BCS Patreon has fallen below the monthly amount we need to pay our authors a pro rate and our First Readers a worthy honorarium ($125/mo). Sometimes folks need to lower or pause their support; we understand. But less than 1% of BCS readership donates or supports. www.patreon.com/beneath_ceas... 1/3

It still feels surreal that people connected with the first book, and I'd love to give something back.

If this post hits 500 shares, I'll make the Beyond The Mark eBook free for all of December.

No catch, just a thank you for the support and a push to keep me writing.

Next #SPFBO review:

A sweeping romantasy of simmering tension, quiet power plays, and a world shaped by loyalty and desire. Reign and Ruin wraps court intrigue in heat and heart, perfect for readers who love politics softened by longing.

This mushroom family (?) looks like it's melting but I think it's just being a mushroom. No, I didn't try it to check if it was edible. 😬

The hoatzin (Opisthocomus hoazin) is a weird & wonderful bird, native to the Orinoco & Amazon basins in South America, where it lives in trees overhanging rivers & marshes.

It has a striking look reminiscent of fossil birds like Archaeopteryx, but is more closely related to cranes & plovers.

So, last night, I bound (glued, really, book binding glue is the *bomb*) a large print version of _The Legend of Damndrake_ for my brother. 🙌🏽 And it got me really interesting in book binding! Any recommendations on who I should follow to learn the craft? #booksky #bookcraft

TIL: that "whale" as a verb meaning "to beat the hell out of someone" (or, as the OED has it, "to beat, flog, thrash") dates back to at least 1790.

I would never have guessed it was that old, nor that it had enough of a lineage to appear in the OED.

We can all agree we DON’T want engineers and doctors not learning their stuff and relying on biased computing instead, yeah? 😭
"Millions of students cant do their homework because ChatGPT is offline" is a horrifying headline to see because if we dont fix this shit ASAP we're going to have an entire fucking generation that has no actual educations.
Engineers and Doctors who have to pull up ChatGPT to do even the basic shit.

With some apology to Robert Frost, when two roads diverge in a wood, statistically, there are a lot of people who will go either way. We're weird like that.

I have a thread here that explains how deer, not city planners, are responsible for the path of New York City's Broadway.
The Lenape people used an island they called ''Manahatta" as a shared hunting ground. Footpaths of game & hunters around wetlands and marshes followed a high ridge near the central part of the island called the Wickquasgeck Trail.

The Dutch purchased the island 1624 (from the wrong Lenape, btw)...
