While driving grandson to the movies, we were blasting classic rock in the car, because he is being raised right. Joan Jett was singing how much she loves rock n roll ... and Xavier asked "What does it mean, Put another dime in the jukebox?"

@NJSimmondsbooks I rewrote my entire trilogy from scratch once I got a publisher.

I've written entire 95k word novels and deleted the whole lot 😆 (I refuse to put my name to something I'm not happy with)

The Traveler’s Magic is with a fan visiting Hawaii this week!

@NJSimmondsbooks So cool!

Nothing to see here, just a 16th century library they discovered in a Peruvian monastery complete with 25,000 books and bibles (mostly handwritten). And those stairs!!! Zoom in...

My ebooks are on sale now until April 17th! If you haven't read them yet, now's your chance! indiebook.sale

@NJSimmondsbooks Not film, but there’s a TV show podcast called Talkville which is a Smallville rewatch podcast by the actors. When they have on producers, directors, or the DP they dive deep into the craft. I find it fascinating.

Recommendations for podcasts about film, directors, foreign films, Latino films, and storytelling please!!!

@NJSimmondsbooks VE Schwab’s No Write Way for storytelling.

@NJSimmondsbooks Oh golly

On the phone to a young lad helping me with my website tech support. Him: You're a writer? What do you write? Me: Thrillers and fantasy Him: If you like fantasies, you should check out 50 Shades of Grey Me: Not that kind of...never mind

@KarenEisenbrey @ElChandler Awww- yay! 😁

@ElChandler The Healer's Magic, book 3 of @CjHosack 's Beads of Bone trilogy.

What book are you reading right now? 📚📚

@Sparkeysf @dieworkwear It’s an art form that’s open to everyone. Try it and enjoy!

@CjHosack @dieworkwear I find that the older I get, the less I care about what other people think, and the more inclined I am to participate in pastimes that were traditionally limited to women. Quilting, knitting, etc., look like a lot of fun. 😅

Many jackets can cost $2k and more. Much depends on the material and how it's made. You don't see this bc you are disconnected from the production process and only think about clothes as objects. Marx called this commodity fetishism. IG ninapenlingtonbespoke and sartoria_salino

@Sparkeysf @dieworkwear Yay for grandma! You can do that, but fabrics from clothing can be of different blends that stretch differently, and can already have wear. Most quilters choose 100% cotton quilt fabric bought at quilt shops (sometimes during a quilt shop hop) at $12.99-15.99 a yard or more.

@CjHosack @dieworkwear I always thought quilters tended to use material from used and discarded clothing. Or at least that's what my grandmother used to do 😅 I've still got a few that she made many years ago.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Here’s a fun fact about The Healer’s Magic. Special credit to Lehonti Pérez Ovalle and his ability to be epic!

@NJSimmondsbooks Ooo- yeah, light damage.

I loved having an office with a wall of glass....but it destroyed my books 😭😭😭
