Huge day for sapphics 🥰

It's a great day to call your reps and support trans people ❤️

Pounded in the butt by the handsome lesbian manifestation of my ADHD while I learn that refusing to accommodate myself is unkind OR I'm gay for my sentient toolbelt

Me, watching Tropic Thunder for the first time: oh man, it just drops you in en media res? DH: Yup! Me: oh no, not sure I'll be able to keep up with the worldbuilding

Role Playing by Cathy Yardley (demi and bi rep) Forget Me Not by Alyson Derrick (who you are was always meant to happen 🥲) The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun (OCD and ace rep)

All of it 😈 I want all the queer and disabled and BIPOC experiences so everyone can see themselves in what they're reading! I want every marginalized community to get to write every trope until we're all sick of seeing our specific combo of labels fake date or fight demon crocodiles or what have you

Jen's struggles with ADHD mirror my own--the "why can't I just do this," the shoulding, the shame and frustration around all of that--and I want anyone who reads it to know that it's okay to accommodate their brain and there's nothing wrong with needing a different path

Hmmm like a few others I haven't done as much comp searching yet but I'd say the AuDHD pairing of Cleat Cute meets a butch4butch HGTV's Home Town?

It was a few things but one of the biggest inspirations was the lack of butch/butch sapphic pairings in trad contemporary romance!

This week: write something! Anything! This month: get back into my writing routine I'm setting the bar low, my executive function is at an all time low 😬

Hey folks, I have a huge request for Pride: Trevor Project is recruiting for a landmark new study. If you are LGBTQ, in the United States, and between 13-24 or know someone who is, pass this along to them. Trevor’s research has led to meaningful defenses of queer and trans lives. Take the survey

Happy Pride Month 2025 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Be gay do crow stuff #pridemonth #pridecrows

Hey #LGBTQWriteAThon! I'm Karsyn, a bi and ace-spec author of all sorts of romance but lately anything sapphic! I'm in early days of a new draft but this is my first line, courtesy of my MC Jen: I should’ve known I’d overdick this.

Time to post it again.

I'm only three episodes in but do yourself a favor and watch Laid with Stephanie Hsu?!? It's hilarious and dark and deeply compelling to watch

Playing Pokémon Snap for the first time and it's basically making this face 🥹🥹🥹 at every single Pokémon and going "awhhhhhhhhh," basically a dream come true

If you do in fact want Covid boosters for yourself or anyone, you can submit public comment to the FDA here: www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD...

those evil assholes passed their big death bill in the house, but it is not over. please call your reps & senators (esp gop!) today and tell them how pissed off you are and let them know that you are paying attention. reps.fyi

I need cis people to understand that if this bill passes, thousands of trans people will die. That's not hyperbole. That's not sensationalism. That's fact. You know the genocide of trans people in the United States you refuse to acknowledge? It's here.

It's a great night to call your reps, y'all!

I needed to be much clearer in my now-escaped thread (see below) and so should have the OP that the FDA has announced PLANS. It has not carried out those plans yet. We can push back. We can try to get a shot. Don't close the window for them. bsky.app/profile/alys...

They're literally trying to keep people from getting the COVID vaccine. Commenting here is an easy and quick way to push back.

#romancelandia help me! I'm trying to pick my next read bc lots of Libby holds arrived at once 😂😭 what should be first: - A Shore Thing by Joanna Lowell - All That They Desire by Zoe York - Every Dark Desire by Fiona Zedde - Futbolista by Jonny Garza Villa - Her Husband's Harlot by Grace Callaway

I don't have a problem watching movies with other people *unless* they're just fucking talking constantly and complaining about the conventions of THE GENRE OF THE MOVIE

Sharing so you can block it

Me when I read a trope I've always claimed to hate but end up loving it 🙈 #romancelandia

If I am elected, I will make every professional sports commentating duo be comprised of two rivals who also a little bit want to kiss #romancelandia

I've seen Bull Durham in the #romcombracket that @romeverafter.bsky.social puts on for about three years and now I'm finally watching it! We've got banter crackling between the leads, we've got yearning already starting, we've got what appears to be a proudly slutty female lead?! 🥰🥰🥰

May your 4th be filled with Wookiee-inclusivity ❤️

I wrote 2500 words yesterday 🥲 I've been in revision purgatory on two separate projects for almost a year, drafting feels so weird

Me, relatively confidently: yes, I am an adult Also me: *slithering off my couch to the floor and crawling away so the solicitor coming to my door does not see that I'm home when they knock*

Saint would be gathered, gagged, and gooped by this one

DELILAH 💚XCLEAT CUTE Volunteer coaches wanted: Need to rehab ur rep so ur old coach will hire u? Has ur younger sis cried out for help & u need a venue to be there for her emotionally? Requirements: 🏐 exp, hidden emotional depth, willing to fall in ❤️ with ur old teammate who h8s u #r #a #posterpitq

When a spy’s cover is blown while in bed with her final target, she has to go on the run with the woman she betrayed, all while trying to decide if retirement is worth risking her heart and her life. #r #a #posterpitq

I wish instead of all the AI garbage "tech" we could have the technology we all need: an add-on purchase for a romance author's ebook that can alter the name of the MC so it isn't your parent or sibling's name!

Not only does SHE STILL GET YOUR MONEY, you can see how she spends it.

It’s Wednesday, which is always a good day to remind you that trans people of all ages are people who deserve the same love and protection as anyone else. Fuck off TERFs. Fuck off transphobes.

JKR funded the campaign group behind all this btw. This is why we beg you to stop engaging with Harry Potter media.

This is where your Harry Potter money goes

We need to just start reply to "I use ChatGPT to" with "damn, skill issue, wild horses could not pull that from me." Just wrinkle your nose and turn away type shit

I just finished the audiobook for Fake Dates and Mooncakes by Sher Lee (so adorable it hurts) and my eyeballs are reading Bachelorette Number 12 by Jae! It's my first by her :)

Even if we aren't chosen, we got an opportunity to polish up our query packages and there's plenty we can do from here! Keep going 🥹

I need a reality check @vbrasch.bsky.social, do they really call sno-cones and other shaved ice treats "water ice" in your neck of the woods?

The editors for their time and hugely to you, @ambucsaru.bsky.social!!!! It was so fun to have the little bright spots brought on by your prompts and reading everyone's responses :)

"you're not better than me for not using ai." no, i am. i am better, smarter, funnier, hotter, and all around less obnoxious than you for that one reason.

I think extend my mental health break a liiiiittle bit longer then draft something new :)

Former pantser turned relatively hardcore plotter! I don't even start drafting (outside of a few snippets for vibes purposes) until I have a beat outline and my chapters mapped out! But sometimes my characters still go off on wild hairs 😂

A very graphic novel heavy start to my 5 star reads of 2025! And a peek at my never ending TBR :) Y'all are just going to have to pretend everything is the same size in these graphics 💀

Omg I had no idea that this week existed but it's maybe my favorite holiday now??!
