if you see me glued to CNN, don't interrupt; I'm willing a positive outcome into being and it's a very hard job.

Rejection sensitivity is a strange thing. It will have you obsessing over the one person who may not like you and forgetting the dozen people who love you. Ignore your imagined critics, know that the demons that harass you live only in your head.

French cover of Fifty Words for Rain. 🎊 I usually don’t share my foreign covers but in honor of having over fifteen of them now, I thought I would. Makes me even more excited to go back to Paris and to bring a slice of Paris to readers in The Wildest Sun.

can't help but feel that 3 years of rich white people pearl clutching about homeless ppl in NYC during the pandemic plus a cop mayor would make someone feel empowered to murder a Black man experiencing homelessness w/ mental illness in broad daylight without fear of repercussion
I’m currently doing my second pass copy edits, dealing with a chronic illness flare etc and it’s just a lot. It’s times like these I’m super grateful I’ve put in the work to know who I am and what I can manage. The house don’t fall when the bones are good.
My British/Canadian boyfriend for the past four years: Asha can you explain why America…
Me: No.
Him: But why do you allow…?
Me: I have absolutely no valid explanation for anything that happens in this country.

Is there some sort of law that every man in DC between the ages of 22-45 has to wear a blue t shirt, athletic shorts, sneakers, a baseball cap and sunglasses every time it hits April 1st? It’s been like this since I was like 10 and I’m wondering if I missed the mandate

The discourse about Leigh Bardugo’s deal is truly tiresome. Publishing is constantly throwing ridiculous amounts of money at ghost-written celebrity vanity projects. We are not going to side eye an actual writer who writes incredibly well getting a fraction of that sum
