#LGBTQWriteAThon 10: Happy Promo Thinking about @mixeduppainter.bsky.social 's books that I've read makes me happy. An Offering of Plums, Frostbite, and Freedom in Falling are all excellent and I highly recommend all of them. I could probably use one of their books right about now.

Death Valley Blooms by S.M. Mack. pubbed by @neonhemlock.bsky.social it’s a novella, but packs so much of an emotional punch, it had me sitting at my computer, staring into middle space for a good hour

Recently, I had the immense pleasure to read an early copy of CALL AND RESPONSE by Christopher Caldwell, the newest collection from Neon Hemlock, and I absolutely adored it!! Ten stories in matched pairs, structural brilliance for a thrilling, magical, and deeply humane, this is a MUST READ!!

Apparently, Sir Cameron Needs to Die Greer Stothers Hot twink flees a prophecy where he needs to die to save the kingdom... Straight to the evil wizard. In which many dangerous and homosexual things happen. If it's queer, give it here! ™️ @titanbooks.bsky.social

Linktober (shadow) day 10: depths

#LGBTQWriteAThon It’s my group of queer friends, queer writer comrades, and the stationery community. I got to see friends at the writers conference a couple of weeks ago and it helped me feel better. I had dinner with a friend last night and it was great. And y’all on here are great. Thank you!

This ep. I talk about how targeted violence is weaponized as emblematic of the oppositional political project and our obsession with viewing violence as the result of ideology and not downstream of personal experiences, material conditions, access to guns, self-annihilation, and social alienation.

Hope is like a pilot light. It burns even when everything around you seems cold. And it’s enough to start something bigger when the right time comes.

#LGBTQWriteAThon I don’t have a moodboard so I guess I’ll do it this way: Cyril, from True Hate’s First Kiss: Pansexual Ink of Solace: Demisexual, effectively. It has little interest in sex, but I can see it getting interested once it admits it actually does care for a person.
