Wake up juice

I just want to write, but the day job pays the bills.

Happy Friday!

I started writing because I was sick of how trans characters were portrayed in crime fiction. I wanted badass trans characters who pushed back against the bigoted stereotypes. So I started writing them. And readers, both trans and cis, loved them. dharmakelleher.com #queermysteries

Raising my cup to my fellow misfits. You know who you are. 🥰

Let’s rock this Friday! #FridayVibes

I’ve been working on the cover of my debut sapphic witchy paranormal thriller. Still tweaking it in Photoshop. #coverdesign #bookcover #amwriting #writingcommunity

Getting some much needed rain! ☔️

Blessed Beltane to my northern hemisphere witches! And Happy Samhain to my southern siblings.

Love yourself today. #bekind

Starting the day with a latte.

I just cried while editing an emotional scene in my WIP.

Happy Imbolc to my fellow pagans! To my non-pagan friends, Imbolc represents the promise of the coming spring and new beginnings, when the snowdrops and crocuses burst through the frozen ground. It represents hope. Cling to the promise of spring. Embrace hope! #Resist

Listen to the voices of people who are marginalized in ways you are not, so that you can speak up for them in places where they are not welcomed. #Resist

I remember those days. This is spot on. Keep fighting, keep dancing. #resist

Don’t let their hate poison your love. It’s okay to get angry at some of the shot they pull. But don’t let it turn you bitter. Shine brighter. #resist

It’s easy to get caught into a despair spiral. Especially if you have cPTSD like I do. But gratitude can reverse it into a spiral of hope. It changes the direction of our thinking from negative to positive.

Some good news! News stories to give you hope. youtu.be/pamrBcd4poc?...

You are not alone. The forces of love & light are greater than the forces of darkness. Seek out & spend time with like-minded people. In person, if possible. My local Unitarian Universalist congregation is where I found community. Find & spend time with people who love and support you. #resist

This video gives me hope that those of us who are nice will ultimately triumph. #resist #empathy youtu.be/mScpHTIi-kM?...

I see you doomscrolling, jonesing for positive news in a sea of negativity. 💩 But it's soul-sucking & makes you more miserable. 😩 Instead, curl up with a good book where a 🏳️‍🌈 heroine triumphs against the forces of cruelty & bigotry. Did I mention it's FREE? 🙌 bookhip.com/BFMGGRA #booksky

This country really could be great if we chose love over hate, empathy over apathy, generosity over greed, diversity over bigotry, integrity over corruption, & compassion over cruelty. As the administration chooses the worst choices, it is up to each of us to make the better choice. #resist

Show up means speaking up when you hear transphobic comments. It means supporting trans-led organizations. It means voting, protesting, and using whatever privilege and platform you have to push back against hate. #TransRightsAreHumanRights #NoRoom4Hate

I wrote Blood & Fire as a prequel novel to the Jinx Ballou Bounty Hunter series. I wanted readers to see why Jinx quit her job as a Phx cop to be a professional bounty hunter. And how she first meets Conor Doyle, who she marries later in the series. #booksky #lgbtfiction #thrillers #resist 1/

You are worth loving. #Resist

Be the light that drives out the darkness. #resist #latteart #kindness #empathy

Normalize empathy.

For the opening scene of Chaser (Jinx Ballou Bounty Hunter book 1), I drew on my own experience as a survivor of domestic violence. Jinx is pounding on the door of Freddie Colton, a dirtbag she's been hired to drag back to jail. But his abused girlfriend, Vanessa, answers instead. 1/

The inspiration for my Shea Stevens Outlaw Biker series was a combination of my love for Sons of Anarchy and my own experiences as a female biker and member of a women's motorcycle group. I wanted something gritty & compelling, but also #feminist & #queer. #booksky dharmakelleher.com/collections/...

Finished reading Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein yesterday. An amazing novel, especially considering she was only 19 when she wrote it. The themes of loneliness, isolation, and grief she explores are profound. Now I’m reading Lev Grossman’s The Magicians. #booksky
