The motion to add poetry to the Hugo Awards has passed. Thank you to everyone who has shown support, discussed this award, sat through business meetings, and nominated/voted in the Hugo Awards. This is a huge, huge deal to poets. I am actually a bit teary. <3 #poetryhugo poetryhugo.com

I'm on this CBC list of 10 short Canadian SFFH reads for the Summer with lots of friends. I do think Countess is a good novella to try out Space Opera with. It's a dark book but its an emotional story and it's got good food and it is short! Trying new things is good! www.cbc.ca/books/canadi...

I'm so excited to help reveal the breathtaking cover of The Flowers I Deserve by Tamara Jerée @tamarajeree.com ! If you know me, you know I LOVE Tamara’s writing and I couldn’t be more excited for this upcoming release, if I tried. 🧵

How about a promo day for reasons… if you’ve been affected by the NSFW takedowns and shadowbans on itch, share the other places people can support your work below ⬇️ #WritingPrompt

itchio pulling the rug out from so many queer creators overnight with no warning or explanation makes me ache all over. it’s so deeply fucked. watching this shit happen again and again is so fucking exhausting and disheartening and makes it so much harder to keep creating.

so itchio has shadowbanned any games tagged with 'nsfw', 'adult', or 'erotic' so they don't show up in searches, and several devs have reported that their r18 games have been removed from the site with no warning

COVER REVEAL 🥀 THE FLOWERS I DESERVE is an atmospheric and character-driven FFF gothic fantasy about guilt and worth. It's also about serving a tall demon lady. Illustration by @artofelaineho.bsky.social Typography by Cass at Opulent Designs Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...

I read the first book in this series (SECRET SPARK) back in December and had such a good time!! I loved Joan and Sadie together, and the tension around Joan's secret identity had me sinking into my chair. I genuinely wanted them to be ok and am so excited for the sequel! Also Joan is literally hot.

I'm excited to announce my forthcoming novel THE FLOWERS I DESERVE, a spicy FFF gothic fantasy about a grieving young woman who becomes a royal poison girl in service to the demonic lady king. Cover reveal this Thursday 🥀

Hey, so it's National Library Week. You're going to see a lot of calls to get a library card and check out books. All well and good. But I'm going to ask you to do something a little more supportive: speak up.

I recently read The Fall That Saved Us by @tamarajeree.bsky.social 🪽🪽 this is a heartfelt fantasy romance novel about finding oneself and healing from abusive, repressive religious upbringing #booksky

This #TransRightsReadathon I’m thinking about just how few trans people of color get any kind of opportunity to publish, or recognition at all once they do

Today's my birthday! This is a hard time to feel celebratory, but it would mean a lot if folks shared my books. You can request them at your library or place an order through your local indie bookstore. I write spicy cozydark fantasy books about magical Black lesbians! bookshop.org/contributors...

Library Funding Targeted in New Trump Executive Order: What It Means & What To Do Now bookriot.com/imls-executi...

what if: a literary horror novel with the character dynamics of a dark romance (and everyone's a Black lesbian) what if: we love the evil queen and sacrifice everything for her what if: pillow princesses hanging out in a magic garden and feeding each other tea cakes what if: i'm editing it rn

I know a lot of people are boycotting Amazon, which is great, but it's hurting a lot of trans authors. Trans authors: Drop links to your NON-AMAZON book listings/storefronts. Cis people: Repost, boost, and, importantly, buy. Part of boycotting an evil corporation is supporting the alternatives.

Thank you to everyone who has backed so far! Check out the campaign for a special edition hardcover of my Carmilla-inspired sapphic vampire romance UNHOLY WITH EYES LIKE WOLVES. 🖤 Reward info below.

feeling homesick again. there are so many things i miss about the rural south. i miss stepping outside of my house and seeing nobody but the pines. i miss deer in my yard. i miss the sun and especially the storms. i got a white noise machine to whisper rain sounds at night, and it's not the same

I think? I just finished drafting my third book. This is my longest first draft ever (102k!) which I'm so proud of as a chronic underwriter. Starting out with short stories meant my instinct for scenes was very different than what suits book-length work. But I feel so much growth with this project.

Smashwords is also having a huge sale in early march; they gave me an option to select how much my book would be on sale!

with all the updates about kindle and amazon: a reminder that I and many other self pub authors have books on platforms other than amz! this is a super important topic to me as an indie bookseller, but in most conversations, I've noticed people assume there are no other avenues for self pub authors
