I am gutted to learn of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social (Alice Wong’s) passing. She was always a warm friend, a wonderful spirit, and someone who fostered my own growth. She helped me see that, as a #disabled person with chronic illness, I matter—I am whole. I’ll be posting some of Alice’s work. ❤️ forever
A photo of a woman in pink in a wheelchair. She has an intubation for oxygen. She looks up at the viewer. Words: This is Alice's friend Sandy Ho, posting. Per Alice's wishes, this message is being shared at the time of her passing Hi everyone, it looks like I ran out of time. I have so many dreams that I wanted to fulfill and plans to create new stories for you. There are a few in progress that might come to fruition in a few years if things work out. I did not ever imagine ! would live to this age and end up a writer, editor, activist, and more. As a kid riddled with insecurity and internalized ableism, I could not see a path forward. It was thanks to friendships and some great teachers who believed in me that I was able to fight my way out of miserable situations into a place where I finally felt comfortable in my skin. We need more stories about us and our culture. You all, we all, deserve the everything and more in such a hostile, ableist environment. Our wisdom is incisive and unflinching. I'm honored to be your ancestor and believe disabled oracles like us will light the way to the future. Don't let the bastards grind you down. I love you all. may her memory

You GOTTA stop being so desperately afraid of the audience. Look at me. Look in my eyeballs. Stop being so desperate for approval. Stop writing for the whiny babies in your audience and start writing for the freaks who like cool fucked up shit

IT LIIIIVES! Riyati Ripple is officially out! Come for the traumatized teens, stay for the increasingly further traumatized teens

Direct 🏠 store.aquakatpublishing.com/collection/r...
Itch Bundle 🔗 riyati.ink/itch-ripple
Other Retailers 🛒 riyati.ink/ripple

📚📢📚💙 🌈📚🌎 🪐📚⚔️🌈🚀 #QueerSFF #QueerAdultSFF
Header text that reads, “Every act of defiance steers you into the person you were always meant to become.” A 3d mockup of an ereader with Riyati Ripple’s cover is on the left. On the right, the following bullets are listed: Third book in series Dark Fantasy Contemporary & low fantasy with urban fantasy elements Buffy x Persona 4 Vibes 1st Person & Multi PoV Classism & effects of generational poverty Demi, ND fMC Found Family Reincarnations Intricate Elemental Magic Childhood Friends Slow Burn 97k words (~320 pages) Retailers Logos for the itch.io, ko-fi, Campfire, Payhip, Apple Books, Kobo, Smashwords, Google Play Books, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon Kindle are listed. Underneath says "+ more @ riyati.ink/ripple" The promo image is yellow and brown colors, with a faded yellow magic glyph with foreign characters. Text reads as follows: “After Nimaka’s death and the older selves returning to their own time, Kylie ran from all she’d known and grown up with at North Opal Pines, but she soon learns she can’t run far or fast enough. She thought she could leave it all behind: go back to being a normal high school student, make new friends, keep her grades up and her mother happy. But Nimaka’s death has only rallied the two others, and now they’ve stalked Kylie to her new school. Even worse, they have a mysterious new leader who no longer seeks to just kill Kylie but all those she knows and loves…. and the body count is rising. Kylie can’t get by on “just surviving” anymore: to protect herself — let alone those around her — she must become as strong and cunning as Siani was, or everyone she’s ever known and loved will die with her.” Illustrated character art for Kylie Rae, Jordan Boyle, and Maya Van Daele are together. To their right are mockups of an ereader, smartphone, and print book that has Riyati Ripple’s cover. Under the mockups is the text “riyati.ink/ripple” in a bubble. There are faded yellow particles and a yellow faded glyph on a black background. On top of the particles and glyph is text that reads: I just needed the damn piece of paper. That’s all that mattered. I could do this, would do this. Yet despite telling myself that more than once in the past few weeks, I still wondered if this had been nothing but a massive mistake. I pulled my jacket tighter around myself. Outside was like a humid swamp hell, but they must’ve had the AC running full blast inside. It worked for the best since I preferred long sleeves, but outside of work, I hadn’t been in an AC’ed environment in weeks now — nearing a month. It brought me back to the question I’d asked myself so many times now: how was I going to do this?   Just as predictably, there was only one answer as well: it didn’t matter; I had no other option.   -Maya On the bottom left, there is a picture of a teenage girl with dark brown hair and light emerald eyes pensively looking to the side. To her right, retailer logos are listed as follows: itch.io, ko-fi, Campfire, Payhip, Apple Books, Smashwords, Google Play Books, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon Kindle. A plus sign with “more @ riyati.ink/ripple” is under the retailer logos. Riyati Ripple Launch Sales!

weirdest ways to get past writing block
1) switch to comic sans
2) write your story as a fairytale summary so far
3) write a paragraph of your story if the koolaid man burst through a wall into the scene

"Hey so you said after the play was done you'd clean up the space, but there are still lots of comatose bodies and blood laying around? This is a community theatre space, just because you're putting on a production about some king of yellow doesn't mean you don't have to respect the rules."
