Everything feels like it's been so hard since 2020 (and also 2016). I'd love to hear what life lessons you've taken away from the last few years. There have to be some, right?

It would absolutely wonderful if news outlets hosted their own Mastodon instances.

A few news orgs that have done that:
@TexasObserver
@sfstandard
@TucsonSentinel

And several others that have created official Mastodon accounts on general instances:
@ProPublica
@texastribune
@damemagazine
@COTimesRecorder
@rferl
@msfreepress
@Chron
@themarkup
@sfchronicle
@sfgate

Not sure if this one is official:
@msnbc

If anyone knows of any others, please let me know.

Friends! My wife is a novelist who writes achingly beautiful historical fiction. From time to time I will mention her books here.

Since today is #CyberMonday, some of you may be shopping for holiday gifts. If you are (or someone you are shopping for is) into historical fiction, why not head over to IndieBound and pick up one of her books?
