PRO TIP

I know no one cares 😂 but I’ll quit neglecting this app soon! I don’t know how y’all keep up with so many…

Hell is empty, And all the devils are here.

Hands down, the best miniseries of all time.

I so often have my publisher/editor hat on, that I forget how much time & energy is put into writing a well-crafted novel until I’m writing one again. It really makes me appreciate all the writers I know. To all of you out there doing the thing—you’re amazing. Don’t let the world tell you otherwise🖤

Now reading 💜✨ First book of the year! @quillandcrowpublishinghouse.com

Forever 2 & 1 ☕️🔪

Real talk: what do y’all think of dual perspectives in a novel? (And I mean split properly by chapters, I’m not a monster 😂)

Lies I tell myself 😂

Though I have an MLIS and ended up a publisher instead, I’m still passionate about the fact that everyone has the right to receive information. I panic often when I think of how many people rely on social media for info and how filtered it is according to politics and the opinions of billionaires.

This fucking movie 😂😭

There a few things I love more than popcorn.

I’m dying that they labeled it adult content like what 😂

That canceled TV show you’ll never stop thinking about 😭

I had really high hopes for Threads and it became Twitter-esque in a few months. I don’t think there’s a solution. Apps get toxic because people are toxic. I just bounce around from different apps hoping I miss the bullshit 😅

I really don’t want to call them “skeets” 😅🤣

For my mental health, I’ve intentionally stepped back this year from the retail frenzy that hits me each holiday season, but I still gotta pay my bills 😅 so I’d really love if you’d consider picking up some books & candles from TheCrowShoppe.com as a lil treat or for holiday gifts. Thank you 🖤

How do folks really feel about starter packs? I made one to be helpful, but now I’m seeing it’s just another way for the “writing community” to continue being cliquey and exclusive (Twitter Circles vibes). I don’t want to give off that impression…

Hi, new followers! I still haven’t got the hang of this app yet but I’m happy you’re all here. I write, run a publishing house, and love weird, spooky shit. Welcome! 🖤🦇

How are olives both delicious and disgusting at the same time? 🤣

I feel like we need more historical fiction. I understand folks don’t want to read actual history books & it’s getting harder to find reliable resources on the Internet. I worry our history is getting lost in all the noise, & understanding (and not repeating) history is key to our evolution.
