We apologize to our Ukrainian supporters. We are embarrassed by how our president and vice president have behaved. We are fighting to redeem the soul of America. 🇺🇸

I wish I could give Zelenskyy a big hug. I know it won’t do anything, but I feel so bad for him and I am ashamed of my country.

Here is the pre-RFK vaccination schedule for your kids. Please download it before he is confirmed and changes/deletes it.

Give it to your pediatrician and say this is the schedule you want your kids on.

The Alaska Senate unanimously adopted a resolution calling on President Donald Trump to reverse his order changing the name of North America’s tallest peak. The Senate joined the House in approving the resolution. adn.com/politics/ala...

The most transformative courses I took during my time at Ga Tech were in Earth and Atmospheric Sciences. They had nothing to do with my areas of study, and I struggled through the physics to pass. But what I learned there about the climate and how it changes was pored into A Burden of Ice and Bone.

Authors, raise your hand if your books are political 🙋🏻‍♀️

I'd like to propose turning off candidates microphones and installing yes/no buttons for all confirmation hearings.

I wish I had the writing confidence I possessed when I had no idea what I was doing.

It was 47F in Fairbanks, Alaska yesterday, which broke the record high for the day by 8 degrees. If I'd wanted this kind of weather, I could have stayed in the South.

(But I still prefer Alaska)

I seem to have hit the Alaska blue sky community, but what about authors in Alaska? Are any of those hanging around?

Today I am in transition chapter hell.

Why are these the hardest to write?

It’s kind of fun being on the other side and watching the Lower 48 freak out like Buddy the Elf about snow.

I was telling my husband about the one toy Santa was never able to bring me when I was a kid (not from lack of trying), and this was supposed to be in my stocking this year (it just arrived. Because AK) 5-year-old me is so excited, but also sad I no longer have any turtles for her to hang with.

Can Netflix movies win Oscars? Because The Six Triple Eight deserves all of them.

In one of my favorite Christmas movies, the CEO falls off a roof and the workers keep chugging along like nothing happens. In fact, when the replacement shows up, no one even seems to notice.

I can think of a few people who could use a haunting by 3 spirits tonight.

Writing books is really easy…

… Compared to getting them marketed, read, and reviewed by actual readers.

I’m a little sad that darkness is going to start slipping away at the end of the week.

Or here ➡️ www.barnesandnoble.com/w/a-burden-o...

Or from your favorite indie bookstore or library.

It’s the coziest time of year! Check out my newest book, a fairy tale retelling of East of the Sun, West of the Moon. If you loved Spinning Silver and A Curse So Dark and Lonely, give it a read! Available through all major book retailers, indie stores, and libraries—even Libby!

I can’t be the only one who thinks knickknacks on book shelves are a waste of space that could be used for more books, right?
