I KNOW WE'RE NOT.... 🤣

Dear younger folks,
If yall pull these straight from my freshman year of HS, I WILL NOT hide a single 🤣 when you’re sliding all over the place and you keep losing a shoe like some cutwater Cinderella.

Js....let this one die. Trust me, here. #bookishauntie wouldnt lie. 🤣

Dad bods are in.... and being healthy and happy is always the goal. I try not to let media sway me too badly and focus on do I feel strong and healthy? Ok. Then fuck it and that fat roll. I dont want to waste my best body years thinking poorly of myself. 🤣

I talked it over with him first and thought about it, but ultimately.... I'm the last of the Calvo line, and it just felt wrong not to do something to make sure they have some legacy that lives on. They sacrificed everything to make sure we'd get the chance to dream big, and it just felt right.

So, I had a long talk with my Tio Adolfo a week or two ago and it was bitter sweet. (My hispanic family is now all reaching their 70s. My mom's is small) Found out some bad news but I learned that I got my "move, I'll do it myself" streak from my grandfather (the Calvo side). We laughed and cried.

I woke up and decided to try something new with my hair, which was my first mistake. My hair does not...hair. So, now, I've been ROASTED by my niece. I'm 💀.

Absolutely cooked.

But I laughed at her response for a solid ten minutes.

I'm both proud and terrified of her 🤣

A photo of the second attempt And somehow they came out worse and I have stiff curls that look like radio antennas.

A photo of my nieces response to my hair, which is to send me a photo of a cockroach. 🤣

How can fate rest in the hands of someone....so....different.

But Sometimes, being different IS the only answer.

Cooper is a nonverbal autistic boy who has always seen the world differently. When a beam of living light opens a doorway, he discovers a place that finally speaks to him, but there's also something in the dark calling out to him.

Oh. I loved it.

I want to do some of those myself. One day.

I dont know much about Anne of Green Gables. I tried to stay as far away from wholesome as I could. I was a "The Munsters" and "Adam's Family" kid. 🤣

But I DO love a retelling, which is what caught my interest.

And then the marketing starts. 🤣

Thats why I started backwards. I know the other side, no problem, but this...no. I got nothing.

My one note has 15 different Synopsis with almost their full outlines ready to go (and one one boardgame in the making.)🤣

And my email inbox has even more that havent made it to the one note.

Ive been collecting ideas with nothing to do with them for a decade.
So, yes.

Dear #BookSky,

Why did none of you tell me there’s a modern retelling of Anne of Green Gables?! This seems an oversight of immense proportions. I may need time with my bosom friends to process this blissful information.

Your devoted pal,

Huh. Is it a dark retelling? Could be worth a look!

Tried using new analytics software to find trending #Booksky hashtags.

Learned absolutely nothing… except that winter sausage season is apparently thriving.

Fully support #MenReading and #Jocktober, but I was emotionally unprepared for that portion of bsky. 🤣

Learned, but what do you guys suggest. I dont wanna talk about my WIP all day either, but I'm new to the professional side of things, so, as far as socials go, its been a flop...but at least I dont crowd the feed with self promo spam. Maybe one self promo post every week or two 🤣 Help plz. Pic of

For myself and see who I'm comfortable supporting. You're free to do the same.

Author Nicole @ PM Creative @pmcreative.bsky.social · 22d

Actively seeking opportunities to speak out and responding when asked are two different things. Now, I'm probably only comfortable buying second hand or buying from a library, so my money doesn't go to the church. You can do what suits you but my original point stands, its time for me to make a list

What is he changing from within? And how? By saying and doing nothing?

Im not sure how I feel about it.
