The “a-“ is an archaic intensifying prefix apparently from old English that when combined with a verb ending in -ing indicates that the action is currently ongoing. You can see the same construction in other songs like “Here we come a-wassailing” and— [Sean is dragged off by monsters]

We do NOT have 8 maids-a-milking but we do have a linguist who could probably tell us why it's 'a-milking' - Sean Wren from @taranhunt.bsky.social 's THE KYSTROM CHRONICLES! Open to US/CAN/UK & IE only. Like, follow, repost & drop a ☄️in the comments to enter! Ends 11th Jan 2026 23:59 GMT🪐📚💙

I post about three things on this account: my books, theater, and lychees

I was extremely excited to discover that my grocery store has fresh lychee again I was somewhat perturbed to discover that it must not be lychee season yet because the quality of the lychees in the bag is…variable

We asked @taranhunt.bsky.social for her best books of '25, books she'd love for Xmas & anticipated reads of '26. Read on https://geni.us/SolarisBks2025 to find out why she picked @voidcricket.bsky.social @guygavrielkay.bsky.social & more! https://geni.us/TheImmortalityThief https://geni.us/unkprin

sometimes when I'm writing an early draft of a book, I THINK I know what it's about. then I start revising and I find out what the book is REALLY about. for instance, this book is about fear. I learned this five minutes ago. I've been writing since July

Ate a duck and wood ear spring roll and for a brief, shining moment, everything was all right in the universe

Look at this big stack of (most) of the sequels that we've published in 2025! Ft @csecooney.bsky.social @taranhunt.bsky.social @karinlow.bsky.social @maryrobinettekowal.com @natania.bsky.social @pennyvixen.bsky.social @samkhorton.bsky.social & more! Which did you enjoy/are looking forward to most?

Gotta respect a Star Trek series that jumps right into the Weird Godlike Aliens. Deep Space 9 said “we’re going to get here anyway, let’s not pretend” and Sisko is having a vision quest in episode 2

I’m trying to remain objective here because I’m only like thirty minutes into the first episode but I think I’m in love with DS9 Kira

Watching DS9 for the first time while I wrap Christmas presents/do wedding planning and that was a hell of an opening scene

As #NationalIllustrationDay draws to a close, time for one last post... We know they say not to judge by its cover, but we all do. The art a book is wrapped in is often as important as the words inside to the reader, thank you to all the freelance designers who help shape our books' identity! 1/9

I got bread from the farmer’s market and I am being so strong and not biting into it immediately like a hungry rodent

Turning 34 today which means I can no longer claim to be in my early thirties (tragic) but it does mean I can start referring to myself as middle-aged when I want to horrify my peers (hilarious)

Went to karaoke last night and sang Evanescence’s Bring Me To Life, as is my custom The next performer after me was my little sister, a trained vocalist, who sang the exact same song

Connected to WiFi on my phone during a cross country flight today and only realized that this would mean my iPhone would automatically update its time zone after it was 9:30AM three times

I get summers off from my day job so I try to write about 7.5k words per day (5k min, 10k max/ideal). The first 2k are the hardest. After that I enter into a fugue state. Even now I have stopped for the day (at 8.6k words) and I know I have to stop because I have to cook but The Manuscript Calls
