Houston, we have a release date. Raiders 4 is coming January 26, 2027. Preorder direct at jacquelynbenson.com/mountain-of-... Select retailer ebook preorders also available now. Everything else coming in a few months.

Over 400 of you lovely people have clicked to follow my upcoming Kickstarter that I have revealed basically nothing about and this feels like a hug. www.kickstarter.com/projects/jbe...

Watched ‘The Librarians’ on BBC #iPlayer last night and my God but there are some deep wells of ignorance, bigotry and hatred in America. Kudos to the brave librarians who stood their ground, even at the cost of their jobs and threats of violence. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

I've been keeping a secret... new special editions are coming for the Raiders of the Arcana series inspired by a very different period of history than my posh 1898 Editions. Can you guess when? Follow the campaign at tinyurl.com/yhuzfu55 to get all the updates as we reveal what we're up to!

I'll be there with bells on.

These two. ❤️🔥🐍 Amiright? The lovely and talented @harleelizart on Insta did this gorgeous hand-lettering from one of Adam's green light moments from Arrow of Fortune, and it makes me feel squishy.

"My 2-year-old has been having a severe medical issue. She has a swollen gum and an infected tooth, and has a fever anytime she isn’t taking ibuprofen for this infection. The nurse at a hospital said this is not a dental clinic. They couldn’t help her."

I love how in kpop you queue up a song by someone with a name like BIG Naughty and it's the most tender adorable lil love ballad on the planet.

Action alert! Testify against SB 434, NH's latest book banning bill. Public hearing April 8 at 11:30AM with the House Education Policy & Admin Committee. Come in person or oppose the bill online at gc.nh.gov/house/commit... Let's make sure our reps know NH will stand up for the freedom to read.

It's time to tell our elected officials to oppose SB 434, a NH bill that would make it easier to ban books from school libraries and classrooms. Hit up this form from @everylibrary.bsky.social to email your local representatives: action.everylibrary.org/oppose_sb434...

My new cozy fantasy series -- with archaeologists, tombs & magical languages -- launches in April with Curse of Bronze, a dainty novella packed with vintage paranormal whimsy. Pre-order now! books2read.com/cursebronze

Hero.

Not just a birth certificate. A birth certificate and legal name change documentation for anyone who's changed their name - like most US married women have. Of course they have to blatantly lie about it.

I just backed @oliviaatwater.com & @nicholasatwater.com ‘s A Matter of Execution: Signed Collector's Edition Hardcover on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/atw... And you can, too!

Another one bites the dust... 🥳

This feels very London Charismatics coded.

"more respectful" is not the same thing as "we will no longer steal your voice and name without your consent"

I don't think grammarly should just get to do "sorry deleting now" after ventriloquizing living and dead people without their consent to make money

Your regular friendly reminder that algorithms hide things. And what will I have coming up soon? How about updates on Raiders of the Arcane Book 4, character art reveals, and a slightly bonkers secret summer project? news: tinyurl.com/4cvvubka Patreon: tinyurl.com/4cvvubka

🍦 The Quiet Light is here! 🍦 She's a powerful mage awake again after 500 years. He's a dragon: her ancient enemy… who has just introduced her to ice cream, and she's enchanted—with ice cream, and with him. And she's not going to let anyone take either of them from her. 💖 books2read.com/quietlight

This is the kind of quest I can sympathize with.

AI makes shit up all the time. It takes out web services with broken code. It has encouraged people to kill themselves and facilitated the production of child sex abuse imagery. It is unreliable and lacks any moral code. And now we're using it to kill people. futurism.com/artificial-i...

We should take them apart stone by stone.

Oops, they did it again... NH GOP just gotta be book banning. Let's let them know (again) that the Granite State stands up for the freedom to read. action.everylibrary.org/oppose_sb434...

The GOP wants to ban books with trans representation from every library in America. Here's an easy way to tell them to go straight to hell with that. action.everylibrary.org/hr_7661?utm_...

Attention #bookcon attendees: I'll be live and in person at BookCon's Indie Alley April 18 and 19. I'll have limited quantities of my books on hand, including my first two 1898 Editions. If you want to make sure you get what you're looking for, use the preorder store! beventi.co/orderform/sf...

No votes on ANYTHING untill we vote on the War Powers Resolution.

Why is this not on front pages? And what the hell right does the US government think it has to do this? www.dowjones.com/business-int....
