goooood morning the sun is OUT and it’s nice and cool so you know it for a fact: Lucy Loved That Walk

The Morning Monty soaks up the sun while he can get it.

PSA for night sky watchers:

I adore this book. @clclark.bsky.social is so good.

🎶 Ther ys a place biyonde the wyrmhole A place to loveres solelye knowne - The brave, the hopeful, the lost, the worthye, Peraventure me and thee! Will not thou wende wyth these fooles and dreameres To the planete we calle home? We hope we wil greete thee soone On Sanctuarye Moone 🎶

The sun is out again (for the moment) and Monty says to shut up and leave him alone - as he has some naps to squeeze in before winter.

Finished. One Fox Mask as inspired by Silent Hill F, now available for private sale. Just message if you're interested.

Monty does not approve of this grim and chilly #Caturday

In case you missed it last night - Oi, Shiny! is once more open for US shoppers. Very limited stock, am adding more (migraine permitting) but hopefully I can slowly get the ball rolling again.

Coming soon: Dominion of the Fallen re-release (in the US), with bonus content! Sign up to my newsletter for more info: www.aliettedebodard.com/newsletter @fringe-element.net made them and they are SO PRETTY (Picture: Peter Herrmann, used with Unsplash license)

They’re real! Limited editions of THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE THE TIME WAR, available soon!

anyway good night

You know me and how I feel about creatures. So believe me when I tell you that you’ll want to read @tkingfisher.com’s new one. Loved it.

I've opened my jewellery shop back up, but for the moment I'm still relying on #TurtleOfCalm - it's likely I'll end up with a payment reserve on Etsy since things have been quiet, and I don't know how quickly orders will come in. Thank you everyone sharing. <3

(There's also a good chance Etsy will put me on reserve since I've had no sales for a while, so I don't want to get an avalanche of orders overnight and not be able to pay to post them. One step at a time!) So - who would like a shiny thing? oishiny.etsy.com

Just pre-ordered the newest MurderBot novel by @marthawells.com. Not sure how to wait until May...

goooood morning it is grim and cool outside, but not in the heart of this happy young lady because oh yes: Lucy Loved That Walk

The Morning Monty is ready to raise a little hell.

Major Avengers: Domesday spoilers.... spoiler space spoiler space spoiler space So after 1066, William the Conqueror realizes he needs a team of heroes to survey a newly conquered England, and there's only one crew heroic enough to compile a complete census of the English polity

I need to come up with about £400 in the next 2 weeks to pay rent and bills. That's about 400 single wallpapers. Or 80 mini bundles. Or 20 bundles. ko-fi.com/turtleofcalm... Got a long way to go, but there's plenty of tiny adventures to go around! #Helpsky #💕💸#DisabledArtist #Photography

Snuggly Season is upon us

anyway good night

goooood morning it is cool and overcast and kind of grim, but not if you’re this little lady because oh yes, it’s true: Lucy Loved That Walk

The Morning Monty surrenders to his sunless fate.

EROTICIZED BODY HORROR AHEAD ❗ @mcflycahill90.bsky.social speaks with @sarahgailey.bsky.social about The Thing, physicality in fiction, and their new horror novel Spread Me 💚 reactormag.com/author-inter...

I'm still working on re-opening my jewellery shop to the US and in the meantime, I'm hoping #TurtleOfCalm can help pay October's rent. If you'd like to join in the tiny adventures, there's over 150 wallpapers to choose from here: ko-fi.com/turtleofcalm... #Helpsky #💕💸 #Photography

anyway good night

Can I brighten up your background with a tiny adventure or two? (The files are landscape but plenty of these also crop nicely for phones.) ko-fi.com/s/1abe97d4e4 This one is from Winnall Moors Nature Reserve - that stream behind the #TurtleOfCalm was usually a path, but we'd just had a storm.

Someone You Can Build A Nest In is a UK Kindle Deal! Get my monster for just 99p.

Since I'm spending a lot of time doing everything except what I need to be doing, here's one thing I've been meaning to do: This is the link for my upcoming book tour for Queen Demon, the sequel to Witch King, 2nd book in the Rising World. Tour starts Oct 6. us.macmillan.com/tours/martha...

The Morning Monty wishes the sunbeams were more consistent today, but he’ll take what he can get.

goooood morning it is partly cloudy and very cool, but we got our jaunt accomplished before it started raining again so you know it: Lucy Loved That Walk

Today's word is HARD. Today's #BookQW from DEMON'S DEN & OTHER TALES OF VALDEMAR, a collection of my stories from the Valdemar anthologies. Each complete in itself, the stories provide Herald Jors with an emotional story arc. And geese. eBook still affordable at Cdn$3.99, US$2.99, £2.49, and €2.70

These sound too horror for me but you should probably check them out

Happy book birthday to @franwilde.baky.social and @seananmcguire.bsky.social! I’m excited to read both of these.

Good morning October! Here's hoping Spooky Season brings us all lots of good luck and good times. It'll be a minute before I can get the jewellery shop opened up, so I'm leaning on #TurtleOfCalm to get the rent paid - who wants to take home a tiny adventure? ko-fi.com/s/e215269b08 #Helpsky #💕💸

Book Quote Wednesday's word is 'hard' #BookQW If limits on your book budget are a challenge, good news! The Green Man's War is a Kindle ebook deal for October. Get caught up with Dan Mackmain's adventures before The Green Man's Holiday is published on 30th October. www.amazon.co.uk/Green-Mans-W...

I don't know why I had to make this, but I had to make this.

It's new @tkingfisher.com book day! I need to rush to finish the current book I'm on the last like 150 pages of because I have been impatiently waiting for this book since it was announced. Ruritanian romance meets gothic horror meets new weird. Tightly plotted, beautifully written, and SO creepy.

tfw your vet is delighted with your progress on a weight loss journey (down 10 pounds from the beginning!) but you are not so impressed with the low-cal food and the strictly limited snacks.

If you want even more WHAT THE FUCK, though not in Ursula’s style, you can read Spread Me by @sarahgailey.bsky.social. Just in case your WHAT THE FUCK quota hasn’t been met yet.

This is *amazing* so far. Do not read at night. Ursula Veron and @kjcharleswriter.com are pretty much tied at this point for writing books where I realize I *was* reading the book and now I'm five citations deep in a rabbit hole about the Angel of Mons or horrifying mine gases.

Finished What Stalks The Deep. Caves remain terrifying but at least this one was dry. Easton continues to be delightful and practical. The answer to the titular question is still deeply alarming. Buy this book so we keep getting Sworn Soldier stories. 💙📚

The Morning Monty is ready for a sunny smack down

In a surprising turn of events, @tkingfisher.com has managed to ruin western saddles in her new book What Stalks the Deeps. I will never be able to thy k of one without giggling.

Happy book release day to @franwilde.bsky.social for A PHILOSOPHY OF THIEVES! This is a good one, as all Fran's books are. You should get it.

❤️❤️❤️
