A retelling that flips popular fairytale tropes
-The prince is cursed
-Her kiss seals the curse
-She goes on a quest
-She saves him
Retelling of East of the Sun, West of the Moon. Perfect low-spice alternative to popular dragon romantasies.

Today a student asked me if a word needed a “flying comma”.
He meant apostrophe, but I think I’m going to call them flying commas from now on just because it makes me smile 😊

Tonight on a zoom call I wrote down three recommendations to add to my to-be-read pile. Victor sighed heavily and glared at my current tbr pile.
I WILL READ THEM ALL, VICTOR. BUY ME MORE BOOKSHELVES.

My wife asked why it’s so cold. I said that on average the universe is -454° Fahrenheit, so 35° is actually pretty balmy.
I do not think that was the answer she wanted.

10yo, overheard in class:
“My mom’s a writer but hasn’t written a single book! She keeps taking these zoom classes which means I have to take care of the dog. So yeah not that great. But when your mom’s a writer you learn a lot. I use commas now & quotations marks. Fancy stuff.”
