Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

I love this trend, so I'm hopping on the bandwagon. Look at that mean mug!

This is horrific. Besides being demeaning and cruel, this will make it even more dangerous for Kansas-based trans folks. And for what? To what end? Please, explain to me why this is even remotely "necessary." Oh that's right, the cruelty is the point. 🤬🤬🤬

HEY, I AM DOING ANOTHER FUNDRAISER FOR MINNESOTA RENT FUNDS! AND GIVING AWAY ANOTHER SIGNED ARC (Advance Review Copy) OF OBSTETRIX!!! YOU COULD GET TO READ IT EARLY (it doesn't come out until June) AND HELP MINNESOTA FAMILIES STAY HOUSED!!!!

Another Hollywood night, another musical! Ready for a popstar history lesson care of Six!

Even the most stressful, heavy, or draining days feel more manageable after moving my body, being in a dance class, having that community and energy surrounding me. I'm really grateful I had that tonight. 🥰

So, today started off pretty great and then swan-dove into the biggest shit sandwich ever. Universe, the personal quota for ridiculousness has been reached for 2026. Kindly quit it. 😵‍💫

I am listening to Demons in my Bloodstream by @candacenola.bsky.social and OMG, this is a trip in the very best way. The prose is gorgeous. The stories are brutal. A new favorite for sure!

The whole Nightmare team is dancing because @champwongs.bsky.social's short story "Autogas Ferryman" is a Stoker award finalist! Congratulations, Champ!!! If you haven't read this ghost story, which is both wise & scary, check it out here: www.nightmare-magazine.com/fiction/auto...

I had the distinct pleasure of serving as a judge for a kids' sci-fi short story contest this past month, and let me tell you, it was so inspiring! Their imaginations are boundless. They are paying attention and are *very* aware of what's going on in the world. They are magic and very talented.

I'm thrilled to see Silk & Sinew: A Collection of Folk Horror from the Asian Diaspora on the final ballot of the Bram Stoker Awards. Huge congratulations to @garnetonwinter.bsky.social, all of her brilliant authors, and to all of this year's nominees. Read it: www.goodreads.com/book/show/22...

💙📚🩸 THE WRITHING, VERDANT END compiles 6 uniquely intense, memorable stories of ecological-horror. @coreyfarrenkopf.bsky.social, @tiffmorris.bsky.social, & @ericraglin1992.bsky.social all contribute eerie, haunting tales where human nature & the natural world clash and fight for survival. #MSReview

In honor of black horror month & women in horror month (March), I’m kicking off my weekly WIHM features a week early! 1st up is @lmariewood.bsky.social Her book, The Tryst: The Red Thread Saga Book One, is available now! Wood also recommends you check out @rjacksonjoseph.bsky.social 🖤 (🔗s in 🧵)

Due to the sudden closure of the small press publishing our anthology, we're looking for a new home! "Silk and Foxglove" is a BIPOC anthology of 13 stories of erotic-eco-horror! It's weird, gorgeous, evocative, & unnerving as hell! Please boost! If any small presses are interested, let me know!

This novelette, y'all! Huge congrats, Thomas!

Hell yeah!!!

There I was, casually (and without any expectation) searching for my name in the LA Public Library system and... and...THERE SHE IS! You can borrow an ebook of How Lovely to Be a Woman: Stories and Poems from the LIBRARY! Dream achieved! I'm not crying, you're crying. Okay, love you, bye! 🥹🥹😭😭😭

DAYTIDE IS HERE @rapturepublishing.bsky.social has assembled a gorgeous deluxe limited edition of this sprawling horror fantasy. Fully illustrated, with an introduction by the amazing @pfracassi.bsky.social so you know it’s good. Copies are available through Rapture’s website. SPARK THE HALO!

My @littleghostsbooks.bsky.social quarterly subscription box is always such a joy to open! I can't wait to dive into these reads (don't tell my TBR), and as always, I'm so excited for STICKERS!!!

Gung hay fat choy, my friends! 🥟 #yearofthehorse2026🐴❤️

Our morning walk was a whole mood! 🖤

This Story Hour started with the terrifying true story of guest host @becca.gomezfarrell.com's allergies...and continued with fiction! @gordonbwhite.bsky.social read juicy wedding horror, and @somtoihezue.bsky.social read heartbreaking fantasy/horror. You can still watch! youtu.be/qdgH7yOj1Zs

Today, @bmok.bsky.social and I took a pottery wheel class at Throw Clay LA, walked around the Americana in Glendale, ate dinner at The Cheesecake Factory under the watchful gaze of the Eye of Sauron, and ended the night with churros and chocolate at El Moro. Beautiful day!

And then my love got me a limited edition Annabel Lee roller ball pen for our anniversary. He told me he wanted me to have something nice for my sketches. 🥹

@bmomani.bsky.social and I have wanted to see Book of Mormon for a very long time, and tonight was the night!

Officially starting a rewatch of Schitt's Creek in honor of the late, great Catherine O'Hara. Let's go!

My first listen for #BlackHistoryMonth is The Weight of Blood by Tiffany D. Jackson, and I am *loving* this contemporary take on Stephen King's Carrie!

Everything I read and listened to in January: Scrooged for the Holidays by Kayla Grosse Guillotine by Delilah S. Dawson The Wedding People by Alison Espach Tales of Sley House 2025 The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Kline I enjoyed all five of these books immensely!

I want everyone who has spent years in therapy wondering what is wrong with them, wondering why they had so many bad relationships, why they felt so much dread, to know that it was in part because you were living in a world run by evil, evil people and you could tell that somewhere deep down

10/10 ICE protest sign

Former Texas Lege reporter here. A Dem hasn't held this seat since 1990. Tarrant is the safest of red suburban counties. There is no way the TX and national GOP aren't in panic mode right now.

@bmok.bsky.social drove to Mar Vista for Oaxacan at Quiadaiyn tonight, where I had a glorious flight of mezcal and tried mole chichilo. Then, we went to Echo Park to the newly opened El Moro, which specializes in churros and chocolate. Glorious food night!

So, I'm working on a split collection with @ericraglin1992.bsky.social, and in reflecting on the three pieces I'm working on for it, there's a theme emerging: anger. These are long, angry pieces, and I'm pretty damn proud of them.

HEY I AM DOING A FUNDRAISER FOR MINNESOTA RENT FUNDS AND GIVING AWAY A SIGNED ARC (advance review copy) OF OBSTETRIX THAT'S RIGHT YOU CAN HELP MINNESOTA FAMILIES AND MAYBE GET A FREE EARLY SIGNED COPY OF MY BOOK

"When that man is dead and gone" A protest song about *checks notes* Adolf Hitler recorded eight years ago that Youtube randomly is recommending to people this week for no reason whatsoever 👀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDkh...

I have officially finished my watch-through of Game of Thrones and, y'all...I get it. Those last two episodes are really something, aren't they? 🫠😬

I met my friends Shelly and Kate in a park over lunch to chat and write today, and wouldn't you know it, it healed my soul little. I got over 500 words down in a new story, shared snacks with friends, and got diverted by an active, beautiful protest on the way home. Okay, Friday, okay. 🥰

While running some errands around lunchtime, we visited our favorite shop dog, Oso, who works at Gogosha Optique in Echo Park. There were many carrots and commands and snuggles. We also had lunch at Monty's Good Burger. 10/10 for all of it. Would recommend!

Wouldn't you know it, I channeled my rage into finishing a story today. A very angry story about exes and cockroaches. 🪳😈

8 years married, 14 years together. Here's to many more! Love you, @bmok.bsky.social!

Well... if you need an hour's distraction from all this, @storyhour.bsky.social goes back to basics, the oldest form of entertainment in history: people sitting around telling each other beautiful lies, spinning the fictive dream. I'm reading "Black as Night, Red as Blood, White as Bone" on Wed.

If you’re outside of Minnesota and you’re wondering how to help, this guide is excellent. And seriously. Take down your Ring doorbell TODAY.

the extent to which this administration is out of control is really summed up by the fact that they immediately went with “this was an armed terrorist there to kill law enforcement” knowing that video from multiple angles completely disproving them was out there and would be seen by everyone

The people who'll tell you today's murder victim in Minnesota shouldn't have turned up to a protest carrying a gun are the same people who said Kyle Rittenhouse was perfectly entitled to do the same thing.

The Salt Lake City airport has a decidedly different vibe from Vegas.

The Las Vegas airport is wild! Yes, I expected slots, but I didn't expect a chiropractor and a LEGO store.

We heard there's this little film festival happening in Park City, UT, this weekend, so @imtherealcatlady.bsky.social and I decided to take a girls trip and see what it's all about. 😉 #sundancefilmfestival
