Idk if there’s anything better than seeing readers as feral over my characters as I am 🥰 what a compliment thank you 💖

That second pic is how I feel writing them, Lust and Found especially.

Readers who like your smut to be immediate and numerous… this the one. Not a slow burn!

As paradox as it may seem, the largest scale weapon of conquest are the border demarcations. There's an alchemical infused border ward around the country, and certain people can not cross it.
Not much of a weapon, I admit, until you make them movable. Which they did.
#JanuaryWorldbuilders
Heya, #JanuaryWorldbuilders! Today's military/warfare question: What are some large-scale weapons or siege engines used in your world? Have you ever written a scene with those? Also, feel free to yap about siege warfare in general. What other strategies do they employ?

For my #AwesomeCharacters, Kragh would eat it, even if it was tomatoes, and he'd try to be stealthy about not liking it.
Because the moment Valir would notice, he'd make a scene, full unbearable noble mode. Karen has nothing on him.

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

Silly one today! They messed up your character's meal at a restaurant! It is not something they want.

What do they do?

Eat it without complaint? Politely ask for a remake? Leave without paying? Cause a scene?

Halfway through book 3, despite my best efforts to pace myself. @trudieskies.readindiefantasy.com writes awesome books.

The worldbuilding is well done, the characters feel real, and I am having all sorts of emotions. You should read it

Nothing will ever be as cutting as when I gave a manuscript to an elder gay WASP and he just said “Oh John, you love your mysteries”

Mamdani is so, so good at this. By which I don’t mean “at politics “, though he is, but at using his office to make people’s lives better while reminding them what government can be.
"The number of downloads...surged by 529% after Mr. Mamdani’s news conference"

"there had been 3,000 people on a waiting list to access a limited number of e-book copies"

"2,000 people applied for a library card over the weekend, roughly twice as many as had applied by this time last year"

A win!

PLZ DONATE AND BOOST 🏳️‍⚧️💕

My insurance won’t cover my breast augmentation revision surgery. The previous surgeon was awful and left me with pain and even more dysphoria.

This year is my last chance to get this done. I need any help I can get 🫶🏼

📣 New novel announcement:
ANNA DREAMS OF A DEAD REVOLUTIONARY is coming from @tinhouse.bsky.social in 2028. When people ask what it's about, I say it's like SOUR CHERRY, except the haunted house is Greece, and Bluebeard is fascism. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈✊

Keep writing your queer, trans, antifascist books, friends.

I really need to learn how to market/sell my books better, but it's hard to tell what advice is genuine, and what is just a scam to get you to buy their course.
And then also which advice is applicable to queer trans romance, and not just a good way to find cis het audiences.

Friends, if you have good news about your writing or art, we need to see that. The onslaught of political posting & rallying against fascism is important, but your happiness about your creative wins is part of what people are standing for. Don't let the bastards take that away from you.

Protect your cats from bird flu: NO RAW OR FREEZE DRIED FOOD OR TREATS
In non-fascism news, a gentle reminder: bird flu still permeates the pet food supply chain in the US and bird flu will kill your cat or cost you a ton of money, IF your vet has access to equipment/therapies.
IF.
No raw food.
Your freeze dried treats also need to be cooked.
Keep them safe.

Tolkien and Lewis would be absolutely disgusted by the modern wankers who have no understanding of love, friendship, family and personal faith using their works to forward behaviour utterly antithetical to the message and ethos of their works.

Stop citing my authors! They would loathe your bigotry!
