This ad campaign in Barcelona is brutal... they're all like, stop scrolling and read a book/ go for a walk/ make a friend/ go for a bike ride, you lazy POS. I love it & feel personally attacked ❤️

I hear a lot of talk about comps, but does anyone have an 'anti-comp'?
I do, and it's Adelaide. I want my book to show a very different 'American woman moves abroad' story. Sorry, not sorry.

Have you tried calçots? It's a giant onion that you grill and then eat with romesco sauce. Highly recommend.
We made 6,000 of them for the neighborhood yesterday with the Castellers of Barcelona. Fem Calçots, fem barri.

PSA: if someone is out of office the 15-19, do not email them on the 19 and expect a response. They are still out of office, that's what 15-19 means.

It's Summer Day here in Albania!!
The weather isn't 100% cooperating, but today marks the end of winter for Albanians.
They wear red & white string bracelets, and when they fall off, they throw them in the trees for the birds to use in their nests.

I was worried when my first draft was only 50k words, but I'm up over 66k now and that just happened organically from adding things in here and there and revising.

Opinions needed:
The best friend character's name is Charlotte/ Charlie, and I really like that name for her.
I'm now trying out Christina for the MC, which I also like.
Are the names too similar? Or do you think it's okay bc it's a K vs a CH sound?

I try to say only nice things about places I travel, but I've never been elbowed & physically pushed (in lines, walking in the street, etc) so many times in my life. I'm from New York.
When the culture doesn't match your values, it's very hard to stay for long stretches.

Unfortunately, the other 50% is actually writing, which I'm really, really bad at.
