Black people have always known what white people were about in this country. I’m not surprised they’re coming for birthright citizenship or that they’re snatching people off the streets, or that the bad economy isn’t stopping the power consolidation. White people want supremacy more than joy.

It's nothing more infuriating and sad to see authors who become successful and promptly lose touch with the readers who made them successful. Authors are nothing without readers.

Want a Xmas romance? This is not that. RIDING NICK is a very silly and slightly sexy 99-cent short story in which a burned-out, 40-something, Bengali atheist gets her bells jingled by Santa Claus.

A little bit of snow expected today.
Not as much as originally predicted, thankfully.
And getting colder.
Better get some firewood in.

As suspected, it's DD's phone trying to give me heart failure.
She's fine.

This is a book quote graphic for In the Shadow of the Past (Shadow series Book 1) by J.E. Leak. The text reads: The singer pointed at Jenny’s extended leg. “I’m afraid there’s a run in your hose.” Jenny hiked her skirt to mid-thigh to look and then lifted her hand in utter defeat. “Terrific. My last pair.” She looked up to see interested blue eyes staring at her leg through the torn hose and pulled down her skirt in an uncharacteristic display of modesty. The singer turned back to the mirror and smiled with a hint of sympathetic amusement behind her eyes. “You’ve had a rough night.” “Story of my life,” Jenny said, as she surveyed the torn hose. After a beat, a heartfelt “Sorry” drifted down from the singer as if she’d witnessed, firsthand, every disappointment she’d ever had. Her soothing voice warmed her from the inside out, like a high-octane drink. Jenny blamed the feeling on the scotch.
