Ah, I forgot to post this this year. Thankfully, this guy has me covered!

My story is called "Pickaxes and Poor Choices," and it's about lumps of god in them thar hills. I haven't read the others yet, but I'm sure they're great too! www.amazon.com/Forbidden-Fr...

My first published MC was Zack. His name was taken from Xak, short for Xakana. AKA, I gave him my name because it's one of my favorite names, & I WAS him in the dream (I was still an egg at the time and figured I couldn't ACTUALLY have it, so I would still get to use it that way).

My first published series started as a transcription of the dream I had AS my MC. I dream of my characters occasionally. Sometimes I dream of writing, and sometimes I dream of them specifically. Not as often as I'd like, though.

It's gonna be a good one!

One of my favorites is 'The Deep' by Rivers Solomon. I love ocean life and mermaids, and really enjoyed the unique take, how it tackled history, trauma, generational trauma, and healing both of self and community. #Bookvember

The bear is made with soft chunky yarn and is well over two feet long toes to ears!! The hat and scarf are a beautiful forest green and extremely cozy!! The candle is handmade and smells of a warm coffee shop! Claim this gift box today!! #crochet 🧶 #fiberart #fiberartist #disabledcreator 🎨💼

'The Girl from the Sea' by Lee Knox Ostertag (credited as Molly Knox Ostertag) was a sapphic fantasy graphic novel that I got for my third born when they were 10 or 11. They read it repeatedly (I read it, too, and it was good!) and bemoaned it being a standalone. #QueerPrompts

No, that's a(n obligate) carnivore. Caucus is the macronutrient that provides fast energy.

Sure would be great if we could instead focus on expanding the right to marry to include disabled people no longer being treated like the property of their spouse and/or being punished for finding stable companionship by losing their benefits.

If you see this, post your bird art 🦜 #birds

I mean it’s Monday, but if anyone wants a fat cat… I’ll still draw it for you!! I need to raise at least $60 for the water bill on the 17th. #helpsky 💕💸

Obviously, my own books fit this, but if you haven't read it and like going on fantastical adventures, you should check out Once Upon a Wave of Witches by Helen Whistberry and Eli Belt! books2read.com/WaveOfWitches

My lap last night when 9 needed me to go get them something XD

We're snailposting, post your snails!

He took his cut!?

Sometimes writing is so lonely. Writing something you want to share, but out of context, it's probably meaningless, and it's a kind of spoiler for your audience, lol, and it doesn't fit the kind of thing that your writing group seems to be most interested in reading (esp. being on the longer side)

Any of my artist peeps interested? (I love this game series; I'm not just posting a random op)

A daily word prompt meant to inspire any type of creativity. Share your art, original words, poetry, writing snippets, photos, etc. NO A/"I" please! Alt text on images appreciated. Tag your post: #whistpr Word for November 9, 2025: #SIP #WritingPrompt #Art #WritingCommunity

We need to remember to teach kids that AI is trained on what only humans and nature can create. It can't "create." But it's true that it can free hard af to ID AI art/natute photos, and I've lost a lot of joy looking at ANY now because AI has poisoned the well. It's stripped enjoyment from art.

It really does mean the world

I don't buy every bundle I enter my books in, but having read the blurbs of these fantasy, romance and other books... I bought this one 😉.

In case you missed it! This is a great bundle just in time for Transgender Awareness Month!

As it's a mirror of ours, it's the same as here. I have 2 major intersex characters in Found Humanity. One is Lex, mistaken as only their Nephilim heritage (chimeric 46,XX/46,XY, SRY negative), & the other is a spoiler, sorry, but that character was altered as an infant and lied to. #QueerPrompts

If you order one of my sticker bundles on kofi THIS WEEKEND ONLY I will include a fat cat drawing for funsies. ko-fi.com/beverlyannem... #artsky #booksky 💙📚

I am incredibly amused by how many people make lists that exist to reciprocate blocks and the often-hilarious names and/or descriptions they give them. Like. Mood.

I love writing all over fantasy, but sci-fantasy is my darling. It's my favorite to read and write.

Every time I see a thing about how horrible social media is, it makes good points (and there ARE a lot of awful things about it), but it isn't enough to take away the bursts of love and joy I get from it. Legit, full-chest love bursts for y'all when we're interacting, just like with friends IRL.

You know what makes the daylight savings time > standard time drag a whole lot better? Books featuring trans characters making their way in the world. Guess what? There's a specific itchio bundle for that. Check out the Trans People Take on the World bundle until Nov. 15 📚💙 itch.io/b/3352/trans...

WHO WANTS TO BE THE 50TH?! AND THEN LETS SHOOT FOR 69TH. LETS GO

@amaralynn.bsky.social 's Gems and Star Flowers is funding a gay sci-fi romance audiobook... And you know how much we love gay sci-fi romances! 6 follows away. #Scifi #Booksky #Audiobook

With Gabby's series, you can just read the first if you want! But if you continue, he eventually leaves his primary genre and is dropped into others. He's pretty adaptable and understands the concept of genre-awareness, but the changes still affect him in ways he doesn't realize.

I just write the story and then struggle with what the genre is after. This results in a lot of not fitting in genre boxes. I can say "This story is technically urban fantasy because it's in a modern city with vampires and isn't horror" but no magic, crime fighting, etc. means unmet expectations.

When I looked at marketplace, my pre-existing conditions meant there were no plans for under $350/mo for me alone. I make $40/month before site fees. My husband's job has frozen rates for medical insurance, but if anything happens to it, it's game over for me. My (cheap!) meds are life-sustaining.

Could really use a sale or two this weekend!! Sticker bundles, books, crochet items, and candles!! etsy: spilledinkcoffeebook.etsy.com kofi: ko-fi.com/beverlyannem... #booksky #etsy #crochet 🧶 #fiberart #fiberartist #amigurumi #handmade #candles 💙📚

CN: ableist language Executive dysfunction is frustrating in a way that people who've never experienced it can't understand. You KNOW you need to do the thing. Sometimes 'the thing' is pleasurable! But you can't. You can't send the signals to your body that lead to action without an override.

TW: mental health, guns It would be a lot shorter. There are alt universes where it happened, and Gabby doesn't make it to Chapter Two in a single one of them.

Happy N7 Day!

It was a free-for-all for sure. I was far more scarred by that with movies than books. I'd say books set me free. #Bookvember

Next select Settings, and then Moderation on the next screen. At the bottom of the Moderation page under "Advanced" is a section called "Bluesky Moderation Service" that looks like an info box. It in fact leads to more settings.

Are there any artists in jamaica that need help? I’d like to reblog your posts

I hope it's at least an 8! #QueerPrompts

It's awesome if you do either, but if you do both, it makes a huge impact! And you can copy/paste from where you bought it to Goodreads and/or Storygraph or wherever you record your book conquests!

A new poem came to me while going on a short walk today. I sat on a bench and wrote it out, and then recorded it when I got home. This is a poem about being nonbinary and trans #poetry www.instagram.com/reel/DQpcIJw...
