A fantastic evening of Authors and books! Such a treat when the people you love in theory turn out to be even more incredible in person. I'm talking about you, @BiancaM_author! So kind, so generous, so clever. Fangirl goals, indeed!.

Hey, @TSNOTYAW, @BiancaM_author, @ceciliaclyra, @carlywatters, look what my friend @sepasha surprised me with this morning? During the #TSNOTYAWRETREAT, she messaged me "Don't look at that necklace!" It only takes one yes!

Inspired by the @TSNOTYAW Writing Retreat this weekend, just pulled this stack off my shelves. Excited to keep pushing the current draft of my #WIP to the end--and then revise, again! #TSNOTYAWretreat #WritingCommmunity #amwriting #amwritingfiction

Look what arrived today. Can't wait to read it and to see @BiancaM_author at the @Worcester_PL event on Nov. 3 being interviewed by @sepasha. Be there and support writers and libraries!

Pure. Comic. Genius.

Beware the people of books. .

I was skeptical, but it actually works! Rubber duck tea steeper:

What do you do when it's literally 100 degrees out? Head to a bookstore! Added to my TBR pile with help from @TSNOTYAW with these and tried my best to hand sell Emily Henry's "Book Lovers" to a total stranger.

Who wants to snuggle?

Cannot thank @sepasha enough for the generous gift of feedback from @ceciliaclyra on my #WIP. So many ideas percolating that will improve the work thanks to the insights of the amazing @ceciliaclyra! #powerwomen.

If you love love and you love books, check out "Book Lovers" by Emily Henry. The first book that's kept me up reading in a while, and my heart is still glowing days after finishing. Thanks for the recommendation @TSNOTYAW!.

Hey, @ceciliaclyra, I've got my vacation reading. Can't wait for both--the vacation and the reading!

Mermaids!

Tonight's fairy.

Tonight's fairy: mermaids princess.

When I'm not writing, this happens:

Love it. Applies to everything.

Loved Emily Henry's comments on the @TSNOTYAW interview with @BiancaM_author to keep nudging the work forward and trust that "future Emily" will be able to fix the story. That's going in my self-talk toolkit!.

Very much appreciated @BiancaM_author mentioning "the yips" in a recent episode of @TSNOTYAW. I have them ALL the time. My only remedies are to just keep going until I finish this draft, and to try to keep up the positive self-talk. Would love to hear any other approaches.

Disgusted by @LeaderMcConnell. You have "leader" in your Twitter handle--the audacity, when everyone else knows what needs to be done and you refuse. For once in your life, LEAD.
