Can this note from my copy editor count as an “author blurb”?

This is what I’m saying. And for the record, AI could never come up with “sound like a toilet bowl.”
Prediction 🪄 Creative writing will become one of the most in-demand—and highest-paid—careers, once everybody starts using AI and realizes they sound like a toilet bowl. 🚽 😊

This is big! I’m up for a Goodreads Award and it may come down to me VS Fonzie — ayyyy 👍👍. If you’re torn, same here. But I voted for Tough Titties and I hope you will too! goodreads.com/choiceawards/b… #goodreads #readerschoiceawards

Popular, New and Trending on @Spotify and Best of 2023 on @audible_com! I’ll take it all but if you read the book, you know “Most Popular” really hits for me. Loved every minute of recording this book - thank you @HachetteBooks and @HachetteAudio

Tough Titties is a @usatoday bestseller! Thank you, readers. (People who read, not the glasses I still refuse to wear though those aren’t really readers, but whatever you wear to see distance.) Get your copy of this hot bestseller at ToughTittiesbook.com — still with bonuses!

I just switched back to my old email service provider, @ConvertKit, after 3 years, and it feels like getting my braces off.

This is the podcast episode of my dreams!
It’s open books all the way w/ these 2 TMI queens & their no-holds-barred, hilarious ways. They’re the perfect duo to break my 6-month hiatus. What a hoot to be back with 3-time NYT best-selling memoirist @TheBloggess (Broken, Furiously Happy, & Let’s Pretend This Never Happened) and her blogtastic comedic twin, @lbelgray, joining us while on book tour for her memoir, the national bestseller, Tough T*tties: On Living Your Best Life When You’re the F-ing Worst.💜 Y’all, this one’s a mood booster! And a total love match. If you’re in the mood to laugh and shake off the funk from your Doomscrolling, this is the show for you.💜 This may be Laura’s first book, but she’s one of the most successful career writers I know, starting in TV writing for NBC, HBO, USA, Nick at Night, Nickelodeon, TV Land, VH1, and others. Let’s just say the girl gets around. Her blog and newsletters at Talking Shrimp are wildly popular (addictive!), as are her programs, like Inbox Hero and The Copy Cure, Laura’s creation with @marieforleo.💜 Join us as we dig into wisdom on crafting headlines, run-on sentences that hypnotize, avoiding husbands as beta readers, and how having children is like living with an undercover agent tapping all your phones. We also dish on hiding during Zoom calls, editing drunk, getting mailed boxes of d*ldos in the mail (like you do), bjobs Laura gave in the early 90s, ta-tas that grow back after reduction surgery, and the ghost living under Jenny’s house.💜 I’m so happy you’re here. Welcome. Listen on apple podcasts or go to BeautifulWritersPodcast(.com) for all the links. 💜 bit.ly/3YQtOC7 #BeautifulWritersPodcast #JennyLawson #LauraBelgray

Loved doing this podcast! We invented a game called “pizza or doctor,” which…you’ll see when you listen.
Tune in to this week's new #LadyToLady! @lbelgray joins to talk about what inspired her book Tough Titties, learning responsibilities as you get older and having big boobs. Listen on @ApplePodcasts! @exactlyright #LadytoLady buff.ly/3ZHTPTe

Can’t wait to do this one!
Can you guess who’s coming up on the #beautifulwriterspodcast? ❤️🧡 Taping tomorrow. Coming soon: TMI Queens: The art of the overshare—with @TheBloggess & @lbelgray. I can’t wait. Let me know if you have any burning questions while I finish up my prep.🔥☄️🐔👽👙🤣 PS. Still gonna post the self-publishing episode with my clients @HalElrod & @DrJCarrington (who’ve sold millions of books on their own!). Encountered a tech glitch & I took a while to re-record. Will be worth the wait! ❤️ More soon. xo #toughtitties #laurabelgray #jennylawson #bestsellingauthors #literarylovematch #bookmama #beautifulwritersbook #grateful

I think this place might just be NYC during the pandemic, when everyone said it was dead and not coming back - but now you can’t get a table anywhere good even on a Monday.

At the risk of being unoriginal, I’m so moved by s2 of The Bear!

Buncha prudes. This is not the Times Square I grew up playing in! To quote my husband, “You used to be able to say ‘C*M ON MY FACE” on a billboard there.” What has happened to this world? Fight back by getting the book too hot for Times Square at ToughTittiesbook.com

PSA for anyone who almost never gets their nails done and is as clueless as me: A gel manicure will leave your nails so damaged and soft, you can't even scratch an itchy spot without bending them. It does last a good 2 weeks, though.

My book, Tough Titties, is a national bestseller! Thank you to @hachettebooks and everyone who got a copy and spread the word…and to everyone who’s about to buy it now that you know it’s hot and popular! I’m shallow, too. 🙌

I loved doing this podcast! And what a shoutout from my friend @KateAurthur, one of my favorite voices in pop culture
Such a pleasure to hear my friend @lbelgray on @ryanbailey25's podcast -- discussing RHONY, Vanderpump Rules -- and her new book "Tough Titties." The book is so good and so funny, and everyone should buy it! A delightful read.
