Today, guest blogger Shea Sullivan takes a minute to give a quick list of 8 ways folks can get more involved in fandom (without being a fic writer). Bookbinding! Commenting! Fanarting! Gifsetting! Meta-ing! Podficcing! Sharing! and Fanvidding! read more:

Know that libraries count things. How many people have cards, how many times a book or DVD or CD is checked out, etc. And then we take those numbers to our internal staff and say "look, people want this" to justify purchases, and then to local govts to say "look, we need to stay open".

She doesn’t have the motherfucking time but did it anyway fuck yeah. Support this, subscribe to this, support indie publishing with action. 🖤☠️

Here's a bigger look at my piece SYCLLA AND CHARYBODIS. A grimy homage to classic Greek ceramic art! #art #fantasy #myth

these are just some of my own book covers from the last couple of years (comics, obviously, so kind of a different prompt from prose or nonfiction novels, but they get the job done haha)

“What about Pride?” “You just had Pride.” “Well, what about Second Pride?” (Me as a disabled Hobbit, probably.) IT’S DISABILITY PRIDE MONTH, FOLKS! We have a flag too! Designed by Ann Magill, and updated to this version to prevent strobing issues while scrolling on devices! #DisabilityPride

THE LOCKED TOMB One of my favourite book series! an old fanart for Gideon the NInth, some recent work in progress bits- Harrow, & an illustrated grungy pulp style version. Love those old books where the paper has gone a bit yellow, the corners and covers are delightfullyworn. #art #thelockedtomb

DRACULA Whitby is lovely- just beware seagulls and undead counts. I'd rather fight Dracula than a Whitby seagull. Here's my DRACULA piece from a classic horror tales art set i did a while back. Ink, charcoal, digital colour.

Someone emailed me about this so I will post here too: I always price these Anthologies as low as is literally possible for libraries specifically, so if you can/want to/need to, please do request it from your local libraries! 🥰

ADDRESSING THE CONTROVERSY RE: PREORDERS: As I have made clear, certain features of my upcoming novel, including most of the symbolism, themes and character arcs, are ONLY AVAILABLE IN THE PREORDER PLATINUM EDITION. The standard edition lacks those features and adds the Rizzler as a main character.

And the first chapter of my new novella is life! In which we meet Rit and Trera, and are plunged right into the action. Because something is coming...

I am taking a much needed vacation but it's the middle of Common Bonds 3's crowdfunding. What if: opportunity? One RT = one vacation pic when I am back on a wifi tonight and/or later. It's gorgeous out here on Quebec's North Coast www.backerkit.com/c/projects/c...

Okay my lovelies, it's time! A novella serialization on my patreon starting June 17! The first chapter will be free, the rest for paid subscribers. We got magic, secrets, a goddess, ghosts of the past, feelings, a very angry bean, and a tired king. Oh my! Find out more in my recent update!
