I'm not going to name names, but how do you prove to an organization that an email belongs to you when you are emailing back and forth with them from that email. #jackassery
Tell me, what does anxiety feel like to you?
Why is no one responding to me about doing an audiobook? How many young, snarky voices do you think are out there??
"Why aren't you sleeping" is a weird question.
After going through the horrible "asking authors for blurbs" process, I can tell you my affections have changed for some authors who couldn't even be bothered to say "no."
Someone did my makeup today and I'm looking for excuses to go out so people can remember me this way. Or I could learn to do my makeup...? Nahhh
I feel like how long it takes to get the dental floss off my hand in the morning sets the tone for the whole day, and that is backed up by data.
Has anyone else heard that no one is publishing in October/November because of the election? I mean, not really worried (November publication date)...whatev.
Superpower I most want right now: being able to read the lines of writing ideas I wrote one on top of another in the dark when I woke up feeling my genius last night. What about you?
If I was smarter about this, I probably wouldn't create posts like this. bristolvaudrin.com/bristols-blog/…
Very sad news for indie publishing.
Very sad news for indie publishing.
Man, I've had about 8 minutes of time to read or write in the last 3 weeks. Still trying to figure out the write-publish-write-publish process (stuck at write-publish...)--any tips from established writers? How do you keep producing while helping your last work succeed?
Tried to sign up for one of the online courses from #ReedsyHQ, but my mouse died before I could click through the approximately twenty seven multi-level tests to affirm I am not a robot.
My autocorrect just changed "that" to "thar." Now, how many times is THAT going to be right?
Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one not writing poetry, fantasy, romance, or sci fi (they are great, I just think I got in with that crowd because that's mostly the conversations I see). What do you write?
I just found out I am a "pantser." What are you?
Finally, the answer to the question my husband has been asking. bristolvaudrin.com/bristols-blog/…
New post is up! bristolvaudrin.com/bristols-blog/…
Hating the "zero-sumness" of my time to read or write. I need a bigger pie. #writerscommunity #readerscommunity

@BristolVaudrin I am hurting even this morning in the most random places
Tweet a great book that might also have the most slappinest title ever...
I’m so thrilled to have this poem in @TheAtlantic! Thank you to the editors for this honor. This poem is close to my heart—my father passed away one day after my manuscript of THE BOOK EATERS was finished. The gap between art and life continues to haunt me.
Incredibly honored to have my story “Angelo” chosen by the brilliant Laila Lalami for this special issue of @pshares alongside stories by Tommy Orange, Jane Smiley, and many other writers I admire!
@BristolVaudrin Oh my god whaaaat! That’s wild. I’d be plotting for sure
@lucas_kinkaid In Minnesota we do passive aggressive. Just nod and change the subject. Worse comes to worst ghost him for awhile Works pretty well.
...just signed a contract on a story I submitted 35 times between March 2023 and March 2024 and thought no one would ever take... 🥹
@brecht_dp Whether it's a news article, a magazine feature, or a critical essay, I start with an outline of what I want to say and then flesh out each section. Personal essay follows the same principles. Also, make your ending close your opening.
@brecht_dp I start with by way of a preface by Charles D’ambrosio. It’s a good starting point for thinking through what an essay can/should do, and it demonstrates it as well. Of course, the essay has many forms, but I think you always need an engine of a central question.
@TortoiseBooks @BristolVaudrin @xtebordo Congrats, Bristol! Killer cover
@BristolVaudrin Really looking forward to this!
@BristolVaudrin Awesome! Enjoy all the excitement. I'm looking forward to it.
@BristolVaudrin You parade all you want, girl!
THIS. BE THERE.
On May 23 at the fine @BookCellar I will join Cyn Vargas for a double book launch! Also, @HypertextMag , @ChrisMaulRice , and @ignatius2u. With @TortoiseBooks. A celebration of books and writers! Save the date!
And bigger thanks to @AvnerLandes for the rec, and @saralippmann for another lovely blurb!
@BristolVaudrin Don't contain your excitement! Let it all out! (I mean, as long as you don't get arrested or anything.)
It's official...we have a cover for AFTERWARD by @BristolVaudrin! A magnificent dark comedy coming this fall to a bookstore or an internet near you...and thanks for the cover blurb, @xtebordo!
@BristolVaudrin Okay, wait a sec. How can you make this comment and not post a pic so we can see it?
