@MindyRCarlson Not far behind you. See you elsewhere. :)

@Jeff_Circle I mean, don’t get me wrong, I could use a good cursed ball.

@ChernLina Getting you that ball for your birthday.

@swierczy I could have used some turkey jerky after our ten minutes in the howling wind, but all we got was stupid Twix.

I’m at the writing office today and I’m hoping I don’t get too many trick-or-treaters. All I have on hand are a couple sticks of turkey jerky and a bunch of Black Lizard paperback doubles.

@ADHDForReal I’ve got one that’s dark blue midnight of the soul, does that count?

@cmattwrite 😂ok so I read the article and it’s not as dire as the headline makes it seem, but sheesh

@kellyekell Amazing! RIP.

@whoisdansully @PrintersRowFest Great to meet you, too! Loved the reading.

Nice to meet you, Lina! What a perfect day for @PrintersRowFest!

@MaroftheBooks All of the above and also maps!

Writers, I’m curious: As a kid, did you read encyclopedias/dictionaries/thesauruses/reference books for fun? Or was I just weird?

@cmattwrite YES.

@RobSmith3 Great pics! I miss all of you! ❤️❤️
