Detainees at Florida’s “Alligator Alcatraz” are on a hunger strike over what they call inhumane, dangerous conditions.
Some haven’t eaten in 10 days. One of them, Pedro Hernández, was hospitalized and still refuses food until they are treated with dignity.

Back in the Twitter days my daughter would read for people their first chapters up to the first five for $5 a chapter. She would like to do that again to earn money for the draft horse she still wants. If you want a 13yr olds perspective on your #mg or #ya let me know and we can connect.

Remember when #Twitter was a glorious place for #writers and the #amquerying crowd? I miss those days. I left Twitter a long time ago and I won't go back but I miss the glory days. But I still have friendships and #cps I connected with there that I will always be thankful for!

I've worked with Jamie and she's great!
Sharing more widely now! Working in managing editorial, I don't always get to interact with authors, and I miss it. So in addition to working in house, I'm reopening to freelance editing!
If you need a developmental or copy editor, I'd love to hear from you:

Schumer and these 10 Senate Democrats overplayed their hand. They think people will forget and move on. They won't. Schumer just sealed the end of his leadership. It's done. Just a matter of when. Tick Tock.
