Forbes may call this “Consumer Angst” but it's not. This is full-blown societal rage. This is Americans taking back their power. This is FAFO on a national scale.

I’m flying home from Author Nation and had the worst TSA experience of my life. I understand if you have extra protocols, but you don’t have to be a complete a** to someone in a wheelchair!

The premiere of Welcome to Derry was on my best friend's birthday. Since he loves Stephen King, I made him a cake themed after the show.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.
Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.
People have power. Ask Target

Your monthly reminder:
Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

Does spending WAY TOO much money in a bookstore you weren’t supposed to go to count? I may or may not have done this today. 😅
Assignment accepted.

It's Friday! Your assignment this weekend: Hang out in a bookstore or library. Spend time with the books. Chat with the booksellers & librarians. Enjoy the community. This is activism. Your presence energizes these spaces & these spaces need energy. Have a great weekend!

I just had an unexpected author milestone and am so touched. I was at Michael’s Arts and Crafts and ran into one of my readers. I knew it’d happen eventually, but didn’t expect it this soon. She loved my book and I can’t stop smiling! It made my month, if not my year! 🥰
