Back at the office today after #AFF is such a Crash, I’m exhausted but all I want to do is go home and write, I want to ping all the new people I met and ask them what what ideas have taken hold. I was feeling so down on writing coming into Austin, now I have hope, energy #scriptsky

Hey folks! I know people are stretched a little thin right now but I wanted to boost this fundraiser for @siwc.bsky.social -- which as some may know cancelled this year so as to avoid crossing the picket line for the con hotel staff. (But now they are broke!)

I recently received a note that my characters sound too much alike. What are yall’s strategies for voice in dialogue? Especially if you have several people with similar jobs/backgrounds. #scriptsky #scriptwriting

I’m watching the @nytimes feed of Climate Forward today, and boy oh boy those reps from Microsoft and google absolutely refused to answer the questions. They ARE NOT on the side of the planet. Speaking from Omaha where we are running a coal plant just for your corporations.

Hi friends!
Things are really tight. I had to graduate from a manual chair with power assist to a fully powered chair due to my illness, which means my beloved Colours chair needs to find a new home. It’s powered by the Yamaha NaviOne system, which is fabulous.
Please share.

Unveiling the cover for THE DRAGON HAS SOME COMPLAINTS!
Garrodigh is a curmudgeonly three-headed dragon who pretends to be tame so he can eat for free at the local dragon-riding academy. Unfortunately, the rider he's assigned to is... a lot.
Coming Summer 2026 from DAW (US) and Arcadia (UK)!

HALLOWEEN KIT PREORDERS CLOSE TOMORROW, AUGUST 20!
I think pairing one skein of the kit yarn with two of witch’s brew would make a lovely Arcade Shawl!
What would you make with this kit yarn?

It doesn’t matter if you don’t directly engage with nsfw work, letting a few large companies control what art is censored is bad for *all* of us. (And let’s be real, they’re coming after all queer work as well even if it contains nothing nsfw.)
