Elizabeth Sampat @twoscooters Follow I don't wish we could abolish gender, I just wish it were less an identity and more of a hobby.

Your identity is not a job. The work will always be there. The deadlines will multiply. The inbox will refill. But you won't always be here. Stop letting your job define you before it consumes what's left of your actual life.
Look, co-star, you don't know me

The Tempest
That Scottish play
Much Ado
Othello

Midsummer Night's Dream
Titus Andronicus is a wild ride

The staggeringly fabulous cover for CE Murphy's upcoming BONE & BLOOD, a retelling of "Snow White, Rose Red" features two women standing back to back: one is garbed all in blood red, with dark red hair and a black mask; the other wears flowing white, with wheat-pale hair and a glittering mask.

If muds and chatrooms count, I've been on social media since... 1993? I have friends younger than my first MUSH character.
...if I had a penny...
