My sister got me a gratitude journal a few years back and while I didn’t stick with it long, I noticed that it did help me think more positively during the day.

That said, she just gave me this one and I feel it’s a better fit for these times.

Calls and text messages have flooded me in the last 72 hours from friends and colleagues in Sierra Leone and elsewhere: Are my meds going to be cut off? Am I going to die? I don't know what to tell them. I don't know what to tell anyone. Hope is my whole jam, but I feel very distant from it.

If you Google "inauguration day," you're greeted with an animation of fireworks forming the shape of the American flag. Google has never done something like this for the inauguration, sources told me, out of fear of appearing partisan. But that's changed now, with Sergey and Sundar attending.

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts and real estate”.

Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

not saying I'm feeling especially lazy today but I briefly - very briefly! - considered buying a copy of my own ebook while in the living room because the physical copies I keep at home are upstairs in my bedroom and that just felt like too much effort

People often ask me if I reread my books after they come out.

1. No. Never. Ew, David, ew. No.

2. I have no interest in reading my writing unless I'm writing/editing it. There is so much else to read.

3. I read the thing so many goddamned times while writing and revising. So many. YET STILL I ERR

Been thinking a lot lately about that episode of Parks and Rec where Leslie and Tom have to rebrand fluoride in the water as TDazzle in order to get the public to support it.

I do not work for the library. I just grew up in a library. My library had an entire recording studio in it and taught everyone I know how to create beautiful music.
Some people know how to code cause of their library.
GET A LIBRARY CARD.

(Finally) escaping twitter reminds me of this mystic I once read who said that the gates of hell are always open for those who are ready to leave.

Hank Green is so ambitious. It's exhausting. My life is like being the co-author of the Federalist Papers.

I'm all like, "John Jay got sick after writing five."

And Hank's like, "HAMILTON WROTE THE OTHER FIFTY ONE."

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

The backstory to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein puts unrealistic expectations on how much work you can accomplish in a vacation house.
