Yesterday my #locallibrary held a free class to make a mini bookshelf craft. I enjoyed it emensely and would highly recommend. Libraries aren't limited to borrow books. If you haven't recently, check to see what offerings yours may have. #supportlibraries #booksky 📚💙 #crafting

SHE’S AN AWARD WINNER!! Dead Things Are Closer Than They Appear is the 2025 Mass Book Award winner for YA/MG. I wrote a weird genre mashy story about a Korean American adoptee with no special skills who just happened to be there when a magical zombie apocalypse hit. And now, it’s an award winner 🥹

I will never get tired of catching the moon set over the hills first thing in the morning. This place is magic. (Although would not complain about sleeping past moonset, if brain could take a rest for five minutes...) #indieAuthors #funnyfantasy #CozyMysteries

Here is a quick drawing of angry fairy and silly frogs.

reminder that my queer cozy fantasy THE KEEPER OF LONELY SPIRITS is Hugo eligible, and I'd love if you nominated it! it's about an old man cursed with immortality who hunts ghosts rather than making mortal friends who will die one day. also it's about grief. and home. and a bunch of other stuff

If you think about it, the very best books are really just extremely long spells that turn you into a different person for the rest of your life

Another day another 16th Century mouse. I know this is not an in-depth demo of riveting I’m just sharing my day. #jeffdeboer #mousearmour #rivetedjewelry #miniatureartist #metalarts

I've been keeping this quiet for ages but I can finally announce that my story 'One by One', first published in @apexmag.bsky.social last year, has been selected for inclusion in the Best of British SF 2025 anthology! 🎉 The TOC is absolutely wild; I know and admire many of these amazing writers 😍

The thing about trying a new thing like drawing or writing is you have to be willing to suck at it, sometimes for quite a long time. In our age of instant gratification, people don't want to go through that stage but I'm here to tell you it makes the day you produce something you truly love so sweet

With the scarcity of #souls these days, is it wise to buy from a merchant in a darkened alley? What are they really selling? Maybe gravedirt laced with gibbering madness. I've lived without for years, and rarely feel its absence. Only in the deepest night, when I feel the moon tugging at me. #vss365

BORB!

Since last year, we’ve been reporting on ICE extensively. But every week brings new information, and it’s getting harder to keep track of what’s happening, let alone remember what’s already happened. So here’s a quick thread to help.

Recipe: 1 tsp teenage 👻 hunter 2 tsp 🤝 with the grim reaper to keep her cancer at bay 3 tsp annoying 👻 who swears he’s alive & begging for help finding his body 2 tbsp potential to ruin her 🤝 if she helps the 👻 Shake and stir. Pray the reaper doesn’t know what you’re up to #questpit #Q #YA

Reposting this without the typo because I'm still thinking about it 💜

Hello to all the new people! This year I got really into ink drawing ✒️

Hey you

I’m beyond thrilled that my debut romcom, LOVE BETWEEN THE LECTURES, will be published with Alcove Press in Fall 2026!! I was blown away by their enthusiasm and can’t wait to work with their incredible team!! A HUGE thank you to my brilliant agent Morgan Hughes and FinePrint Lit!!

bewitching nocturne hums the moon the lonely hear it and howl #vss365 #bewitched #poetry #photography

Today I finished the prototype 16th century mouse that is going to be on exhibition at the Kunstsammlungen der Veste Coburg for two years! This museum is a German castle that has one of the best preserved armour collections from the period. I am doing an edition of 12 if you’re interested in one.

My newest creation is this fabric art, wintertide tree that I designed and hand-sewed. The ornament is a mild, almost ineffective charm that will help you receive a hot drink that's almost the perfect temperature. The charm will also give you slightly creepy dreams that feature cranberry goblins.

I see I've gotten some new followers, so hello! I guess it's time to do another intro post! 👋 ✨I'm a YA & NA fantasy writer. My current WIP is full of demons and pretty dresses, and everyone is anxious and queer. ✨I, too, am queer and full of anxiety (and caffeine, usually). #WritingCommunity

If it sucks today, and it sucks tomorrow, and it sucks the next day, and sucks next week, and sucks next month, I keep going, and maybe eventually, it won't suck, but that shit doesn't happen if I give up. It's easier said than done. It is. But man, I've got to keep going. And I hope you do, too🍀

We've decorated so I think it's time to start sharing some winter themed art ❄️

it's awards season, and my queer cozy fantasy THE KEEPER OF LONELY SPIRITS is eligible for a Hugo, a Locus, and a Nebula! there's a brief book description in the post, or you can click this link: www.elizmanderson.com/keeper-of-lo... #author
