Me to my family who can't grasp that I might not want to 'celebrate' the holidays this year:

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 14: Introduce us to your MC today! Prisca is very, very loose inspired by Ilona Maher. She's autistic, ace and biromantic. She's a retired rugby player and coach but for the past year spent her time as caretaker. #writesky #queerwriters #writers #lgbtqwriters

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 13: Goals day! What are your goals this week? Still hope to manage 600 words a day. It would keep me on track to finally wrap this WIP up by the end of October. We'll see. #writesky #queerwriters #writers #lgbtqwriters

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 11: Check in day! How was your week? A day late but I hit my goal all but one day last week so I'm calling that a win. #writesky #queerwriters #writers #lgbtqwriters

Keith poses an excellent question…and the answer is NOTHING!

Like Bari Weiss being stuffed by a billionaire atop CBS to lie to normies, this is billionaires stuffing rightwing ideas into AI systems to lie to normies. The whole fascist takeover of the US is built atop an information war.

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members. They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

Because it needs to be said: The Salvation Army does not exist to save you The Salvation Army exists to convert you And if they cannot convert you, they will not lift a finger to save you Do not support those whose “charity“ comes with conditions

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment. An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action. A disinformation machine as our journalism fails. A bias machine as fascism takes root. A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

My novella The Hand That Feeds still makes me very happy! I loved writing these characters so much books2read.com/u/4APvDq sasseverett.itch.io/the-hand-tha... #lgbtqwriteathon

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 10: What will you find in my Skeleton Crew cozy series? - Chaos Kittens - Found Family - An adorable autistic vampire + their witchy girlfriend - Knitting - a cozy paranormal world filled with magic and mystery readerlinks.com/l/4105779 #CozyMystery #ParanormalRomance

Curious if folks are getting the impression that those around them are unaware antifa is not an org? We know this admin is dead set on pretending it is & many media are uncritically perpetuating that. Feels like we’re watching an elite disinfo campaign move in both a rapid and absurdist fashion.

As a birder this breaks my heart. As a citizen of this extraordinary planet, this breaks my soul.

NEW: Trump Wants to Take Over Cities. Influencers Are Giving Him the Fuel to Do It Wrote a bit about the content mill for consensus the Trump administration has created to justify its law-and-order immigration agenda. More here: www.wired.com/story/trump-...

'When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist,' the Norwegian Nobel Committee said as it announced Maria Corina Machado as the winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 9: Share pride flags or pride flag inspired moodboards for your WIP today! The grief brain fog is strong today and I'm not up to making a moodboard. Gif it will have to be. #writesky #queerwriters #writers #lgbtqwriters

It's clear by now that the Democrats won't press this case as aggressively as it needs to be pressed, and the media won't do that unless they have Democrats' quotes to use as a springboard either. They won't do this work, so it's even more important that we circulate these stories ourselves.

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 8: What genre is your WIP? I suppose Contemporary Romance is the genre that fits the closest. #writesky #queerwriters #writers #lgbtqwriters

/adds to lexicon/

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 7: What is the setting and/or time period of your WIP? It's set in Cornwall. Time period? I don't really say specifically but at the very least, it's after the LOTR's trilogy came out lol. #writesky #queerwriters #writers #lgbtqwriters

Oh hey please subscribe I talk about writing, media, tea and various other things catching my fancy (and to everyone who remained subscribed while it lay fallow, thank you SO MUCH).

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 6: Goals day! What are your goals this week? I'd really like to manage 600 words a day. It would keep me on track to finally wrap this WIP up by the end of October. We'll see. #writesky #queerwriters #writers #lgbtqwriters

If I were an investigative journalist in the UK (are there any left?), I would be having a good look at the extent to which NHS leadership seems to have allied itself with a fringe medical movement that more or less condones conversion therapy. qnews.com.au/australian-r...

related, when the president is invading our own country, waging war on our own people, i don't wanna see dems give the GOP shit they ask for, don't wanna hear shit bout 'we hope our friends across the aisle will work with us on bipartisan solutions to the problems they cause' i don't want none of it

It’s not exactly a promo? Not sure. But this is regarding a side project I started a couple of years ago, inspired by a short creative writing assignment I submitted for a class in 2021. I’m working on a short story titled The Awakened Queen, and this is the moodboard I created for it a while ago.

Proud of all my magically-inclined idiots and chaos gremlins that helped me explore my own identity, process my mental health, and took me on wonderful (sometimes difficult) journeys that came with unpacking my autism, being enby, and embracing my asexuality. 🖤 🌈🚀💫 🌈📚🪐 ♠️🌈📚 #queerAdultSFF

Great Chris Murphy quote from our interview: "I would be a sucker to agree to a budget that literally funds an operation to hunt me and my allies down—to imprison us, harass us, intimidate us. If you want our votes, it can’t be for rampant lawlessness." Tons more like that all throughout:

NEW: ICE is planning to hire a team of nearly 30 people to surveil social media 24/7, build dossiers on people, and flag them for arrest and deportation. @dell.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-so...

#LGBTQWriteAThon 10/3 I mean, I’m proud of most of my books, but my pothead fantasy epic The Elvenweed Chronicles is the kind of fun-filled book I always wanted. I could read this a million times and still be amused by it. #writesky #queerwriters #writers #lgbtqwriters
