After writer's group, I went to the thrift store and found so much fabric. 🤩 (It has already been claimed.) #craftsky #secondhand #sewist

I know this gif is overused, but I am grinning ear to ear in the middle of the coffee shop. This plot is SO GOOD. #writingcommunity #wip

Wild and crazy Friday night. (Or, cozy sewing and watching Rachel Maksy reruns. 😅)

#TBRuary Day 6: Love is Love

I am utterly ashamed to say that other than a handful of tinglers, I have never read anything by Chuck Tingle! This one, Lucky Day, is in the physical TBR next to my bed, so I hope to remedy that soon! (Also, this cover is INCREDIBLE.) #TBR

#tbruary Day 4: Speaking your language

Would LOVE some recommendations! I usually like horror, and I find Japanese horror especially interesting. I'd like to read more of it. On the other side, I do enjoy queer cozy fantasy, too. (The duality of humans!) #bookrecs
#TBRuary Day 4: Speaking Your Language

For today's pick, choose a book from your TBR that's a translation of something originally written in a language you don't speak. Don't be shy about asking for recommendations if you need them!

#TBRuary Day 3: Around the World

I'm halfway thru 'It's Not A Cult' by Joey Batey, which oozes the culture and language of Northern England. It's a brilliantly written and eerie read. I've been a fan of Batey and his music for years. This book hasn't disappointed. Steeped in folk horror! #booksky

#TBRuary Day 2: Racial Diversity

The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones (American Indigenous, Blackfeet Nation). I still can't stop talking about this book, though it's a few years old now. What a chilling but beautifully crafted book-- it still sticks with me! #amreading #booksky

Merry Imbolc to all! (And Lammas to those in the southern hemisphere!) It's hard to imagine spring will ever return around these parts (🥶), but we'll get there! 🌸

#tbruary Day one!

Hello! I'm Jenny, a writer and devoted reader. My TBR is 33 books.

READER Q: So many! Sherlock Holmes stories got me started on reading when I was a kid, so I feel like those are worth a mention.

WRITER Q: Check out The Last Temptations of Iago Wick at the link in my profile!
Welcome to #TBRuary, everyone!

Let us know who you are, what you like to read, and how many books are on your TBR!

#QueerPrompts Day 1

I'm Jenny: queer, nonbinary, happy to be here. I just finished draft 1 on a cozyish fantasy series-starter set in the Lovelace&Wick universe. It's got wlw, a fallen angel-turned-bard, mysterious bad guys, and all in the hip and happening 1980s. Outlining book 2 now. 😊 #wip

✅️ Finished the first draft of a new book
✅️ Continued work on cover revamps for my existing series

Hope everyone is hanging in there! 🙌 #writingcommunity

Gutted to hear about Catherine O'Hara. I'll be listening to Nightmare Before Christmas on repeat. 🖤

"Ethical AI" does not exist. There is no reality where you can have generative AI that's "ethically trained". There are ZERO AI models trained ethically, and there will never be any.

The term has been made up by people who want a pass on using AI. You don't get that pass, slop peddlers.

I finally fixed my broken sewing machine, so what do I make? Ren Faire garb! 🧙‍♂️ This was made using the B4669 pattern from Butterick and old pillowcases. #craftsky #renfaire

"aren't you being a little mean? it's just some ai."

No. We can be meaner. Harsher. More demonic. More diabolical. Humiliate harder. Throw alley-oops and dunk on their pathetic attempts to masquerade as a creative person.

I know audio books aren't everyone's mug of grog, but Travis Baldree does such an incredible job reading his own work. Truly a delight! #amreading #booksky #cozyfantasy

I bought this jumpsuit a couple months ago thinking it would be super fashionable and cool. I have never worn it outside the house, but I've ended up sleeping in it like a onesie. I call it my garbage bag. 🗑✨️

While this draft simmers, I'm taking notes for the sequel. Have you ever been *so* excited to meet a character? I can't wait to tell his story; Mr. DeMille, he is ready for his closeup. #writingcommunity #wip #writesky
