🪦 New Yorkers are in front of the New York Stock Exchange for a mass die-in to symbolize how these devastating cuts will destroy families & take lives.

Deep spending cuts to programs like healthcare, food assistance, and education is a matter of life & death for millions.

Congress: #StopTheCuts!

Haha. I just ended my comment on your first post that reviewers are weird. A different kind of weird than you are talking about.

Nancy SM Waldman @nuanc.bsky.social · Mar 9

Just for the record and for what it’s worth: I love your Finders Series and sent all of them to my son who devoured them as well. I am a newbie at receiving reviews and, wow, people can be so very, very weird. 🩷

I love the “don’t equate suffering with reverence & worry with impact.” I also love “there is no track.” But the line I think of when I try to recreate this Joy is “sunshine dancing on the floorboards.” Thanks for the response.

In FOUR years, huh? Hmm. 🧐From The Guardian:

US consumer confidence plunges in February in its biggest decline in four years

Index reflects consumer optimism, which is shaky as inflation seems to be stuck and a trade war over tariffs looms

I have always known joy as a fleeting gift. After reading this hygge poem-which literally makes me LOL & tear up-I am experiencing her as a presence in my daily life. Hope it helps some (ALL?!) of you good hearts in these dark times.

A poem about being the light in dark times.

First proper snowfall two days ago. January finally looks like itself. #CapeBreton

View from my front door on a bright day; looks out on our gingerbread porch with steps down to a snowy landscape.

OMG. I put on a Google alert for the title of my novel release—Every Rule Undone. Now I am getting notifications that are about he who shall not be mentioned and what he has undone. 🫣😩😠

🙂 Noveling certainly helps my brain as I escape to worlds of my own making, but I find this strategy clears the real world residue from my brain so I can write fiction [and do everything else] better!
