@chlomill_ @kateberlant 👀

good morning everyone last night at 4 AM a grown man we do not know came into our hotel room because a security guard UNLOCKED IT AND LET HIM IN because he said his room key “didn’t work” and apparently they did not investigate any further and just let him into our room. anyhoo

@SVPROJECTSLDN katieshelly.art - I lived in manchester for a bit :)

Looking for some Manchester based artists (doesn’t need to be in Manchester or born there but must have connection somehow). Please send me your portfolios on this thread or tag anyone you think would be good. 😊

@joncoopertweets Bagel

Without naming it, what state are you from?

@DrBeltranGrimm Congrats Susie!! <3

@tomfroese I might recommend joining @AuthorsGuild - I’m a member and have made use of their legal support. @theaoi could probably also help too if you’re already a member.

@tomfroese @mikepriebe @meandorla @ohn_mar_win The book map is also usually the editor and/or book designer’s job… you should be compensated if you’re taking this work off the publisher’s plate.. are you working with an agent (or someone who can help you charge what you’re worth?)

@tomfroese Sounds like they might be taking advantage of your skills. Most authors don’t have layout skills so the publisher has to hire a designer. If you’re eliminating the need for your publisher to hire a layout designer, your compensation should reflect that.

@MaxRivlinNadler Compromise: the senior housing is redesigned to include a street-facing public park with accessible multigenerational design and seasonal programming that encourage local children to engage and interact with seniors living in the center.

Hey everyone, just putting this sign up letting you know the city is planning on doing something indisputably good for people who desperately need housing... and WE hate it!

@jeff_greger @Suitpossum @janchip @erinbtaylor_ @royal_t14 @iodave @ajfaas Count me in! Sounds like a good Halloween read, LOL!

Picked this up from the bookstore today! Congrats @Suitpossum. Who's down to compare notes? @janchip @erinbtaylor_ @royal_t14 @iodave @ajfaas @interkatie

Hey, thank you! 🥰

@JessBuildsTech Two very unsophisticated suggestions: you could make it mandatory, or offer rewards (gift cards? A prize after attending 5 times?)

@laura_yarrow I live by this!

This is so important, your calendar is not just a list of obligations to others. Plan your work. Make time for doing the work, before committing to everyone else's stuff!

@tomfroese This is one of my favorite questions

@interkatie arranged a wreath of friendly farmers, foods, and foliage to illustrate our mission of securing food and land commons for the next generation of farmers. The shirts are sustainably sourced, ethically produced, and printed to order. 💚⁠ agrariantrust.org/shop/

@neilswaab @ellenLupton knows all about this!

I started a new job this week as a service designer at @CapitalOne✨. In 2016 I did my MA thesis on financial inclusion and banking services, so I’m excited to geek out about improving banking for everyday people. Also excited to re-join the #servicedesign convo on here.

@heoj I visited something like 25 schools in New England. Meandered around the campuses, did tours. I didn't know what I wanted to study, so wasn't looking for a particular department. There was something intangible about the vibe at @wesleyan_u that I liked. Truly followed my gut.

How did you decide which college to go to?

@joshuamauldin Spend lots of time perfecting every detail before sending your first draft over to the client.

Homeownership sounds like a great idea...until things start to stack up 😬 #EditorialIllustration #AcrylicInk
