Why does everyone in Tacoma park like it's their first day on earth

Working at Amazon is kind of like sisyphus rolling the rock, except it's me (a 5 foot tall dyke) dragging a pallet jack with 900 pounds of pink toddler play kitchens on it

LOOK AT MY BOYYYYYYYY 🥹

I think if I listened to that song gnarly by katseye in the car, I would get arrested. We're talking felony ticket. Impounded car. The works.

Bloom Town is so good, I've been listening to country music. Do you know how deep in a book's clutches before I start willingly listening to fuckin' Keith Anderson and Gretchen Wilson? Do you know how deep in my roots that is??? Do you have any idea how hard I've tried to bury it??? #booksky

The actual face my girlfriend made at me when I woke her up trying to pull MY SIDE of the blanket back on to MY SIDE of the bed (It was one of the funniest and cutest things i've ever seen in my life, and I will be doing it on purpose from now on)

There is much venturing and ADventuring in THE HOWLING DARK! 🐺🌗 #FantasyBookFriday

#FantasyBookFriday | venture Fest and Anneke having a wee bit of a fire-related issue in the middle of their magical experimentation ( saranadosfiction.com/2021/07/10/s... )

A little snippet from Name Her Holy for #FantasyBookFriday Just some casual campfire conversation

#FantasyBookFriday “Your first trial, honoring Litha, the summer Solstice, will perhaps be the most deadly of all 8 trials awaiting you. Your goal is this: to hunt. Prove that you have earned the right to call yourself a hunter. You may venture out of the shadow of the trees only when dawn rises."

Here's mine! This is from the second chapter of FORGED BY FATE, the sequel to my debut, TEMPERED IN ASH ✨️⚔️ #authorsky #booksky #FantasyBookFriday

We're changing things up a little bit on Fridays from now on, so... Welcome to Fantasy Book Friday ✨️⚔️ To participate, quote post a snippet from your book or WIP featuring the word "VENTURE" 🌍 and make sure to use the #FantasyBookFriday hashtag when you post! #authorsky #booksky

"Girlhood is a spectrum" And it's an image of me in a sweater and glasses, reading Katabasis by RF Kuang on one end and an image of me in a bedazzled sports bra and cowboy boots, reading Bloom Town: Genesis on the other. #booksky #booklover #nowreading

I am wearing a shirt that says "Minthussy Muncher" at work tonight, and if I get written up for it, it will be the single most iconic thing I've ever done

Never underestimate the joy that comes with a big bowl of chorizo and eggs

If 13 year old me could see what I looked like at 29, she would be OVERJOYED. I would explain all of our tattoos. I would tell her not to get that conch piercing at 22. I would tell her to try kissing a girl, just once, to see what she thinks. I would show her the book we published.

It's been a few days since I finished The Radient King duology, and I'm still thinking about it. Those books really snuck up on me, I'm not gonna lie. Such a beautiful, intense representation of the many facets of being queer, the savagery of war, the messiness of politics... I ate that shit up 👀

Have been reading nonstop for the last like... two months, and it feels INCREDIBLE. I missed being mentally stable enough to devour books like a middle schooler 😂

This might be asking too much, but if I could sell 29 copies of Tempered in Ash before the end of my 29th birthday (which is tomorrow) that would be probably one of the best birthdays I've ever had 🥹 It's a queer epic fantasy with sapphic romance and D&D style shenanigans, and it's my pride and joy

NEW ART ALERT ⚠️🎨 If Mariana and Olynna are good for one thing... it's fighting. Who's ready for some toxic yuri this time around? 😌 Characters are from my upcoming novel, Forged by Fate 🗡✨️ Art by me ✨️ #artsky #oc #booksky

Every time I think about The Locked Tomb (which is multiple times a day) I get so viscerally emotional that I make myself nauseous. How did Tamsyn Muir do that????

who wants to be the 100th backer *and* push the Plot Twist Cafe Kickstarter over $12k?? www.kickstarter.com/projects/bai...

The origin myth for TiA starts with the cosmos birthing Dranheia, then Dranheia begging for an equal, which results in the cosmos birthing Dadasha. Together, they are the Mothers, and they crafted all of the lesser gods in their image to care for certain aspects of the world ✨️ #FantasyFriday

idk how to explain this to people who aren't queer, but I enjoy letting my queerness inform all aspects of my life. And I don't mean this in a "make it my whole personality" way, I mean this as a "being a part of the queer community has fundamentally changed who I am as a person" kind of way

It's almost Virgo season, and I will ascend to my final form (a manic, caffeinated, professional complainer with a god complex)

I think if I ever commissioned NSFW art for any of The Girls, I would screech so loud my mother would hear me all the way in Florida, and then promptly bury it in my computer somewhere after looking at it one (1) time. This is a very normal reaction for a lesbian to have, I assure you.

Epic fantasy lovers: Is 7 POVs too many? I'm working on book 3 planning and trying to make some narrative decisions 👀 #booksky #authorsky

The closest thing to a "god" in THE HOWLING DARK is the Alpha: a spirit of the moon in the shape of a wolf who sacrificed herself to create werewolves by having humans stranded in the nuclear winter drink her silver blood, thereby giving them the resilience to survive. 🐺🌓 #FantasyFriday

Oo this is a good one #FantasyFriday Religion plays a central role in Belarythm’s Branches. The society is largely monotheistic, worshiping a god named Vahndestrus. A god who, according to scripture, turned his back on the world, having witnessed the worst of man’s wickedness and betrayal.

#FantasyFriday! Religion is very important in my series. A lot of the plots involve religious doctrines and conflicts between religions. Only one god is actually real but there are avatars of some others who don't believe in their own divinity. www.inkitt.com/graptopetalum

#FantasyFriday religion and Gods are quite significant and essentially set off the series of events that lead up to the conflict in the story. If they never imparted their powers/blessings to the world then it would be a better place.

#FantasyFriday #QueerWriters #WritingCommunity There's a group of people in Ray Tracer who worship chaos, believing their god gives them superhuman abilities. How much is true though, nobody really knows, as they don't leave survivors. 💀

#FantasyFriday This is a fun one since I’ve been doing #MythAugust as well! In Sweet & Wild, religion is very small and folksy. People leave offerings to spirits, particularly in forests, in order to take from them. It isn’t very centralized! In The Need for Dandelions, that’s not the case! (1/3)
