Hey! I am working on curating a starter pack for trans and nonbinary authors -- please either comment here or DM me if you want to be added! Also, share so I can get the word out. #writingcommunity

My tiny chapbook, “The Moon, My Heart,” is finally available now! So so grateful to @tinywrenlit.bsky.social and Dana Knott for making this dream come true! www.tinywrenlit.com/product-page...

I wrote a book! A dark, lyrical noir about grief, predators, and the stories we tell to survive. A weary investigator. A haunted vampire. A city that keeps applauding the wrong monsters. Some crimes never stay buried. Some ghosts want justice. It's on Prime a.co/d/dNDu13Q #booksky #horrorsky

The grief the grief the grief. And the rage and love. We have it in us to be so much better than this.

Getting a positive review is always a feather in my cap. When the review is from an author, the feather is a bit larger. Getting one from the Pulitzer Prize winner of THE SHIPPING NEWS is like getting the whole darn flock!! www.amazon.com/Elisabets-Wi...

Walz: To Minnesotans, I say this. I feel your anger. I'm angry. They want to show, we can't give it to them. We cannot. If you protest and express your first amendment rights, please do so peacefully, as you always do. We can’t give them what they want.

Nothing knows us like fire as it races, licking the branches of our veins taking our kiss to a higher melt as dreams star above wrapping the night until wishes breathe bare to flutter in the open dark as our flame deepens seeking the moon as our blush rubs its shine until the sky fades into diamond

I have 700+ poems in my phone notes (more in journals). And of those, I’ve moved 167 into a folder titled The Good Ones. For editing and publishing. I stopped writing for years because I was intimidated by perfection. What I’ve learned since then is, Practice is play ✍🏼💗 #thoughts #saturday

It is you but you knew all along

Hold me tender within the silent spark of devoted stars where love ignites the flame of our hearts as we light each eternity with the opening soul of a lifetime dancing through the becoming kiss of our vowed breaths embracing the prayer of our union to bless the awakened heaven of redemption -J.Wool

You are what happens when magic and reality collide

I love this photo from @lawrencemoore.bsky.social and Bugsy. Glad you enjoyed 🥰

Thoroughly enjoyed 'Forest Girl' by @jumpingjulespoetry.bsky.social (and so did Bugsy 🐱) #poetry #books #cats

I’m delighted that the brilliant @thewombwellrainbow.bsky.social has published three ‘Not Advent’ #poems of mine in The Starbeck Orion. Alongside them is a recording of them all, which, since they were written in the pandemic, I’m calling ‘Christmas Triptych, 2020’ #poetrycommunity #poetsonbluesky

Beginning of the year plea: I am always on the lookout for collections of weird fiction by nonwhite authors, especially those that will be published in 2026. If you wrote one or are publishing one or just know of one, please get in touch. doomsdayer.wordpress.com/contact

Hello everybody and a very Happy New Year. the #vss365 #prompt for 1 January, 2026, is #delight Hopefully the new year will bring you much delight.

Today is a favorite work of mine about some truly great people I used to know. #poetry

I don’t want fireworks or resolutions or a calendar heavy with promises. All I carry into the new year is a quiet dream of your hands choosing mine without hesitation. Let the months be ordinary and the days unremarkable. If they end with your love, I already have everything. #vss365 #poetry #dream
