I launched an indie webcomic hosting platform several months ago that offered a free and a $4/mo paid plan. This was purely to cover the cost of the infrastructure. But in seeing it grow, I'm no longer worried about the cost. So yeah Webcomic Studio is now free. webcomic.studio

My biggest conspiracy theory is that telling working class people that engagement in the arts is a middle / upper class thing and to do so makes you a class traitor is a psyop to make them disengaged with themselves and the world and the beauty of being human, so that they accept worse treatment.

amazing that our own small creations connect us directly to the moment of our universe erupting out of nothing and the unfathomable power of existence itself and yet we look at our drawings or stories and are like 'this is bad.' bud it is not bad it is the leading edge of a billion years of beauty

As always #QueerWritersChat is fantastic, love this chat and all new friends we make each week. My newsletter just dropped today so take a look if ya feel like it 🥰

#QueerWritersChat In DEVOURER Bo can usually find comfort in Chia-Hao and to some degree in Basadre, and in the other WIP Silvio is actually surrounded by people who are willing to offer support but he walls himself off from them

#QueerWritersChat For most of them, familiarity! In DEVOURER, Bo is stranded in a land foreign to him and meeting Chia-Hao there is instantly comforting. On the flipside, in my WIP, Silvio's stubbornness in staying within comforting familiarity is a bit of a hindrance 😅

Hey all! I'm Robb, transmasc Peruvian creature, currently working on a few short stories and novellas adjacent to the horror genre. Usually more on the pulpy side, because I think we deserve to have turn-brain-off punchy fun with well-rounded non-stereotyped characters too 🤷‍♂️

Happy FridayReads! My awesome publisher, Rapture Publishing, let me take some copies of Maelstrom off their hands (signed by me and the cover artist, Chris Panatier). If you still haven't gotten yours, hit me up and I'll send it right out!

I should........ try to do an audiobook again...... mayhaps...... this one's short it won't be that hard right?

I had a dream that I wrote a horror novel but, due to a printing error, every page was my author photo. And it still got great reviews. "Absolutely terrifying!" "Nightmares for weeks!" "I liked the part with the goblin!"

This, but for education, too!

GenAI boosters are always like "I used this incredible tool for a thing I have no understanding of and it works great! Okay, so it fucked up something really important, but when you don't count all the problems, it's perfect."

Fun fact: Women's sports are segregated not to protect women, but to protect *men* from losing *to* a woman. Don't believe me? Look up Jackie Mitchell. Struck out Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. Then suddenly women were unfit to play baseball.

Q4 #QueerWritersChat Reading, playing, and watching new things is always nourishing! I try to vary the complexity level to give my brain a workout and a rest intermittently. If I'm really overwhelmed then I reread, replay, or rewatch old favs, and sometimes I even find new things about them!

Q3 #HorrorWritersChat It's marketing, and by a lot 😭😭😭😭😭 I'm really bad at putting myself out there and hypercritical of myself to boot. That's why I appreciate the chance to take part in these kinds of interaction events :3

Q2 #HorrorWritersChat I have a Guy from a WIP that blurs the lines between antagonist and protagonist, because they help but their influence that "corrupts". But also, what is that corruption if not a change of perspective? It's a dash of cosmic horror in an otherwise monster-of-the-week serial.

Q1 #HorrorWritersChat Hi everyone again, I'm Robb and I write horror-adjacent fantasy and cosmic horror! I think my favorite type of antagonist are more abstract entities, like the house in ash tree lane or the Overlook hotel. (1/2)
