first mosquito bite of the season and it has already swelled up to the size of a ping pong ball.

I hope all of you who wished for this summer hellscape are happy.

Yellow graphically hand-drawn stars adorn the post along with a blue starburst with Thank You written in script inside of it.

Oh, wow. To go from no books on the Bank Street lists to TWO in one year is truly amazing. I'm actually speechless in wonder and gratitude.

Canva-created image post shows a review from Publishers Weekly for ZOMBIE AND BRAIN ARE FRIENDS. Review text in a pink box reads:" Lucianovic peppers her variation on the “Can I keep it?” genre with sly humor—Zeb attempts to lure Brian back home by crinkling “the Zombie Times’s toughest crosswords”—while Cham’s depictions of offbeat locavore culture are sweetly ghoulish." Next to the cover of the picture book is the text "In Stores September 2nd."

Thank you for this amazing review, @publisherswkly.bsky.social!

We have “flex Fridays” year round! Everyone has the option of a half day, which is VERY nice when I’m not drowning in edits 😅

I can…log off early today? I don’t need to spend half my weekend editing?

I forgot what this was like.

Congrats, Kiara!!! 🥳🥳🥳

I’ve decided to have an NPC summer. I don’t want to be the main character. I want to pop into people’s stories with a funny one-liner and then sit in the background with nothing going on behind my eyes. That sounds like true peace.

Daredevil is filming at the diner on our block, which I guess makes sense since it was also the subject of an episode of Kitchen Nightmares—you’d have to be a daredevil to eat there!

That’s what I get for loving fucking nerds

Ladies, never introduce your man to your best friend because they might start a D&D campaign and you’ll have no one to bother with your every thought on Thursday nights.

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism.

It’s disgusting and dangerous.

If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign.

Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness.

To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.

I’m obvs always thinking of you

I also love that shrimp lo mein is where her mind went

Book people really are the best people 🥲

Congrats, Shelly!!! 🥳
