EXCUSE ME, @microsoft.com? WTF IS THIS? Unless God himself is speaking, the pronoun "he" doesn't need to be capitalized. And correcting to no space after closing quotation marks? Diabolical! Why is everything being so thoroughly enshittified? STOP BREAKING USEFUL FEATURES. #writing

An excerpt from Mise En Abime, by @lauren.taylor.bak for THE DISCONNECTED. Kickstarter link in bio. Lauren's story left me shocked with its raw depiction of sex work in an eternally connected world. This story is incredibly powerful in its depiction of the edge of exploitation and consent.

This mm romance antho (which includes my monk+jinn story "Three Wishes and a Miracle") released at the beginning of the year, but is now available in paperback.

by Fall Out Boy

there is already a category of pornography centered on narrative, it's called erotica lol and you don't have to destroy the clean drinking water supply to read it

We craft our erotica meticulously, with great care and consideration. Or you can go use this theft machine that's stolen from writers to spew out crap. In which case I think you're a fucking tasteless moron.

Me: I’m sapiosexual. You: Ah, attracted to smart people. Me: (putting a tap in a maple tree in full bondage gear) What?

I write erotica as my literal job and this is somehow 10x hotter than anything I've written all week 🥵

Blind sculptor Cass and her cursed muse Eury forge a dangerous bond of creation. When passion ignites between them, loving might become their riskiest choice yet. Fantasy lesbian romance by Lauren Taylor Bak now available from JMS Books! www.amazon.com/dp/B0...

Super excited to be part of this technodystopic horror anthology with @henryneilsen.bsky.social! Save the pre-launch for updates about the upcoming Kickstarter.

Additionally, there is a companion anthology THE DISCONNECTED featuring stories from: @laurentaylorbak.bsky.social Laura J Campbell @liviajelliot.com @thomasgloyn.bsky.social H M Weir

Happy release day! I enjoyed this novelette!

Today is my book birthday!! Contemporary F/F dark/monster romance novelette with JMS Books, Blood from Stone. www.jms-books.com/lauren-taylo... #SpoonieAuthChat

There's coincidentally also a contemporary Medusa one that I just heard about today, "Blood from a Stone" by @laurentaylorbak.bsky.social.

Happy Book Birthday to Blood from Stone (F/F novelette) My first novelette Blood from Stone is officially out today! I'm so thrilled to share this story, which is a Sapphic dark romance with a supernatural twist. Make sure to pick up your copy from JMS Books this week while it's on sale for 25%…

Step away to do literally anything but write, but especially make time to *read*. Half of my best ideas arrived because I was mentally rewriting a scene I was reading; "I could've done this better" or "Oh that's brilliant, I wish I'd written that, but I'd do X instead of Y." Also, touch grass!

cannot emphasize enough that thinking that the pro-censorship side has already won is how the pro-censorship side wins

My forthcoming novelette from JMS Books has a cover and a preorder link! Get it for 25% off before its release date, October 11: it’s less than $2! www.jms-books.com/lauren-taylo...

Sex scenes. Hands down. That's where the fun is. That's where the sauce is

I've got a novellette forthcoming with JMS Books! Cover reveal sometime next week, probably.

"This feels like a human wrote it." I don't care if that means it's weird/bad/ugly, as long as no one thinks I use AI! As a chronic em-dasher and notoriously blunt (hello audhd!) writer, I worry about coming across as robotic. #SpoonieAuthChat

Every time "people/Gen Z think there are too many sex scenes in fiction" discourse comes up, I just want everyone to know that I add another sex scene to whatever I'm working on, and every time someone says "I just think that sex scenes need a PURPOSE" I make the scenes even longer. 🥰

There is no future wherein we limit artistic freedom around sex, while not also harming LGBTQ+ people, & increasing the threat of sexual abuse to children via loss of sexual education. This is an integral part of fascisms rise. Accept that and get on board, or STFU. Otherwise you're aiding fascists

#SFFChat Q1: As Arthur C Clark put it: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." The line is blurry, but the short answer for me is usually 1) whether it breaks the laws of physics, or 2) how the characters in-world view it, especially based on their level of tech.

I feel like making Bsky leadership and moderation suffer by being obnoxious is gonna do more than leaving them alone I honestly can't recall a single time when blackouts on social media have had an effect on policy changes and I've been online since the early 2000s

Please do not do this. All #blueskyblackout2025 is gonna do is let the Bluesky mods think they've won. You want to know how to stand up for artists and creators? BE LOUD!!! Continue calling out Bluesky's action and submit feedbacks to them over their censorship guidelines.

We used to own things. DVDs, CDs, MP3s. Now we only "license content," and it can be taken away at the whims of mega corporations after we've paid for it. Even appliances have mandatory subscriptions now. It's hell now, and it will only get worse.

I hate telling this story, but when tear gas is in the news... telling always feels importantm Tear gas is an abortifacient. When I was tear gassed, we were trying for a baby. The following day, I bled in a way I never have before. Like no period of my life before or since. Horror movie stuff.

genuinely, i OFTEN find myself going "well at least i don't have as many commitments as brennan lee mulligan does" god bless that man #comic

Just posting this up for NO REASON AT ALL. Nothing relevant hitting us that would provoke this, nosirree.

Smash two book titles together: Gorillas in the Mists of Avalon

Everyone's sexual awakening

Space opera! Space opera! Space opera! The hardest thing about my sci-fi is the phaser in your pocket when you're happy to see me. 😘 There's something so cozy about a bunch of idiots causing drama on a flying conference center. My current WIP is an homage to classic Trek, but sexy. #SpoonieAuthChat

Cancel Disney+ and get Dropout.tv instead. It's cheaper, funnier, supports free speech. Also not a bad time to support The Try Guys (Second Try), with Ned trying to make an ill-advised comeback.
