Which one? There's a thriller, a dark fantasy, a historical speculative, a romcom.... #lgbtqwriteathon

Hair dryer. I will not elaborate.

#queerwriterschat Long nights: Shard Virat Naadiya Long days: Seth Cody JoJo Daniel Both bc who needs sleep: Felix Rabbit

#queerwriterschat Hi, I'm Riv, author and editor. I've got a romantic thriller on sub, and I'm writing a regular thriller as well as a dark fantasy and some poetry.

#queerprompts Free Friday? The current sexualities in this WIP draft. Who knows what will change as I go. Trans masc Bisexual Gay Pan Lesbian Demi & ace Aro

What secrets do they keep from each other? 🤣🤣😭 Spoilers, sweetie. #queerprompts

#queerprompts What food would my characters be? A SNACK *badum-dum ching* Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all month.

The Māori word for #autism is takiwatanga, ‘in their own time and space’ I for one think it’s lovely to describe the condition I can relate to this as I find focusing on one thing at a time works better for me.

Me: Ugh, I wonder why it feels so sticky out. It's not even hot today. Dear Reader....

#queerprompts Shard blames her child self for what happened. If only she'd been stronger. Braver. But she's wrong. It wasn't her fault at all.

#queerprompts In my current wip, Seth needs to actually speak up for himself and be willing to stand up to other people. No more people pleasing!

So far, action adventure with RPG elements, but within a narrative structure. Visual novel action adventure? 😂 #queerprompts

"i asked grok" "i asked chatgpt" yeah well i asked carl sagan and he said the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance but the illusion of knowledge 🧪

PBS’s official Facebook page posted this. I don’t think they’re going quietly.

What's your emotional support TV show?

I mean, V has his wheelchair for bad leg days. Seth has patient found family who wait calmly for his anxiety to let him speak. My tism babies embrace it. My ADHDers became hackers bc who can sit in an office and listen to people for eight hours, really? #queerwriterschat #queerwriters

Oooh yes! Depending on your definition: Butterfly thriller WIP: Ambulatory wheelchair user (peripheral neuropathy) Anxiety Autism ADHD BPD Sociopathy Disordered eating Flies thriller on sub: cPTSD PTSD ADHD Autism Amputee #queerwriterschat #queerwriters

#queerwriterschat I'm Riv, author and editor. I'm a witchy enby writing in stolen minutes around three jobs, eeek. I've got a romantic thriller on sub (queernormative) and a thriller WIP (can I get away with a trans MC? I've got at least four drafts left to decide.)

"Undocumented immigrants pay $100 billion in taxes a year. The rich dodge $170 billion in taxes a year. So if you really want to deport the freeloaders..." ⁻ ᴳⁱᵛᵉ ᴬ ˢʰⁱᵗ ᴬᵇᵒᵘᵗ ᴺᵃᵗᵘʳᵉ

Shard is here to save her baby and GTFO. But life doesn't always work out. Hell, for her, it never does. Seth is trying to keep his found family together as betrayal and kidnapping and secrets tear them apart. My poor baby. #writingq

Sometimes you just need a cat in a ball pit. #catthreads

Two chapters back from my alpha reader. Now I can relax and actually work on the next one 😂

Someone break out the whip and tell me to get writing. Distractions are distractioning today. #writingcommunity

#latenightwrite I'm not consciously subverting. I just write the characters as they are, like real people--enbies with teal hair and sass, ace hackers, pan con artists, etc. Does writing as an enby cause subconscious subversion? SECRET SUBVERT

#latenightwrite I'm Riv! I've got a romantic thriller set in Chicago that's out on sub. While I wait, I'm drafting another thriller, this time with a heist 🔥 Bonus round: blue Curacao on the rocks. Don't judge me 😂

Depends on the story. Shard's fear and guardedness and drive to protect her child make her vulnerable and human Seth (name subject to change) is a walking cinnamon roll so 😂 #queerprompts

#IAmNonbinary with a queernormative romantic thriller on sub and another queers-out thriller in the works!

For 99% of people, the only advice you need on writing your book is "actually write it." Like, there's loads of advice I can give you on it once you've done that. But for the most part "stop fantasizing about it and put words on a damn page" is the correct answer.

Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

It's Non-binary Day! After years of being "a tomboy" and "androgynous" and "allergic to pink" and "you look like a lesbian" (😂 they're not wrong), I finally tattooed the truth on my ankle. Non-binary flag in the non-binary symbol 🌈 #nonbinary #lgbtq

ICE is no longer immigration enforcement. It’s a sprawling secret police with a budget bigger than some nations’ armies. No oversight. Questionable training. Just masks, unmarked vans, and executive authority. If you think this stops at the border, you’re not paying attention.

Ready for something new? Drafting a new thriller. It definitely won't rip out your heart. #writingcommunity

Shard needs to con a $1 million code from a hacker in 3 days to save her daughter. But someone else is after her target. A shy, curly-haired, mathy someone. Someone with almost as many secrets as she. This is one battle of wits Shard can't afford to lose. #p2ppit #S #T #R

The Darkness Outside Us

SoCal friends, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. A few things I wish I’d known as we evacuated ahead of a wildfire (that took our home in 2021) 🧵

"Oh, that's so MEAN!" -me, out loud, about the plot twist I just created My poor characters.
