Every once in a while, you get to interview your heroes, and it is incredible. @harlancoben doled out brilliant writing advice in addition to talking about his wonderful thriller RUN AWAY. Don’t miss this episode of A WORD ON WORDS when it airs this weekend, starting tomorrow! #KeepReading

Today seems like a good day for looking at rainbow bookshelves. (📸= unknown)

Bodoni, as in the font. Spotted in Saluzzo during our trip to Italy.

Your muse wants to be controlled. Don't wait for her to come to you. Hunt her down and make her sit with you every day. Soon enough, she'll show up willingly, excited to share in your day.

Started the garden today. Gardenia with a teeny bit of ivy, birthday begonias from my MIL, gebera, foxglove, Russian sage, tick weed, and delphinium with the butterfly bush, Roma Roma Roma tomatoes. This is the year we do some actual landscaping, but at least there’s some color. Hummingbird feeders out, too. And then it rained. Mother Nature approves. 🌺🌼🌸🐝🐛🐌🦋 What are your favorites for the garden?

I'M SO EXCITED IT'S #caturday!!!!

Leigh Bardugo is one of my favorites and the Grisha trilogy is hands down one of the best fantasy trilogies. RUIN AND RISING has such an incredible conclusion. It's masterful how she has pulled the story together, pulled all the characters together, and kept true to the characters and setting. It's just a magnificent body of work. If you haven't read it yet, you should. If you have read @lbardugo, tell me what to read next because I'm going to be in a reading slump forever. Or at least until KING OF SCARS comes out. What are you reading?⠀

I absolutely love my home office but I suddenly see the appeal of writing sheds. This is gorgeous! (📸= Better Homes & Gardens)
