When your 4yo insists on doing her own nail polish but it ends up looking like she manually dismembered a Smurf.

I love how in #TheLastOfUs they’re giving subtle hints of certain aspects of Ellie’s character that come into play in the second game (and presumably Season 2).

I should add that this occurred while watching American Ninja Warrior, so the notion of same sex marriage didn’t excite her quite as much as there being an obstacle called the Salmon Ladder.

Daughter saw on TV that two girls were married and asked if girls could marry girls and I said girls can marry girls and boys can marry boys and you can marry whoever you love and she smiled and said “That’s nice” and my heart grew three sizes.

Me when my kids were born: “You’re going to eat nutritious, balanced meals every day.”
Me now: “How many days in a row have you had mac & cheese? Nine? Whatever, ten won’t hurt you.”

I don’t see half the tweets of people I follow. I’ve learned about so many great authors and books here and I feel like I’m missing out because of this sh*tty new algorithm.

A big part of writing is thinking. Just staring off into space and letting words and scenes and characters slowly form. The spaciest people can be the most creative.

I feel like kids activities are getting out of hand. My daughters have art class, cooking class, dance class, swim lessons, gymnastics, and ice skating. They are 4 and 5. When I was their age my activities were Super Mario Bros. and whatever books were in my room.

How to write with small children:
Step 1: Offer them a snack
Step 2: Calmly explain you need quiet time
Step 3: Tell them they can watch tv
Step 4: Threaten to return them
Step 5: Research cloning
Step 6: Write after they go to bed…if they ever f*cking go to bed

Every interview with Harrison Ford feels like he was woken up at 4am, denied coffee, and told by a cheery publicist to “act pleasant”.

I don’t think I’m ever as excited for anything as I am for the next morning’s first cup of coffee. ☕️

I don’t ask friends and family if they’ve read my books. If they buy a copy that’s enough for me. 😉

I have managed to keep two small humans alive, fed, and happy for 4 and 5 years respectively, but I also just ate half a sticker off of an apple so not sure what that says about me.

Horror is having a moment. Bigots cannot and will not ruin it. Glad the HWA took such quick and decisive action to expel that human fecal smear from their organization.

Sometimes you’re feeling good about yourself and then your daughter tells you that you have “super big nostrils” and it re-centers you.

Still thinking about last night’s #TheLastofUs and how Bill and Frank have a better wine selection 20 years after a global plague than I do with a liquor store down the street and the Drizly app.

When it’s 7:45 and you’ve already been up for 2.5 hours because your daughter woke up at 5:15 but now she won’t get dressed for school because she claims she’s tired and for a moment you wonder what her return policy is.

Nick Offerman is perfect as Bill mainly because Bill could easily just be Ron Swanson with one small screw loose. #TheLastOfUs

The 49ers had a pretty remarkable season considering the devastating injury to their star starting quarterback.

Niners are one bad hit from bringing in Enrico Pallazzo at QB.

Nothing makes me roll my eyes harder than restaurants that have signs like this in the bathroom. If you look at this and nod you’re Al Bundy, congratulations.

Me: “Let’s go get ready for swim.”
Daughter: “Daddy I haven’t even had breakfast yet.”
Me: “You just had two pieces of toast with peanut butter.”
Daughter: “Daddy I haven’t even had a second breakfast yet.”
(apparently my daughter is now a hobbit)

The thing I like most about Shrinking is that it seems like they basically told Harrison Ford to just be himself only grumpier.

It is a requirement that if you are in a group of 3 or more parents you must all compare how much you all paid for your most recent airline tickets.

Over the years crime writers—myself included—have had a responsibility we abdicated in inaccurately depicting how law enforcement has so frequently harmed the communities they swore to protect. #TyreNichols

All I know is that if this scene is filmed for #thelastofus with Bella and Pedro I am going to be an absolute mess.

It seemed like a forgone conclusion based on the ratings and reviews, but I’m still so so happy. TLOU2 is one of my favorite stories in any medium and I can’t wait to see how it’s adapted by , et al. 🏌️♀️

I admire Stephen King. I grew up reading him. I have no doubt he has more than a small part in why I became a writer and editor. But he is very, very wrong here.

It is absolutely bonkers to me that people at the literal top of the writing and publishing food chain—Pamela Paul and Stephen King—are attacking those at the bottom.
