Better cut tourism investment to invest in fracking then 🙃

Ahhhhh what a day! Texted like half of N. America (and I know I still missed a bunch of people) to show off my cover, and updated my website, and sent out April's newsletter, *and* found out I just sold a short story to Citywide Lunch, so the 30-day submission challenge is paying off. 💙📚 #BookSky 🪐📚

So excited for Joanne and her gorgeous book! Jane Austen folks, don't let this one slide under your radar!

Aw thanks Waye!

Thank you for reading & sharing! 💞

I'd love to read something in a format other than Twitter posts from him on this; "the otherness of persons in the flesh is neutralized" is a banger.

I can’t get over how gorgeous this cover by Pei Yuan Li is! So many thanks to Inanna for involving me in decisions about specifics and finding such a talented cover artist. Also very grateful to @kateheartfield.com for her lovely blurb. 💙📚 #BookSky #JaneAusten #bookish #romance 🪐📚

Finally managed to get some perspective on this g.d. plot outline. I was talking to my writer group about it & one said, "the fae world needs to be the reverse of the real world" & even though that's not really exactly what I am doing, it gave me a framework to think about it which was so helpful.

Name Four Non-Person Things That Make Your Life Livable: 1. Also a faulty memory. I got 3/4 through a movie this week before realizing I’d seen it before. 2. Movies. 3. Books, both reading and writing. 4. Beaches of the North Atlantic! The salt smell, rocks, fog, and little scuttling creatures.

Just a gal and her anticapitalist cannibalism novella 🥰🩷🥩📚

Emerging from three weeks of the worst flu I have ever had to continue singing the praises of the stories in the Sound/Silence issue of Saros SF. The linguist in me cannot get enough of @yasmeenfahmy.bsky.social's work, and I hope to see her stories in many, many magazines in the years to come!

@realfollowers.bsky.social, how many bots do I have and is there a way to get a list?

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.
