We're out with an update & a plea: Evacuate if you're told to. This is not the storm you want to ride out and hope for the best. It's all about the surge, expected to be far worse than Helene in Tampa Bay and elsewhere. A very historic storm is on the way: theeyewall.com/historic-hurri…

@BroadhurstBooks I’m so sorry to hear.

We are incredibly sad to announce the permanent closure of Broadhursts. All the booksellers have been made redundant, & the shop will no longer open for trading with immediate effect. To claim refunds on deposits and Broadhursts vouchers please email litereria@aol.com

I firmly believe that time spent reading books should not be subtracted from your lifespan. You should be able to step aside into Book Time, spend as long there as you like, then resume Ordinary Life Time at the same point you left. Clearly a superior arrangement.

In Texas, the weather in September is just August with a tinge of hope.

We need more upper MG and lower YA books, and no they’re not the same. I want more YA books about freshmen and sophomore experiences and less about the first year of college. There is a HUGE gap there & it’s affecting readership in our high schools.

At Houston’s Museum of Natural Science - seems appropriate as we all recover from #Beryl - still no power at house.

My sister just got a birthday card I mailed four weeks ago. One state over. 🫤 I hope at least it had interesting travels.

@MaryAnnHelling I hope so!

@jennymosswrites Yes, great novels. Wonder if he’s still working on the next.

I'm on my third read of THE NAME OF THE WIND. Every few years, need to read again. What a great book. #thekingkillerchronicle

@mattlanza Just wanted to say, thanks for all you do to keep people safe.

Outages are down to about 327,000 now in Harris County. Almost 250k better than 24 hours ago. Here’s hoping further progress keeps up today.

Writing at Starbucks, in a chair circle with two young women working on high school research projects. Smart, collaborative, kind and grateful to one another. I know this happens all across U.S., world. Nice to get a glimpse of.

@csittenfeld Exciting!

Romantic Comedy just might become a...romantic comedy?! And I couldn't be more thrilled with all the talented people working on it ❤️💖💛 tinyurl.com/4x5k8k79

@kierstenwhite Awesome tweet.

@strategywoman Wishing you a lovely writing day.

6:41 pm in #Kyiv No power at home. No air raid alert in Kyiv. I’m at the Dancing Cafe. With tea. Tea? Yes. They serve it beautifully here. I’m going to write. Just to remind you the story of Dancing Cafe (my favorite place): buymeacoffee.com/warcoffee/an-a…

@mattlanza It's lovely (finally) out there.

Forecast verified: The clouds have broken. The sun’s awoken. Punxsutawney Phil ain’t got these skills.

@erinwinick @Astro_Jessica @v_wyche Congratulations!

I’m officially a NASA Silver Snoopy recipient! This award truly means so much and feels like such a career milestone. Thanks to my friends and family for all the support, and to @Astro_Jessica and @v_wyche for presenting me with the award.

Such an inspiring, fascinating talk by Austin’s @pj_hoover this afternoon about the stories of today’s top women coders and engineers in her new Problem Solvers! We’ve got signed copies!

The squirrels are gleefully testing my driving skills.

@paleopaws Sending you love and good wishes for things to get better. ❤️
