I do! I find friendship love such a powerful love. In The Stealth Lovers, sure, there is the friends-turned-lovers thing with Xax and Viv, but there is also the unyeilding bond Xax has with Ophelia. It’s not romantic at all but a heckin’ strong friendship love. #SpoonieAuthChat

So, I’m still thinking about the Bad Bunny performance. I feel like it should be taught in schools as an example of how the performing arts can be used to express a cultural and historical essay.
So much thought went into it.

I’m starting to wonder that if I get back into watching NFL football (used to be a massive fan), I should follow Green Bay. They’re very community oriented, and I love cheese.

If you have AI generate your books, then you miss out on the joys of First Draft Cake. Just saying.
Also, it’s stealing and lazy AF.

I used to have a ton of Patriots gear, but that was from years ago. So now Stitch is giving me the colours I need to be a fan today. Go Pats!

I never bought anything from lululemon, and now that I’ve seen those brown and red uniforms, I can’t wait to continue not buying anything from them. 😳

I’m not going to say that I “laughed hysterically” anymore. Instead, I’ll say, “I laughed from the depths of my uterus.”
It just feels more medically accurate.😉

The 50something female protagonist in my upcoming space-opera romcom is autistic and disabled. There is such a freedom that comes with putting myself so much into a character and how I would probably respond in the same situation. It’s unbelievably liberating to be that unmasked while writing.

I’m just so upset about Catherine O’Hara. She was so full of awesome. Her comedic timing was unbelievable. I also feel bad for Eugene Levy, because they were such great comedic partners.
