Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant." SAY. THAT. SHIT!

It's November already! But that means there are more new books coming your way 😁 The indie SF/F/H new release list is live on my blog (you can check out the full list of titles there: ajcalvin.net/the-indie-au...) #booksky #bookreleases #indiebooks

I've been trying to get my hands on a cassette player for like two months now, gosh I miss these things! I somehow still have at least two of my favourite books on cassette from when I was a kid. Looking forward to listening to them that way again someday soon!

Jessica teaches a lesson to a new friend. If you liked what you read here, you can pre-order The Knowing Doll here: books2read.com/u/m0ZvYl #writesky #WIPSnips #fantasy #indieauthors #WritingCommunity

First album I ever bought with my own money was a CD of The Offspring's Splinter, first record was quite a few years later, I found a copy of Def Leppard's Hysteria unopened at a flea market.

Pre-Orders for The Knowing Doll are open! Set in a weird fantasy world with heavy political themes fueled by a burning rage at fascism and hierarchical power this story centers on community, mutual aid, and resistance. books2read.com/u/m0ZvYl #indieauthor #Booksky #WritingCommunity #fantasy

What movie do you consider perfect?

did I mention how insanely cool transfemme art is. genuine revolution in underground internet expression and I can't wait for silly PSX bnuuy show

TERRIBLE MOVIE I LIKE ANYWAY: Wild Wild West. This movie fucking rules.

Please go and vote, New Yorkers. Seriously. This isn't just about you, or the U.S. It's about the message it sends to the whole world. As a South African, I hate that choices made by the U.S. impact me but that's how it works. Your votes matter across the ocean, for years. No excuses. VOTE.

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Jessica has a message for you. #indieauthor #Booksky #WritingCommunity #fantasy

When Zohran wins and NYC doesn’t collapse please remember how hard they leaned into the greedy, racist fearmongering so you can ignore it next time too

It'll be my third Pride march this weekend but my first where I'll be completely out and presenting as a woman!

One year ago, you met my queer Portland rock band/magical girl squad, and their new trans member, Claire. Soon, it'll be time for their next adventure! "Magica Riot: Full Bloom" is the sequel to my debut. This is the cover, once again by @ambisweetiepie.bsky.social. Release date & preorders soon!

Get onboard! We've got: 🚀- A varied cast of lovable (and hateable!) characters 🚀 - Sick 90s anime inspired pixel art and visuals 🚀 - A HUGE, MAXIMALIST UI 🚀 - Thrills! Spills! Action! Adventure! 🚀 - An engaging story of trauma, reconciliation and commitment! 🚀 - Absolutely banging chip tunes.

Hey #writingcommunity and #indieauthors! What are the LESSER KNOWN works that are massive inspirations to your writing? These works don't have to be from the prose medium!

trans protagonist. music-based magic. entirely queer cast. tall hot evil sorceress. sinister tech company. useless lesbians. queer identity journey. polyamory adventures. thrilling action. modern-day Portland setting. looking forward to y'all reading this book.

(note from the future! I opened up more than I expected!) I liked this thread, mostly because it's challenging me to get out of my comfort zone a little and also explaining why the method that I use very often might be inaccessible. I often post off writing prompts as a way to discuss my book. 1/?

The opening of chapter 3 of Magica Riot absolutely made me think of this @magicariot.com

It is the stated policy of Magica Riot that Nazis deserve to be punched, so please enjoy one of my trans magical girls, Riot Blue (aka Nova) punching a sad, pathetic Nazi. Thanks to @beedokfern.bsky.social for this delightful work!

I forgot why I made this but I maintain that I am very funny.

From Carpathians - one week to go! #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingPrompts #WritingCommunity

It's #AceWeek! I'm ace...ish. I write ace-ish. #BookSky The space smuggler main character of Skylark in the Fog, Jeane Blake, is ace, and the book has been described as very ace-friendly, as it focuses on platonic relationships, deep friendships. #scifi books2read.com/skylarkinthefog 1/2

#WIPSnips "Mark my words, as a second grade Mischling, you will not be far behind in the pecking order. Indeed, you would do well to consider your own position" For the second time that day Oskar had found himself assigned to what sounded like a class of newly discovered subspecies #WritingCommunity

Tip o’ the hat to jolmy

Magica Riot will always be aggressively trans and gay as hell as long as I have breath in my lungs and that’s a promise

I'm so mad that Minecraft is getting a sequel and this isn't. What the fuck.

I just want to politely note that book sales are really not good for many authors these days because times are not good and if you don't have a massive reach/follower count/whatever, it's that much more challenging. Also if you're hard to pigeonhole. This does not mean our works are not good.

Especially if it comes with Dean's music collection!
