Fiction is nothing more than the truth hidden behind a shiny lie. When we remove the reality, the issues get clearer and it's easier to step into the shoes of someone different. This is why I write fantasy.

Who would’ve thought we’d be living these books out? We are in perilous times.

The Amazon boycott doesn't affect Bezos AT ALL.
When someone is THAT rich a few thousand peeps dropping a sub doesn't even cover 1 second of his earnings.
BUT it has a huge affect on authors.

ok, this is a gorgeous cover, and I'm reposting so I can learn more about it.
One thing we can do to challenge systemic barriers in the publishing industry is throw our support behind Black and brown people in publishing.

Here’s an author I want you to do that for. Go pre-order this incredible fantasy! When it launches next month, I’ll be hosting a buddyread!

The trees had things to say. So did the skunks, her potted cactus, and a monster who crashed into her house in the middle of the night. Evidently, magic is real - and it makes dating a little complicated.

I have published over 50 books. It's odd how the ones I struggle with the most are always the best sellers. I'm sure there's something to learn here.

There's nothing quite as traditional as that post holiday cold that comes from spending time with people you really didn't want to see anyway.

My deaf boy checking to make sure I'm still where he left me. I'm writing. He's "guarding." Such a good boi.

Welp, here's another I need to read. And to think, I was recently whining about not knowing what I should pick up next, and now I'm getting a rather long #TBR.
@desiabstrusity.bsky.social has an amazing fantasy romance series with a trans heroine. Abby has an eye for the kind of historical detail I love to nerd out about, and the books mix sweet & spicy romance with heart-wrenching (and ultimately affirming) self-discovery.

I have just reached the stage in my WIP where I not only re-plotted (to account for my rogue characters) but also wrote the blurb. Things are going well. The end is in sight.

Now watch, I'll get stuck on some foolish detail and struggle to finish. #writerslife

Today I learned there's a debate about whether listening to audiobooks should count as "reading."

I guess I "read" movies now, since I use subtitles.

And I've just found someone else I need to follow on tiktok it seems. Went through and watched Dr. Emily's stuff, and she makes some amazing points about exactly how political our favorite stories are. Women's rights? political. LGBT+ rights? politial. Etc.

Ohh, tough one. When writing, Helvetica. When reading, I'm an old school Garamond type (ha!) of person.
writers of bluesky: quick, favorite font. I’ll go first. Baskerville.
