They’ve had a rough couple months, but at least they have each other. Side note: part of the orange one is under the white one. The size difference is an optical illusion. 😆 https://ift.tt/2TEFffe
This is what happens when I don’t spend enough time being cat furniture. https://ift.tt/2SdRM8q
This ridiculous little monster opposes the concept of not being allowed in a room. https://ift.tt/367PD3j
A friend showed me this... 😍
My writing group is meeting at Panera (as we habitually do) and almost every occupied table is a person with a laptop. One guy has a MONITOR set up, and I can’t decide if I need a photo...
I wouldn’t let him lay on my foot, so he’s sitting so close that his fur is on it instead. 🙄 https://ift.tt/2nHiLhv
Not windy at all. https://ift.tt/2ZCwreG
Have fun! Be safe! https://ift.tt/2FO44iH
Have fun! Be safe!
There is enough room for all of us. ❤️
I didn’t know about all of these. Love that old bard...
An oldie, but a goodie.

“No woman writer can write 'too much'...No woman has ever written enough.” - Bell Hooks
Happy International Women’s Day!
"Even if you find yourself standing alone, speak up. Even if people get mad at you, speak up. It's not our job to stay silent so that others can stay comfortable. Use your voice to shape the world or others will shape it for us." - Olivia Munn
"A book is made from a tree. It is an assemblage of flat, flexible parts (still called "leaves") imprinted with dark pigmented squiggles. One glance at it and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, the author is speaking, clearly and silently, inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people, citizens of distant epochs, who never knew one another. Books break the shackles of time--proof that humans can work magic."
― Carl Sagan
Watched this video and wanted to share.
I read a tweet a while back, asking how you would respond if the critical things you say about yourself were being said about your best friend. I don’t know about you, but I would be infuriated and largely ignore them. So why do I struggle to do it for myself?
Keep trying. Keep fighting. You matter.

Jenny Lawson on Twitter “Rules for Writers: 1. THERE ARE NO RULES. THAT’S WHAT MAKES IT SO WONDERFUL AND TERRIFYING.”
"Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window."
--William Faulkner
"You never have to change anything you got up in the middle of the night to write."
--Saul Bellow
"If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it."
--Toni Morrison
"We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospect."
--Anaïs Nin
“Literature is strewn with the wreckage of men who have minded beyond reason the opinions of others.”
—Virginia Woolf
“Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of, but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.”
—Robert A. Heinlein
“Writers are always selling somebody out.”
—Joan Didion
