I think the main obstacle putting me off of opening bluesky (the way I used to open extinct classic twitter) is the constant feeling of showing up with bleary eyes and bedhead to some sort of Work Thing

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

my webcomic The Nameless Prisoner is coming soon...! fantasy adventure (gay) romance.. It's about a cursed knight who's deserted his order, and now he's been blackmailed into delivering the head of a recently executed prisoner to the queen... but when he shows up the guy is unfortunately very alive

pie chart titled silksong the whole thing just says "amazing, no notes" except there's one tiny sliver creeping in labelled "how about that groal runback eh?"

Lord alive, they want fictional characters in fictional sexual situations to model consent for literal adults like a patronizing early 2020’s sitcom where the point of the writing is to convey that the writer’s been to therapy at some point

the boys are hanging out!! 😍🐎⚔️🦎 If you're in Austin you can pick up both series at local queer indie favorite Birdhouse Books~ Also check out Triple Strike for an super fun M/M novel with lovely illustrations and a romance that develops during the main adventure (which is my favorite!)

Ursa and Genevieve, the main character + love interest of my new comic coming to ShortBox Comics Fair in 2 WEEKS...!

I'm always sad to miss another year of SPX but I had a great time at local SFF convention Armadillo Con here in Austin! (the 4-H horse book was a freebie from a series of excellent horse primer panels with @saraamueller.bsky.social !)

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

watching black mirror for the first time and it's a pretty horrifying experience. not bc of the episodes themselves but bc I am exposed to commenters online with no media literacy coming up with takeaways like "abuse/torture is justified if the other party is guilty of something"

Update: we just received a statement from Macmillan/Tor taking full responsibility for failing to register copyright, promising to make us whole and pay us any settlement money we lost out on due to that error, and promising to find & correct the lapses that caused this. Every pub should do this.

hello sunday nighttime gang... it's time to ask again for audiobook recs...! looking for a shorter read before I tackle the next gentleman bastards book. something like Piranesi would be perfect. I don't really vibe with anything labelled 'cozy' (no hate i just want books to fuck me up a lil)

locke lamora and farseer trilogy are both about young boys receiving a broad yet hyperspecific education in order to turn them into subtle masters of their art existing on the boundaries of the law except locke has the soul of a theater kid and fitz has the subtlety of an anvil

DVPit was huge for me and how I met my wonderful agent, same for many fellow authors I know... if you've got a graphic novel pitch or a prose manuscript you're working on with an eye for tradpub, a pitch event is a great first step towards that goal!

watched my dad play Return to Zork, whole game frightened me, even just the threat of grues, though the bat guano forest gets a special mention. that or the OG Alone in the Dark. Special mention in that one is the frozen dancers that turn into random geometry and chase you

sad whenever I have to reveal to someone that I, in fact, was not a horse girl growing up, but rather that special genre of autistic child who kept a home-printed dino facts binder and drew nothing but raptors until the age of 12 when I decided to graduate to the occasional digimon character

Oh by the way, don’t forget you can ask your library to order nearly any book you want to read but don’t want to buy. And as authors we love libraries buying our books & readers being able to access them through libraries.
