Yall, I can’t say what yet, but something really big is happening today, and I need it to go well. Send all the good thoughts🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hey all, a fun new update is here. When I started YC I bulk ordered a lot of my labels. However, after moving and feeling the need for an update, I got with my main line designer to edit. 1/4

My fall candles are here and ready to be adopted. Check them out today!

New updated list of all current 24 Twisted Tales. These don’t need to be read in order, but if you are like me & need to read things in order, they are in full release order. 3 more are confirmed, with “No One Gets Left Behind” releasing in April 2026. The cover has yet to be revealed.

Yall, I’ve finished 3 books so far this week and it’s only Wednesday. Like what!!

Do people even use blue anymore? It feels like literally everyone has disappeared.

Someone should Venmo Me $50 so I can get the #TS12 vinyl and cd. 😭😭 why’d it have to drop 4 days before payday. @ PatrickYim815 Mostly jk but like 🥺🥺🥺 #taylorswift #lifeofashowgirl

I can’t stand men. Finally went out with someone and opened up about how hurt I’d been in the past & the constant ghosting & getting stood up. Then on our second meet up that he suggested he left me sitting there no response. I waited 30 min and left. Then he texted 3 hours later and said he forgot.

Welp the fourth guy in a row has made plans to see me, and after talking for a bit seemingly great conversation, for the fourth time in a row, has canceled on me the day before. I get that things happen, but at this point is there something wrong with me? Like genuinely.

I’m so tired of hearing about SJM

I know authors push their B&N sales, but I wish more authors would start publicizing their titles on @libro.fm more too. They have really good deals and preorders, & could be a major player against audible as they grow. Not to mention every one of their sales goes back to support indie bookstores.

- Joe Black wears H&M and gets torn to shreds - Ginger wears Temu and everyone laughs 🙃🙃🙃

Welp car is back in shop for the rest of the weekend and I’m stuck at parents through Monday. My MH is gonna be cooked.

Well car is back on the road for the moment but is Still struggling so I hope it holds till the weekend.

I just had my third car breakdown in three weeks. I also received a ticket for something I know for a fact I didn’t do. I’m not doing ok today at all.

The billionaires are going to do everything they can to stop Zohran Mamdani in November. Americans everywhere must stand beside him. zohranfornyc.com

Like we said yesterday: speak out and you’re fired. The Trump administration has made it clear, if you report wrongdoing, you’ll be fired. A senior Justice Department official, Emil Bove III, told staff he was willing to ignore court orders to push Trump’s deportation agenda.

My Insta feed is actually hitting what I wanted it to look like for this current Pride challenge. Very happy with it. #booksky

June is #audiobook month. Thanks to places like @libro.fm and @netgalley.bsky.social, I have read pretty much only through audiobook for the last six months. I’ll never get tired of a good audiobook.

Today was a mentally rough day, but we were slow enough at work that I was able to put on a book for most of my time. I’m honestly really proud of myself for starting and finishing this entire book today. It was so good too.

I’ve been doing a 30 day pride post challenge on Insta posting 30 queer books by 30 authors. Getting dumped, workload, all the pub bookmail, and general stress of my candle pride booths has definitely made it a struggle. I’m behind but I’m catching up. Someone make me finish this challenge. 😩

Welp the guy I spent the last 4mo talking to dropped me. apparently he’s been seeing someone else. to top it off FairyLoot screwed the Human Rites release sold out of before they even sent codes. So I didn’t get the last book in the series that I’ve been collecting for 2.5 yrs. Today is not my day.

That Starbooty challenge on #rupaulsdragrace all stars 10 was…..a choice. 😬😬😬

10 shows to get to know me: 1. Once Upon a Time 2. LOST 3. rupaul’s Drag Race 4. She-Ra: Princess of Power 5. Big Brother 6. Grey’s Anatomy 7. Selling Sunset 8. The Floor 9. Avatar: The Last Airbender 10. Pretty Little Liars

How many times have I cried today……yes.

Ok look, Jojo Siwa isn’t my favorite person in the world either, and I think how she handles the break up with her girlfriend was horrid, but can we please stop using her new relationship as an excuse to be bi/pan phobic?? Especially from our own queer community.

Welp thought I was meeting the guy I’ve been talking to finally but just got rescheduled again. Honestly idk if it’s actually work or if I’m just being played like always. Why is so hard to find a decent person who wants something serious and will actually be there? Sigh. Happy pride.

Happy pride, and thanks to author Myles Alan for this copy of Beautiful Chaos. #booksky #lgbt #mylesalan #indiebook #pridemonth

Happy *quiet, chill* Pride.

Chappell not winning really anything at the AMAs was…..odd.

Don’t you just love when the ex guy you had a minor something with who was horribly shitty to you and blocked you randomly makes a new booksta and re-adds you like nothing ever happened. Cool cool me too.

Hey friends, make sure to come out and see me this pride season. I’ll be at 3 separate events with most of my scents, and also journals. If you can’t attend in person, just check out my website. I can ship anywhere in the USA. 🥰 www.yimcreations.com #candles #smallbusiness #lgbt #booksky #pride

Something exciting just arrived today from #harlequin. Unpacking Video coming soon 😍😍😍

Bruh, why my brain got to be mean tonight. I had such a good day until now. 😑

The devastating moment when the fantasy guy at the grocery that you know nothing will happen with, but you have a fun little crush on walks in holding hands with someone and kissing them. Faux gutted lol.

I’m very happy with the #Dragrace All Stars 10 bracket one semi finalists group. Feels correct.

A picture of this precious angel to get feed the community. #catsky #cats #petsky

Watching the new show Mid Century Modern, and all I can think is….so this is the Golden Girls.

I just did a full hour long swim workout, something I haven’t done in probably 15 years. It felt so good, but my body and lungs are SCREAMING! Hopefully this is a good start to something.

Don’t make plans with me if you don’t intend to follow through with said plans.

The April #fairyloot YA and Adult books have officially arrived. - YA pick is “The Glittering Edge” by Alyssa Villaire - Adult pick is “This Monster of Mine” by Shalini Abeysekara #specialedition #bookmail #booksky

Y’all! I’m so excited for this one. I miss Scooby Doo. #booksky #scoobydoo

Finally made my first TikTok in literally forever. It was a book mail haul of arcs/books received from publishers over the last few months. If you’re interested in seeing what I got, go check it out. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP86a1tCN/ #booksky #bookmail #books #arcs #publishermail

Nothing like a salmon bagel at one of your favorite local coffee shops. 😍😍

Fully redid my bookshelves yesterday and I think that helped get me partially out of the funk I was in recently. Not fully, but it helped. 🥰 #bookish #booksky #fairyloot #illumicrate

Yall, I think I’m going to submit a story to an anthology. I think I’m finally going to do it.

Current reads. The first is an arc of “Love in Focus” by Lyla Lee, and the second is the newly published 3rd installment in the Deathcast universe, “The Survivor Wants to Die at the End” by Adam Silvera. #booksky #lgbt #lgbtreads #bookish

Love having two packages that are out for delivery, one of them being a really important book preorder, and waiting on them all day. Then that afternoon getting a message that the address was undeliverable. But there is literally nothing in or around the mailbox. So, it could have been delivered.

huge shoutout to @matthewhubbard.bsky.social on the release of your new book!! Y’all go support this Alabama author & their amazing journey. They deserve all the support! If you can’t find it locally reach out to your indies to get one & check online. #booksky #lgbtbooks
