coz sometimes the romantic heroine is fictional but other times she's the most beautiful girl in the WORLD Team Fuse doing our best to transform ourselves into Ethiopian food, in these pics. If you are what you eat... 🤩 I took one of my best friends to @anomaly_sf (https://anomalysf.com/, Sutter Street in the city). She said she wanted to feel like a princess, and the mission was accomplished. 😁😋 Does "lux" apply to food? You could pay them a visit then tell me. Might need it for a novel someday. #foodstagram #sffoodie What awesome night, meeting such brilliant people at the Fuse Literary dinner! I should have, but failed to grab a photo of the wine—incidentally named Fuse, too. Did I hear, "book trailer?" 📼📚 Turns out I have more lovely book people in my life than I can possible get a lunch reservation for, but I'm delighted these 11 could make it to an early birthday shindig for me this year.

My first big #authortok #writing Tiktok is about sensitivity readers. I wrote 2 characters for an #immersivetheater project, SPIRIT PARLOUR, at Cafe Nordo (Seattle, WA). I hired SRs to help me with historical Filipino culture, as well as the ancestral Seminole Indigenous peoples of Florida. More links, credits (and perhaps excessive detail!) on my blog at http://https://shiwritesprose.com/blog/ — follow me for more to come in writing news, especially books! 🤫 #sensitivityreader #diversity #writersoftiktok
