Have you tried being a little plant today? Turn to face the sun? Shake your leaves? Let your roots carry you? Drink your water? Crawl and grow even in impossible environments that defy physics and tangle yourself around people’s necks? No? What’s stopping you?

Man, I fukkin hate that guy.

They say it’s important to find your audience, no matter how niche it is, so: Agamemnon haters, I wrote a book for us. Please preorder it? www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0...

Not to be annoying on main (but also embracing my cringe era because have you seen this fucking timeline?) but if we get seven more orders for my debut, Bløød Price, in the next three days, I'll hit 200 orders for my first year as a published indie author!?? You know what to do. #BookSky

Sapphic September? Bisexual Visibility? This bisexual-owned press who came onto the scene with eight novels by bisexual women now has a catalogue of over 50 books, from the QTIAP+ to global voices. We'd love for you to see us. (We're the ones with one leg on the chair.) #BisexualBooks #Indie

From new releases from big-name authors to buzzy debuts and long-awaited sequels, Fall 2025 is full of exciting new titles for YA readers.

This is tomorrow! Come join us!

Excited to be back at Flights of Foundry and to share this panel with such brilliant folks! You can also catch me on the panels “The Work of Being a Freelancer/Biz Person” and “Pirates and Sea Creatures and Kataw, Oh My!”, details on the Flights of Foundry website. Join us, it’ll be a good one 😎

I'm scheduled for these three sessions at @flightsoffoundry.bsky.social this year! I hope to see many of you folks. The conference is global, virtual, and free. Tons of panels, readings, and other cool events.

Hello friends! This is my @flightsoffoundry.bsky.social schedule for tomorrow! Here we go: - I will be a panelist on Multilingual life for creatives with @millieabecassis.com @witchywonderer.bsky.social @danaiwrites.bsky.social and @jelenawrites.bsky.social Friday: 10 am PDT / 1 pm EDT

Just a double reminder-- Writers, this negging garbage was written by AI and designed to insult you, flatter you, dare you, and scam you. Scammers, this is embarrassingly badly done. Quit it.

So excited to see this up in Fangoria today! I am just going to keep telling everyone how much I love this book.

“Agamemnon dies several times” I’m already excited but this has me seated on my front lawn. The mail delivery driver tells me the book won’t be out for several months in the U.S. I do not care, this is perfection.

Read my interview with Danai! Learn about vile ladies and Vile Lady Villains!

Thank you so much to @omersarae.bsky.social for interviewing me for her Substack (subscribe, if you haven’t already!) We chatted all things Vile Lady Villains and my current obsessions. saraomerauthor.substack.com/p/vile-never...

COVER REVEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited to share the cover of The Lustrous Dark with you! It's everything I could have asked for! Tom Roberts perfectly captured the dark fairytale and epic fantasy vibes of the book! Available for pre-order and on Goodreads!

More praise for VILE LADY VILLAINS, this time from THE Louisa Morgan 🥹 💛 I’ve been a big fan of Louisa’s iconic A Secret History of Witches, and beyond excited for her latest The Faerie Morgana 💛 💫

I've been working on something fun behind the scenes... This HIGHER MAGIC audio cut scene is an exclusive preorder incentive. It stars 3 of the amazing voice actors I worked with on @hauntnowpod.bsky.social. 🧵 @htpbooks.bsky.social @htphive.bsky.social

We woke up without electricity in the Swedish forest. Phone battery low. An eerie silence, as the fridge and all devices have ceased their almost imperceptible but always there electric buzzing. Me, who’ve spent the night doomscrolling: “Is this the rapture they were taking about”

I'm neurodivergent and don't need to be cured. A vaccine didn't make me this way. Tylenol didn't make me this way. I just am. That shouldn't be hard to grasp. Here's my latest book.

Join us this Friday during the first hour of @flightsoffoundry.bsky.social for a panel about Multilingual Life for Creatives! Featuring @witchywonderer.bsky.social, @danaiwrites.bsky.social, @jelenawrites.bsky.social, and @foxesandroses.bsky.social. Register for free at flights-of-foundry.org 🔥

Happy Equinox! May we all find our balance, both in shadow and in light.

Anyone keen on having an early read of my sapphic sci-fi about murder behind the scenes of a reality dating show in space, LOVE GALAXY is available to request now👇

I never thought I’d become that old person stereotype who yells at youngsters “get out of my lawn!” yet somehow it has become part of my daily routine. Of course, in my case, the youngsters are cows.

Tehnuka's "I Welcome the Ant Colonies in Our House" in our issue 21 is a quiet story with a heart full of marching ants:

My story "Intersecting Datafields" is on Manawaker Studio's Flash Fiction Podcast today! Wouldn't you like a little cyborg romance? Thanks to @cbdroege.bsky.social for the great narration. I loved it!

Authors I want to work on your bookssssss. (And this month was tax month and my bank account is feeling that very acutely, so please forgive the uptick in marketing upcoming because I, unfortuantely, enjoy things like the ability to eat.) #BookSky #WriteSky 💙📚🌈📚 thoughtsstainededitorial.com

So completely thrilled that my poem STAR STITCHER (@havenspec.bsky.social) will be in the Year's Best Canadian F&SF alongside this incredible lineup! What amazing company it's in. Can't wait to read everyone's wonderful work in this year's collection.

In case anyone else feels like they're screaming into a void about their work these days, please remember there are countless readers who aren't on social media who have probably read + loved your work without ever saying a word. (Another reason why having a website is so important.)

So cool to see "Bunny Ears" (@nightmare-magazine.com) on this list of August must-reads. Thanks, @bookjockeyalex.bsky.social!

Bodies are such bizarre things because what do you mean if I don’t spend at least half an hour on the floor doing stretches every day my back will protest, but if I do I get a raging headache

Hey! It's midnight on the east coast, so it's release day. Thanks to @undertow.bsky.social for being such a fantastic publisher. Thanks to family, friends, and fellow writers for their support. The short fic grind has ups and downs, but it's a blast. Fricken love what we do. Thanks for reading.

So happy to see this story by @sharangbiswas.bsky.social out in the world!

Strange Horizons published our first issue 25 years ago this month! 🎉 Thank you to everyone who has ever read, shared, submitted, donated! We wouldn't be here without you and we hope you'll continue to support us into the future!

TO CLUTCH A RAZOR is out today! A funeral heist at the worst family gathering ever? Why not. Add in some monsters from Slavic folklore (and beyond)? Even better. 📚💙 Get it at your local indie or wherever you get books— here’s a link! bookshop.org/p/books/to-c...

MIDNIGHT ROOMS by @okokno.bsky.social is perhaps the most perfect book to read when you can't sleep for several nights in a row and you're already in a bit of an end-of-summer haze. Such a strange, lovely, terrifying dream state of a book. I hadn't read it before but am sure I will again.

Things I text my author friends at 2am

After 7 years in Sweden, it finally happened: I thought of a word in Swedish first. Then I translated it ito Greek in my head, and realized I was drawing a blank on the English translation. After a very frustrating minute, I decided to google it. Nutmeg. The word was nutmeg.

What peak performance looks like

Tonight, I've begun editing some of the short stories in the @starsandsabers.bsky.social #horror anthology, OF DREAD, DECAY, AND DOOM. It's moved to a June 2026 release, and we're now 17% funded via our Ko-fi campaign. Head here to learn more and contribute: ko-fi.com/post/Our-Thi... #books

Psst....want to help a small author with exactly £0 marketing budget? Add my book on Goodreads, or share this post so it reaches more folks who love bookish boys & slow burn romance. 💜🙏🏻

One of my author dreams is to reach 1,000 reviews on Amazon, and I think I can do it with MY DAUGHTER'S REVENGE. If you have read it, PLEASE give it some stars (if you haven't read it, it's just £1.99 or free on Kindle Unlimited). When I reach 1,000 I'm doing a massive giveaway 😍 amzn.eu/d/cZpwnUa
