Whether you're a Mennik Thorn fan or whether you've just been curious, I've got a new prequel novella, The Dead Man, coming out on November 18th this year. Pre-order now! books2read.com/thedeadman

Truly, the greatest danger in watching K-Pop Demon Hunters is that the music WILL remain in your head forever. And I'm okay with that.

It's my pleasure to help reveal the cover of The Chosen One Con, the first book in a new gaslamp duology, Lost in the Aether, written by @trudieskies.readindiefantasy.com. Cover by James T. Egan (Bookfly Design). Full info: jamreads.com/reveals/cove... 💙📚

Interior artwork + endpaper design I made for Olivia Atwater's book THE WITCHWOOD KNOT🩷

As much as I wrote this for survivors, I'll be honest: this is a book I would love cishet men to read because truly, from the bottom of my heart, I want them to be as fucking terrified of women's rage as we're raised to be of them.

Just finished tearing my way through @dapperdinobot.bsky.social's "The Cataphract Oath" today. Was an absolute blast from start to finish! To any of you who enjoyed reading my novella, you will absolutely devour this book—I highly recommend it! www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

I've been unemployed for two years now, applying to every job I see (animation and just regular part time anything) and have had no luck. I'm currently going through a massive upheaval in my life; the best way to support me rn is either donations thru my kofi or sharing my reel ko-fi.com/tehflood

@oliviaatwater.com I wish to register a complaint. I'm reading while walking down the street and your book just made me laugh out loud, in public, which is unacceptable.

Good morning, folks! The "Echoes of the Imperium" (narrated by yours truly) will be on sale at 4.99$ until July 21st—but there's more! The ship's hold is full to bursting with other great audiobooks at 5$ or less, so come take a gander! books.bookfunnel.com/buydirectaud...

I don't know why I've fallen back down the Gundam SEED/Destiny rabbithole again, but it's so much more enjoyable this time around skipping all the teenage drama for everything La Flaga/Murrue Ramius. Everything about those two being together gives me life, I tell you.

This week in #steampunk: “Nautilus” is a hit for AMC; Nikola Tesla Day celebrations; Scenes from Sacramento Time Travelers’ Ball; New Prof. Elemental album; Lee Presson waxes romantic; Steampunk ballet; Weekend preview. steampunk-explorer.com/digest/steam...

@oliviaatwater.com: I'm trying to figure out what to do next for tomorrow's tabletop session. I have thoughts, but not sure how to get from X to Y. Me, casually: Have you considered *insert nightmare fuel here* Olivia: Ohmygodyesssssss. Do you have a creepy playlist fo— Me: Nope, but on it.

Don't you just love it when Audiomachine not only drops a new, awesome album of music but also wrote several tracks totally, specifically for one of your writing projects? Not a bad way to start the day. search.audiomachine.com/tracks?track... Any instrumental music inspiring your work? #booksky

The first draft isn't meant to be perfect; it's meant to be written. You can't edit a blank page. Also, reader bandwidth is a thing. Make life as easy as possible in reading, so they aren't exhausting themselves backtracking when they can just be enjoying themselves.

Today's queer indie Pride book rec: The Thirteenth Hour by @trudieskies.readindiefantasy.com. A fun (except when Tru rips your heart out) gaslamp fantasy about taking down the gods themselves. Ever wondered if there could be atheists in worlds where gods actually exist? Wonder no more!

Today is the start of the SPFBO Championship League as hosted by @marklawrenceauthor.bsky.social! The ten winners of ten SPFBO's past will compete to be crowned the ultimate winner! All in good fun of course 😉 Find out more: www.readindiefantasy.com/spfbo-champi...

#WyrdAndWonder25 Day 25 Sea dog Peg Leg - Favourite fantastical captains & crew mates A swashbuckling gem, equal parts heart, humor, & flying adventure. Found family at its finest: imperfect, inclusive, unwaveringly supportive. Witty banter, flipped tropes, & just the right mix of cozy & chaotic.

To celebrate hitting 500 ratings on Goodreads, and as a big THANK YOU to all my readers, The Thirteenth Hour is FREE this week until Friday! I couldn't have hit this amazing milestone without you! 🥰 Get the ebook for free on the UK and US Amazon store: mybook.to/TheThirteent...

It's only been nearly a week since the end of #Andor, and I am still wonderfully haunted by that show. What a damn ride. It has absolutely set the bar for some incredible storytelling, and is a veritable goldmine of interesting things to peel back. Any favourite quotes, folks? So many to choose!

Wyrd and Wonder 2025: Setting Sail: It's time for the Wyrd and Wonder event, celebrating fantasy stories in May each year. Here I have a few thoughts on what I might read for it! breathesbooks.com/2025/05/02/w... #WyrdAndWonder25 #booksky

Updated this review because I just finished listening to the audiobook and DEAR GOD PEOPLE - you need to put @nicholasatwater.com in your damned ears yesterday. This narration is so insanely good. www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
