Just threw out all of our Campbell’s Soup products including Prego and Raos pasta sauces. They had bioengineered ingredients (fake meat) in all of it.
They used to be a good brand. Now? Can’t trust them.

Writing is my escape from reality. Reality is my escape from realizing I haven’t written in three weeks. This is fine. Everything is fine. Nothing is fine.

The nonfiction author experience: Spend 6 months researching. Write 200 pages. Editor says “this needs more research.” Question every life choice that led you here.

My book proposal: 50 pages, annotated bibliography, chapter outline, marketing plan, comp titles, platform metrics, and my soul. Agent response time: 6-18 months or heat death of universe, whichever comes first.

Can’t write because the world is ending. Can’t doomscroll because then I’ll never write. Can’t touch grass because I have a deadline and currently live in sand. This is what they mean by “the writing life.”

Writing romance during the apocalypse feels like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic except the deck chairs are my fictional people and they WILL get their happy ending even if I won’t.
