My lovely girlfriend (@sialunestra.bsky.social) commissioned this art piece in celebration of how we met. It feels very storybook to say we met as strangers at something called the Wonderlight Ball and that we clicked immediately and now here we are... but it's true! And I love it so much. 😭

One thing I'd like to work on next year is collecting more physical media outside just books. I'm just kinda over streaming and how it's been enshittified. I'm gonna go back to putting discs in a player or firing up a game off a cartridge.

i guess i still have lotr trilogy on the brain but costume armor in films keeps looking more plastic and latex-foamy. its The Odyssey which is fantasy so i don’t care about historical accuracy for design, but armor doesn’t really look convincingly stiff and solid and protective on screen anymore

New extortion scam email going round (this was received via a writer's website contact form). I've seen a number of these recently but without the money demand; the translation angle is also a new one

My life as a writer is glamorous. I've spent the past two days straight optimizing blurbs, keywords, comps, formatting, and ad strategies. This was what I was always hoping to do as a kid and now I'm living the dream. (PLEASE SEND HELP IM DYING)

Sharing OCs takes courage, I think. Like, hey here’s this lil guy I made in my head - why should anyone care when the world is already full of characters like Batman, Mario, etc? But at the same time, you do it coz at least to you, your blorbo is just as impressive (or more) than Batman et al.

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets. no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50. California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections. Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

I got an email from Nextdoor saying that one of my posts is getting lots of attention from neighbors and that feels scarier than most of the movies I've watched so far this month tbh

Still looking for places and desperately hoping my lead from the beginning of this month doesn't fall through on me. I'm honestly...not doing great this month. Trying to balance paying for a place I can't afford while trying to find a cheaper place is taking it out of me.

ARMY OF DARKNESS (1992, Sam Raimi)

Perhaps appropriate for October, I pulled back the covers to my bed to find a big centipede chilling there. Unfortunately I only have a twin bed, so I don't share, but I appreciated the jump scare. Very seasonal. (Friend was put safely outside to find his own bed.)

One of the best parts about supporting me as an author is I don't use AI, all the hallucinations in my books are 100% home grown and authentic

Here we gooooooooo.

sharing my silver sisters art to celebrate the Hades 2 release date! ITS TIME #hades2

The DM just asked us to do a wisdom save, and THREE OF THE FIVE OF US crit failed. This is about to get hilarious.

Impatiently waiting for Hades 2 to release so I have another way to escape The Horrors

I advertise my books as sapphic, but they're also books where people who abuse their power experience consequences.

You guys this was AWESOME.

Very disappointed in @bsky.app for choosing to silence artists, self moderation is the way. People can block and move on if they don't like what they see. Censorship is never the way. It's a double edged sword and it WILL be used to hurt creatives.

Gonna start reading this book because reasons.

Today's cool library donation: this! I never heard of this one before but I want to play it now.

A book from one of my favorite authors just came out, but it's not out in the US until March of next year. :( I am pretty big sad.
