Writerly reminders 🖤✨ ✨ You will write someone's favorite book ✨ Take breaks + treat yourself ✨ Write that series ✨ Your first books aren't failures for not hitting goals on release, they're paving the way for success ✨ Build your backlist ✨ Enjoy the process

Libraries purchase books. When you see a book at the library, it isn’t “free” the library bought it. which in turn means that the community bought it. In other words, library books are not lost sales for authors and publishers; they’re positive sales. Active sales. Those are bought.

🏳️‍⚧️happy transgender awareness week!🏳️‍⚧️ hire trans people! buy from trans artists! support the trans community! 🙏

Call campaigns work! But we need as many people joining as possible Join today and yell at paypros to stop discriminating against adult content and sex workers! stop-paypros.neocities.org

i want to like financial audit with caleb hammer (god it's incredibly entertaining seeing how many assholes who make way too much money, like 6-7 figures even, put themselves unmanageably deep in the red) but the recurring hate on nonbinary people and anti sex worker bias is too exhausting to bother

this absolute model citizen. this is what we need. big followings become immaterial when it comes to the gov't but your safe position as a consimer means everything. thank you for fighting for us ❤️

As it was before and as it is now, trans women are some of the first standing up for us and fighting. They always have been! So if you say you love trans women (as I see lots of you saying) you need to take action in preventing them from being censored and de-banked. Make the calls.

Owning a bank would be a massive chunk of the security needed to give adult content a safe platform. Also massively hard to do because you're required to have 5 million in cash or investments. But I'm watching. Very informative article on what it takes to build a paypro voidfox.com/blog/payment...

I am still brewing ideas while not finishing my WIPs: In a world where God is dead, a serial killer deals with the devil to turn into a monster. When he charms a rich family, their nanny Danielle will do anything to save the children she cares for... ...like freeing the angel chained in the cellar.

My watercolor commissions are once again open! I can have them shipped out in time for the holiday season (they make great Christmas gifts), or I can have them ready for pickup at Grand Rapids Comic Con in two weeks. Prices and details here: alexisroyce.ink/commissions

Absolutely no one is gonna want to talk about politics at Thanksgiving dinner this year. No one.

🏳️‍⚧️ We’re back with paid opportunities for Trans+ creatives! Writer? Illustrator? Audio producer? This is for you. With @transhistoryweek.com we’re investing in 20 Trans+ creatives to make content for Trans+ History Week 2026. Deadline 2nd Dec 2025, 11:59PM GMT 🗓️ 🧵 Details 👇

It’s Transgender Awareness Week. I’m trans. Happily so! (Apart from *gestures at the world*.) I also make trans art - books about a trans magical girl and all her gay teammates. You might like ‘em, and it directly supports me because this is my whole job. 😅 magicariot.com

if my pain levels continue to decrease, and my productivity stays high, I may start rolling out a minimal commission availability list so I can afford new binders...being down to one that works is real rough.

www.badinternetbills.com#stop-csam In addition to calling your reps, this website has both a lot of information explaining why these bills are bad/ why section 230 must be protected, as well as petitions to sign for each individual issue! Signing petitions helps! Make your calls, sign petitions!

ARTISTS: there’s a scam going around where someone will commission you, you send the sketch and they will claim it’s AI and ask to be refunded. • do not refund the person • POST their @ - do not keep them censored • ONLY send watermarked low res WIPs. it doesn’t matter if it’s a mutual or not.

Concerning Matters of Blood update day! Everyone saw this coming. concerningblood.the-comic.org #webcomics

I'm glad to see more normies and normie adjacent figures fucking finally talking about the subject, specially by bringing actual sex workers to talk about it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjWU...

Food $200 Data $150 Rent $800 Orc/elf porn $3,600 Utility $150 someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my family is dying

Given the state of the world right now, if you managed to write even twenty words this week about people being tender, or in love, or having rampant sex, or leading each other to a fade-to-black bedroom, I am proud of you.

Finished it! Time for a little break and then get sketching for another comm 😌

When you recount this election day:

My Arthurian x Indonesian mythology WIP has: 🤟🏼🗡️ disabled chosen one whose language is that of hands ⚔️ chaotic squad of vigilante knights 👹 a multiverse under the feet of sexy monsters 😤🗡️🫦 enemies to lo–enemies who admire each other's talents. Foemates #questpit #YA #W

Censorship is now coming for your dnd and your warhammer and your farming sim, they don't care if it's not adult content. They wanted everything

genuinely beautiful that new york elected a muslim lefty mayor the same day that dick cheney died

Unfortunately, so much of what indie creators sell/offer are non-essentials that are first on the chopping block when people's budgets get tighter. My shop sales are down for a few reasons, but consumer anxiety about the economy is part of it.

I’m quitting my job, and not for fun reasons. I spend my lunch crying in my car. I have nightmares and panic attacks. And when I get home, I just stress eat. I don’t have another job waiting but I know I can’t stay here any longer without risking my mental health.

Tell Mastercard and Visa about this. When you call tell them you're going to petition your bank to switch. Doesn't matter how much you think they would. It happened.

Your art isn’t bad just because it’s not selling right now. We’re in a recession and people don’t know when they’re gonna eat next, nobody can afford fun things because the economy is crumbling. It’s going to be hard a while.

So... after what happened at the border today, Clover and I are essentially homeless. I've got no choice but to change my GoFundMe while we look for housing. Anything you can spare will help. www.gofundme.com/f/help-autum...

harbinger of the end ☀

It's out and finally going all the place, for $.99 until the 4th! Come get a little fun in ya. #clown #horror #ebook #halloween books2read.com/u/31Wa8a

I need to hear that people like my writing

I want to quit my job so bad but I don’t have another job waiting for me and I definitely don’t make enough money through my books to go full time.

Source familiar with MasterCard‘s internal workings: The company finds the censorship focus from consumers “profoundly irritating“ amid larger political issues — they want the controversy around paypros censorship to quietly disappear

Who robbed the Louvre? Right answers only

its my birthday! as always my only wish is for people to look at and appreciate my art 🙏 thank you

On this week's #webcomic update - it's the 100th page! 🎉 liegedoomveil.thecomicseries.com

Doodling a new character, Bastian, and his bloodeborne monster proportions lol

The weather is finally chilly, which means spooky season is here! Have you kicked things off with some Victorian vampire T4T erotica? Sarah Linwood has begged for aid from her family’s ancient ally, Lord Rufus. His offer is not what she expected… #smashwords #kobo #vampsky books2read.com/u/m2DwNO

Highly recommend: throwing any and all creatives a DM/comment/email to let them know how their work touched you, whether now or in the past. I never expect a reply. But doing this regularly not only helps others see their art is valued, but improves your own confidence & connection.

My OCs Narsis and Selena💖 I didn't plan this, but sometimes characters live their own lives, ahah. I think that from some point in their life together, Selena fell in love with Narsis, although initially she was not interested in him as a man (at least he's the same age as her son...) #OC #fantasy
