A starchy demon utterly undone by love. An underpowered oracle fighting for her community (and cheese). Sexy Satan. Villains actually getting their comeuppance. WOO(R)SD is out today, and I hope you love it as much as I do!

Damn, this story is making me so emotional! Did you SEE all the different categories she won over the years? This woman is an all-around ribbon-earning beast, and fuuuuuuuuck her father!

"'My father was an alcoholic and I heard all the time, "Can’t you do anything right? What’s the matter with you? Can’t you do anything right?", so with the ribbons, I was like, "Oh, I can do something right".' Johnson said."

The most absolutely massive flex from the state fair exhibit. This quilt is made of 40 years of prize ribbons from various categories at the New Mexico State Fair won by Carol St. Clair Johnson. She also won a prize for this quilt.

Sweden's far-right party is now sponsoring the local hockey club...to which we recently bought season tickets. 😭
It feels super-gross, especially since we live in a city with an enormous immigrant population.

If your agent is doing this, they are not in any way operating with your best interests at heart and you need a different agent.
Apparently some agents are trying to claim percentages on the Anthropic settlement, and I do not REMOTELY think they should do this, what the fuck, stop that shit!

I know I already posted about this...but to reiterate: Anthropic copyright settlement authors, PLEASE contact me (Writer Beware) if your publisher is making a claim on a book whose rights have reverted, or claiming anything other than a 50/50 split on an in-contract book. [email protected]
FINALLY: If anyone gets a response from a publisher that is something along the lines of "yeah, we just asserted ownership for all titles that had our name listed as publisher regardless of reversion status" PLEASE send that information to me or @victoriastrauss.com.

My run of good luck continues unabated! Today's amazing email comes from a "VP, Executive Editor" at Hachette, who is *also* a fan of my latest book release.

I've injured my shoulder the most badass way possible: diamond painting. 😂
(I'd like to tell you that I was DPing [haha] while hanging from a helicopter skid or rollerblading away from determined assassins on a deadly obstacle course, but alas. I was just sitting at my damn dining room table.)

Excellent news: My editor loved EAT, FAE, LOVE! Which is awesome, since I love it too!
I've done my main edits, and now I need to have Word robotically read the whole story aloud while I cringe, hide my face during the sex scenes, and try to notice missing words and inadvertent repetitions. 😅
