I'm in the final stretch before major trans gender-affirming surgery, and any book sales will be so helpful in being able to afford this all! Direct sales through TF Publishing are best, but anything will be so beneficial. Please consider purchasing, signing up to Patreon, or sharing this thread.
The USA ripping itself apart would make a fascinating fictional political show.

But the reality is thinking about how many innocent lives are being ruined - or ended - by this incoherent madness. It's horrific.

Is this person DMing me a bot or just not very good at conversation?

The "fun" new game from this accursed timeline!

Spent hours trying to find an artist suitable for a book cover, only to message an artist on a shortlist for an entirely different book, which I'd gone through earlier this morning.

Should have just started there.

The world sucks, but I've made it to 6000 words in a short story, and 11000 words in a novel.

All written since just before Christmas.

So there's that at least.

I know FIFA won't cancel the world cup because Infantino is best buds with Trump, but we can hope the organisation still has integrity.

No, I am not serious.

FIFA hasn't had integrity for decades. If ever.

Cancel the LA Olympics, scrap the World Cup, the United States cannot be a trusted part of the international community so long as the White House operates this violently and with impunity.

The things I want to happen to every American Republican would breach the terms of service of this platform.

This is why he didn't get the Nobel peace prize.

Along with all the other reasons.

Finally got some writing momentum happening at the end of the year. Over 3000 words in the last few days.

Finally got around to having my eyes tested again and got some new glasses.

Making sure I'm going into 2026 able to see things properly!

- Officially launched @tfpublishing.bsky.social with the first new titles.
- My eighth novel - Dragon's Soul - was part of that launch, and my first new novel in nearly 4 years.
- Finally had my gender affirming surgery. While I'm still in recovery, I know that will be a life-changing moment.
Quote this with what you have accomplished in 2025, no matter how big or small

Somehow, it’s been my most productive year as an author.

In 2026 let’s do away with the “shameless self promotion” and go full on PRIDEFUL SELF PROMOTION.

There are so many behaviors in this world to be ashamed of; writing books and creating art and selling and promoting said books and art is not among them.

Say it with me now- placeholder assets are supposed to be bright and obvious so you DON’T ship with them.

Also it doesn’t matter if no ai-generated assets are in the final executable?? The rising sea levels aren’t gonna be like “oh well no one saw that so the climate change doesn’t count”

I just got my first bikini and wow does it give me all of the happy gender thoughts!

Surgery means I'm still not able to get properly submerged yet, but next summer is going to be me thriving with myself!
