Publication date for LOVE AND OTHER INCURABLE AILMENTS--Coming 10/27/2026!

When love letters from a bereaved stranger land in her lap, an anxious overthinker becomes convinced she’s the cure & sets off to save him, & herself, blissfully armed with nothing but her magical thinking. #booksky
Congressional Republicans are whining, crying and quitting because they no longer have power.

They need to ask themselves WhoTF did they give it to? It’s not like it was stolen or anything.

I was so disappointed in the pumpkin pie that I got for Thanksgiving (overly spiced!!) that I was forced to go to the bakery today and buy something for myself.

The husband worked very hard at this. I would like to share his accomplishment.

He asked that I keep his technique a secret.

THE BOOK OF QUIET GIRLS WHO BURN

...To the employer who gave me a gold necklace but told me never to wear it at work,
To the guy who date r*ped me in a warehouse loft,
To the guy who parked in the woods & shoved my head into his crotch...

Quiet, pig

I’m fired up to have my poem “The Book of Girls Who Burn” appear on New Verse News today.

It’s for all the girls and women who grew up hearing quiet piggy.

I love this Linda, thank you for writing it. I’d like to share it with so many people I know. The holidays are hard for a lot of people who don’t have perfect family situations, me included! This is good advice for all.
As the holidays get closer, I find myself wanting to ask one small favor of my friends: Please don’t ask me what I’m doing for Thanksgiving or Christmas. After the holidays, please don’t ask how mine were.

I remember the days when avocado green was a popular color for appliances but hardly anyone had seen a real avocado!

I wrote a poem THE BOOK OF QUIET GIRLS WHO BURN listing all the shit that happened to me growing up. I’m sure many other women could add to it. It felt good to write it and end it with
“I remember every one of you.
Quiet. Quiet piggy.”

We should never be quiet.

A new transparency feature on X reveals that many loud, “patriotic” voices in the MAGA ecosystem aren’t located in the US at all. A shocking number operate Russia, Nigeria, India, Thailand & other countries.

So glad I left that cesspool!

My 17 YO granddaughter’s hand drawn design for the Felix Foundation is available on a coffee cup. All proceeds help the fox sanctuary! 🦊 I’m proud of her drawing skills and creativity. This is Gypsy, Rusty & Clover, actual foxes the sanctuary.

I cannot wait to hear what my dearly loved brother, a super conservative Republican, thinks about Mamdani (“the big bad Socialist”) now.

I’m getting giddy just thinking about it.
