Excellent. I spent the two hours I had today to get stuff done working on a thing that didn't need to be done. But I feel accomplished having done it. Yay, dopamine!

It's me, moderating some very knowledgeable folks as they talk about games with historical content!

Darlings, a moment. Lean in to what brings you joy -- big or small. Joy matters. Reach out to *who* brings you joy -- near or far. Connection matters. Stand up/speak up for what matters -- as often as you can. Your voice mattters. Gather love close. Offer kindness whenever you can.

It's March already, and I did not authorize this.

This is one reason why you should always credit the artist and designer of your book cover when you post it. Make it easy for people to see you've hired real humans to wrap your words in something beautiful. Something worthy.

Forgot to post this on Friday, so here's the March 2026 writing prompts! historythatneverwas.com/2026/02/27/f...

I loved in 2025 (for your awards consideration) STORIES “When You Think No One Can See You” @lettie-prell.bsky.social “The Basilisk Painting” @anthonyeichenlaub.com “Artful Felicitations” @darusha.ca “So Deep, So Wide” by Michelle Muenzler “Last Dam Standing” @historyneverwas.bsky.social

Excellently spooky, and with a beating heart. Go ahead and watch!

Today on my blog, I review @sharangbiswas.bsky.social 's The Iron Below Remembers from @neonhemlock.bsky.social ! historythatneverwas.com/2026/02/25/r...

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.

My short story "Zugunruhe" is in Storyteller: A Tanith Lee Tribute Anthology! Thrilled to see the anthology on the final ballet for a Bram Stoker award!

Very hopeful that I'm seeing the end of this cold and hoping (knock on wood) for no more health issues for a while? That would be lovely.

The community drabble for today is, "One Giant Leap For Snailkind" by Dawn Vogel. The theme was "underdog." Find Dawn Vogel on Bluesky: @historyneverwas Care to drabble with us? Join the fun at reachyourapex.com/drbl #authors #drabbles #writingprompts

Today is the Day of Remembrance for the incarceration of Japanese Americans during WWII. FDR signed Executive Order 9066 on February 19, 1942. 1/

Short answer? hahahahahahaha no. (Plotter with a MESSY workspace.)

Today, Devin Miller's "The Fox's Cartographer" leads us to places that smell like wind and witching. Join the journey:

In case you missed it, I posted a free game to itch.io! https://reasie.itch.io/galactic-hellcats-in-love Enter the world of my bestselling novel Galactic Hellcats and its sequel Andrei and the Hellcats, where you will play as one of the twin sex robots, Autumn and Andrei, seeking love.

@historyneverwas.bsky.social’s Last Dam Standing in @analogsf.bsky.social depicts an almost cosy community of #mutualaid, albeit amidst ecological collapse. Mournful, a preemptive grief. But something about a resilient, capable female scientist enduring the apocalypse still fuels my #hope. #sff

Don't want to get my hopes up, but this sounds genuinely exciting. The seventh century is one of the most important era's in Western Eurasian history, witnessing the rise of Islam, the end of Ancient Persia, and the dramatic reduction of Eastern Rome losing its status as Mediterranean Empire.

On day 7 of a gross cold that we think hubbie brought home from work. He's been sick for at least 11 days now. This sucks. We're lucky to have sick time and the ability to work from home (when our brains allow it), but I'd really prefer to not be sick at all.

sorry I keep reposting my friends' posts about the cool stuff they're doing. It will happen again.

Time for the cover reveal for my upcoming collection, This Book Has Ghosts in It! historythatneverwas.com/2026/02/12/t...

My biggest piece of advice for other creatives (and just adults in general) is to learn to do things on your own. You don't need someone to do something with you in order to do it and have fun. You can do whatever you want by yourself. You do not need to rope others in as permission to do the thing.
