We return to a life already in progress

Quinn writes. She writes books, articles, jokes, tweets, Small Stories, and Modest Blessings. When asked, she doles out Bad Advice to friends and strangers alike. Quinn also enjoys teaching people how to make a fine cocktail.  

Quinn often writes about herself in the third person. She’s working on that.

Here are Quinn’s books.

Remember books? They’re like Facebook, only with better spelling and less despair about your cousin’s political beliefs. So, nothing like Facebook.

Often wrong. Never in doubt.

Quinn Cummings knows very little. This has never stopped her from giving advice. In each episode of Quinn Cummings Gives Bad Advice, Quinn boldly tries to solve problems that really should be handled by far more qualified people.

 

 

There’s no good reason to make a bad cocktail.

I love a good bartender as much as the next person but anyone can make a perfect, personalized cocktail at home without spending years behind a bar or tons of money. For the past two years, I’ve been teaching people how to find their inner mixologist, both in person and on Zoom.

Small Stories.

A few years ago, Quinn decided to write a threaded Tweet about the worst decision she – or maybe anyone else – ever made in a professional situation. Over 16,000 retweets later, she realized people might like a small story served up several times a week. Cleverly, she called these small stories “Small Stories” and since then, she’s written over six hundred. 

Small Stories are funny, silly, sad (but in the good way), frequently uplifting, occasionally embarrassing (okay, more than occasionally embarrassing), and always excellent company.

For the past few years, truly generous people have allowed me to write jokes, toss barbs, create nicknames, generally afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted. I can put together a respectable cocktail, give out Bad Advice, mix it up with a bully and, at least three times a week, I offer up a Small Story – all of which seem to bring some folks pleasure.

Stay Tuned!

Here’s a promise: if you sign up to receive news from me, you will only hear from me when there’s a good reason. 

[Dear Fruitcake Company: I love fruitcake and even I’m weirded out hearing from you in July.] 

I won’t ever sell your email. I fear karma almost as much as most of you fear fruitcake.

Updates will be fun. Updates will arrive only when necessary. Updates will not be studded with lumps of neon-colored fruit.
