Back at the office today after #AFF is such a Crash, I’m exhausted but all I want to do is go home and write, I want to ping all the new people I met and ask them what what ideas have taken hold. I was feeling so down on writing coming into Austin, now I have hope, energy #scriptsky

Hey folks! I know people are stretched a little thin right now but I wanted to boost this fundraiser for @siwc.bsky.social -- which as some may know cancelled this year so as to avoid crossing the picket line for the con hotel staff. (But now they are broke!) Shares appreciated!

I recently received a note that my characters sound too much alike. What are yall’s strategies for voice in dialogue? Especially if you have several people with similar jobs/backgrounds. #scriptsky #scriptwriting

I’m watching the @nytimes feed of Climate Forward today, and boy oh boy those reps from Microsoft and google absolutely refused to answer the questions. They ARE NOT on the side of the planet. Speaking from Omaha where we are running a coal plant just for your corporations.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t directly engage with nsfw work, letting a few large companies control what art is censored is bad for *all* of us. (And let’s be real, they’re coming after all queer work as well even if it contains nothing nsfw.)

Ahh!! We are only $595 away from $40K and 80% funded!! WE CAN DO THIS, SPACE UNICORNS!!

ONE WEEK ONE WEEK!!!!! Last chance to preorder and get goodies! moonpalacebooks.com/item/3Czr8Ta...

The Island of Dreams is my fifth published book and probably the twentieth novel I’ve written. Sometimes, its easy to think, well, its just one of many. But it’s also entirely different from what’s come before. I don’t expect to write anything like it again. I was a sick kid back in the day.
