I think if you use an AI image to promote a call for submissions, then nobody should submit to your book or magazine or whatever. I also think you should quit. Find something else to do.

I am so sick of hearing “anecdotes are not data.”

No, but anecdotes are signs to *look* for data.

Why the hell are doctors the least curious people in the world?
laurentheflute.bsky.social Lauren the Flute @laurentheflute.bsky.social · Sep 10
I kept having symptoms and doctors always said "no, there's no link between XYZ and endo"

Turns out there's a lot of anecdotal stories linking things, but we don't know because there's been no studies! But doctors are apparently unable to to say "not that we know of" and admit holes in science!

so many of the small indignities of daily life come from us being denied the ability to tell a rich man in a tech company to fuck off. minesweeper has microtransactions. paid services have ads. the opt out says maybe later. the drive thru is a broken chatbot. your car is an ipad. fuck off! fuck off!

this is from a new wip I've started - it's their first meeting! #SapphicSeptember #SapphicRomance #WritingCommunity #Writesky #QueerWriters
A screenshot of text reading: Carmen glanced around the room, then tilted her head to the empty chair beside her. “You can sit here if you want. Unless you don’t like sitting at the front.” Anna smiled. “I like it. I honestly probably need glasses, so sitting in the front is best for me.” As she moved around the table, Carmen removed her glasses. “Here,” she said, “try mine.” Anna raised an eyebrow. “Really?” Carmen shrugged almost sheepishly. “Sure.” Anna smirked, took the glasses, and put them on. The entire world became one big blur and she quickly removed them. “Jesus, your eyes are bad.” Carmen chuckled and took her glasses back. “Don’t I know it.” Anna smiled. She took off her backpack, put it on the back of the chair, and had a seat. “They suit you, though.”

Though trad publishing is my goal, book events and signings have never been something I've thought about.

I went to a Q&A + signings for a local author recently and it was so wholesome and welcoming, so if I ever was invited to stuff, I'd go! #WritingLifeMonthly #TradPublishing #Writesky

My week was actually good! I wrote about 1k for my sapphic YA novel. I also had random inspiration strike for a queer creative non-fiction novel, and I wrote about 1k or so for that, too! I know it's not a lot, but it's more than I've written in a while, so I'm pleased 😊 #queerwriters #writesky

When I go to cons, it doesn't matter how nice the person is. It doesn't matter if they've made something I really want. It doesn't matter if they promise they're trans-affirming. The moment I see HP merch on their table, I walk away and do not give them business.

Find a new fandom.
ripleylacross.bsky.social Ripley LaCross @ripleylacross.bsky.social · Sep 5
I'm seeing and hearing about a load of HP fanmerch at #RCCC that's trying to be trans-positive.

Fuck off with this shit. You aren't cute, you aren't clever, you aren't being helpful.

Find a new god damn fandom.

Please, do not listen to anyone who says we can't win against all this nonsense. Remember the people who fought before you; they didn't listen to those voices, they kept fighting. We have so much because people kept fighting.

So keep fighting, even if it's just something small. Keep it up!

Literally begging authors and publishers to realize that you can't read the end of an ebook without buying it, so burying the content warnings there and only there doesn't help prospective readers. 😭

Can we please understand that readers can skip a content warning section if they don't need it?

It is FINALLY Moth Woods day! You don't know how long I've been waiting to make a post with my squishables 😅

Come for the cryptids and stay for the heartfelt romance! Moth Woods is my favorite mothman book yet. I hope you enjoy it!
