Battle of the Beans update. We took second place but every bit of the chili was gone in less than an hour. I’m going to take that as a win.

I got an email today that
@evelynshine.bsky.social
and I got accepted into “The Battle of the Beans,” a local chili cook-off competition. With a name like that, it’s like we’re living in a sapphic rom-com…if not for the dystopian backdrop.

Gender affirming care is lifesaving care. These are OUR kids. We have to fight for them. I called my congress members and begged them to fight. Please do the same. I don't know if it will work, but our kids deserve to know we care. Make the call, then share!

Yesterday, we were browsing a store called Wander North GA. The store owner asked if he could help us find anything. Before my brain could check my mouth I replied, “nope, just Wandering around.” Owner: “ah, ha!” 👉👉 Me: 👈👈 I am becoming my father, I fear.

Having fun reading my book "The Librarian's Gargoyle" a queer open mic night at Ginger's Revenge in Asheville, NC.

This is why authors hire narrators. 😆 Look for the audiobook narrated by Abby Craden in spring 2025.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people? hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit. Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

Trans artists, cover designers, editors, sensitivity readers, et al: Drop a link/info below so people can commission you. Cis authors, TTRPGers, et al: Show your solidarity the way it counts: hire someone from this thread to work on your next book or character art.
