New poem from our NH State Poet Laureate, and it's great: swamp-pink.charleston.edu/featured/rom... #poetry

It is time once again! I'm picking up work on my gay romance between a cis pastor and a trans pet shop employee. It's shaping up to be the longest novel I've written to date. #amwriting cdn.prowritingaid.com/challenges/n...

The International Space Station is marking 25 years of nonstop human presence in orbit. Nearly 300 people have lived aboard the scientific outpost.

Special shoutout to my peep TJ Williams on threads and their new book Tethered which is a interracial sapphic scif romance. www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...

My friend @seraphrdm.bsky.social has put together a forum/spreadsheet for authors who are offering a free eBook for donations to their local food banks. If you want to be added to that spreadsheet, fill out the form! docs.google.com/forms/d/1F8m...

Boosting this! Hey, if you want a free book from me? Donate $5 or more to the San Antonio Food Bank. Next month, millions of San Antonians in need will not be able to afford food. This is a great way to step up and help the community and every dime helps. #BookSky #SATX #BlackBookSky

Happy Spooky Season from this usually not very cuddly girl. #cats
