This is unironically a lot worse than Jimmy Kimmel but you won't see 1/1000 of the outrage

Advantages of fatphobia: nobody wants to sit next to you on planes if they can avoid it. Whole row for me now, losers

Airlines love nothing more than to give you ten minutes to get to your gate across the other end of the airport

Heading home now, thank you to all the folks that I met at AFC! And sorry if I was out of it today, I am very tired,,?

self-promo sucks right now, this year, this regime. HOWEVER i did write a book about a queer man at long last reaching his breaking point with one regime in particular (the British) and then struggling to regain his whole sense of self while married to a Very Moral Pirate. oh + lots of fucking.

This platforms moderation is currently unable to tell the difference between artistic/non-sexual nudity and explicit pornography How do you expect them to be able to differentiate between consensual and non-consensual?

If you see this skeet you have to name a trans book more people should read. Under the Dragon Moon by @mawcehanlin.bsky.social A grumpy transmasc warlock in New Orleans solving a murder mystery while falling in love with a literal ball of sunshine—this book has ✨EVERYTHING✨

"we're taking the modern day parts out of asscreed" ohh so we're taking away one of the more interesting parts of the game okay sure it's fine it's cool whatever

COVER REVEAL 🔥✨🏴‍☠️🏳️‍🌈 I’m so excited to finally show folks this BEAUTIFUL cover!! Stunning art by Jan (@thistlearts.bsky.social), who not only obliged me in portraying all three (!!!) of my queer, poly, radical pirates—he also absolutely nailed their dynamic! Coming March 17, 2026! emcaro.carrd.co

i have already had to be mean and detach a quote today. appropriating That Monster from an indigenous culture you do not belong to is zero tolerance

i write transmasc smut bc i want transmascs to know there's no wrong way to be transmasc. there is no wrong way to love your body or wrong way to be trans. it is all sexy and good. and also bc it gets me off and that's not a moral failing or whatever.

My books are about relationships of all kinds, and I include romance because it's healing for me. Yeah, the plots are dark, but writing queer, emotionally available, burn the world for you supportive relationships fills a void in my heart from years of lack. Maybe it will be for a reader as well

The last thing I wrote was about letting yourself be known, truly known for who you are, and still finding love.

i'm v happy w/ how the main couple in "besieger" turned out. are they horrible ppl individually & is it an ill omen if they show up at your house? yes but they'll look great while drinking your blood or soft resetting your memories. plus they're obsessed w/ each other even after 900 years 🥺🥹🖤

i don't write traditional romance (because i'm a fan of tragedy), but DESECRATE has a lot of love in it!! Kit's a transmasc agender person with a queer platonic partner who happens to be a nun! (Benny ily) Their QPR means a lot to me as someone who doesn't date but has platonic life partners ♡

The romance in my rivals to lovers WIP is all about self discovery. The MC Noe realizes what she wants out of a relationship and how to ask for it instead of accepting what she's been given in her current relationship #writingprompt

First of all, it's a monster romance. It's also an exploration of desire in the wake of grief, reclaiming (and reforging) yourself when trauma has hollowed you out, and stepping into unfamiliar states of consciousness as an act of trust. There's an alchemical quality to their relationship.

Hello, #WritingPrompt! I love a romantic plot (or subplot), and they tend to be a key feature in my books. My werewolf romantasy Eyes Shines Silver in Moonlight features two pairings, four werewolves altogether; it's also set in a world where werewolves are affected by moonlust. (1/5)

started a new game called whisper of the house and i forgot it's technically a horror bc i got so caught up in making my kitchen all orange and midmod and then when i was helping somebody move in i found a crack behind their wall with a secret room full of trash and chains

The long form book im working on is going to feature pining and overcoming internalized feelings of inadequacy and grief. Also leaning towards throuple ending because why should my mc have to choose. My novella is going to start as pwp but probably end with feelings but im kinda playing it by ear

All my books have a central romance which I consider The Whole Point. WINGS (low 🌶️) and CONSORT (high 🌶️) have pretty wholesome romance arcs; loving and unselfish. (I'm overusing the tagline today but)-- Dogwood is more "my love is your fault and therefore your problem." #WritingPrompt

The romance in THE DEVOURING is so important because it adds a nuanced layer to villainous MCs that would otherwise make them feel flat and boring. It's one thing for Jason to be a sociopathic killer, but his care for Ayana humanizes him, making him more relatable and interesting.

I'm considering the idea of the main character being in a polycule. Probably not a great idea if I actually want to get published, but every relationship I've had has involved one, so write what you know.

UNTETHERED has my first fat, genderfluid character who doesn't feel deserving of love and it's so important to me that Selanna loves Deirdre exactly how he is now because how Deirdre feels about himself hits close to home

I was gonna start a book 3 on my Star Wars story, but as per usual, my characters decided to do a 180 and totally shock me with yet another story. I have reimagined all my Star Wars characters into a diesel punk /fantasy /historical fiction drama. i’m excited to start something fresh. #Writing

the romance in CHITIN is basically me telling me that there are people who want to build a life with me despite not being their "romantic" partner...and I hope that helps my fellow aromantics who are struggling to envision a future for themselves

I love the romance I spark in the book. A few of them are subtle, but there's going to be one fully on display that'll be awkward and adorable. It took me so long to settle on just one of the main three, ending up in a relationship. I genuinely can't imagine the series without it. 🧵 #WritingPrompt

Im writing a romance! It's my first romance-centric plot and my first non-erotica attempt at spice. Getting the tone and spice level right is difficult! I do love the angst, though. It's a bit of a self-indulgent story. The FMC is very me-coded and the MMC is kind of a dream-guy.

THE CRADLE OF ETERNAL NIGHT is my sole entry where the romance is very much tied with the plot; if those two don't care about each other, they're both off on their own to more tragic ends for both them and the world at large

BYMMS is my 1st foray into paranormal romance, which makes it special to me. Bell & Tae are a strangers-to-friends-to-lovers couple, which I think adds a layer of sweetness to their romance I hadn't expected. They're so cute together, I love writing about them. 💜 Plus, the monster side is fun too.

Since I’m still annoyed about yesterday, tell me about the romance in your book/wip and what it means to you! #WritingPrompt
