I do love that AI inadvertently confirms that our brains work like a muscle, too — use it or lose it. In this way relying on AI is like using a robot to lift weights, like running a marathon in a Honda Civic. You get nothing out of it.

Everyone shut up I finally got a video of Jyn doing her cartoon snoring thing

Nah. I don’t title my chapters, and I don’t pay all that much attention to chapter titles in books I read. I’d rather just let the chapter speak for itself ^^ #LGBTQWriteAThon

Some dingus tried to run a stop sign and then honk at ME for it. My driver in christ. Idk what to tell you. You were supposed to stop

I’m getting the ‘start a youtube channel’ bug again but i literally don’t have a good space to film anything. It’s not even about the visual aspect, it’s about the *noise*

#PrideBookFair Transmasc rep! 🏳️‍⚧️

Nothing quite like opening a book and immediately getting jumpscared by your deadname LMAO

WOWEE, this rocks!!!! :0 Grab a bundle full of queer creations! Games, books, zines, & more!! My queer seafaring fantasy book is in here 👀

#LGBTQWriteAThon Jonah has killed countless people prior to the events of book one. And guess what. He killed countless more people prior to book 2. There isnt even a question here, because he’s already done it, and he’ll do it again 😂

#LGBTQWriteAThon Book 1: 🏳️‍🌈 Unapologetically queer & trans cast 💖 the little moments as Stranger & Jonah’s relationship evolves 🧠 the slow unfolding of Stranger’s memories (and the moment it all hits!) Yall can read my seafaring fantasy book Blood of the Gods right now! linktr.ee/corvidarcana

One of my biggest fears is that people see my “i’ll edit your book for free” posts and think i’m a scammer. The truth is: I’m trying to build an edit portfolio before I launch paid editing services!

step 1: make an OC step 2: become that character's number one fan step 3: ??? step 4: profit

#PrideBookFair #QueerWriters I’m writing my seafaring fantasy sequel and my trans fantasy horror novel! Aaaand I’m reading an ARC of @lizzieblackwood.bsky.social ‘s sci fi romance, The Stars Will Be Our Ocean!! I’m not very far in, but y’all better not sleep on this one 👀👀👀

I gotta be honest, my goal this week is just “survive.” I want to write, but my motivation seems to have tanked compared to how motivated I’ve been over the past few weeks. If I can write 500 words this week, I’ll be happy. And if I end up writing more, great, but I’m keeping the goals low ^^

Hi #writesky, I’ll edit your book for free (not clickbait) 😎 I’m a Poynter-certified editor who’s looking to build my portfolio—and I want to edit your book!! MSWL: 👀 SFFH / Speculative Fiction 👀 QUEER BOOKS But really, anything fiction! www.corvidarcana.com/editorial

Do you have enough queer books yet? Of course not! You can never have enough! To entice you to further your collection of queer books, from June 7th to the 21st, I have a small bundle of my own for you! 5 SFFH queer books for 10 bucks! (or 27% off individually!) 🌈 itch.io/s/186406/que...

#LGBTQWriteAThon Ummm idk i made my main characters in tomodachi life and they just got married lmao Oh, writing? Barely happened this week 😂

#LGBTQWriteAThon Images today bc i don’t think I have enough space to type out both WIPs. Here’s my unhinged tropes for seafaring sequel & fantasy horror wip!!

#LGBTQWriteAThon There’s something incredibly hilarious about having Dune be one of my inspiration points for my seafaring fantasy series. Dune, a movie that notoriously takes place in a desert world. Seafaring fantasy, which. Well. Y’know. 🌊

We reached our first combined goal of $10K for the Power of Pride bundle, so now we're on our next goal of $20K! ❤️🏳️‍🌈 #PowerofPride2026 Follow us on our journey here! 👇 $60 Bundle: itch.io/b/3682/the-p... $10 PWYC: itch.io/b/3684/the-p...

Reasons why you’ll absolutely HATE Blood of the Gods, my queer seafaring fantasy novel 👀

#LGBTQWriteAThon 🌊 Seeing Iron Lung this year was the nudge I needed to get my seafaring sequel moving after a long writing block. 🗡️ Andrew Joseph White DEFINITELY inspired my fantasy horror wip. The trend leans wildly toward horror? A genre I’ve never had much interest in until now?? Lmao

We were going to post a tracker graphic for our first goal, but we've already hit $5K on the main $60 bundle! Combined with the $10 PWYC bundle, we're at over $8K. Thank you everyone! Our next combined goal is $10K - let's fill this heart up 💕🏳️‍🌈

"what if my art is ugly or bad?" what if you were someone's favorite artist. what if someone was inspired to become an artist because of you. NEVER stop posting your art!!

Had a dream last night that someone tried to “improve” my book cover using AI… deadass this was what it looked like LMAO

genuinely one of my favorite joys as an author is getting to package up and mail out a signed copy 💖 🥺 like the physical experience of signing a book, putting in all the lil goodies, wrapping it up, and shipping it off??? it's so wonderful.

Hey gang. We wish we had some kind of exciting announcement leading up to the launch of our bundle, but circumstances beyond our control make us unsure if we will launch on time at all. The story isn't new for most of you - it's unfortunately the continuing erosion of service from @itch.io 🧵
