Good Morning, #LGBTQWriteAThon & Happy October! My name is Addy & I write fantasy, scifi, & some horror. WIPs for this month are finishing revisions on my cyberpunk-esque Snow White retelling, but also going to start outlining/drafting a sequel to "Where We Converge." I'm so freaking excited!!!

Hi, #LGBTQWriteAThon ☺️ I’m Clover, and I’m a biromantic, asexual, non-binary author (I usually just say “queer” for brevity) from the east coast of the US. My goal for this month is to finish a dark fantasy short story that will be submitted to a local anthology publication. Wish me luck! 🍀

Happy #LGBTQWriteAThon! 🥳 I'm Sarina, and I write epic fantasy and urban paranormal fantasy. I'll be aiming to get as far into the second half of Esta 4/Book 16 this month as I can! The first draft is going well, but I do have a cold which makes my head fuzzy.

🌘⭐IT'S TRIPLE COVER REVEAL TIME ⭐🌒 Behold, the three covers for the books I lovingly call The Problem Children. A huge thank you to @chaoticauthor.online for the trailer 💜 [1/2] #booksky #fantasywriter #writingcommunity

Happy release day to @chaoticauthor.online and this delightful little collection, which made me feel so seen 💜 Also, the poetry is excellent!

Good morning, #writingcommunity! HAPPY SPOOKTOBER 🥳🍂 What are you working on today? What's your writing plan for this month? I want to get as far into the second half of Esta 4 as I can in October, and I have a triple cover reveal in a bit today 😎 #writingfantasy

omg three cover reveals tomorrow 😱 *flails*

I'VE DONE IT I'VE WRITTEN THE ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I've also sent Problem Child 1 to my formatter, but I'm kinda more excited that the acknowledgments are done. #writingcommunity #fantasywriter

Good morning, BlueSky! What are you writing/editing/otherwise creating this week? I'm more used to the new routine now and determined to hit 30k in my WIP this week. Also, triple cover reveal on Wednesday 👀 #writingcommunity #fantasywriters

In case you need to hear it today: Being exhausted is completely valid. The world is exhausting and actively trying to wear you down. There is nothing wrong with you if you are feeling it. The wrong in this aspect is folks of the world trying to make you think this is normal.

Episode 4 of #TheReadingSparrow podcast is out now! In this one, I talked to @beverleylee.bsky.social about her book The Sum of Your Flesh, quaint little villages, and bubbling ideas. Listen to it here: ko-fi.com/post/S1-E4-T... #writingcommunity #booksky

Friendly reminder that when folks say that you "have" to follow specific writing advice, you do not, in fact, have to. What they are sharing is what works for them, and while it might be useful, there is no one way to get your writing out into the world. Do what works for you. #WritingCommunity

If you are in or have been in a trans person's life, you should come to terms with the fact that they've mentally evaluated how likely you are to rat on them to the cops if the government starts cracking down harder on us.

Ah, the joys of coming back to my WIP after roughly a week of not writing... to a new, blank chapter. After my MC's goal has changed completely. Why did I do this to myself. #writingcommunity #fantasywriter

Cover reveal in one week 👀

ffs just thought I was nearly ready to send my book to my formatter, then remembered books have front and back matter 😑 #writingcommunity #writingfantasy

Good morning, BlueSky! I'm back at work today after being off since August and trying to remember how to do my job 🤣 What are you writing/editing/worldbuilding this week? I'll be happy if I get any writing done around work while I adjust to the routine change. #writingcommunity #fantasywriters

Hi, I'm Kara (they/them). I'm a queer, autistic author who writes queer historical-paranormal fantasy books. I've published 10 novels, a handful of short stories, and a novella, which you can get by joining my newsletter. My newsletter: eepurl.com/bfJTW9 My books: books2read.com/ap/nAkLmr/Ka...

In case you missed it earlier:

DNF one fantasy book I started because I felt detached from it even though I loved the premise. Next book had a similar feel, but I was immediately engrossed. Which is to say, there is a strange alchemy that happens between book and reader that cannot be predicted, so just do your thing 😂💜

Episode 3 of #TheReadingSparrow podcast is now out! 🥳 In this one, I talked to @aebrossbooks.bsky.social about their book Where We Converge, time travel, Chicago, and how much they hate writing magic systems (Addy, noooooo 😱) ko-fi.com/post/S1-E3-W... #writingcommunity

I told my partner the other day that I actually quite liked back to school as a child because it meant I got new stationery, and he said, 'What's stopping you?', so anyway, I just bought myself new stationery 💛😊

I loved this book, btw!!

There's no such thing as #1 Pinned Post🧵 to rule them all, but I shall post it nonetheless. It'll be gay, neurodiverse & beyond the binary. For those who wander but are not lost & ponder "what if"? It'll contain my books of the above, Final Fantasy +Narnia inspired, &invite All Writers to Discord👇

Battle doomscrolling by posting 5 small pleasures in life: 1. petting/cuddling a cat 2. a good cup of tea (esp. first thing in the morning!) 3. getting into a fantastic new video game 4. the sound of rain 5. taking my bra off at the end of the day

You can listen to me reading my Rhysling finalist hopepunk poem, "Star Stitcher," here:

Happy release day to @brianamorganbooks.bsky.social and this treasure of a book!! 😍 Ever wondered if poetry could be used as magic? Well, this book does just that!

Good morning, BlueSky! Happy Monday! :) What are you writing/otherwise working on this week? I'm back at work next week, so I'm determined not to do anything too stressful. If I can get a few chapters of Esta 4 written, *maybe* reach the midpoint* I'll be happy. #writingcommunity #fantasywriter

No, wait, hear me out: what if I STARTED with the blurb? Just let it all out: what I think the midpoint will be, the tensions it might have... I'm excited to write so early on, and it'll give me a (bad) first-draft blurb later when I don't want to do it? Surely this is the way?? 👀 #writingcommunity

Guess what I've done again? 😐

Can confirm that it goes great with your morning brew!

Episode 2 of #TheWritingSparrow podcast is out! 🥳 This time, I talked to @chaoticauthor.online about his book Salmonweird, a confused dead monk, and history. ko-fi.com/post/S1-E2-S... #writingcommunity #booksky

Good morning, #writingcommunity! What are you writing today? I've been so busy with other writing projects the rest of the week that I'd really like to get some writing done on Esta 4.

There's so much thunder today! 🥰

This week, I have quick-drafted three blurbs, rewritten all three into first person (actually happy with them!), edited a short story I struggled with (happy with that now, too!), and done adulting things like gone to the post office. Guess who feels burnt out af today? #writingcommunity

Who likes a good cover reveal? 🙋 Well, I've got three coming your way on October 1st 👀👀👀 My newsletter subscribers will get them a full week early, if you're into that 😉 You can sign up here and see them a week early, too: sarinalanger.com/newsletter/ #booksky #fantasywriter
