Surely someone has a great idea for how to use this $10M from @Airbnb to provide affordable shelter for the unhoused...or to subsidize sky-high rents...or.... airbnb.com/d/omgfund
For those of us who grew up in multi-lingual households, this all rings so true. I'd never heard of the phrase "heritage language" before - noted!
Thanks @RadioMirage for making all us heritage language learners feel seen (and, er, heard/read/written.)
Trying to learn the language your parents speak can come with frustration and shame. You're not alone! @RadioMirage shares her journey and tips on how to learn your heritage language. n.pr/3MsTY6b

Shout out to Kristiana Kahakauwila & my @kundimanforever classmates for a successful workshop. As Tiana said: "The goal is to help the writer come back to their piece with new understanding, fresh energy & a sense of excitement to try some next steps in their writing." DONE! ✅
For, #AAPIHeritageMonth a question for my #writingcommunity: Who has stories about indigenous/aboriginal Asian-Americans? I do but I feel alone. Looking for kindred spirits.

One of my favorite things about #EverythingEverywhereAllAtOnce was the seamless transitions between Cantonese, Mandarin & English. Finally, an American film depicting multilingual Chinese families with some semblance of accuracy. 🙌 #AAPIHeritageMonth
@taekeller I’ve just started reading MG novels as an adult and yours is such a beautiful story of grief and acceptance, told with perfect pacing. ✨ The pages turned on their own.
Thanks to @NaNoWriMo, I met this month's goal of writing 10,000 words of my first novel 🤯 The scenes don't all fit together, I don't know where the plot is headed, I probably have to rethink the whole premise, and most of the writing is trash. But I did it! 🙌 #writingcommunity

Just got my syllabus and reading assignments for my first @kundimanforever workshop, "Writing Into Mixedness" w/ Kristiana Kahakauwila, starting May 2. So excited to finally dig in! 💜 #WritingCommunity #hapa
Whoops 😖 I got disqualified from the @wordisdiversity Editor-Writer Mentorship because I didn't follow the application instructions properly. Grateful they still gave me high-level feedback on my #picturebook & encouraged me to keep writing. Every mistake is a lesson! Onward!
