Whenever my wife uses voice to text —which is A LOT — I yell something nonsensical into her phone and if it transcribes, she has to send the text as-is. Best part is she can't help cursing Every. Single. Time, making the resulting text even more ridiculous.

I'm not saying I just wrote the best scene I've ever written (because that would be chapter 31 of FRANCES AND THE WEREWOLVES OF THE BLACK FOREST) but I will say I'm very happy with tonight's words

Took some dinosaur photos tonight and I don't want to over-promise here but this next book is going to be ADORABLE. #whatthedinosaursdid
