- Writers! I'm opening up a new Zoom workshop on Thursday evenings! If you're an intermediate to advanced writer eager to take your work to the next level, let's talk.
- Yes! #DorothyParker
- I fear this is true.
- Happy Mutter's Day
- Wait for it...
- I wonder which staffer had to break it to blotus that he can't fire the Pope.
- From A Farewell to Arms
- Your daily Dorothy Parker...
- I want all the Democratic governors to meet and come up with a doomsday plan for seceding from the US should the fascist destroy democracy. I'm 100% serious. This needs to be in the works.
- Here's a link to book club questions for my new novel, Joyride. These contain spoilers, so please don't click unless you've already read the book. ellenmeister.com/joyridebookc...
- This is the branch of the NYS police that dragged a peaceful woman out of Mike Lawler's Town Hall on Sunday. I'm just saying. Troop F, (845) 344-5300, serving the counties of Greene, Orange, Rockland, Sullivan, and Ulster
- In honor of his birthday... #OrsonWelles

- This shero was forcibly removed from GOP Congressman Mike Lawler's town hall last night, amid chants of “Let her stay!" No one has been able to explain why she was ousted. #resist

- I'm just so delighted folks are choosing Joyride as an escape!
- Holy moly. I'm blocked by over 6000 people via block lists! Didn't even know such things existed. Most of the block lists I'm on consist of folks who are "suspicious" because they follow a lot of people. As if that's bot behavior rather than just being a good social media citizen & following back. 😨
- Robert Benchley!
- Since posting this, my phone has been filled with ads for backhoes. Backhoes! Which only goes to show you how stupid AI algorithms can be. I already have all the backhoes I need.
- Your daily Dorothy Parker...
- My god, how I love this review! Thank you, Laura M! www.amazon.com/review/R30TS...
- One day, the cruelest and most dangerous man in America will be dead. In the meantime, take your vitamins, get your steps in, visit your doc, stay current on your vaccines. We'll make a date to dance on his grave.

- If you have an Audible credit, please take a minute and listen to the preview of Joyride! (Naturally, I'm biased about the book, which I think you'll love, but completely objective about the narrator, who knocks it out of the park. Brava, Sarah Naughton!) www.amazon.com/Audible-Stud...
- The more things change...
- How many times a day are you so disturbed by a news story you are tempted to send it to a MAGA relative, thinking this is surely the one that will change their mind, only to shake yourself out of it, remembering they are so deep in the muck of the cult that even a backhoe couldn't dig them out?
- Not easy to get your name in the paper! 🤣
- Often attributed to Dorothy Parker, but likely apocryphal anyway. Still funny!
- Imagine if Biden did this. Fox would make it a screaming headline every day for a year--complete with special graphics and hashtag--and republicans would be lined up to impeach him.
- If I was an FBI agent ordered to arrest a judge because the President didn't care for her rulings, I'd turn in my badge and resign. These people have a choice. As did the Nazi war criminals who testified at Nuremberg that they were just following orders.
- Your daily Dorothy Parker!
- Happy George Santos Sentencing Day to all who celebrate.
