11/26/2025 I have this dream that I'd be myself again, more fully than possible. I'd write, and I'd keep writing. I'd have the night again, the way I do when I'm manic, that delicious slice of silence I can do what I want with. I wouldn't be tired. I wouldn't be tired. I wouldn't be tired.…

11/25/2025 The genres have lately divided like they think they're continents rather than dialects, and the ground is shifting. I'm not in any way, shape, or form claiming to have invented the wheel. If anything, I'm just trying to figure out how to point at it. Look! There it is! We've been saying…

Context: wakes up your whole brain, makes you a super genius, you start to see connections everywhere and all the shit you found confusing makes sense, you complete your greatest work, reach your highest potential, and then die from exhaustion and starvation within a week of symptom onset

NAME MY PLAGUE!! Novae Nil Or Flashover Flu? #writingcommunity

working synopsis of my current draft baby workingly titled Red's End of the World: Brienne of Tarth Walter Mittying it up during an almost-apocalypse, but like, end it like The Florida Project...? it's gonna slap y'all #writingcommunity

#hopepit here's my dad as a youth with his fellow radicals Thanks dad. My books have hopeful endings cuz of you.

Holly they/them! I write queer spec lit. Sometimes I try and write something else and then I trip and add aliens We Expected More is what I'm pitching; cli-fi at its queerest, dystopia at its most optimistic. Give me hope: the fact that people still make art, and I don't fear that stopping

The end of the world isn't quite such a big deal, considering humanity's steep decline since "the Great Death" forty years previous. Esther's decided not to make a big deal out of it. She doesn't expect Hannah, though. Hannah complicates things. #questpit #q #a #sf #s

I am STOKED y'all!!!!

10/31/2025 For a while, I wanted to be an archeologist. It wasn't because of Indiana Jones. I actually hadn't heard of Indiana Jones until I participated in a summer shadow study: something my middle school was all about, where we went out into the workforce and followed some adult around at our…

BURY OUR BONES IN THE MIDNGIHT SOIL / BIRD BOX crossover fanfiction, if written by Becky Chambers The world ends, but people keep living. Now two women separated by time and space must figure out how to fix what's broken... or, if it's even worth fixing. #GhostPit #A #OWN #C #Q #SF #spec #ds #lgbt

10/29/2025 Almost six years ago now, I spent my first night in rehab. Two days after they seized our daughter, one day after I had to put my dog to sleep. The staff took the little framed picture I'd brought of my baby girl when I came in. They took my dog's collar. I'd argued, and the woman had…

Me, I shit you not, like 87.6 percent of the time: nah like I'm GONNA get published. I'm writing anyway; I'll just eventually make it happen me the rest of that time, and also then some: these agents that haven't responded yet are probably having a meeting about how much I suck #writingcommunity

ok but fr fr the Peekaboo song is like my anxiety auto-play

Shout out to all the women who wrote under male pseudonyms during the so-called golden age of Sci-fi.

not enough talk about the severe jump of going from the final stages of editing one book to the baby fresh new drafting of the next one kill the editor before you start if you wanna get it done this is fine🫠 #writingcommunity #writesky

10/21/2025 My dad's memorial was this past weekend. I've never handled funerals well. This one was particularly threatening to my sanity, and not just because it was my dad. I've never quite meshed with my stepfamily. Not quite because of the common child-of-divorce delusion that their parents…

Red always thought the world would end at once. A great collapse! Zombies, aliens, whatever. What she didn't count on was being one of the last 25% surviving after the flu, now expected to pick up the pieces and make something of them. #dvparty #sf #a #lgbt

YOOOO so my favorite aliens are nothing like the above Steven Universe is a great example in my book What I like to think about (like REALLY like to think about, it's so fun, ohgosh) is the natural history of that planet. THAT for me defines what lives there.

I WAS READY FOR THIS ONE Y'ALL #dvparty #a #sf #LGBT #tv #mh

I could've chosen a lot of gifs to rep We Expected More. Aliens! Friendship! Overgrown and drowned-out cities! This one punched me in the heart, though. Just--the world is over, has been over. But we got this Tamagotchi to work! That's what it's about, y'all. #dvparty #a #sf #lgbt #tv #mh

First up we have Irene Rosales Vivas, the protagonist in The Amulet of Kakata. She's a 10yo Puerto Rican who loves to game as much as she loves her little brother, but don't tell him she said that 🤭 #DVParty #MG #F #Q #LGBT #PF #OWN #OV

Mood~ We Expected More is a queer friendship centric (optimistic) dystopian novel inspired by Philadelphia's Urban Cowboys, as well as the clickbait articles that pop up when you open a new tab! #dvparty #a #sf #lgbt #tv #mh

One year ago, Lilith’s husband calmly walked off a bridge with their daughter strapped to his chest. Ever since, Lilith has craved nothing more than to follow them. So when the mysterious “Hannah” contacts her on behalf of an alien species, Lilith jumps at the chance for change. #predv #a #SF

yoooo thank you!! I tried again just now; hopefully it reads better

ALL THE WATER IN THE WORLD X BIRD BOX x Becky Chambers When the mysterious “Hannah” contacts Lilith on behalf of an alien species, Lilith jumps at the chance for change. Hannah's mission? Destroy the “core” that contains all human memory. Fail, and humanity goes dark with Earth. #predv

Add aliens, a flooded post-collapse Philadelphia, and a brothel-run kingdom of renegade sex workers to your found-family trauma recovery journey, and you've got WE EXPECTED MORE! If Becky Chambers wrote All the Water in the World / Bird Box crossover fanfiction, you’d get here. #predv

9/28/2025 My life comes segmented in many ways, despite being as linear as anyone else's. One of the main ways is this: segments in which I smoke/vape, and segments in which I run. Those who have done both know they don't overlap well. The first time I ran was in my late teens. My mom was dying…
