Not sure if sharing pet photos is mandatory here when you have dogs and not cats, but just in case…
Woke up in the middle of the night wondering why airports don’t have Little Free Libraries at every terminal. If someone needed a book for a flight, they could grab one. If someone finished a book on a flight, they could leave one.

And then my brain got to thinking about the logistics of it all.

Hey close to a thousand of you follow @mrrbe.bsky.social

This is an AI asking questions to farm your answers, and some of them are pretty creepy.

Look at the posts & replies, you can tell.

I have some thoughts on pockets.

And this goes way beyond women’s clothing either having zero pockets or very tiny ones. This is about clothing that arguably shouldn’t have functional pockets but do.

Today I learned there is such a thing as an electric washboard—as in the instrument.

Not my favorite sound, tbh.

I cover how to find your Twitter followers, Starter Packs, Feeds, Lists, some handy-dandy tools, and BlueSky etiquette.

Please watch and/or share with any newbies you know. I think it's helpful.

You know what’s worse than querying a manuscript in hopes an agent will love it? And it’s even worse than having a book out on submission?

The waiting after your kid sends out their college applications.

No one prepared me for this.

I’ve decided one of the best things about having chihuahuas is the ability to scratch behind both ears with one hand while still being able to use my mouse with the other.

Please don’t send another hurricane to Florida. I just donated all of my excess hurricane provisions!

A hurricane will likely form soon. It could affect the U.S. next week.

I’m a little late to the party, but I finally made it!
