scottish winter is so chilly i'm wearing a scarf in my own home as i write

being a writer means most days are like pulling teeth, but some days are like staring at a perfect diamond that you've just pulled from stone and wondering at how you managed to create something you love so much. today, so far, is one of the latter days 🥲

We're trapped in a hall of mirrors this evening. Our reflections leer back at us in contorted constellations. It's really quite unsettling. Much like today's short story. "The Broken Specter" by @byfionahansen.bsky.social crowcrosskeys.com/2025/03/29/t...

Today, the South Carolina State Board of Education voted to ban four books from all state schools, despite passionate testimony and a packed room of people defending the books. The four books were Flamer, All Boys Aren’t Blue, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, and Push.

HUGE ALERT FOR TRANS PEOPLE TRYING TO GET THEIR PASSPORTS IN ORDER — the U.S. State Department has stopped issuing passports with the “X” gender marker and has suspended processing applications for ALL GENDER MARKER CHANGES. 🧵 19thnews.org/2025/01/tran...

Thank you to everyone who've bid on items for the 2nd annual #KidLit4Ceasefire fundraiser already! 🫶 With a ceasefire coming tomorrow, families will be hoping to evacuate injured family members. 175+ items left without bids! www.32auctions.com/organization... Next goal $10,000 raised!

As I dive back into Natural History WIP revisions, I'm thinking of some of my future WIPs that have been so patiently waiting for my attention. Namely: 🦇 Sapphic Carmilla-insp. Romantasy (perf for fans of Nosferatu) 🏚️🛶 Twin Peaks-insp. YA sapphic spec. horror/thriller

THE SACRED SPACE BETWEEN is coming to North America! So excited to announce it’ll be released this November with Little, Brown in the US alongside Harper Voyager in the UK. Truly a dream come true!! ✨

HBO has declined to renew “Sesame Street” for new episodes. The series that’s been teaching generations of little kids since 1969 now has no studio. Please consider donating to Sesame Workshop to ensure the residents of 123 Sesame Street are still around to teach kids of all needs and backgrounds.

Surprise! You didn’t think I’d have just the one book coming out in 2025, did you? Disney asked me to write a follow-up to TANGLED—a horrible decision, really—and as I dearly love that movie, how could I say no? (It may have also given me the chance to put “Give that horse a sword” in a book.)

Please share widely 🙏🏼 I am taking item donations (literally anything from the publishing community or readers) for the next #KidLit4Ceasefire fundraiser to run Jan 15th through 31st. I am at about 100 items, trying to get to at least 500. airtable.com/appgMC1CTRup...

a first draft is supposed to be bad, a first draft is for discovery, a first draft will have plot holes and thats ok, a first draft will not be polished and thats ok, a first—

After nearly five years as a writer, I just typed 'the end' for the first time. A draft of my adult queer historical fantasy exists! Now for the fun work — the revising & rewriting. But first... to celebrate with Thanksgiving food, a good book, and a few days off! #amrevising
