As part of the season, I begin a work of light on Imbolc. Through the year, I burn candles in bowls. The wax from each bowl is saved in an out of the way storage area when the candles burn down. Come Imbolc, the wax begins the process of becoming next year's candles.

When Aidan gets assigned to turn Unit 1407 around, he had no idea that he'd find the love of his life in <redacted>, his own strength, a found family, and a life worth living. More than that, he had no idea he'd be part of the community <redacted> actions that take down the Corps.

Hm...okay it's both easy and REALLY HARD. Easy to avoid ruining each book, but hard because the selling point is 'spoilers, things get better, communities win, and the fash-corps come down in the end.' My series is all about writing what I fear for our future, and then writing our way out of it.

Heya #QueerWritersChat! ! I'm Olivia. Biracial, bisexual, blue streak in my hair. Under my own name I write illustrated ethnobotany. Under O.E. Tearmann I write about escaping dystopia. Right now I've got a hopeful queer get-out-of-cyberpunk series out, and I'm working on a YA solarpunk.
Welcome to #QueerWritersChat!

Heads up #writingcommuntiy #booksky! Amphibian Press is closing due to changes in the owner's life. So if you know a press that would like to pick up a complete spec fic adventure series with strong LGBT rep and a punk rock vibe, I'm looking for a new press!

If I find a new publisher by May, I'll offer them a new YA solarpunk series, book 1 completed and cover supplied. If not, I'll run a Kickstarter and self pub in July.

We're all trying to get by, in our own way.
And if your way involves books, strong tea, and secret meetings with the old gods in the mossy end of the forest, so much the better.

Q1: How are you holding up this week? #WeeknightWriters
I'm mixed, but oddly optimistic. A lot of change is happening, and that feels daunting. But it's exciting too. There's a chance for new opportunities and new friends around the corner.

Imbolc, if you translate it out of Irish, means 'in the belly' (though some like to translate it to 'butter in the belly')
The name pinpoints the reason for the celebration. Now the first lambs are born, the first fresh milk of the year is flowing, and the cows are in calf. Life revives.

Art is my own.
Brigid's table is laid for the turning of the year. Milk for the fullness of life, hazelnuts for the knowing and whiskey for the inspiration. A cauldron full of possibilities in the form of this year's garden seeds. Her crosses, old and new, are laid. The door was unlocked for Her before dawn.

May Imbolc bring three things
The wit of the bard
The strength of the craftsman
The tenacity of the smith
To imagine the work
To begin the work
To see the work through
May there be a flame within you that is undying

Happy #Imbolc, ushered in by Brigid and her hare. Nature is stirring, there’s a full moon. The winter is ebbing away. The seeds scattered last year are waking up. Pat yourself on the back , you’ve made it through another winter.
