if you can help me (oh my god please help me) i have a glorified tip jar patreon (ive been doing co working two hour sessions and a monthly session for questions. this month i was going to play with the story engine so people could meet it) please don’t use the app they will take 30%

If I'm a real writer, then how do I mix up "passed" and "past" all the time?

May 2020: Red Noise This was me taking everything I loved about samurai flicks and westerns and adding honestly very few nuclear weapons into the mix. angryrobotbooks.com/books/red-no...

Shadow of the Batgirl came out in March of 2020 😅 Written by Sarah Kuhn, drawn by me and colored by Cris Peter. Cassandra Cain is raised by her father to be an assassin with no speech. She breaks away from that life and hides in a library, discovering that her future is what she makes it.

Wishing all humans behind this some papercuts and lemon juice.

"A beautiful read aided by Kurella’s skilled and poetical use of language. This is a story I strongly recommend." 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Happy to announce that Someone You Can Build A Nest In will be translated and released in Spain this January!

this archetype remains undefeated

As a kid who grew up reading Peter Benchley's The Beast, I've got to say... WHOA.

Looks like Housemarque secretly made Returnal 2. Which is great because Returnal was one of the best games of the year.

Oh man so Hades 2 is THAT GOOD, huh?

That is a very smart rec, @reactorsff.bsky.social ! New excerpt just dropped! Catch some thieves before they escape and launch next week!

This was so damn sweet! I got teary!

ladies if he’s a matador that is a huge red flag

If you're tired and need a hug today, I'd like to offer this story of mine. It's about a haunted house so lonely that it promises it'll behave if anyone will just live in it.

I think a lot about how if I had tweeted about "Open House on Haunted Hill" one hour later, or if exactly the right people didn't see it and boost it in that moment, it never would have viraled. Without that, the rest of my career probably wouldn't happen. It's that fragile.

Thanks, I love it.

💀 ENERO Alguien en quien anidar, de de John Wiswell — @wiswell.bsky.social Ganadora del Nébula y el Locus 2025, finalista del Hugo. Un body horror sáfico sobre un monstruo que se alimenta del cuerpo de sus víctimas y que se... enamora. Si Runas intentara escribir un Romantasy… sería esto.

I swear to god if a person develops a rain cape for wheelchair users that is both inexpensive and cute I will throw so much money at them. Right now my options are to look like I’m wearing a tent or be very wet.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles is here, and it’s an impressive remaster of the classic PlayStation SRPG. For my review, I did something a bit different: Gathered your AMA-style questions, and spilled tea on the new graphics, Delita’s kissability/punchability, difficulty, and more!

It's times like these that remind us that evolution is less "survival of the fittest" and more "whatever, that works."

Share one of your favorite black and white movies.

It feels like nobody appreciates how close their favorite author/musician/director came to never being a thing. A flap of butterfly wings away from the most famous creator you enjoy never getting a chance.

I regret to relay that Jon Lasser passed away. He was a kind peer and delightful writer. If you read any SFF magazine, you probably read a story of his, and you surely enjoyed it. I'm going to miss him.

in which i have sold some books & now must write them

This is amazing.

Jimmy Kimmel: "Most of all, I want to thank the people who don’t support my show and what I believe, but support my right to share those beliefs anyway."

Alien Earth is a case study in a season of television resolving so little and paying off so little that the only point of the plot is to get renewed.

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

Reminder to everybody in this administration that you only have a couple hours left to release the Epstein Files if you still want to get Raptured to Heaven.

Have I mentioned that @nassos.bsky.social's SOUR CHERRY is one of my favorite novels of the year?

Nothing says cozy horror quite like a tonberry.

It's SPREADING! If you liked John Carpenter's The Thing but wished it was way hornier and queerer, boy has Gailey got a book for you!

The word is out! I'll be Guest of Honor at Arisia this January! This is baby's first Guesting. I don't think I've ever been a 'guest' at any event. But now I shall guest... WITH HONOR.
