12 months into #HorrorNotHate and over 400 people contacted about the project, and I finally got my first truly negative reaction to the idea of doing a charity project for LGBTQIA+ & Immigrant Rights. Had a retailer I admired block me on IG for asking if they'd like to partner up on it.

SPOILER ALERT: 3 episodes into #StrangerThings, and Jonathan Byers / Charlie Heaton is wearing a rad The Fall shirt. Probably too much to hope they get a #KateBush bump for #MarkESmith. That is all.

almost every novelist you read who's not from the airport fiction or bestseller sections is working a full on day job, including multi-award winners and absolute legends, or they have a spouse or trust that supports them. virtually across the board. just normalize in your mind that's how it works.
I know we know this, but authors need to get better at talking about how they actually make their money. Stop pretending it's from the books.

I've been working hard to clean things up (watched Stand By Me a couple months ago because that was the biggest one, I think).

Now (film nerd talking): Gone With The Wind, Pretty Woman, Wild At Heart, The Notebook, Brokeback Mountain, In The Mood For Love
Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?

I’ll go first: I haven’t seen Dirty Dancing.

How many people do I follow on social media? Exactly enough where every day I see a post about someone's beloved pet dying. It breaks my heart every time.
