@blgtylr I did talk with Tom Jenks about his editing The Garden of Eden, and Hemingway’s understanding of androgyny and more was surprising; Ernest knew that machismo as he played it sold well, but he could have done a lot more.

In fiction workshop today I had to smile when I revealed that having two main characters in a story named Phillip and Maurice was a definitive Earth, Wind & Fire lead vocals reference. #writing #WritingCommunity #writinglife

@NMamatas citizens who could attend for free, but who were good writers. So my experience didn’t match yours. We never created huge debt for anyone. We provided people with advanced degrees, and many have published. Just this spring, Matt Siegel, The Secret History of Food.

@RonFilipkowski @LilyBelle05 Wow, listening to all of this, we have fear mongering at its finest, even invoking the dark and the light like an old reform preacher. It’s 2022, though, and we know better. No one leader will save the country, and least of all Trump who ran up the natl. debt to 29 trillion.

@tedcruz And you’re a Trump loyalist after he called white supremacist groups at Charlottesville rallying about a Robert E. Lee statue “very fine people,” and one of them, James Alex Fields Jr. was convicted of murder after running Heather Heyer down with his automobile.

LOL, a workshop story up today about two pot smoking brothers who are also pot dealers, and the author hadn’t ever watched a Cheech & Chong movie, or read TC Boyle’s Budding Prospects. I’m simply old enough to have lived a while. https://t.co/k8Zlq45ZzM
