Hi, I’m Krys!

All winter, I write stories, yell at NFL games, watch movies, and wish it was warmer out.

I follow writers, editors, actors, directors, journalists, artists, and Swifties.

My feed is chaos, as I post about whatever’s on my mind.

These are my pets, Penny, Zoe, Tessa, Max and Ruby.
Penny, a chocolate Labrador retriever, is laying flat on an oak floor with her head between her legs which are spread out wide in front of her. She is looking off to the left of the camera. Zoe, a black and tan shorthair tortie cat, is standing on a cream rug looking directly at the camera, her eyes a glowing chartreuse. Tess, a gray and cream shorthair tortie, is standing on a white kitchen table, looking out a window. She is photographed from the side, so only one of her bright chartreuse eyes is visible. Max and Ruby, two white shorthair rabbits with adorably pink ears, are sitting together on an oak floor munching happily on some green maple leaves. Max has black eyes and is facing the camera, and Ruby, an albino bunny with red eyes, is facing slightly away from the camera.

So, in launching my new biz, I started an IG account, and did something I’ve never done before. Created a video with a voiceover. 😬

I’ve been so busy working around the clock these past couple months, I’m entirely out of touch with what’s going on in the news, and checking in today, I have never been more happy to be out of touch with what’s going on in the news.

You need cozy fantasy to survive our world gone fucked up?

You love trans joy and spicy queer romance?

Pre-order TEMPEST, TAKE ME HOME! Butt Pirates will make everything better
cknightwrites.bsky.social Charlie Knight [they/them] | Editor / Author 📚 @cknightwrites.bsky.social · Mar 7
This T4T romantasy leans heavily toward the romance, which features a nonbinary treasure hunter and a trans man whose a magical cartographer. It's polyamorous with high heat, and the story centers trans joy, trans love, and found family.

The crew of Tempest can't wait to have you on board!

ADHD is such a bear sometimes. I’m having to trick myself into working on things related to my biz launch by listening to podcasts on the topic to make myself think I’m learning something new. 🙄

I’m going through a major ADHD hyperfixation phase with this project I’m working on. Wild hours, inability to do anything else… this is intense!

Been a while since I’ve had anything to say. Everything’s alright, just focused deeply on a new project. Hope to have more to share before long.

How are YOU doing?

Really good information about writing a scene, from Jane Friedman. #writingcommunity #fiction #ilovebooks #writing #pnw

To keep readers engaged, build each scene toward a breaking point then reveal something new about the characters, their world, or the plot.

Tell me something good.

I need some good news.

I’ll start: my kid got up and did chores without any reminders or prompting. Just cheerfully did what needed doing. 🤩

So, all the news is bad right now. Nothing is safe. How can I keep being creative in this timeline??
