Always a Massachusetts angle. In this case, the origin of the weekend. You’re welcome.

@abbythecleric Yup. Been on Zoloft my entire adult life; happy to chat.

Hello if you have taken medication for OCD and it helped please tell me I'm apparently starting something this week but I cannot fathom that there is a reality out there where I don't constantly feel like an anxious ball of shit What do people even think about if it isn't worry

Here is your annual reminder that Stella Liebeck's 1994 lawsuit against McDonalds for the temperature of their hot coffee was because her injuries were so severe that she needed skin grafts. She suffered third-degree burns on 6% of her skin and lesser burns over 16%.

@Gwenda Hugs, and wishing you all the best.

Some sad personal news gwendabond.substack.com/p/some-sad-per…

Which is greater

@DoesItHvADragon Wednesday!

NEIBA buddies, I'm going to the first two days of the fall conference, who else will be there?

I'm just throwing this out there just in case, but like publishers know they don't have to release 40% of their books for the year on the first Tuesday in September right? They know of the other Tuesdays?

@StefWaterStBook Sending back all the editions of the Jan 6 report was a highlight of summer returns.

@SarahRettger Lol totally agree. Not my favorite type of item to sell 😬😬😬

Any one know how many pubs will have editions of the Trump Indictment? So far I've only seen Mariner. 👀

@StefWaterStBook (grumbles in Old Person, remembering the days when a neighbor took the drastic step of leaving his computer connected to the internet overnight so he could download the Starr Report over dial-up)

@StefWaterStBook Do they really think enough people will want a printed and bound copy to justify the production costs? And if they do, what is wrong with that hypothetical audience? Why do they want that as memorabilia?

@atrubek Have I pitched The Widows of Malabar Hill before? Or The Right Sort of Man?

Instead of watching the GOP debate I am reading and overthinking about labor and delivery.

The thing about taking a childbirth class based in Minnesota is that when the instructor mentions medical tape, she points out that it's a 3M product.

Bookseller says yes, please.

Come celebrate Josh tonight in Cambridge!

i had fun writing the first half of this es*ay draft and it flowed really easily and then the last week i've had a crisis of confidence and it has been so hard to get even single sentence down I HATE THIS

@Hippiechick68 Do it! Grew up with a mom who went gray at a young age and never dyed, so I'm a fan. (Of course, once I started getting white hairs she did tell me several times that there was nothing wrong with coloring them if I wanted to!)

@twistedrufus I have no idea how my cat went through 17 cans of food in one week, but I am impressed.

Someone tell me something good, I’m too depressed to move.

@KatherineBook Yeah, that's a move I'm not actually going to complain about.

@SarahRettger Simon.... which is, well, better at distribution that Diamond at least. Not until January though.

Yo. Image is leaving Diamond??? 👀
