Last three months: PB launch, writing retreat, new & revised humorous PB MSs to agent; continued percolation of my MG NIV; 12 day writing brain haitus w/o laptop, MSs, or guilt.

If you love a book, write a nice review. It gives the author encouragement for bad days when they want to take up scorpion petting. - @lianabrooks.bsky.social

So this happened: spent an amazing week+ in Seoul, South Korea visiting my son studying there. Flew back yesterday and touched down to news that the president had declared martial law, but the National Assembly had already unanimously blocked it. #thisiswhatdemocracylookslike
Gives me hope.

OK miss me with the bullshit that writers are ONLY on social media to sell books.

We're also humans who have pets and gardens and baked goods and pancakes that improbably come out of the pan looking like goats.

Where else are we supposed to talk about those things? Just stand outside and yell??

It’s been a tumultuous month. But my fortune was, “It’s good to let a little sunshine out as well as in.” So I have been trying to attracted small bluebirds of happinesses. I hope my painting does the same for you!
