Literally almost slipped to my death on a sewer cover + wet cherry pit that some evil-doer spit in the middle of the sidewalk with murderous intent.

I trust in God. I trust in my family. I trust in my friends. I trust in the resiliency of The People and our ability to overcome when conditions are bleak and extreme. I trust in US, because we are the ones we’ve been waiting for.

I’m trying to do this thing where, any time I feel the impulse to tweet something political, I either save it as a draft and/or post about my book instead. So … grab your copy of Guardians of the @Cosmic_Clocks! It’s about claiming your power and fighting for justice!

My mother read The Chronicles of Narnia to us before we could read, and that series largely inspired Guardians of the @Cosmic_Clocks.

It is the responsibility of the international community to ensure a long-term agreement that affords Palestinians sovereignty. Until self-governance exists, the situation will remain untenable.

So overjoyed for the People of Gaza celebrating food and no bombing. Let’s make sure it stays this way.

Good prose is special and important. I’m not talking plot, or character, or dialogue. It’s the way you weave your thoughts together. The command you have. Your voice. Remember, writing is about more than telling a story. It’s about how you paint the canvass.

Donald Trump is talking about a “very serious left-wing terrorist threat” within the country and I can just tell this is going to work out splendidly.
