Surprise! Today is unannounced cover reveal day for A SKY SO HOLLOW! The sequel and duology finisher for A Circle of Stars is coming this summer! I feel dizzy.

New parent by day, querying writer by night—basically, I live on chaos and caffeine. Sleep? Overrated. Sanity? Questionable. Hitting "send" on queries while covered in baby spit-up? Iconic.

Writing is 10% actually writing and 90% staring into the abyss, thinking about writing. Or, in my case, aggressively refreshing my inbox.

Writing a book? Hard. Querying? Pure chaos. A Case of Madness is long out (like me), and I’m deep in the author trenches—writing, editing, and surviving the query rollercoaster. Who’s with me? Send help

MIDNIGHT LIBRARY X DOCTOR WHO When a book bearing his name crashes through David’s window, he’s thrust into a battle between cosmic authors shaping reality and the leaders of Fate, who want to replace them with AI. Soon he has to ask himself: Is he human—or an ultimate weapon?

When David finds a book bearing his name, he learns cosmic authors shape reality through their stories. In search of his past, he joins one of them to stop the replacement of all authors with AI. But then David must choose: save the world or embrace his origins and destroy it.

One month after Hitler became chancellor, the Reichstag burned. A leftist confessed, but Nazis claimed a communist plot. Using this, they crushed dissent, arresting thousands and sending them to camps. The event warns how constructed lies can dismantle democracy quickly—parallels today are chilling.

There are a lot of new people here 😅, so here’s a little intro: I’m José from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. I’m an avid reader and book reviewer, with a focus on queer and diverse books. I’m also a graphic designer, Spanish is my native language, and my content is always political ❤️.

The funny I think this is…it is time to see these men and their followers as the danger they are. Germany had their village idiot once too, but he had very smart and powerful people around him, including the media. And so does Trump. Neo-Nazis aren‘t all dumb, some are smart. That‘s the danger.

Ever wondered how people could have let Nazis overtake Germany? Now you can see it right before your eyes. In the US, in Europe and many other countries. but WE ARE MORE WE NEED TO PUT OUR LITTLE FIRES ASIDE WE NEED TO UNITE WE NEED TO FIGHT WE NEED TO RAISE OUR VOICES WE NEED TO SPEAK UP

Hi
#booksky
, I’m an author and I wrote this book! If you’ve never seen me yell about it, these are some niche things you might find interesting about it. It’s upper YA, queer-norm, and about a chosen one who gets thrown across the universe and finds out being chosen isn’t so great. Say hi! 👋🏻

Can't imagine the youth will be too bummed about their high energy video app being banned when they can just log onto blue sky and read sentences written by elder millennials

Facebook is now erasing LGBTQ ppl & promoting the dehumanisation of LGBTQ ppl. Remember they own FB, Threads, Instagram & WhatsApp. Time to make it clear to advertisers they are supporting a homophobic business.

He used to be one of my favourite authors, Good Omens was my favourite book of all times, and then he turns out to be the same creep like so many others. TW: sexual abuse, violent language, sexual harrasment, rape
