Sorry I haven’t posted in a couple of days, lovelies, but it was a busy, busy, very long weekend. There are movie things brewing and book things brewing and I can’t wait to tell you all about them as soon as I’m able to… In the meantime, this is me wishing you goodnight and sending you love, love, love

It’s Saturday morning here and I’m just opening my eyes. Scout Finch is lying on my chest and @lunalovefold is snuggled up beside me. And I am looking at fan art. Such a lovely way to start the day.

#TBT part one: To that time in Gothenburg, Sweden, when I came back from a book festival gala after a very long (but lovely) day at the end of a very long (but lovely) European tour to find @theojames.doll lying in my bed. Oh what fun we had! I miss you, Theo, and I wish I could cuddle you right now. And I miss my bff @lilrongal (aka voice of Theo), fellow traveler, sister of my heart, partner in crime.

Good morning, lovelies! No #MovieMonday news for you today because there are script edits to be done and I am hard at work (it’s amazing how the script will continue changing right up until and even through shooting).

Dear lovelies: Yesterday morning I walked to the studio of my friend @kristaramfitness for a workout. A short walk down a nice street, and on my way there three different men harassed me. There are compliments from strangers and then there are the sort of sexual remarks that make you feel cornered and frightened. These were that kind. The first time I remember hearing remarks like that from a man I was 12, and he was my teacher. I never told anyone because I felt confused and guilty and worried that somehow it was my fault, that I was responsible for the things he said. Years later I dated someone briefly and broke up with him when I discovered he was violent. He turned stalker, forcing me to upend my life, leave the state, seek shelter at my mom’s on the opposite coast, and involve the police. These incidents are very much on my mind right now, not just because of the horrific things we’re learning about one of the most powerful men in Hollywood, but because of similar stories I hear from you. Do not let anyone make you feel you’re to blame for lewd, disrespectful, or violent behavior. Do not let anyone make you feel less than. Do not let anyone make you feel small. Do not let anyone make you question yourself. Do not let anyone silence you. If you are being harassed or harmed, speak up and out. Use your beautiful, strong voice. Together we can silence sexism, abuse, violence, and hate. Love, love, love, me
