🌈 Hey Reading Rainbows! It’s time for our next artist reveal for the May Knights in Shining Armor crate! Next up is Therena @therena.art who illustrated the hardcase for Tarnished by Erica Rose Eberhart @ericaroseeberhart.bsky.social 🧵

I will say this: the reason why we are constantly reinforcing why it's important for Black authors to write Black romance is that writing a completely Black couple has a totally different dynamic than writing interracial romance. #Blackromance

Got my teeth deep into this round of revisions, feeling great about some pieces settling back where they originally were three drafts ago. And I'm making it weirder and darker than ever! Seven chapters down, twenty odd to go.

1. Idaho banned the pride flag on government property. So Boise made the pride flag their official city flag, which allowed them to fly it. Then Idaho banned new city flags. So in response, Boise has now wrapped the poles themselves in rainbows! Subscribe to support our journalism.

I have a new essay out today. For Welcome To Hellworld I wrote about my home, Minneapolis, again; I worked through some thoughts on why the concept of "victory" feels so hollow right now but why it might signal something far more important in the future. www.welcometohellworld.com/we-are-the-c...

#AntagonistApril 9. Ashrah doesn’t think in terms of “good” and “evil,” that’s not the morality of the Netherrealm, and neither does she believe in this once she gains a deeper insight into the Universe and herself. So no, she doesn’t see her enemies as evil. (1/2) #ChroniclesOfTheRealms

i was a little worried when i started editing @cancelmedaddy.bsky.social that i was gonna feel overwhelmed by political conversations but it has actually been so cathartic to be part of this creative process and get to listen to very smart people just demolish pieces of shit like her

The contrast between 3D printing and AI is a bit staggering. Both are technologies that became available relatively recently for everyday users. But 3D printing slaps and corporations hate it. Whereas AI is brain-shrivelling bullshit that corporations love to shove down our throats.

is it medieval or is someone just in armor

Here’s the cover

Hey #scriptsky @smarshwrites.bsky.social started a discord for underrepresented genders in the screenwriting world for feedback, resources, etc. I’m helping with recruiting cause I’m crazy & need to be busy at all times or I fade away like a picture in Back to the Future. If interested hit me up.

Writers and artists and creatives of all sorts: reply with a link to one of your works, if you'd like. And feel free to tell us about it. Everyone: let's check through the replies and buy some creations and support some human beings.

Hey-ya-hey! I grew up helping harvest and eating manoomin. Right now I order it from the White Earth Reservation when my cousins don't mail me enough to fill my craving. Along with the fun and the work of harvest was a quiet fear for the shrinking manoomin lakes. But now they're GROWING!

Made a quick #agentguide (and hopefully future reader's guide!) to my #horror novel, Finish the Ritual. It's all fun and & games until you get a letter from someone who's been dead five years! #horrorwriters #horrorcommunity #writingcommunity #horrorsky #amquerying #amwriting

welcome to HLM! I always know when Laura's reading something great because the slack messages get less and less coherent by the day, and this project was no exception

I'm thrilled to be working with V. S. on his incredible fantasy novel. THE PASSING OF EIR LAHREN is a dark, queer, necromantic masterpiece where storms eat people, sex magic saves lives, and souls are, to disastrous consequences, treated like playthings 😈

God it feels weird to be excited about anything right now.

The news is finally here: I’ve signed with Laura Zats of Headwater! @lzats.bsky.social fell in love with THE PASSING OF EIR LAHREN and I’m so excited to work with someone so dedicated to the art of writing and who loves the weird and undefinable. She totally understands Ivigh's complex, messy story.

Facts spoken by an ex-trumper...

Y'all there is a woman and a black man circling the moon and NASA's mission control+ science teams are so diverse and people are nerding out about science and exploration this is all a gigantic middle finger to the stupid and hate and grotesque ghouls running our country

Hey all, what are some of your favorite Midfle Grade verse novels? I’m ordering some for my kiddo’s school library to help build out their poetry month display.

PSA: Ocean of PDF is another illegal pirating sight. They are stealing our work for their own profit. Don't fall victim, don't hit their donate button, especially don't buy! and tell all your reader friends. Pirating hurts authors, editors, cover designers, bookstores - & readers!

And if you could be so kind, some shares, boosts and donations to help me get surgery would change my life 💗

The Bear - Andrew Krivak And the rest I could change out a few but in no particular order: Gideon the Ninth - Tamsyn Muir You Weren't Meant to be Human - Andrew Joseph White A Short History of Nearly Everything - Bill Bryson and perhaps pretentious but it instilled a lot in me: The Odyssey

Ivigh would pretend to hate just about any job, but he'd be particularly bad at any people-facing service. Working a shop counter might be on the edge of fine, but anything that requires being a people person not so much.

Some very exciting news is dropping soon, watch this space ✒️

Put this on while watching my ex-best friend's three kids for a week and a half. Not the only reason we're not friends anymore, but perhaps a factor.

Make sure to traumatize the kids this Easter weekend with this wholesome family flick.
