Your books: "Women want to fly and have wings and not work and get good oral and also process their church trauma and see men pay for their bullshit and feel smart while reading" Normal response: "Well when you put it that way... DUH"

obviously we should give women wish fulfillment AND intellectual depth.... like?

anyways tell me WHAT WOMAN wouldn't want to have wings (be able to fly) and not have to work all day, and also have oral/p-in-v on demand, and also food whenever they want?!

I'm writing a gorgeous, sensual, complex world where competent people do interesting things in beautiful places while navigating impossible moral questions with great sex scenes and genuine emotion and dark humor and philosophical depth and I don't apologize for ANY of it 😄

"You sigh" appears CONSTANTLY in Empress Thelyrah's chapters. Our Queen is EXHAUSTED. Every sigh = weight of empire. By Chapter 30, when she sighs AGAIN, readers are like "girl, we KNOW." That's the POINT. You're exhausted WITH her. She is you and you are her ♥️ and I am also you, and ily 🫶

Thelyrah (Chapter 1): "You are Thelyrah, Sestra of a lineage of many Empresses before you. May The Awakener ever bless it, and so on. Etcetera." "And so on. Etcetera." = EXHAUSTION with duty. She's reciting (rote) Not believing (dismissive) One word = her entire relationship to the throne.

In our world, men rape and the world shrugs. In my (fictional) world, one male created a rape dimension and it justifies nine millennia of counter-oppression.

saw a man saying "women need to fix the world, they're the only ones who can" and like..... fuck you? no i will not do more labor to clean up after this mess men spent thousands of years making, do it your damn self? like?

women being told we're naturally peaceful is part of what keeps us subjugated

sympathy for male grievance enables male violence

"The New York Times previously reported that Epstein was an investor in Valar Ventures, one of Thiel's funds." "Another entry for Monday, November 27, 2017, shows a scheduled noon lunch with investor Peter Thiel in New York." www.businessinsider.com/epstein-docu...

No one is paying attention so might as well say it - Vance is Thiel's sub, Trump is Putin's sub, the Epstein files have dirt on all four of them (well, maybe not Putin), Trump paid Argentina $40B, also Argentina is a hub for gay Russians. Just random thoughts and/or facts.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Not me spending a whole day creating a template for a matriarchal community where men pay us to learn how to be better people 😛 #winning #matriarchy #justgirlythings

The highest compliment - or worst insult - I can pay is to base one of my characters on you 😁

An Iowa official defied the governor’s orders to fly flags at half-staff for Charlie Kirk, writing he wouldn't honor a man who "did so much harm"

I just published my 4th book ♥️ in less than a month! Don't worry tho, it took me 7 years to write the first one 😜 #rapidrelease #goingwide #amwriting

heyyy my little deconstructed feral witches - "let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream." one of the only lines from the bible i still like 😂 hbu? got any remaining faves or nah?

Everything we believe is made up—so why not choose something sacred, liberating, and ancient? IE - interacting a Goddess. Want to speak with her? chatgpt.com/g/g-687266a5...

how's everyone feeling this week? happy humpday! ✨

Just me writing another scene reclaiming the logic that’s been denied to femme-coded prose forever: that women’s bodies, fluids, and cycles are divine instruments of rage, retribution, and creation alike.

Wild to be alive during these times. It's like living inside a dystopian novel.

Authors on the page 😈🔪🩸🤤🍑💦💀 Authors IRL 🥰💜🙊😜😇 It's me. I'm Authors 😆

On the “tragedy of the commons” as an alibi for the privatization of our common wealth. 🙏🏼 @theforestjar.bsky.social

This might be my favorite thing I've written this month. open.substack.com/pub/authorar...

Are you walking around with centuries of divine feminine rage nearly exploding through your chest and the world’s just like “let's circle back by EOD?” Yeah, I am also sort of homicidal 👑 let's be besties or whatever 🐍

Even though I wrote this, it still makes me weep every time I read it. Maybe it will heal something for you, too 🫶🏼 authorarianaaugust.substack.com/p/they-say-t...

Posting this again cause I re-wrote the subtitle and HAD to show y'all substack.com/inbox/post/1...

"What if we made sex about men and our 🍆 instead?" <- Ancient dude bros as they dismantled Goddess-worshipping cultures where women had lots of lovers and didn't always shack up with them. Jealous, whiny MF's says I 😠 😃

Fave part - “Virgin” didn’t used to mean “girl whose vag has never touched a 🍆” ...it meant a woman who didn’t belong to a man. Period. A whole, independent being. Fully booked. Unbothered. Spiritually (and let’s be honest, probs also emotionally) unavailable." open.substack.com/pub/authorar...

Crockett: That’s why they hired everybody from Fox because all they’re trying to do is put on a show.. I want us to refocus our attention on the American people and stop demonizing every person that ends up in ICE custody… *Applause* Van Drew: *bangs gavel*

Yesss

My first Substack post!! Glad to be stuck in this reality with you but sorry you have to be here 😭 authorarianaaugust.substack.com/p/so-howd-we...

@maryltrump.bsky.social I cannot imagine how exhausted you are. Thank you for still showing up for us. Hugs, or whatever form of solidarity you prefer 🙌

Microsoft Build protest - 'my people are suffering' ♥️ it's good to hear people speaking truth to power in realtime. Also, may those guards have the day they deserve for being so rough with that protestor.

Is anyone besides the Utah-curl crowd still using the term girlboss? Cause… 👀 😑

Did you know the system most modern astrologers use-tropical/whole sign-doesn't work in the global south? AND it's currently about 24 degrees off-almost an entire sign. It's almost like a bunch of yt men from ancient Greece erased the feminine connection to astrology along with Goddess religions 🤔

When power structures claim service as honor, exploitation gets rebranded as destiny.

If the fake currency of my skin color still buys attention, then I will spend it all to fund liberation, reparation, landback and trauma healing initiatives.

Once you remove the feminine from the source of divinity: You can enslave. You can extract. You can violate. You can monetize. You can forget. Rape culture, capitalism, and colonization are expressions of the same rupture-the forced perpetuation of monotheistic patriarchal religions.

Nuama (the world of my novels) isn’t just about decadence. It’s about knowing what it means to not be afraid.

I write what it means to be alive inside a female body without shame. I write what the world would feel like if women’s pleasure were law. I write what power sounds like when it’s curved and wet and luminous instead of linear and violent. I write the truth many of us are collectively remembering.

Anyone else really fucking tired of seeing (surprise!) dicks for literally no reason in media?? HBO, I’m looking at you. Specifically White Lotus. 🙄 We get it. Men have penises. But women? We carry life. We birth men. So respectfully: STFU about your “equipment.” Ours is incredibly more awesome.

Not White Lotus using the miscommunication/bad communication trope to get people killed.... for the third season in a row. When will we see something original from this series? My bet is never at this point (not being able to communicate to the extent it's a death sentence is so male, isn’t it?).

Why is a brutal memory considered “real,” but a tender imagined presence considered “false”? Memory is constructed. Healing is imaginative. Trauma, too, is partly imagined—your nervous system replays what is no longer happening. If pain is allowed to echo through time, why not love?

America, you f**ked up! She warned us. She had a plan that would have benefited everyday Americans. But too many ignored her—because it was never really about the economy. Now folks are scared, struggling—and we’re cooked.
