#WritersCoffeeClub 5 Have you ever dreamed about characters in your work?

All the time. When I was writing the Kate Clifford books Kate and her mother would wake me with arguments. I wonder whether it's more common when writing series--I've lived with Owen Archer and many of the regular charactes in the series for 30 years; they are family.

#Trump supporters try to doxx jurors and post violent threats after his conviction

On social media and web forums, users called for jurors, judges and prosecutors to be killed after the former president was found guilty on 34 felony counts.

@YusufToropov @GottaLaff Give them Trump's security detail. He doesn't need it.

"We have to acknowledge that our minds get overwhelmed and aren’t entirely our own. This is not an easy process, but one that one can train in. It’s not possible for painful feeling to become pleasant feeling. But painful feeling can arise and pass, this is possible. Can you give it the time and the space to do that?" Ajahn Sucitto 💚 🙏

Opt out, not in. Likely because they company is run by sociopaths.

You might want to shut this off in your profile. If you know anyone who works in management at DoorDash, consider tossing them into your nearest black hole.

The Seattle Public Library was hit with a ransomware attack. A library that has offered youth across the country access to its digital holdings with a special library card. Curious. Sickening. It's still open for physical books, using paper forms for borrowing. Bring your library cards or at least the number!
Support libraries--they are places of wonder and lifelines for the community.

@FlyVapen_Pikk They don't have nearly the funding that King County does. Sad for a large city. But they do have the Books Unbanned program, which is quite an outreach.

@GPJohnston Yesterday, yes! Floating all over and beginning to collect on either side of the Burke-Gilman. Not so thick up the hill...yet, but seeing it here as well. You, too?

Beauty, before the rains moved in.

I am going to be pondering this quote for a long while:
"She fears that present-day deforestation might result in the loss of that traditional knowledge.
"'The forests have always been our pharmacy, but they’re killing them as if they were people,” Pachaka said of the nearby settlers."
