My newest micro fiction (199 words) is up: stitchesmicrofiction.substack.com/p/transition Did someone say transgender time travel? (I did. Just now. Go read 😜) #microfiction #transstories #queerstories #📚 #flashfiction #Booksky #amwriting #queerbooks

Bestie (DV survivor waiting on disability) has a request for non-survival needs: linktr.ee/vickivvinters

Reading “Truth is the Arrow, Mercy is the Bow” by Steve Almond right now (excellent craft book so far!) and this question very much lodged itself into my writer brain: “How is the villain like me?” That’s such a powerful question for three-dimensionality! #amwriting #WriterSky #📚

We're mainly sharing the link to the rather more digestible blog post, but if you want to jump to the straight our AI report:

Hey y'all! I'm looking for a Black transgender sensitivity reader— preferably with visual novel experience—to read the script for my queer visual novel, AroDynamics. This is paid work that'll begin in August. If you fit the bill, please DM or reach out to me via email: [email protected]

Reminder to myself and for everyone who needs to hear it you can restart progress to your goals any time you want. It's July, the midpoint, so do a half year reset if you want! Do a reset each month! Each week/day if you need it! January doesn't need to hoard all the reset/restart energy to itself🤠

*sidles up and slides LIGHT & EARTH & MARROW (Shiraki Press, September 2026) across the table* *wags eyebrows* Preorders open, darlings! 😁 shirakipress.com

Wohoo, we have hit 20! (30+ if you include GoodReads, actually) 🥳

I need to save some money for a chair that won't exacerbate my dislocating joints and migraines while I work, so I'm now taking 🧜‍♂️MERMAID COMMISIONS!🧜‍♀️ ko-fi.com/c/40c0e2f663 I also offer wizard commissions, and thus have invented the best economy ever known to humans. and i'm very humble about it 😘

Read my newest micro fiction on stitchesmicrofiction.substack.com 👀🩸 (whaaat who increased the word limit from 100 to 150?? Definitely not me) #📚 #microfiction #flashfiction #WriterSky #BookSky #queerwriter #disabledwriter #lgbtq

I HAVE NEWS! You asked, and now it’s time for me to answer! This August, I’m teaching a crash course on creative nonfiction!! We will meet once a week over zoom and students will have access to the recorded sessions afterwards! Go here for more info:

Today, I wrote the line “he rebelled against the machine with the logic of a half-baked potato.” My work here is done 🙆🏻🧑🏻‍🩰 This is a very serious novel except for all the times it is absolutely ridiculous. That’s apparently how I write terminal illness& space fascism 😄 #amwriting #WriterSky #writing

“What about Pride?” “You just had Pride.” “Well, what about Second Pride?” (Me as a disabled Hobbit, probably.) IT’S DISABILITY PRIDE MONTH, FOLKS! We have a flag too! Designed by Ann Magill, and updated to this version to prevent strobing issues while scrolling on devices! #DisabilityPride

So, the thing about ableist language—and slurs in general—is not that it hurts people's feelings. It can do that, sure, and that's bad, but the issue with ableist language—and slurs in general—is about that language's role in a system of oppression. It's about what using that language does.

My newest micro fiction is now up on Stitches—Micro Fiction With Teeth (stitchesmicrofiction.substack.com/p/midline) 76 words of sapphic goodness. Go check it out 🏳️‍🌈 #Booksky #microfiction #flashfiction #queer #bisexual #sapphic #queerstories #📚 #lgbtq+

Happy Pride! Anyone telling you to keep it respectable and palatable is not your fucking friend. Every right you ever had was won by sex workers, trans people, and the people who fought alongside them, and every right you've lost was lost by the kind of people who posted this sign 57 years ago.

Celebrate Pride with The Sick Times! Many in-person events aren’t accessible to people with Long COVID and related diseases and disabilities, so join us from home as we will celebrate queer performance art. We’re excited to see you there! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵 Register: luma.com/ih0oq3yw?mc_...

Great to inherit, yes, but horrible to discover. Because now his mother, the grand explorer, hadn’t left him to chase Nepalese snow leopards, but to buy the same brand of toilet paper she always had, just a few blocks down the road. It was good toilet paper though. #microstory #📚 #microfiction

The problem was, there was no one left to return it to. She’d promised the mother wealth, reputation, but the fairy had forgotten to check the time. So there she stood, wealth but a drop of water, reputation only amongst corpses. “Huh.” She looked at the babe. “Pity.” #HorrorWritersChat

our gay agenda?? the most queer books you’ve ever seen together in one place & the more $$ we raise in our annual fundraiser the faster we’re able to add to our collection (givebutter.com/qqlls-pride-...)

I'm part of bundle that is the perfect intersection between pride in June and disability pride in July! Check it out 😊🧡 itch.io/b/3669/we-ex... #booksky

Just watched “How To Survive A Plague” by David France and I can’t believe I hadn’t seen it before. This should be mandatory watching for any baby queer. What a powerful documentary of our history! #actup #tag #movierecs #queercinema #gaycinema #🏳️‍🌈

Hey...uh...happy pride..maybe help a very sick transmasc creator afford getting to extremely important doctor appointments this pride month? Is that like..okay to ask for. I dont do shit like this. Ive only ever posted my art on pride. Im sorry

WHY AREN'T YOU DEAD YET? ARCs are now available on Netgalley! Do as Snoop Dog says and DROP it like it's hot: D-ownload it R-ead it O-h my god this book is great, I should... P-ost about it online 😉 www.netgalley.com/catalog/book... #booksky #dystopian #ARCs #disability

I've noticed that writing daily helps me massively with impostor syndrome and flow, but is also incredibly hard to maintain around disability. I'm currently doing it by ignoring all other life and work tasks 😅 If you're a #disabled writer, how do you balance that? #📚 #writersky #amwriting

i haven't gotten any orders this month, and money's tight. Help support a disabled nonbinary trans guy this month as I continue to job search by getting a cute little trinket! I have trans #viktorarcane merch in two designs, as well as other goodies both here and at cosmicarcanist.etsy.com !!

Come join us for an evening full of wonderful prose and poetry! I’ll be reading a new flash fiction piece as well 😊 #📚 #writersky #readersky #booksky #virtualevent #virtualevents #abodepress #disabled #queer #intersectional

My fellow cis folks, The FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to trans/gender content. Time to be an ally and tell the FCC absolutely the fuck not. It takes five minutes to do.

I broke the 10k mark of my new novel draft today 🎉 I started less than two weeks ago while working on a different, high priority project. Too bad Ricky and Levi don’t care about it priorities. This story feels different from anything I’ve written before and I can’t wait to share it. In a few years😅

Look at this awesome cover!!! 👀 A hint: Don’t worry, honey. Everything’s fine. I’m not trespassing in abandoned theatres. Those weren’t gunshots. Do you wanna hear a joke? Let me just keep telling you jokes. #📚 #booksky #dystopian #disabled #queer

To me #CrippingDystopia looks like letting the actual experts at surviving unreasonable conditions speak. Letting us be the heroes of dire circumstances instead of the cishet ablebodied white guy who’d probably panic at his first encounter with adversity. #disability #booksky #📚 #bookrecs #books

Who’s ready for a disabled trans disaster clown?? I’m very excited to be part of @ellatholmes.bsky.social ‘s newest disability anthology WHY AREN’T YOU DEAD YET? focused on disabled characters in dystopia, bc who knows better how to survive catastrophes than we do? #bookrecs #disabled #queerbooks #📚

Don’t send help—I’ve been possessed by a new novel and it will not let me go. I was finally actively working on something different again, but this story hijacked me and I’m writing like I haven’t in 7 yrs. I’m feeling very lucky, except that I miss sleep and food. And my wife 😂 #amwriting 📚

“We have a bad habit of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual. Only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist—a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain.” WHAT A QUOTE (The One Who Walk Away From Omelas by Ursula Le Guin)
