An even better look at the gorgeous Year of the Mer book 1 (of 2) cover! I gasped just about to death when they told me THEEEE Micaela Alcaino was the one doing it.

You can (and should) pre-order it wherever you pre-order your books. Out April 7, 2026. www.simonandschuster.com/books/Year-o...

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

A lot of people are fighting over whether or not watching a video of someone's death makes you a better activist or person and I would like to gently suggest that what you do in response to the video's existence is what matters, whether you watched it or not.

Year of the Mer, @ldlewiswrites.blacksky.app, out 4/7. You’ve got a great slow boil of a book. There's a lot of table setting in this book, but it all maneuvers into place for the last scene, and I can't wait to see what comes of it in the next half of the story.

Thanks to Rent Party participation, we're only $2.5k away from covering January bills! Woohoo! Thanks for sharing your fave tea company with your loved ones, for stocking up on gift cards at a discount to share or use yourself later, for signing up for classes, for adopting tea pets...we love you!
Happy Monday, friends! Here we are in Q1, which is when I do my internal audits to see how we can make things more sustainable behind the scenes here under the ever-crushing weight of our capitalist hellscape. So on that super cute note, let's talk about January!

Best thing about adulthood and indeed life right now is that I can have both pho and chocolate chip cookies and no one can stop me

Churro is very bad at hide-and-seek because she only ever goes to the bath tub to hide between the shower curtain and liner

In honor of Hayao Miyazaki's birthday, what's your favorite Studio Ghibli film? Doesn't have to be the one you think is "the best," just the one that nestled in your heart. Mine is Howl's Moving Castle.
