TREAD: Will I be attempting #1000wordsofsummer this year? Sure! I’m having trouble putting pen to paper lately (or fingers to keyboard), so maybe this will help. I’ll be using the prompts in my Writing Down the Bones card deck to get the juices flowing💕 Happy writing!

When I was younger, I wanted an American Girl doll SO badly. I wanted Samantha or Molly, but we couldn’t afford one. For my anniversary, I hinted at wanting Claudie, a new doll being released. When I opened that box and saw that doll, I became a kid again and openly sobbed 🥹

As someone who actually runs the romance section at a very large indie bookstore, let me tell you this: if you’re a bookstore and you’re not stocking romance, then you don’t understand the current culture of the bookstore industry. I can’t keep that section stocked!

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it’s okay to ask for an extension. Everyone is stressed out. We are all tired. Ask for more time.

More information coming next week, but as of today, your girl is officially a small business owner in the state of Oregon! I’m usually so damn hard of myself, but instead, today, I feel immensely proud instead 💖💖💖

@JackOfA18378007 I don’t think that you know what incels are. She’s not blaming men for not finding her attractive or demanding that they pay attention to her. A lot of Black women have felt this way, especially in schools where they were the minority. Instead of invalidating, listen to us.

Coming back to say that I, uh, didn’t expect that tweet to go viral. I don’t have anything to promote at this time, but have a good day!

The fact that I met multiple dudes who found me intimidating once they realized that I get paid for my writing and have been published and now I’m with a dude that tells his friends that I’m Twitter famous and that I know David Sedaris and he’s proud of me is insane and cool.

Your girl is trying something new to spice up the dating column that she has to write, so help me find a date? So here’s the basics: I’m 26. I live in Portland. I love reading, writing, drinking beer, Frasier, my cat Ramona, and bad reality television. Read more in the comments💕

I went to Lush a few weeks back, and felt like I really bonded on the cashier, so I slipped her my number (and told her that she absolutely didn’t need to text me if she didn’t want to; no pressure!) and she texted and we hung out for four hours yesterday and it was really nice🥺

@muunstar @agoraphobia69 @alyssawaking @chuggincorn @nintendo6664 He apologized for everything. He said that he reminded me, and that he should have never said those things. Mind you, he was a chubby middle schooler so I doubt that things were good for him either. He said that he was grateful that I had reached out.

@iSmashFizzle Ashley, when I opened the package, I started blubbering “you—-got me an—American Girl doll?” And then, when we went to Chicago on our anniversary trip, we went to the big store and I got to see so many things! This is us eating in the cafe too! 😂
