Back on my short story BS and I'm wondering what's the best thing to do with ones that have been rejected. Do I reedit them and try with new places or just move onto a new story and come back to them in the future? What do we think bsky #authors?

Cosmic Dark is printed, along with Cthulhu Dark, Stealing Cthulhu and all the printed things from the Kickstarter! It's all looking beautiful and I miiiiight have upgraded the printing. www.kickstarter.com/projects/gra...

Synopsis 0 - Olly 1 Time to get my query letter tidied up and go through the draft again for spelling and grammar! Feeling closer and closer!

Playing KCD themed Jackbox with the Hansry crowd and it is excellent

Synopsis is currently at 800 words, did research into each of the agents I'm planning to query (ngl does feel a bit creepy but helpful nethertheless), and I took myself on a little research trip to Waterstones to look for comparable books. Feeling good about querying today!

For the first time ever we got a comment on the #podcast that was bad enough for YouTube to auto-remove it. What was that comment to? Well, this lovely clip of us talking about how some people don't get the privilege of "turning their brain off" in #fandom. youtube.com/shorts/_01d_jO4yDY

My award shortlisted book is available for Chritsmas purchases! And I'm available to talk about it (and the strange ways fandom has shaped our world) at your events with my live show! #author #book #fandom #christmas

I'm soooo excited to be the costume and props designer on this queer romance/sci-fi short film! Follow the link to support us when the crowdfunder launches on Monday ❤️

I just wrote the tag/pitch line of my novel to put in the queries and OH MY BLINKING GOSH IT MADE MY BRAIN GO BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

The crime of genocide didn't exist until after WW2. It was something we decided was real, needed to be identified and punished. Even if we've been spectacularly bad at putting it in practise, we conceptualised it. I think it's about time for a CEO crime of murder-by-Economy.

Sharing this again as today's news programmes seem yet again full of those pushing the obscene suggestion of us leaving the #ECHR

It was so much fun to take part in this and I would like to thank my knowledge of all things David Tennant from bringing me in second!

The end of season three is probably the best time to finally confront an all important question: what actually is #fandom? How do we define this strange thing? Taking on the big 'ol question of whether we can actually get away from some of the problematic ideas we have youtube.com/shorts/2AYQN...

“Kids”? Someone of us are 38 and have never seen a party we voted for win in an election. 💚💚💚💚

Draft whatever this is...IS COMPLETE! Omg! Now I can have a few days off before back to queries. Holy shit.

Hey so this IS actual nazi shit. Fuck any company that uses this.

The end of season 3 is probably the best time to finally ask: what is #fandom? We chat about the history of the word and idea, get an explanation of cultural evolutionary #anthropology, and end with whether we can ever get away from some of the problematic ideas we have. youtube.com/shorts/vs0kP...

Turn. The. Volume. Up.

Starting to write query letters and I hate it. I. Hate. It.

Inspired by our previous episode on genres, we decide to chat today about a thing that happens, particularly in fan spaces: Flanderization! The process of a character being distilled to the point of removing many deeper aspects of their character. #podcast #fandom #silly youtube.com/shorts/UcA7x...

Reform UK want a direct transfer of wealth from the poorest in society to the richest. Wage cuts for the poorest workers, tax cuts for the super rich. They really are like comic book villains at this point. May the @greenparty.org.uk be our heroes! bylinetimes.com/2025/11/03/n...

#ShareGoodNews - putting hope back into politics

The end of season 3 is probably the best time to finally confront an all important question: what is #fandom? We chat about the history of the word & idea, & end with a big 'ol question of whether we can actually ever get away from some of the problematic ideas we have youtube.com/shorts/CV9Vg...

The Green Party in England & Wales now has more members than the Conservative party (previously the most successful electoral force in British politics). Big things are happening!! join.greenparty.org.uk

The more I'm looking at the news with the Greens, it feels like we're going to see a battle between them and Reform at the next election. It's not the first time a new party has swung in from the left in the UK, and it's also not the first time the established parties have lost their position.

I have drawn art for multiple TTRPGs. I do it for a love of the game, because I feel like these games deserve illustration and I know how important it is for getting these games sold. It also does not pay nearly well enough, and I can't blame my clients for it. THIS INDUSTRY DOES NOT PAY WELL.

Been working my poor little fingers to the bone today... Still got some more to do with this bastard piece of cosplay BUT it is finally looking like something! #cosplay #starwars

Over the last few years I've been watching Silent Witness from the very beginning, starting in the 90s, & it's been an education in how the world's changed for SURE. I decided that I would like to watch another crime classic, Prime Suspect, today & omg it's staggering how the men in this show behave

Hey all new game devs! 👋 Since there seems to be a whole new wave of people coming here I thought I'd do a little write up of how to get the best out of BlueSky as a game dev: chequered.ink/how-to-use-b... #gamedev #indiedev

Currently listening the lovely human & actor Michael Pitthan read Poe stories live on twitch on his new "bedtime stories" series. There is something about someone reading live that is so wonderful, especially when 200 odd people are watching from all around the world. Wholesome use of the Internet.

On the same day that a poll shows the Green Party in front of the Labour Party for the first time - it's time to take on Reform too. My chat with @middleeasteye-rss.bsky.social 👇🏼 youtu.be/XRNB5MD7Ijw?...

When the president of the Society of American Travel Writers tells you he loves your writing style and you suddenly feel like you have the BIGGEST WRITING D*CK THE WORLD. What a lovely day.

Currently reading "The Making of Oliver Cromwell" by Ronald Hutton and I have learnt an awful lot about the river Ooze and its surrounds. Love a history book that goes into depth about not just the social and political world of a person but the natural one as well. Its very important.

Anyone still on X, get off now. Look at what you’re funding.

Every time the KCD community does something

I look forward to using my government-allotted “freedom time” to take part in my chosen government-approved protest. 😬

Distracted from my editing by a forty-something year old man playing Tropico 6 on twitch. What has my life become?

Well. This is a doozy of a thread.

It's a hot ribenna and reading about renaissance bohemian in bed kind of day while I recover from the burnout I caused myself.

I feel like @zackpolanski.bsky.social has given me hope no politician has in years. As an artist, organiser and educator it can be so hard to see the work you're doing come to anything but listening to him has really made me cherish the work I do as part of the movement even if I can't always see it

Why is cutting words out always so hard? I want to cut 600-800 words but every time I get ride of some I find more to add elsewhere!
