got to the end of Act One of Clair Obscur 🥲

I could not be more excited to reveal the cover for my very soon-to-be release short fiction collection. If you like SFF, this one’s for you.

Unboxing my new Fantasy novel the only way I know how: WITH A SWORD.

It's DAY 13 of #FictionFest and today we have the following livestreams: - 12:00pm EDT panel on Cozy Fiction - 7:00pm EDT literary fiction author readings www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... Check out the full schedule & find links to all our replays at FictionFest.ca/events! #BookSky ⏰📚

My Cousin Vinny: Ace Attorney Had to finally release this from my head

anyway I have a book out in like 19 days, maybe you should preorder it or request it at your library or something bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

especially if you bought any of my books, I'm a big fan of validation

This is why I identify as queer, not just bisexual! Queer because fuck your taxonomy! Queer because I refuse to go into one of two boxes! Queer because I have an adversarial fucking charge! Print it on my tombstone! ADVERSARIAL FUCKING CHARGE!

Fix your hearts or die. You know how many of us joke that Pride month should be followed by Wrath? This year I feel a deep, burning fury towards all who use transgender lives as political propaganda. We are human beings. You cannot erase us. Happy Pride. Trans liberation at any cost. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Something BIG is happening, and I’m involved! Check out the virtual #BookFair featuring #Canadian authors from all across the country at FictionFest.ca! 🍁🦫📚

subs will be open tomorrow, July 1st, at 7pm central time ! subs usually fill up very quickly, often within the hour send us something weird or cool or beautiful, or all three <3 thank u

Welcome to Wrath Month y'all. Go forth and wreak havoc on the world trying to take us out by any means they can get away with.

Bill Nye, bless, should not have had to be such a load-bearing pillar of millennials baseline science education, but it’s even scarier to think that we haven’t replaced Bill Nye the Science Guy with anything new, because the far right would rather that your kids not understand how vaccines work.

I deserve a medal every time I stay at the gym after discovering I've forgotten my headphones

this is one of the best things I have ever written, it’s all downhill from here #LondonAndTheKingOfBones #KidLit #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

is #WerewolfWednesday a thing? I’m spending the morning flipping through my short stories, thinking about making some collections one day, and still really like this interaction from “Time of the Month.” it’s available as Victory Lap bonus content at kamielke.itch.io/victory-lap #BookSky

pepper jackson never even had a testosterone puberty and yet that still wasn't enough to let her play w her friends. i didn't expect them to rule any differently but the ruling makes it explicit that the "biological advantage" stuff is a smokescreen for dehumanization and sexual harassment

While everyone's "all the love to trans folks" posts are nice and it is good to see support We have been getting them for a decade now. If you want to support trans folks, hire us. Support GFMs and asks for mutual aid. Put yourself between trans folks in public if you see harassment.

in which another member of the party is added now that I’ve completed my mission of Get paid to do comedy, my brain’s gotta switch gears into Publish my next middle grade check back here for news about the #LondonAndTheKingOfBones kickstarter sooooon #WIPSnips #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #KidLit

do you guys know that memorizing ten minutes of stand-up material is like a lot of work actually might be easier if I had my set finalized before yesterday evening but hey, I'm expressing solidarity for exam season by not changing as a person since I was 14

Goblin Girl is now requestable on BiblioBoard! library.biblioboard.com/content/230c...

🗡 a goblin girl with a forbidden crush 💎 a human princess with a secret 🐸 a cursed knight 🌳 a wooden boy They must stop a vengeful sorceress from completing an ancient weapon before the world is reduced to rubble Goblin Girl is now a Nebula Award finalist books2read.com/u/31pp16 #BookSky #SFWA

Link Between Rooms [ #LegendofZelda #Backrooms ]

I've been waiting for the reappraisal of Steve Buscemi's Final Fantasy

for writing: in Victory Lap it's Kiki, based on the heartfelt reviews Alexis and I get about her journey in Hit Points I would guess Nathan because I love making an awful guy and redeeming him just a little #QueerWriters #PrideBookFair 1/

finally caved and added the Goblin Girl ebook to Amazon even though it is evil and bad because it is tough out here lol itch is still the coolest and best way to support me (and remains the only place to get Victory Lap) a.co/d/0gVRBRyX #BookSky #WritingCommunity #QueerLit #KidLit

god editing is a lot of work but without it I never would have realized I should add a whole new chapter where my main character gets trapped in a not-Scientology centre to find an ancient warlock and is rescued by his gun-wielding history teacher

lrt: I came to Dungeon Meshi for the guy autistic about monsters, but I don't know if I've ever identified with any character more than the guy autistic about studying people

Doodling one of my faves from Dungeon Meshi in hopes we get a release date soon…

all of the books by my friends are queer and underrated and you should read everything by them @vriccithode.bsky.social if you like magic and dragons @bonesmckay.bsky.social and @ursulagray.bsky.social if you like eldritch gods or dragons (naked) @nathanburgoine.bsky.social for gay romance

thinking about this incredible poem again

I've definitely defaulted to writing bis since coming out, which is interesting because I don't default to enby or poly in the same way? I seem to default to gay men when reading though, with TJ Klune, Patrick Ness, and 'Nathan Burgoine being the first authors to come to mind #PrideBookFair

this has been the most surreal week of my life and I'm so grateful to everyone who voted for Goblin Girl (please don't hesitate to let me know who you are/if you liked my book/maybe leave me a nice review 👀) and congratulations to @michelleknudsen.bsky.social!!!

I see people are reposting their Majora's Mask arts as well so I'm following with this older but still cool one #zelda #majorasmask #art #greenfellart

Don't mind me, I just found a good excuse to repost my Majora's Mask saga with the new 10 photos feature.

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital

If you’re new here and wondering if I have another story you can read, I am VERY proud of this one. reactormag.com/this-is-not-...
