  • My new book made it to the final round of the Goodreads Choice Awards and I always feel awkward asking y'all to vote for such things--unless I can make it fun. So in honor of FUN my partner and I made a BAD READS CHOICE AWARDS video in which we unpack the most ridiculous lines I have written over the years. Turns out--there are a lot of them, and we had a blast exploring what compelled me to write things like,"Everyone wants straight As. Give me some gay As to work for."
    I hope you enjoy, and if you'd like to vote--THANK YOU SO MUCH--link below. Voting ends tomorrow, Dec 5th. If you voted in the first round, or if you didn't, you are allowed to vote in the final round as well. ❤

    Watching Megan just absolutely suffering through this was amazing. I've always thought that some of the silliness in the word play of your love poems was a positive-- we're all effusive and nonsensical in love.

    The first one is literally one of my favorites, Emergency Contact is one of the poems that probably saved my life. Though we’ve only met through my ears listening to your words, your words have helped me in times I wished I wouldn’t be here today, so me now thanks you for giving me then a reason to be here today.
    Wait why are all the lines my favorite lines 😂❤

    I LOVE THIS CONTENT. also went into a store called Tender Loving Empire today in Portland, Oregon, and Hey Galaxy + Take Me With You were in there. I almost started crying because I was not expecting to find you there!

    Such a good video! Also, the "loose as a cannon" is one of my favorites from the album! I always took it as loving the unpredictability of a person, their nature to not listen to others and trust in themselves, a "loose cannon", if you will. 😁

    This was a joy... from the perspective of seeing you laugh and smile while engaging with your lovely partner. Sometimes yes, one can be too contrived, so keeping it simple and to the point is best. Your stuff never fails to wow me, move me, reach right into the core of me. Bless you, Andrea.

    OMG, ran across this again a year plus later and I'm already laughing that Meg is going to edit. Sheesh, Meg is good, and has no problem saying cut this here when we love the rest. But ouch, been there done that and You are partners. This is killing me laughing. Loose as a cannon may be aged out on Meg. Loose cannon is an old term and Meg may just not be well versed enough in history to understand that. Ok the baby vagina rad line, I remember the poem and the person. It's just awkward, and love you Andrea, but you're awkward at times. And it fits. Please do not stop being awkward. Megan, hugs, loves, and thank you for all the best poems I've ever written coming out of your workshops. And ask your Dad about the term loose cannon.

    i feel like this is a roast to people's deepest emotions, these line may sound crude or funny but they also mean everything to someone else, just a thought?
