In case you need something to read by the pool this week! #pridemonth #lgbtqbooks #lgbtqhistoricalfiction #sapphicbooks #writersofbluesky #writingcommunity

Hey y'all, if you're in central Ohio, come hang out at Worthington Pride. I'll be there from 1-5 with books, stickers, buttons, and candy. And history facts for anyone that wants to nerd out about Gay Berlin in the 1920s. #pride #pridemonth #lgbtqauthors #queerhistory

The Bi Book by A.J. Irving & Cynthia Alonso (Illustrated) Gay the Pray Away by Natalie Naudus Hardly Creatures: Poems by Rob Macaisa Colgate Give My Love to Berlin by Katherine Bryant The Mage of Mourning (Otherworldly Anarchist 2) by Dreamer's Riot Mrs. Victoria Buys a Brothel by Talhí Briones

Cabaret meets The Nightingale. #authorsoftiktok #authortok #writersoftiktok #writertok #debutnovel #givemylovetoberlin

I've been working on a new thing, sort of Dr. Who meets The Midnight Library and I can't decide if fantasy is easier to write than historical fiction, because I am basically making it all up as I go, or if it is exponentially harder for the exact same reason. #writingcommunity #workinprogress

Not only is the government corrupt, not only does it feel like everything is falling apart and every aspect of American life is being destroyed, but my body said "Welcome to Perimenopause. Good luck, sucker." I've basically cried every day since January 1st. It's been a real joy. Cheers to 2025. 🥂

I'm so excited to announce I'm going to be a featured author at the Columbus Book Festival this July! Stay tuned for more details! You can also see other featured authors at www.columbusbookfestival.org #featuredauthor #columbusbookfestival #debutnovel

Hey #RFKJr, Disrespectfully, please keep my child's name out of your mouth. Signed, every parent of an autistic child in the United States. #actuallyautistic #autismmom #autismfamily #autismacceptance

Whoever is in charge of NYT Connections really didn't read the room with this one today. 😂😂 #katyperry #roar #givemeabreak

🥹🥹🥹🥹 Thank you for doing something, Sen. Booker. This was an amazing and inspirational thing to witness.

Sometimes your art isn't for everyone. Sometimes there's going to be a person that looks at the thing you've worked so hard on and say they hate it. But there are also people out there that will be changed by your art. That will love it so much, it will become part of them. Keep making your art. 💜

This is the group that is publishing my debut novel, Give My Love to Berlin, in May. I'm so proud that they are taking a stand against the current administration and no longer being politically neutral. (And my book is one of the books they're talking about!) #writingcommunity #booksarepolitical

Let's talk about why it's okay to stay hopeful. 💙💙 medium.com/@katherine.d... #hope #writing #community #writersky #writingcommunity #hopecore

Did John Green make today's NYT connections puzzle? #johngreen #everythingistuberculosis #nyt #connections

Some good news in Ohio. The ban on trans healthcare for minors was struck down as unconstitutional. The best part? The court’s decision was bc of Ohio’s Health Care Freedom Amendment, the Republican constitutional provision to undermine the Affordable Care Act. 😂😂😂 #protecttransyouth

I just got my first five star review on NetGalley and if you need me, I'll be crying in the corner while pinching myself. Special thanks to this reviewer, bc they made my entire month. #debutnovel #writersky #writingcommunity #netgalley

I have to spend the day doing line edits before my second novel gets sent out on submission. I'm on chapter ten and I have 36 chapters left to do. And apparently France wants the Statue of Liberty back. Everything is normal. #writing #editing #writingcommunity #writersky

I'm trying to build up an audience on Medium, so come check me out! My goal is to post twice a month, sooooo we'll see. 😂 🫠 #writersky #writingcommunity #debutauthor #debutnovel

Opening the box that contains copies of my debut novel is a feeling I don't know that I'll ever be able to replicate. #writersky #debutnovel #writingcommunity #debutauthor

I was part of a program with Thurber House as an 8th grader in 1995. That was the moment I knew I wanted to be a writer. These programs are so important for students. And adults - I've done several adult workshops with this group as well. Please consider donating to help keep their doors open. 🩷📚🩷

Yesterday at a swim meet I sat next to a woman who told me her granddaughter was at a "chicken pox party" and that when her husband got COVID they used ivermectin and, idk, maybe we go back to only talking about the weather with strangers. #nothanks #crazypants #pleasevaccinate

I just finished Yellowface and I can't be the only person hoping for Juniper's death, right? It takes an incredible writer to create a page turner using such an unlikable main character. #booksky #marchreads #yellowface #rfkuang #unreliablenarrators

Who loves being an ARC reader? I'm starting to send out ARCs of my upcoming novel, Give My Love to Berlin. If you're interested, please let me know!! #writersky #lgbtqfiction #historicalfiction #arcreaders

Well. That's one way to end a week. #writersky #writingcommunity #brokenlaptop #writersnightmare

Do I have a TBR pile that's twenty books deep? Sure do. Am I still looking for suggestions on what to read this month? Sure am. Drop your recs below. What books have you loved so far this year? What books have spoken to your soul? What do I absolutely NEED to read? #tbr #readingrecs #booksky

My novel debuts in T-minus 80 days. It's going up on NetGalley in two weeks and my physical ARCs should be arriving at my house this month. And none of it feels real. I'm trying to figure out if posting about it once a day is being "too much." Do other authors feel that? #writersky #writingcommunity

I also live in MAGAland and while I still feel like I'm surrounded by trump flags and signs, I would estimate 1/4 of the ones I saw back in November have come down. It's a start.

Guys, I think the gay agenda was keeping planes in the sky.

I made myself Mickey waffles with powdered sugar for dinner while I watched someone else enjoy Magic Kingdom on YouTube. Just pretending everything is fine and we're not living in the middle of the fall of democracy. It's called self-care, look it up. #disneyadult #Disneyworld #selfcare #denial

LAST CALLLL

I've been struggling with overwhelming writer's block over the past few months. Nothing has been working and I haven't liked *anything* I've written. I started something new last night and I'm genuinely excited about something I'm writing. Finally. #writersblock #writersky #writingcommunity

Did vaccines cause my child's autism? I don't think so, but we could ask her engineer father while he hyperfixates on which kind of car is his favorite or her grandfather while he recites every episode of Star Trek verbatim. #rfk #autism #neurodivergence #vaccinessavelives #measles

I'm always so impressed by multiple POVs, my upcoming novel has 2 POVs, which wasn't my favorite to write. This book is working with like 6 and they're all woven together like a quilt. I would have loved to see the author's process of writing it. #booksky #writersky #bookreview #writingcommunity

Now that #p4a2025 is over (but you can donate and vote until Wednesday!!), back to my regular Sunday of prepping to teach a bunch of high school students about the wives of Henry the 8th. It's Anne's week, ya'll. (No, not *that* Anne. The other Anne.) #projectforawesome #henrytheviii #annofcleves

3.57 million raised and it was the most raised during a #p4a yet. The #nerdfighter community is the best and this weekend was exactly what I needed, a little balm to my soul in these very trying times. See you next year, #projectforawesome. #p4a2025 #nerdfighteria #sillyraycyrus #wereherebecause

Take a scroll break to watch my puppy play in the snow for the first time. Also #p4a2025 goes until noon today, so get those donations in. Up to 3.2 million this morning! #projectforawesome #wereherebecause #dftba #puppies #snowday

Oh man, this is so exciting!! Congrats #p4a2025. This year is gearing up to be the biggest yet!! There's still so much time left, so get your donations in!! 💕💕 Be part of something AWESOME! #projectforawesome #dftba #nerdfighteria #nerdfighters #partnersinhealth #decreaseworldsuck

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Day two of the #p4a2025 and the #nerdfighter community has raised 2.5 million for Partners in Health and the other charities involved. Head over to the #p4a website to donate and hang out with #HankGreen and guests on the Livestream for a lovely mood booster. 💕💕 #projectforawesome #wereherebecause

Hope is the thing with feathers.... #projectforawesome #p4a2025 #dftba #hopecore #wereherebecause

So what exactly is the Project for Awesome? Since 2007, my brother @hankgreen.bsky.social and many friends and online creators have come together to host an annual 48-hour livestream in support of great charities. Over the years, we've raised over $22,000,0000 for a huge variety of charities...

Instead of the doom scroll, you should spend this weekend watching and participating in the Project for Awesome. 48 hours spent highlighting non profits, raising money for those non profits, and just general merriment and shenanigans for two full days. #projectforawesome #p4a #hankgreen #johngreen

I can't imagine why I'm in the middle of a total and complete creative slump. #writersky #writingcommunity #anxiety #overwhelm #exhaustion #shockandawe

Sunday morning read. I have three chapters left and I can confidently say this is a ⭐⭐⭐⭐ read. It's a coming-of-age meets murder mystery and I'm *here for it* #booksky #currentlyreading #thelifewebury

Listen, I'm not here to tell you how to live your life, but if you're feeling overwhelmed, can I recommend breakfast for dinner and season two of New Girl? Because we're still having a coup, but at least I'm getting to see Nick and Jess kiss for the first time while eating pancakes. #newgirl

@guster.bsky.social There's a song for every mood. An album for every occasion. Also, I just recently found out artists can see the titles of playlists when you add their music on Spotify...sooo that's embarrassing.

How do you market when you're a tiny author with an indie publisher trying to get your debut novel in front of people? And why do these thoughts constantly roll around my brain like marbles, inducing a panic that I never even knew existed. #writersky #writingcommunity #authorcommunity #debutnovel

Any posts about my upcoming novel on TT keep getting suuuper low views. But I promise my LGBTQ historical fiction is very, very relevant to what we're seeing Right. This. Very. Second. #writersky #writingcommunity #debutnovel
