LEGENDS & LATTES+ARSENIC&ADOBO+KISS HER ONCE FOR ME Invisible people are missing. Sounds like a punch line, but for El, it’s a case only she can solve. W/the help of a friend—& lover?—she scrambles to find the killer before the next name on his list is her own #QuestPit #Q #A #RF

Hey @PoPville @BarredinDC and @maustermuhle, The Yards Collection in Navy Yard is sheltering/colluding with The National Guard. Is there any sort of story there? Because evidently resident complaints mean nothing.

@PoPville @BarredinDC @maustermuhle evidently the national guard let kids into our building who didn't live there and then the kids assaulted a resident, leaving her with a concussion. NOW is there a story there?

The most unrealistic thing about zombie movies is the pretense that we wouldn’t be made to work right through it.

Sibling: What is it when one thing adds to another and they become something different? Oh! The Hegelian dialectic! Me: …I was thinking Ratatouille.

Hey Writing Community! I recently received a glowing review that ended in a pass. One concern was that "new-adult speculative fiction outside the romance-led space is a particularly narrow trade category." Should I respond to say I have a strong romantic subplot, or let it lie?

Yeah, sex is great, but have you ever reread something you wrote and actually loved it?

You know you were raised near Appalachia when you hear a random whistle outside at night and immediately tell yourself “no the fuck you didn’t.”

We need a finishing school for Boomers. Instead of teaching which fork to use or how to curtsy, it'd be like why you shouldn't email everyone all at once or how to format an internet post, including why all caps and random capitals are bad form. #BoomerFinishingSchool

Of course, we also need history and economics classes for Boomers, but that’s a subject for a different post.

I just thought that heaven would be a diet coke where the last sip is the best sip (instead of the worst sip) and I may have a problem

Even though she's old, she still gets excited when she sees her owner! ❤️❤️

Those who are caught can’t remember anything. The government wiped their minds, & Mer wants to make sure it won’t happen again. But how will she escape govt agents, deal with betrayal, & let herself return a traitor’s love🌈 if the govt puts a chip in her head? #QuestPit #Q #NA

When an invisible woman saves El’s life, she thinks she’s crazy. But Anne is real & in the middle of a real mystery: invisible people are disappearing. El dives into the mystery—& a romance with Anne—but will competing interests blind her until it’s too late? #QuestPit #Q #A #RF

HUNGER GAMES+FOREST RUNNERS+THE PRINCESS BRIDE It started as a simple love story: 1 spy, 1 gal, & 1 govt mind-control chip designed to wipe memories. Add out-of-control agents & a secret rebellion—plus betrayal & ptsd—and this meet just got a whole lot less cute. #QuestPit #Q #NA
