If these ID laws stay in place across America we will see more identity theft then ever before. It could genuinely become a type of financial epidemic. If you're in a state with these laws: PLEASE GOD email your reps about the recent Discord hack and ask them how they plan to protect you.

#Kinktober day 3 is here! 😉I decided on Nipple Play, since I didn't have anything else that fit.

"I want to see you." I slid her tank top off, and her strapless top fell between us. My eyes took in her soft, natural breasts and her dark pink nipples. "Fuck, you're beautiful; so--" the second beautiful was cut off as I leaned down and took one of her nipples into my mouth. Olivia moaned and tilted her head back. I could feel the ends of her hair brush against my knees.

I am tentatively looking for published authors who would be interested in being a part of a second space horror anthology, the sequel, so to speak, to Astrophobia.

When Felix is asked to help debunk an urban legend, he thinks there's nothing to it. Monsters aren't real, right? Well, until something finds him in the dark...

Almost October, almost spooky times! Perfect time to pick up my teen horror, THE DEVIL IN THE WOODS!🕯️

Ad for the Devil in the Woods by S. Jean. On the left are illustrations of Felix holding a match an d staring at the camera while the devil with the elk skull and dark robes looms behind him. To the right is text to give you a taste of what's in store for you. The text reads: urban legend, creepy cults hidden in the woods, missing hearts, cryptid core, small town horror, slow creeping dead

Below the text is a line illustration of an anatomical heart with a quote across it. The quote reads: "Come into the woods and find my still beating heart." The url along the bottom of the ad is where to find the book and it reads: "books.earlronove.com/thedevilinthewoods"

Secrets out! Punishing The F*ckboy is getting an audiobook!

I found a fantastic narrator/producer that fits into my indie budget and I'm so excited for y'all to hear this wonderful sample. Keep an eye out for more samples!

Georgie is okay, he's getting on medication and it's another monthly expense, but I do what I can for this little guy. We've both had a very exhausting day today. I'd say Georgie had it worse, but he is already back to wanting brushes and treats and I'm the one ready to cry from overstimulation lmao

Dae Storm @d-author.link · 13d

I'm at the emergency vet again with Georgie and need the 192 for the ER exam fee at the very least if anyone can help.

Cash app: $dmichelle97
