Where has this book on clarity been all my life? DREYER’S ENGLISH is not only a must-read, but a delight on the level of the greatest of desserts. One must consume giddily. Thanks @bcdreyer.social

Haha. Not sure. So many miles of beaches maybe they’re partying elsewhere

It was a weird morning. Only three sanderlings on two miles of beach, and those were partying with snowy plovers.

Thanks @bcdreyer.social! Your comment is a great reminder to order your book, which also slipped me into a rabbit hole where I found your merch. I like those t-shirts! Gonna get one!

A racist person sent a racist apology (non apology) and I just couldn't be nice. So, I unleashed some demons. I feel better.

Have a nice day. And stand up for yourself, folks.

When a film director passes on turning your book into a movie but reaches out to say he loved it. I like that. Gives me writing energy.
