    Bree's world, my dreams...let's go! I've imagined a television adaptation of LEGENDBORN since before it was published, and I am thrilled to be working with @blackbearpics and @FeliciaDHen1 as we take the steps to make the dream a reality. This is just the beginning. ๐Ÿ’™โš”๏ธโค๏ธ

    When I read the phrase "faithful retelling of King Arthur's legend" I can actually *feel* myself turning into a werewolf.

    I wish I'd saved the tweet I saw that framed all of this in terms of labor. But, essentially, my takeaway was this: We have to remember, all the ruling class wants is an endless supply of essential workers that are not them.

    I did not expect this news. Hearing it sent me into another universe. My lovely team had to keep reminding me that this was in fact my earned reality. "#1 NYT Bestselling Series" did not feel real. It still does not. Thank you readers for supporting me, this series, and Bree. ๐Ÿ’œ
    Congratulations, @tracydeonn!!!! The Legendborn Cycle is a #1 @nytimes bestselling series!!! ๐Ÿ’œโš”๏ธ

    I just keep thinking about how much shock can be attributed to a) not considering the "joke" to be violent on any level and b) not considering the victim worthy of defense of any kind.

    Is "bizarre" the new "racially motivated"? Lol. Just say "racist" it has fewer characters.
    Steven Yeun, the lead actor of A24โ€™s Sundance darling #Minari didnโ€™t make it into the best actor lineup. The HFPA made the bizarre decision to have #Minari contend in best foreign language film, even though it was a U.S. production. bit.ly/3cEemTI

    โ€œDonโ€™t make your life about the loss. Make it about the love.โ€ I wrote a book about a fierce, grieving girl who is more powerful than she realizes, and now itโ€™s here. I did it, Mom. I made it about the love. tracydeonn.com/legendborn/ #Legendborn
