I've been working on TTRPGs for a while now, but this is the first time I get to have a whole book in physical form with my name in it 😭

It's a joy to be part of this editing team and to work on games for a franchise that I've always loved!

As of today, I have written at least 444 words every single day for 6 years. Because I need to. Because it hurts to keep the words contained. Because I was silenced for too long. Because Im running out of time. The words arent always good, but they always happen. And for as long as I can, they will!

This was incredibly helpful! I know now that this series title is an option for the work Im building, but I'll want to be careful with book titles and covers to make sure the vibes aren't confusing.

Thank you all so much. The writing community is a blessing 💜
Opinions please, booksky and writing community!

When you see the following series name, what do you think/expect in terms of genre, story, etc.? The series name:

Among Wild Stars

Thanks for the help, friends 💜

Caught it in time for antivirals! I fucking love scientists 😭
It's official: I didnt make it through this flu season without getting the flu. And she is kicking my ass for believing I could.

I guess since I couldnt afford treatment this month anyway, it's at least not taking that from me? Weird that the silver lining is I'm already too poor for medical care.

Routines just don't work for neurodivergent minds, but we can build rituals to help us get into a writing mindset. This week's Patreon post is all about rituals to get more words down more consistently!

And subscribing to my Patreon helps me get chemo—win-win!

My favorite moment of today was verifying my identity on Patreon because I have some spiiiiicy things to share soon 👀

I've booked 13 new projects already this year. When I say I book up fast, I mean it! If you're interested in working with me, fill out the form on my site asap, and we'll see if we're a good fit.

(Yes, you can reach out before the book is done and ready.)

I'm excited to hear about your story!

I'm probably late to this for the day, but let's play??
January 12, 2026 at 12:41 AM
I have tiny TBR space and would love to hear about something/someone new if possible. Please send recommendations for...

Short stories, preferably by marginalized authors.
Bonus points for very high heat and/or horror.
Cozy horror will get you a medal.

Self-pub always preferred but not required.

We had to go into small-town, rural New Mexico today, and even here, there are anti-ICE rallies. Love to see it.
January 10, 2026 at 8:02 PM
I dont have the immune system to attend a rally, and there are lots of valid reasons someone might to be able to go. But that doesn't mean you cant help:

• calls/emails to press local officials into saying no to ICE
• mutual aid/donations
• spread the word, donate signs
• honk when you drive past

THE SEXY ART I JUST GOT IS AMAZING 😭😭

My patrons will get to see it later this month. Everyone else will have to wait muuuuch longer.

I...will be swooning over it forever 🥵

Things are going well with my readers and Star-Crossed WIP 😂
January 9, 2026 at 2:51 PM
I am not looking forward to the rest of 2026, but getting to work with my local community to rally and ready for ICE gives me a little hope.
January 8, 2026 at 7:29 PM
Finished the final draft of Star-Crossed WIP book 2 (final for now at least). Now, it'll take a little nap before I do some edits and then send it off to @ghargravewrites.bsky.social to rip apart!

And in the meantime, I'm gonna start working on book 3 AND some NSFW art is on the way 👀
January 8, 2026 at 4:04 PM
I really really really wanna go take a walk and read, but it could start snowing any second. Wheelchairs in snow are even worse than getting caught on your feet...but I wanna!!!

Someone make this decision for me 😭

I know my job is exactly what I belong doing because when my anxiety ramps up at night, I work to relax. It soothes me to dive into your stories; it makes my mind and body fit again to deal with your commas!

Hi, my name is Charlie, and I am obsessed with being an editor 😍
January 7, 2026 at 3:05 AM
It's 2026, and you are writers who know lots of words, so let's get rid of some ableist ones:

Deaf and blind as synonyms for ignorant ("fell on deaf ears" or "turned a blind eye to").

Crutch as a bad thing.

Crippled as a synonym for broken.

Crazy / insane / psycho when you mean bad/evil.
January 6, 2026 at 5:11 PM
On my Patreon, I don't just teach you how to edit your books; I throw open the cover, spread out the notes, and show you my entire self-editing process.

I...did not take warnings about black widow spider symptoms seriously enough 🤣😭 It's been just under 48 hours and I am only now regaining control of my leg, the pain only now becoming manageable.

Everything I already deal with, I thought this would be a drop in the bucket.

I was wrong lol
