  1. My 58 year old liver and kidneys do not let me have more than a pinch of #alcohol without giving me a #headache.
    Only thimble-sized #Amari remain.

    Is #InSob a Thing? InTeaTot?

    Ooooooo, I both hate the etymology and love the rhythm inTeaTot. I might use it #inTeaTot

  2. Il fratello di mia moglie mi dice: "sono stato qua (dito sulla mappa) e ho bevuto un amaro buonissimo, però mi sono scordato di prenderne una bottiglia."
    E chi è che alle 22 di lunedì ha telefonato al ristorante per chiedere come si chiama l'amaro e poi rintracciare i produttori e farsi spedire a casa 3 bottiglie?...

  3. My family has been fans of BB Alston's Amari series since we listened to the audiobook of the first book a few years ago. We're reading through the 3rd in the series right now.

    I can't say enough good things about this series!

    I adore Alston's writing style but in particular his dialogue. It's so authentic. You can't write a book about a southern Black girl but write her dialogue like she's a white kid from the Midwest.

    We honestly missed a really,
    really fun gem of foreshadowing in the 3rd book because it's wordplay that only really works with particular accents. But with a little knowledge of how AAVE speakers sometimes emphasize different syllables than "standard" (white) American English speakers the pieces fall into place for a fantastic setup.

    The books are filled with this kind of authenticity. Alston occasionally eschews "correct" (white) grammar in such a way that the first person perspective of the books really works. I would absolutely believe that the series was a memoir written by a Black girl from Atlanta.

    Anyhow, go read these books!

  4. Been on a Sun Haven kick and wanted to draw this version of farmer Gaius. He's just a normal dog Amari, totally not actually a human. Just ignore that collar with his name engraved on it that he never removes. Don't mind him suddenly leaving the city for mysterious reasons. And definitely don't mind how disappears for like a day each month and the stray brown dog you might see around his farm. Just totally normal things with no implied TF going on. :)
