Write the book you would like to see someone pull from a higgledy piggledy pile in a secondhand shop 63 years after your death and say, "This looks fucking weird. I think I will buy it for Joan

the thing about third spaces is that you're supposed to, you know, not have to pay to exist in them. can't say that about bars nightclubs bowling alleys movie theaters (maybe marinas?). these are spaces that are declining because we're all broke and you need money to be in them.

For more than a centurye, *King Lear* by Shakespeare was alterid to have a happye endinge. People onlye startid readinge *Beowulf* yn the 19th centurye. Ther ys no stable "classic literature" categorye -- everye tyme, place, and moment doth see a worke differentlye, and that ys how it sholde be.

Hey so, if you use Waymo driverless car services, you are aiding and abetting fascism. Waymo helps ICE agents locate people to terrorize and abduct. The company willingly shares all facial recognition, license plate and GPS data with ICE and other law enforcement agencies—no subpoena required.

Holy shit! A TANITH LEE humble bundle! Run. Now. Go. Get. Holy SHIT.

In January of this year, I rescinded acceptance of a story by Irene W Collins. It was a difficult decision, and came about because of various factors that made me doubt that a human writer was the sole party at the helm of the story. [1/X]

I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He's still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 20 minutes. And all that time he insisted he was a ghost, already dead but trapped in semi-corporeal form by Pure Evil. I told him Get Well Sir.

Sending around my ko-fi goal again because i was quoted a price on the phone that was $200 less than my home insurers charged me. If you can help out at all or share this around, I'll be super grateful. ko-fi.com/karidru

If you ever second guess yourself about buying stuff related to your fursona, my advice is: Don’t. Lean into it. Hard. In the immortal words of MTV: “Too much is never enough.”

Dear picture book authors, It's not you. It's the dumpster-fire market. More and more great manuscripts get rejected all the time. More and more great picture books go out of print - faster and faster and faster. You're not alone. It's everywhere and everyone and everything.

I'm going to share Harlow's story here, and piggyback off of it to tell my own story about Pepper Coyote. Pepper will likely play this off as a "drunk oopsie". Given how he has treated me and TM since about 2022/23, I can tell you he doesn't need the alcohol. bsky.app/profile/harl...

It's great that we have a President that other world leaders have to plan communicating with like they're figuring out how to do sign language with Koko the gorilla.

We're looking for a few good zines to have at our table at ComicCon. Specifically, we want zines that: - Talk about what furry means to you - Describe how furry has positively impacted your life - Tells the story of how you found furry - Or just broadly illuminates the fandom and culture

*flipping through sketchbook* ah yes, that time I drew cookie monster from memory

i was not expecting the cheese magazine to go for this one but i’m so glad they did

Has anyone considered that Mitch McConnell finally put his turtle shell back on and returned to the ocean like a selkie.

20+ sales and downloads is crazy thank you so much to the ravers who checked it out!! have a few physical cds left in the FtR stash as well so if you're local keep an eye out for them in future xoxo

Le Guin on the idea that there is a secret to getting good at writing.

It's also one of the most important things you can do for a child to help them become literate. There's a reason why even schools that have a no homework policy recommend 20 minutes of reading to your child every night.

Many of my fondest memories involves my mom or grandma reading to me. I’m so glad both of my sisters have valued that too and are reading a ton to their kids. There’s rarely a day without a book.

For those following the UK news, don't get too excited. Shithouse Thanos has done this at least once, maybe twice before. He'll be back inside two years.

Can you even imagine what the application/retention rate at a business would be like if one of the perks was "two or three times a year we all get on a bus and go on a museum tour or to the aluminum recycling plant or Colonial Williamsburg, pack a lunch"

no abuser sustains a career of abuse alone. At every stage, they have people willing to give them second, third, 30th chance while the survivors keep being unable to pay their bills. those are also choices, and you don't get to be automatically loved for them. Who gets all the chances speaks volumes

When I read what really good writing can do, what it makes me feel, how it communicates, I feel privileged to be a writer.

Mitch McConnell's soul being shattered into a trillion shards and then being reincarnated in parallel a trillion times as the 99.9% of baby turtles who never manage to reach the sea before being eaten alive by predators

Since I was a kid they have discovered NUMEROUS exoplanets, star systems with potential exoplanets, and new deep field images showing galactic clusters of unimaginable size, each one possibly with a thousand worlds like our own. Science is moving at a pace that conjures existential questions.

Got my books! I'm looking forward to both! I suspect they're going to be extremely different. 😄 @cornellwriter.bsky.social
