I’m disabled and literally started writing and querying in 2019 while living in a homeless shelter. Implying that disabled or poor people need AI is gross.

Lol my mentions are full of AI fans talking about how it’s ableist not to consider people with “great ideas” writers simply because they don’t in fact write, and my dude, ideas are dirt cheap. They mean nothing. I get ten book ideas daily. Writing is what breathes life into ideas

Happy #bookbirthday to Brenda Maier and #soniasanchez! 💚💚💚

If you see this child being posted and referred to as the Georgia shooter, please report. This Colt was my neighbor and lives in Oklahoma. Unfortunately someone found his photo and shared and it’s gone viral. So much harm has already been done to him and his family from this.

❤️ Yesterday, we welcomed 18 wonderful Veterans who worked at Bletchley Park during WW2 to return to the once top-secret site for the Annual Veterans’ Reunion. Aged between 97 to (almost) 102, Veterans enjoyed an afternoon tea in the Mansion, spending time together, with family

Wow! This is lovely. Wishing the Princess of Wales continued recovery.

Your boy is officially a PUBLISHED author 💚 I couldn’t be happier that my Ghanaian mythology story is out in the world. Black boys have always deserved to be the heroes of their own stories, and I hope you love this story as much as I loved writing it. See you in Asamando 🇬🇭
