Yep. On the 25th I'll be joining Nikki and Tanya for their bookclub discussion of my novel SHIGIDI. Feel free to join us (and bring a glass a wine or something else to drink!) 🍷

Text your non-D&D friend: “Want to sneak into a cult?” Then post the results.

If Nikki isn’t at Comic Con on Friday and Saturday, who will split a bottle of wine with me? 🤔

TwilightZone: The Movie kicksoff our #32sday #SpookySeason lineup. It's always fun when one of us has seen a movie and the other watches for the first time. Cups up to welcome our friend, horror connoisseur and D&D GM supreme, Shaun "The Universe" Spice Dice. Oct 7, 9PM EDT

🗣️BRING IT BACK

This is technically rated PG, but I wouldn’t watch it with your kids unless you’re ready for them to learn some new slurs. 😂

Trigger warning for spiders 😖👇🏾

Trigger warning for some pretty horrific murder. That’s all I can say without spoiling. 👇🏾

Trigger warning for self harm 👇🏾

There are times when we thug each other into reading books that we couldn't put down because we both know the other will share the enthusiasm and burning need to talk about it when they finish. Here are two such books:

What are we reading this weekend? I’m reading Weird Black Girls by Elwin Cotman, Skin Folk by Nalo Hopkinson, Moon Witch Spider King by Marlon James, and The Book of Night Women by Marlon James. #BookSky #BlackBookSky

Hey friends! And enemies too I guess? Here’s a thread of upcoming streams for A Thousand Eyes and One Podcast:

I want to go visit The Twisted Spine 😍 www.twistedspinebooks.com

This sounds really cool!

Still thinking about streaming D&D. Still trying to figure out what that would look like exactly. Do we take suggestions from the comments? Premade characters? How long should we play? Our games usually run 2-4 hours.

This is so sweet!

Praying my contacts get delivered in time so I can wear my giant green glittery eyelashes at comic con. Colored contacts would be better but I can’t do it lol. Rx colored contacts is too much for me for one day.

I’ve always wanted an oil painting of ackee, breadfruit, and otaheite apple.

Some Yoruba teaching: The fruit you see is an ackee fruit. Native to West Africa, now the national fruit of Jamaica I believe. The Yoruba call this 'Ishin' or 'Isin'. In the pre-colonial days, a beautiful person was poetically described as 'dudu bi koro ishin' (dark as an ackee fruit seed) 1/2

We’re thinking about adding an extra (but short!) book for an extra creepy edition of #WineOnAnEmptyStomach. Have you read Victorian Psycho by Virginia Feito?

I think I prefer when shows drop one episode at a time. It forces me to pace myself and then I don’t feel pressured to spend a whole day bingeing. I think I keep up with shows better that way. My watch list is ridiculously long.

Alright. I see I have a bunch of new followers. Not sure why, but welcome! I'm an engineer, writer and editor. Mostly in that order. I've written 3 books - 1 novel and 2 short story collections. Check them out! I post random shit about writing, science, scuba diving, and other assorted nonsenses.

Jim Henson would've been 89 years old today. Commemorate his life and legacy by celebrating creativity, diversity, imagination, peace, and just plain silliness. Walk with me a bit while I talk about Jim and his work--and leave your comments about what he means to you. Right this way. /1

Raise your hand if you’ve started your #SpookySzn tv and movie watching

Ooo I really liked Convergent Problems! I listened to the audio last month, I hope you enjoy! I'm reading African Ghost Short Stories: Anthology of New and Classic Tales. As well as The Mad Sisters of Esi by Tashan Mehta.

Our next #WineOnAnEmptyStomach #BookClub book will be Shigidi and the Brass Head of Obalufon by Wole Talabi, in October. Stay tuned for the exact date. We also have some spooky #32sDay streams coming!

This is the book that got me back into fantasy after Lord of the Rings turned me off (full disclosure: this is Tanya, not Nikki.)

Happy Friday! What are we reading this weekend? #BookSky #BlackBookSky I’m reading Breakable Things by Cassandra Khaw, Convergent Problems by Wole Talabi, and Skin Folk by Nalo Hopkinson.

I need a cosplay fund 😭 I only do light cosplay, I’m not ready to build real costumes yet lol. So basically I’m buying wigs and clothes 😂

#bluesky #blacksky #booksky #tbr #blackbooksky #books #booklover #booklovers #halloween #spookytote #totebag

I knew romance was somewhat popular but I don’t think I realized how popular until joined booksky

There are a lot of things that I'm not into. I simply just don't read those books. I don't care how popular they are. If it isn't my thing, I don't read it. Plain and simple. #romancelandia #BlackBookSky #BookSky

I’ll prob never finish ASOIAF so I guess that’s my answer 😭

I put on the tv while I’m reading lol. I like the noise.

Sci-fi thriller?
