Killer Clowns and Red Balloons: What to Know About ‘It: Welcome to Derry’

Ah, I'm so thrilled to share my debut article for @nytimes.com!!!

I am a huge fan of @stephenking.bsky.social and first discovered his work when I saw the 1990 "It" miniseries when I was 11 years old. I started devouring his books after that, and he's been inspiring me as a writer ever since.

Chicago friends! I will be coming into Chicago at the end of the week. I'd love to see y'all! Also, please come to my book event at Secret World Books! It starts at 7 p.m. on Friday, June 13! It would mean so much to me to see you there, and it is an amazing indie bookstore we should all support. ❤️

I want to go see "Snow White" again this week. It was so fantastic! I'm glad it's a success. So weird I keep hearing that it's a flop, but it was so wonderful.

I believe empathy is valuable and that movies (and stories in all forms) have the ability to teach it to us, if we’ll let them. They allow us to step outside of ourselves and see life from other perspectives.

I can't wait to read this book! Congratulations.

Oh no, just horrible!

Thank you so much!

Marta was stunning. She was looking at me there. I was a child squealing at how adorable she was and standing by with treats and snuggles. How lucky am I that I was her human. My heart is just bursting with joy and love for her still.

Oh no, I hope you feel better soon!

Nice, I'm so glad you had a good experience. :-) I love this album.

I braved my first ever Black Friday for a Taylor Swift book, album, and CD. This is the Anthology that has her song “Robin” on it. 😉 I never thought Black Friday sounded fun, but this was a great experience. I met some kind Swifties in line, got what I wanted, and enjoyed myself!

Thanks so much! Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks so much! I love Canada and want to explore more!

That is an amazing song!

Happy Thanksgiving, dear friends! Here’s a fun little memory…I’m throwing it back to my college days when I was Charlotte Church’s dancer in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. I was in a butterfly costume and learned choreography to her performance of “Carrickfergus”…I loved every moment of it.

hahaha I want to learn!

Thanks for following me! I love the cool things I’m discovering here. I will support you org, and thank you for having inclusive sizing for merch. Will be getting some this week. :)

Thank you so much! 💙

Thanks so much, Carey Ann. I'm already feeling much better. I hope you're having a terrific Tuesday!

So true! Thank you for sharing. :)

Those were the right words, totally. Thank you so much. You're so sweet. Sending you hugs right back! 💙

Aw, thanks, Willow! I love this GIF.

Thanks, Chris. I hope so. :) Happy Tuesday!

Hi, Donna, I'm so sorry you know the cycle, too. You are so kind, and you matter, too. I hope today is an easy one!

I'm so sorry you know the feeling. I hope you are feeling well and happy today. Thanks so much for the kind words.

Today I woke up feeling hopeful and more like myself. I have a lot to do today, but I like to make "Get To Do" lists. That way, I don't have to keep worrying about forgetting to do something. hah So that's what I'm going to do, then get started on my day.

Love it!

Thank you so much! 🫂

This week has been an emotional roller coaster soaring between feeling awful, like a burden to the world, pretty much the worst I've ever been, broken, terrible, and then okay (for a minute). Then the cycle begins again. I've done much work on myself, and I know things will be fine. It's just hard.
