Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.
"Zen" in Japanese derives from Chinese "Chan," which in turn comes from Sanskrit "dhyāna," meaning “meditation” or “meditative absorption.”

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.
Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.
Capitalist innovation is taking away a feature that used to be free (like YouTube allowing videos to play in the background) and then offering that same service back to you for a paid subscription.
Capitalist innovation is creating problems and then charging you for solutions.

Just so we’re clear, Charlie Kirk shouldn’t be shot down while talking and kids shouldn’t be shot down in classrooms. It’s that easy. However, a lot of powerful people are okay with both things, so here we are, surrounded by bullets, blood, thoughts, and prayers.
It's World Suicide Prevention Day today.
Be Kind.

Wrote a poem about my succulent, patience, and back injuries because some things can't be talked about through blogs. #amwriting #amwritingpoetry #amapoet

The uptick in “our book club wants to read your book!” followed by expensive fees to share with their members is absolutely wild.
Be careful? These scams wouldn’t be so prolific if they didn’t work every now and again.
Just started a sensitivity read for an author of a Big 5 Publisher. If all goes well, that'll be 2 out of 5 that I've worked with so far. #amediting #amreading #amfreelancing #amflexing
Excellent question.
I just discovered SmartArt on PowerPoint, and y'all ain't ready. #amabookcoach #ampresenting #amlevelingup
We all need an occasional reminder, so listen up. Write that book. Send that story. Query that agent. Ask for that blurb. Maybe it doesn’t work out, but there’s a chance it will, and that chance—however small you think it is—is all you need.
One of my favorite books of all time. An absolute must-read.
Very beautiful illustration of the "just make it exist first" argument.
Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.
this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like
I played Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memoirs instead of working on my new novel today, and it was worth it. Sometimes, you need a break from being in the writer headspace. #amwriting #amgaming #amtrying
I’ve learned more about being a better advocate for my son, through the questions children have been kind enough to ask.
A little essay for The Huffington Post, and how I learned to shed my “it’s not my job to educate everyone” armor, for the child who needed me to. www.huffpost.com/entry/answer...
Holy shit, yesterday it was DARK in my head. Today there’s some light, and that’s all we need, right? Wishing you a bit of light today. Text a friend. Call your mom. Listen to some good stuff. Make art. Read (I have some recs!). Listen to the birds. Take care of yourself.
Reminder: Write that thing. Pluck it outta your soul with rusty pliers. Hit the keyboard like it owes you money. Write whenever, wherever you can. Tell your story. Make the words dance. Whatever you want—a novel, a short story, an agent, a movie—it all starts with the writing.
While waiting to hear back from agents I've queried, I'm torn between working on the sequel for #FeatherWIP and starting an entirely new book to build my backlist. What do y'all think?

Meme of Anakin and Padme. Anakin: "So, I wrote this fantasy novel..." Padme: "And nobody dies in it, right?" Anakin: *smirks* Padme: ...Right?
One last #questpit post for #FeatherWIP before the deadline...
Because when a grieving witch, a righteous killer, and a conflicted prince have to navigate the revival of an ancient Egyptian snake god, there's bound to be some dead folks.
Not saying who, though🤫

This moodboard goes hard.
The art is fantastic!
This one had me at "immortal-yet-infuriatingly-handsome Shadow King" 🖤
