A friend of mine, Laura Creedle, wrote an amazing book about #neurodivergent characters: #adhd and #autism respectively. It's really wonderful, trad published, and just had its price get reduced at Amazon. Consider picking it up if you've been looking for #representation or just want to read a cute #romance about incredibly realistic characters -- Laura herself has ADHD and has a wonderful blog about living with it.

For Seattle folks who read #horror #scifi or #fantasy, there is an author reading coming up hosted by a group that organized a cool event I went to LA Festival of Books:

(I am in no way affiliated with the group nor have I read any of the authors, but the one I went to was fun.)

Research book arrived today. recently learned a #protip for my fellow #amwriting folks--All those really expensive research books you can't figure out how to afford? ABE Books and Better World Books will connect you to literally thousands of used book stores.

Got a $50 research book for under $5 in good condition.

(I am a very happy author right now.)

Because all art is political—and art from marginalized folks even more so.

Reminder, this month and every month: This country was built on the backs of Black bodies.

Kidling is hooked on My LIttle Pony, so of course, I'm watching it with her.

And damnit, I just want those fillies to get their Cutie Marks already! #mlp
