I wrote a bit today. I might finish this chapter by the dealine I had give myself. It'll likely need another editjng pass but I should have it done by Friday. I've got some momentum going now that I'm not worrying about final words count. #writing #books #fantasy

The Lantern And The Night Moths @yilinwriter.bsky.social and A Study In Our Selves @maxpasakorn.bsky.social 🌈🌈🌈💖💖💖

There should be a Mary Shelley Award for debut sff femme writer or a Margaret Cavendish Award for most daring femme-written work. Just saying.

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

The words I wrote today wrre not good words. They were pretty bad. I deleted them, tried again and called it quits. Tomorrow I will reread the 161 words I kept today and they'll quickly turninto 700 good words. I'm manifesting. Who knows what tomorrow will bring. Fingers crossed

When you see a video of ICE online, report it directly to us, and we will identify the agents and map the incident. The more detail you share, the faster we can identify the agents. Accountability is coming for ICE thugs, they just don't know it yet. icelist.is/incident

Chapter 11 of Dragon Tears is done. One more Chapter and almost 2 weeks to successfully achieve my goal for November. Wish me luck! #amwriting

Military family problems. We move, usually after 4 years. We're in the middle of year 3. My kids want to know when we're getting posted so they can meet new friends at a new school. We are not getting posted. They still want to go house hunting, lol

Self promo is my bane; it makes me feel like an immense tit when I post stuff about my writing (thanks to upbringing - never blow your own horn), but it is increasingly apparent that all it means is that I'm utterly invisible as a writer... So, anyway. I have books and stories out there.

If you're the parent of a disabled kid, I just want to tell you I know it's hard and I know you feel like you're failing constantly, but you're doing it and you're doing the best you can and your kid absolutely loves you for it.

by the way bro, you're not obligated to do anything here. It's your space. You don't need to be here all the time. You don't need to reply to every reply or DM. Mute, block, whatever at will. It's a great place to connect with cool new people. But protect your peace along the way however you need to

ICE is all over my state. I am on my way to help families. If you guys don’t see me for awhile that’s why. I just don’t want anyone to worry.

This novel has an interesting backstory. It involves leather coats, rugs and bus stops. In November 2019, I was on a trip in Scotland, where I met a friend and fellow writer. That's a story for another post. The only thing linked to the story is that said friend was immortalised in these pages.

Drew this sketch as a get better soon for a friend who wasn't feeling his best this morning. #art #traditionalart #pencilart

A lot of stories I have put on my Kofi. Free to read, of course. Latest is Red's Heart. Plant mecha, love and betrayal. Also solarpunkish. ko-fi.com/post/Reds-He...

Alright, now that budget 2025 has passed and no election was triggered, I sigh in relief. Friends, we write at dawn! #canpoli #writer #canada

absolutely heartbroken to announce that i was part of the crystal layoffs today 💔 if y’all spot any openings for a soft, dedicated, smiley games writer — please send them my way 💫 i was on the most perfect narrative team on an exciting, ambitious project. i will cherish it all forever. 💖

There is something inherently wrong when talented, multi-nominated and awarded WOC in sff are worried about food security.

Sleepy fox 💤

The missing man formation hurts, the empty table at the mess diners are emptier than they used to be, but the people we are missing are with us, in spirit. You can actually feel them there. When the bagpipes stop, the cries of the babies, in the cold, heavy silence of remembrance, /1

Me: I'm going to write today! Opens the document, reads back, and deletes four paragraphs. Well, that took an unexpected turn. I guess I'll be deleting what was causing the writer's block and go again today! The joys of writing.

We had snow and ice yesterday

My kid's first song, released less than 5 months ago, has 35k views, and no, it's not all just me, lol For anyone curious: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXbX...

18 to 28 cm of snow tomorrow. Storm Chip Forecast calls for 4 bags of chips and 10 storm drinks. We like to make blizzard forecasts fun!

Our freedom was won by brave women and men who answered the call — including the heroic First Nations, Inuit, and Métis members of the Canadian Armed Forces. On Indigenous Veterans Day, we honour the sacrifice of those who have served, those who serve today, and their families.

Very good. Verrrrry nice. You've finally come up with a name for your character that fits. Your next task... give them a last name.

Anyway, next week, I hope to do a lot of writing. Might jump from Scattered to Dragon Tears. We'll see. I want to finish one of the rewrites soon.

Question: Why do people have to "purchase" healthcare? Where's the care in that? Anyway, I had a procedure last week and it cost me 0$ and it cost my husband 5$ for parking. Put the care back in health and make it free for everyone.

I wrote a bit today. I waa lost as how to proceed with a section of the plot so I closed my eyes, as did my MC and let instinct guide me and her. Kalixa's instincts are pretty good. I think she may find her way back to the hunter and bring him to thr Slayer Sword. More writibg soon!

Wolf's Path is a good primer on what I write and like. :) www.atthisarts.com/product/wolf... #booksky #sff

I took this picture of Da Red Gobbo's Tin man GW sent me to show how he looked after drybrushing, and zoomed out it looks like he has horrible, evil, squinty eyes. 😂 Gonna put some Reikland Fleshshade on to warm up the colour and try and ignore the eyes. #Ad #AdWIP #BloodBowl #WarhammerCommunity

It feels like I have air in my throat and a huge ball stuck in there. The day after the procedure is not pleasant. Well, time to ignore it and write. Have a good day, friends.

All of the Warhammer stories I've written! When I wandered into my local Games Workshop store as a kid more than 20 years ago I'd never have believed I'd get the chance to do this! It's so fun & there's just as much wonder in the great, grimdark world of Warhammer as when I first encountered it 🖤

So the procedure went well enough. Found something, not sure what they'll do about it since we've tried all the types of medication that could control the symptoms. Waiting for a follow-up appointment. Meds are wearing off, so ugh. More tests next month, for now, another new diagnosis.

Looks like I have a spare 15% off code for Warhammer+ merch I'm not going to use before it expires end of the month if anyone wants it.

I'm too nervous to write, so I decided to go back and edit Chapter 4. I like editing, it feels like I'm doing something right. Anyway, Keep Calm and Carney On

If the conservatives make usvote again, let's make sure they get left out of the equasion. We don't need Temu Trump here. NDP, BQ, Canadians are counting on you to support their choice abd their choice is PMCarney. Keep calm and Carney On.

Budget 2025 will make generational investments to build our economy, protect our communities, and empower Canadians.

Tell me you studied psych and sociology in University without telling me you studied both psychology and sociology in University. My mock pitch for my WIP fantasy novel: /1

People keep arguing about which is the best franchise: Star Trek or Star Wars, but you know what is often forgotten? That's right: Star Gate! I liked the episode where they 3D printed a spine for Worf in TNG because it gave me hope, and I'm glad we're making advancements, but Star Gate takes it.

I love that there's a place in Canada called Happy Valley Goose Bay. I would not enjoy a posting there in the winter, but it pleases me that it exists.

I submitted a story to a venue and found out they received 151 subs and will accept 15. My best to date acceptance (that I know how many stories were submitted is: 85, and they accepted 10, including mine. Getting my hopes down. If it does happen, I'll be ecstatic; if not, oh well.

What starts with a w, ends with a t, and has a little laugh in the middle. You're welcome. I'll see myself out

Fun Fact: There is a town in Quebec called Saint-Louis-du-Ha!Ha! It holds the world record for the city name with the most exclamation points.

I've been writing less than I would like but I'm still chipping away at this novel. I wish I was faster. Oh well. I might try a flash fiction to distract myself from my slow progression. Next week, I should be more motivated.
