I just heard about the Rapture tomorrow! It’s like when the annoying neighbors sell their house!

I can’t imagine spending my last day on earth meeting with JD Vance. #RIPFrancis

You know how it is when you have a cold and an ear infection and you realize you haven’t taken your antibiotic yet and so you do with what’s left in your Peet’s tea thermos only you made a hot toddy last night to help you sleep and you just took your morning meds with a couple of shots of bourbon.

When my novel came out, I asked my publisher if they could hire a specific narrator for the audiobook who I thought would be awesome. They did and she was!

I’m starting to realize that all of Cheeto Jesus’s knowledge of WWII comes from Hogan’s Heroes.

Not really because he’s so far in my past that he rarely comes to the surface. But the likeness to JDV is crazy. I do think I see my brother who died in 2006 all the time. I always have to blink and shake my head to see it’s not him.

OMG, yes. Did this recently when the very old school male British narrator made the female main character sound like a pouty ten year old. Ugh.

I don’t know him well but he represented the sellers for one of our properties and his behavior then makes this completely unsurprising.

Thanks! We’re already members is the CA club. That’s how we found Brienne’s breeder, Lynn Rosebrock, who was amazing. I’ll check out the West Coast club.

Looking to connect with #IrishWolfhound people in Oregon! We're actively looking for a puppy. We lost Brienne a year ago and are ready now for those 1-lb/day growth spurts!

John sent me this article this morning. I wish I could say I was surprised.

I'm exploring a new genre and want to test the waters with some short stories. Anyone have suggestions for a quirky, fun magazine that would be a good place to submit a paranormal romance cozy mystery set in Oregon?

The sun is out-ish here in Southern Oregon and my mind is exploding with all the possibilities of what I can do in my garden.

I would 100% go to a hotel with a giraffe in the window!

Wow…the only thing I remember about The Aeneid is how pissed off I was on Dido’s behalf when Aeneas is all, β€œSorry, babe, but I’ve got to go found Rome.” *rushes to bookshelf*

Why does Moiraine Sedai look like Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, in #WheelofTime, S3Ep2?

Awww...a nice moment. Maybe a micro fiction moment? I'm struggling today. Lost my gorgeous Irish Wolfhound, Brienne, and my dear friend Amy a year ago today. It's been a tough day. I need a walk and a flower.

Feeling a little dense that it didn't occur to me until the recap at the beginning of tonight's episode, but I'm freaked out that the kid whose mom fake the illness on #ThePitt may be the...well, you know. Yikes!
