Once In Life
@ElainaCScott That's awesome!! I miss it, but I had to sort of divide my life in a way that made it sustainable once she was born and I had SO many complications (trapped placenta, hemorrhaged three weeks after she was born, bled for 5 months, D&C). I'd go back in a heartbeat. Enjoy it!!

Looking for Red
Angela Johnson
LOOKING FOR RECS: I'm aching for some grounded fantasy/sci-fi. I read a book from the library I thought would scratch that itch and it did NOT. Some of my FAVS are: Neverwhere, Through Violet Eyes, 1984, Kendra Donovan Series, Dresden Files, etc. Any book recs in those lines?

The Color of Water: A Black Man's Tribute to His White Mother
James McBride
@GeoffThorne My 8th grade teacher said that we could choose any books we wanted for our group assignments. That year I read Contact by Carl Sagan and The Color of Water by James McBride. I'm so thankful we were allowed the space to explore. Every kid should read what they like.

Holy Mother Forking Shirt Balls!: 6x9 120 Page Count Notebook
Keepsake Journals
HOLY MOTHER FORKING SHIRT-BALLS. The COOLEST idea for a TV series struck me as I was walking to the mailbox. That's it! Simply checking the mailbox. It's so weird and unique, but I love it. Urban fantasy (so me), but unlike anything I've written. I might write this next. 🤣 https://t.co/cYJUwZ2QyQ
