Another of Wednesday Addams's best lines: . "I act as if I don't care if people dislike me. Deep down. I secretly enjoy it.". Her favorite words?."Pathetic." "Hate." "Kill." "Dislike." "Darkness.". And somehow, she makes them feel like poetry.

Good Tweeting Friday. What are you working on today? Drop a line 👇

Once upon a time, TV gave us On Golden Pond. And even the commercials had heart. Folgers told better stories in half a minute than streaming does in a season. “The best part of wakin’ up is Folgers in your cup.”

Good morning. Tweety made parole.

Books used to be good. One dog. One bullet. Lifetime of trauma.

Modern kids get participation trophies. We got Where the Red Fern Grows and a front-row seat to grief. Emotional Butchery served on a fine silver platter.

A commenter asked me,.“What are you going to do today, Jacobs?”. My mind doesn’t work like most. It went straight to Pinky and the Brain. I was going to write Chapter 6. A slow-burn deepening of my mains’ romantic arc. Instead, I typed back:.“The same thing we do every day,

Damn. Up 15 days straight. Maybe I should’ve had the tea. @RobertIrvine.

Still the greatest South Park episode of all time. Revenge served cold… with chili. Revenge is a dish best served as your parents disguised as chili. So sayeth Cartman.

🍔Some books are all bun. No beef. 🥩I write for readers who want a double-stack of plot, character, and stakes. ⏳Throwback to 1984: Where’s the beef?

Wednesday S2: Best quotes so far 🖤. “I have FOBI (fear of being included).”. “If you can’t kill them with kindness, there’s always lethal injection.”. You have FOMO. I have FOBI. One ends in awkward small talk. The other ends in a satisfying stretch…of someone else’s limbs.

3–4 lightning strikes every second. The sky isn’t just lit, it’s alive. ⚡️🌩 Gotta love Texas weather.

Some stories demand to be written. Mine haunted me until I changed my life to tell it. The book I’m writing has been in my head for years. At first, I thought it would be a romance. As the story took shape, I realized it was something else entirely: a conspiracy thriller. Talk
