#WIPSnips 16. "Run" Ashrah could grab the orb and leave. Once the Torch Bearers were dead, they would explode, fulfilling the promise of incinerating Sybyk. But she would not run away from the Silk Queen. Not again. Never again. “End her. Only you can.” #ChroniclesOfTheRealms #SayaAshrah #WriteSky

#WIP #art #sketch #oc #ApolloThePeacock #D&D #dnd #TraditionalArt So remember how I said it'd been a minute since I drew anything on paper? Haha, guess what I did tonight? (Turned out damn good, too.) (If this gets labeled, let it be known that I'm being silenced for my love of man tits, lmaoo.)

Ahead of The Residents of James Hotel going wide in a couple of weeks, I have updated the file on Amazon, and on D2D to include the short story "Henrietta's Story" on the end. If you bought the version without, don't worry, you're not missing out. It's still on the blog and will remain there too

So, if anyone's looking for something new to read this weekend, may I humbly suggest my Arcanium series? There's magic. And mayhem. And enchanted crows! 🐦‍⬛ 💙📚 It all starts with River of Crows: books2read.com/RiverOfCrows

The BBC, quite consciously, sets out to demean and belittle trans people. This is both morally contemptible and in breach of its Charter obligations. We've made it super easy for you to write to the BBC and tell it to stop. Please use - and share with your networks. goodlaw.social/2j5q

We really thought we'd reached a point of stability in our lives where we could start catching up on bills and saving for our wedding. Then this. Accepting Ko-Fi donations so we can get the car back. Any little bit helps: ko-fi.com/seannb Thread:

Immense thanks to everyone reading and sharing Shadowbeast 🐺❤️ I'm currently working on the second book and will do my utmost to make it as good as the first. Thank you to all my gothic romance girlies who love their monsters 🧌 www.amazon.com/dp/B0FWC9P4TR

I'm finally planning to start a podcast on monster stuff (prob. called "Dr. Monster" because why not have fun). I'm still sort of working out what that would look like/what people might be interested in terms of topics. If you have any thoughts or requests, I'd love to hear them! Some topics ⬇️

Edits for All Quiet on the Terraces is done! Preorder from Amazon now. Will go on Ko-Fi and D2D on day of release (if not next day, have a busy weekend and start to the week) mybook.to/quietterraces

The #WIPSnips No shirts here, I use the word "tunic" instead #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

"Shirt" is one of those words that appears a lot in romantasy 🥰 so here's a more unconventional use of the word from my #DarkFantasy Death & the Dreamer #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #Fantasy

#WIPSnips Lucifer's anxiety causes him to spill coffee on his shirt during a meeting. So, he decides to change... in front of Virgil. While Virgil is ace, the thing that's wrecking him here is the look. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

#WIPSnips - "Shirt" From The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle I feel like I've shared either this or the bits around it a lot, but oh well 🤣 Still part of this awesome itchio bundle of trans authors!: itch.io/b/3352/trans... Or wide!: books2read.com/u/boB9YL #transhorror #queerhorror #indiehorror

Going to be corny and say I think every book I've read has changed me in some way. The best books--the ones that've stuck with me--have maybe changed me more deeply or significantly, or else their effects are still unravelling. I'd say that Annhilation (& the rest of VanderMeer's works) really set

Any suggestions?

One weird thing about Pagebound is that when I imported my GR info, it set all my reviews to the day I joined Pagebound, so now my reviews a lot of books I read up to ten years ago are getting comments because they're listed as the "most recent" 🤣

It's that time of year again! I've started collecting my annual list of eligibility and recommendation lists and award resources. Check out what people have done and loved this year and send me your own posts to add to the list! acwise.net/what-have-yo...

Your art isn’t bad just because it’s not selling right now. We’re in a recession and people don’t know when they’re gonna eat next, nobody can afford fun things because the economy is crumbling. It’s going to be hard a while.
