I write queer absurdist smut for people with chronic tummy troubles who are mad at society. More coming soon!

Ok, here’s an excerpt from this novellete.

Basic pitch is an aro lesbian, who has a troubled past w/ partners because they see her as a playgirl, starts using an AI for 🍑💦 and to avoid having difficult conversations with potential partners.

Be kind. Still being edited 😅

Queer Platonic Relationships should be called kewpies (QP) because I think it’d be hilarious to have a non-romantic relationship named after a love symbol 😂

Just thought of a gender neutral way to say ‘short king’/‘short queen’

You’re welcome if you love it, sorry I don’t actually know what I’m typing if you don’t 😂

I'm also noticing an ENORMOUS uptick in the number of people only interacting with the first post in an obvious thread in which the following posts are necessary for context, so consider checking y'all's settings to see if this is on?

You may be missing major parts of people's posts.

My MC is aro, so not falling in love, and the stakes aren’t high enough to be world shaking…

How about we say it’s about falling into yourself (metaphorically) and away from a vice
What are the stakes of your #FirstDraftFall story? Something big like saving the world? Something small like falling in love?

If you're a creator who:

- Takes long break periods
- Creates very slowly
- Has another full time job or engagement
- Struggles with productivity
- Is inconsistent

I'm sorry to tell you...

YOU'RE STILL A VALID CREATOR BECAUSE CREATING IS TIED TO PASSION, NOT PRODUCTIVITY 💜✨️

No matter how hard I try, I have to admit that vibes are not a sustainable breakfast.

Guess I’ll eat something 😭

Explain your WIP badly:

She doinks a computer because relationships are scary.
Explain your WIP badly:

This house is full of bisexuals and some of them are vampires and also everyone's probably gonna die
Explain your wip badly:

1874 New Yorker starts a new job IN Southern Maine and the culture shock of Coastal Gothic threatens to drag her under the waves. Or maybe it's the ghosts or the dead wife or the weird staff or the cute sister or the hot widower or the what the fuck is up with this HOUSE-

Did something happen on Twitter? I left that dumpster fire but I hear they’re some newskies bursting in?

I love bursting ins! Hi new ones. I’m D, a nonbinary writer/gremlin of all things spicy and absurd. What is up? 🥰

Any #transwriters who like weird spicy stuff?

Maybe I’ll share a bit of this novelette I’m working on… just enough to titillate you all, but not reveal the concept 😘
October 15, 2024 at 7:52 PM
Honestly, just forgo this and cremate me. I’m sure it’ll be pretty colors like that science experiment with the gummy bears. 🐻

Surely that’ll allow me to ascend

To pin: Hi! Buy my book? It's a cozy queer slice-of-life portal fantasy novel with a middle-aged Jewish (OTD) protagonist starting anew in a kinder, more thoughtful world. Civics, divinity, alchemy/chemistry, & magic! Friendship, healing from trauma, spinny skirts!🌈📚💙

If you want to make your local cybertruck owner, anxious all you need is a water hose apparently.

Knowledge is power.
I got really sick of the “I saw my first Cybertruck” posts because I already saw pictures and know they look like shit but my brothers and sisters I just saw my first Cybertruck and truly what the fuck lmao what the fuck is that thing

Just because International Lesbians had a day yesterday doesn’t mean your local lesbians don’t need a hug or a serenade. Go love your local lesbians!

So there’s a hurricane that’s so bad they’re thinking of adding a new category to the “how bad is the hurricane” meter & you know shitheads will still say climate change isn’t real. 👻

As an author, it’s easier to converse with the voices in my head than an actual person 👀. They talk back, but my character only say wonderful things 🫠
The weird thing about being an author is that writing a 300-page book is 1000 times easier than convincing one person to buy it.

This is why I’m terrible at social media. I hop on once every 5 days and spew some shenanigans, then go “well that was fun”
Social media is first and foremost to me a place to post silly thoughts about silly things.
