Do dragons get heartburn?

Don't drink and paint 😂 Can you see what's wrong in this picture?

All the 80s/90s nostalgia this summer makes me miss Daria, so I channeled her for a new painted profile pic. #newprofilepic

Re-watched Captain Marvel tonight, letting the 8yo stay up late to watch it with us. Of course I had to explain to him what a Blockbuster was. He also wondered why we were laughing at the computer errors and loading bars. 😂😭👵🏼 👧🏼: me, age 4ish 📷: one of my parents 🗓: circa 1992 🤔 Why was my mom or dad using up precious film taking a picture of me inside a Blockbuster (or whatever movie rental variety Fargo had at the time)? 📼❇📟 #captainmarvel #WhenIWasYourAge #80s #90s #andtoday

Almost July but I FINALLY got up to the lake. I have the perfect swoony lake/river summer read, too! When Summer Ends by @jessicapennington 💔⚾️🛶🖼💏🖌😍🎆🎣🚣‍♀️ #lakereads #whensummerends #jessicapennington

Neville is very groggy this morning because we stayed up late reading Technically You Started It, which will bring you ALL the flirting-by-texting feels and whose characters will validate your soul in ways yet to be revealed. I agree, @muliebris, this book is so delightfully you. (Also I cackled at the all-caps usage on page 310, nearly waking my kids.) #TechnicallyYouStartedIt #tysi #bookhangover #scholasticYA

Happy book birthday to @muliebris and #TechnicallyYouStartedIt! 😍🍦😍🍦😍🍦😍🍦😍🍦😍🍦 I knew this day would come (not only because I colored in today's date on my calendar as soon as I bought a 2019 one, but also because I've known since we met I'd be holding your book baby someday)!

Did you see the big, gorgeous moon this week? A bright orange bulb shining over the lake. Besides book therapy and therapy-therapy, I'm not sure there's anything more therapeutic than a moonlit walk with my trusty pup. × THE GIRL WHO DRANK THE MOON by Kelly Barnhill × × What are your current reads? × The countdown to my third MFAC residency has begun, and I have so much to do around the house before my critical thesis semester begins, and so many health issues to puzzle out from the past year of too much sitting. Must move somewhere non-frigid moonlit walks can happen year-round.

Read "7 Reasons to Make Me Your Editor."

In 2015, I assembled a team of freelance editors of various specialties.
