I love Tiffany anyway because... Tiffany = all kinds of awesome & wonderful, and this idea is also just... I need to make this one of my goals with social media this year.

As the political conditions in Latin America & the Caribbean becomes more complicated in ways that will surely affect some writers' safety or ability to travel, a reminder that we as fandom still have some portion of power to offer safety during travel and at cons to our marginalised peers.

The new Lightspeed Magazine aka @lightspeedmagazine.com incl my review of Beyond the Glittering World: An Anthology of Indigenous Feminisms and Futurisms by Darcie Little Badger, Stacie Shannon Denetsosie, and Kinsale Drake, eds. from Torrey House Press! www.lightspeedmagazine.com/issues/jan-2...

Calling Black horror freelancers! Pitch @horrorpress.com and set up a Zelle so you can get paid (if your pitch is accepted)!

How do you get over the fear that your childhood + HS + a bit into uni, bullies--one of whom is in the arts--will come after you, and 'get' you ... they're going to point at you and tell all the other bullies "Omiigoodd you guyyz, [legalname] is using a fake name now, loozer" and try to hurt you

82 percent! Can we get her the rest of the way? Please? <3

Great thread by @rblemberg.bsky.social about negative reviews that every writer -- and reader -- should check out.

Have we told you lately just how badass @wordhorde.bsky.social & their namesake brick & mortar @wordhorde-emporium.bsky.social are? We are eternally grateful for everyone who bets on us. Bookstores, we’re tellin ya: put us on your shelves, & we will sell🖤☠️

#Booksky, if you're curious about my debut short story collection, you can read a sample here, which includes the entire first story: read.amazon.com.au/sample/B0DRG... It's called ALL MY PRETTIES & the reviews always mention this one. It's about the woods & creepy dolls... Hansel & Gretel vibes.

I'm saying this louder for people in the back: there is enough unchecked cruelty in the world already. Anyone who invests in negativity and puts together lists of the "Worst" or "Most disappointing" books, films, music, and art, or who tags authors in negative reviews, please yeet yourself into 🔆

the final story of our final issue of Fantasy Magazine went up as free-to-read, Ichthyosis, and it's seriously SO GOOD - do yourself a favor: if you want to read something beautiful and startling, put your eyes on this. there's lots of great fiction and poetry on the site! please enjoy! : )

Northtown Books in Arcata is an absolutely incredible bookstore. Several years ago I met the folks who are running it now and their passion for running a welcoming local space was so infectious. This fire is utterly awful. If you can afford to kick in a few bucks to their fundraiser, please help.

Downtown San Diego turns out against the war.

Just called my Senator demanding they return from recess. Call yours - they need to hear from us! (& if you're in CA, see below!!)

2025 Recap & 2026 Goals is up on the Blog! www.scribblezilla.ca/post/taking-... I always get reflective around the New Year, so I ramble about the good, the ugly, and how to move forward. Then I made a little FUCK OFF merch to say goodbye to the past half a decade which threatened to take us out.

I did a truly *lovely* reading at Cafe Suspiro last year. Raul is one of those people who takes vicarious joy from the joy of others. He's asking for some help now.

Honored to be a speaker at the Wholehearted Writer's Week and hopefully share some advice about navigating a new community and finding your people 🙏

We haven't had many entries for this, so we're extending it another week in case people have been away for Xmas & New Years. Entries now close Sunday 11th Jan and we'll announce a winner afterwards.

The U.S. didnt just bomb Venezuela. They also bombed Northern Nigeria. Its just all horrific and people in congress are going to allow Cheetolini to literally get away with murder. theconversation.com/us-air-strik...

“What are we, Russia?!” - people who somehow missed the past 400 years of the United States of America

Please do not "He was no angel" somebody while the US illegally goes on undeclared war against Venezuela.

Ordinary evil.

Apparently air space over Puerto Rico is currently restricted because of Danger Yam attacking Venezuela, so flights are not going in or out. There are likely similar restrictions other places in the Caribbean and parts of South America. Be advised.

Tonight is a super full moon. Witches, do your thing. We need a major energetic shift. Do your limpias. Move your body. Build a fire. Say it with your chest.

And I use the word genocide a lot because that is what's going on. It is very clear from Project 2025 that they want anyone who is not a white, abled, cishet person to be in prison, dead, or enslaved. This is what this is. And I refuse to sugarcoat it.

Hey, all: help out a deserving friend! gofund.me/20e8a966e

Encouraged by @therisingtithes.bsky.social, I am posting a 'share something of joy' whether books or films, so I want to say that something that totally brought me much delight was on NYE, a concert from overseas showing different artists, including J Balvin, John Legend, and focusing on joy

You know what we need in 2026? A new Swet Shop Boys album. Cashmere was A DECADE AGO.

“Ichthyosis” is live on @fantasymagazine.bsky.social and free to read! I will forever love Fantasy Magazine for giving my story such a gorgeous home. If you’re in the mood for animal transformations, a horror of the body & home, a sea and an unmooring, then this is the story for you. 💙

And if you don't have the cash to buy the books you want, request them at your local public library. If they don't have a copy in circulation, they may be able to order a new one. Happy reading!

It's very clear that we have queer folks who are not culturally queer and that is a big fucking problem. I don't get queers who don't try to learn their own history or who are not in community enough to figure out how the queer community works.

"Winter, though, is for dreams. Still nights and clear skies beckon warmth away and then you will see him" My first pub of 2026 is out now in Star*Line @sfpoetry.bsky.social! Check out the latest issue, including "Harvestman" 🍂 sfpoetry.org/wp/starline/...

I hope that many, MANY more people this year listen to @jasonsanford.bsky.social about LLMs, about aye-eye 🗑️, getting it through the heads of those who keep evangelizing it and drinking the Kool-Aid (and shaming others who don't) that they are contributing to multiple harms on many levels 👇🏻

Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky, The flying cloud, the frosty light: The year is dying in the night; Ring out, wild bells, and let him die. Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go; Ring out the false, ring in the true. - Tennyson

Give Neon Hemlock all the awards!! By which I mean, if you're a voting member of the speculative writers' organizations, or if you vote in the Locus Awards or other things that will come up next year, here is a spate of worthy @neonhemlock.bsky.social titles to keep in mind!

Picture of the staff who operate my account.

You’re going to be okay. Someone will hate your book. You’re going to be okay. Someone will not get what you’re trying to do with your art and judge you. You’re going to be okay. You’re going to keep creating, in 2026, because you need it and because the world needs you to. Okay?

More Baffling with a double issue from Neon Hemlock! YAy!!!!!
