Remake the World: Tell a Story Worth Believing In

Assumptions, Fictions, Life

I was alive in the 90s when Clinton pushed NAFTA (it had been passed years before but Dems refused to ratify it!). It destroyed local economies, undercut worker power and wages locally, exploited workers in other countries, and made rich people richer: That’s a reality the far left AND the far right can agree on.

The Greatest Act of Resistance? Reclaiming Your Time

Life

This is a great long thread about strategies for coping with uncertainty. It touches on similiar strategies I’ve talked about here and elsewhere about how to navigate a world where every step you take feels like trying to navigate a sea of quicksand. I learned a lot the first time round when we had a

Adrift on the Sea of History: Hope for Realists

Life

I’ve found comfort the last 10 years in looking back at historical comparisons of the last few hundred years in our history. The likelihood that I’ll survive a prolonged disruption of supply chains and civil unrest is of course quite low (I’m dead in 48 hours without meds) but knowing humans just… Become seething, mad

Why Great Art Connects Us Across Time and Space (Even with Monsters)

The Writing Life

It’s a Brave New World at the day job today. Yesterday’s events 100% supported my decision to base story squad dynamics on my former team. You write your catharsis. (I do, anyway). I’ve always been better at processing emotion through storytelling than, say, therapy. It IS my therapy. While it’s true that you can’t make

On Emotional Wounds and Storytelling

The Writing Life

Spent time last night on character work for my squad timeline in new #wip. “Using my difficulties” from work – smashing together personalities, reimagining petty squabbles. I know at least one author who turned tumultuous day job-inspired drama and team dynamics into a bestseller. So why not? I think this round gets me to the

Drafting a Book is Like Shopping at IKEA

The Writing Life

Working on getting back into new book this week. Last week’s chaotic day job ate headspace. As I discovered last few months with last book, getting deep into Weird Novel headspace is fabulous way to spend These Times. I want to get grounded into this one more. Trying to think what made last click. A

When the World’s on Fire, Dig a Well

Updates

This was an exceptionally stressful week at work, and I am here to remind everyone (and myself!), once again, to give everyone a little grace in our everyday lives this year of all years. Stress and uncertainty are endemic across personal and professional lives. People’s houses are literally on fire. My job has an office
