Published my first novel, made my first VN for a gamejam, wrote a bunch of stuff for a different VN, got a new job, (almost) finished both TTRPGs I was running, started learning how to draw, and spent a lot of quality time with friends and family.
Quote this with what you have accomplished in 2025, no matter how big or small
Reading & writing has kept me alive this year.

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

Here’s a guide to what I’ve published in 2025, in case you’ve lost track.

Individual links below but it’s all on itch: danifinn.itch.io

I recently released a queer single player pervasive journaling RPG that incorporates themes of body transformation, horror, and dysphoria/euphoria. It includes mechanics for drawing on your body and incorporating the fiction into your real life. And it's all hand drawn art with natural materials.

Everything I write is wlw at this point, that's a given.

I really love characters who ascribe their circumstances to destiny or fate, to justify their actions, even if it's really just about the choices they made.
Okay #WritingCommunity, what is a gift you give to yourself in your writing? What tropes or details or motifs do you use simply because you love them?

I love the tiny badass woman trope. I include the trope all the time.

I also love roses, and include them frequently as symbols and motifs.

Looking for a sapphic romance to read this christmas?* Try Fractures Between!

mybook.to/FracturesBet...

*this story has absolutely nothing to do with christmas and in fact explicitly takes place at the end of summer. expect wordplay because one of the main characters is named Summer.

Just got back from my very first in person market where I managed to sell 44 copies of Fractures Between, of the 50 I brought. Exhausted, but it was so much fun, and I got to talk to so many cool people about my disaster lesbians.

Been replaying this game together with my household, where we voice all the characters, and very excited for all of them to suffer as I once did.

I've always been a sucker for time loop trauma narratives and In Stars And Time does it better than anything else I've ever seen.

Finished reading @oroboro.itch.io 's new book today, and it's wonderful. Highly recommended for anybody who likes sapphic romance that's both cute and dramatic, couldn't put it down. Normally I don't even read romance, but Beatrice is such a good #writer I made an exception. #booksky

Misericorde is one of my absolute favorites VNs, and I'm incredibly excited to see what else is on offer.

The most powerful narrative device a game can deploy is "throw you back to the main menu but it's different"

Finished UNBEATABLE, and goddamn, what a game. Was crying throughout the whole final sequence. An absolutely beautiful experience. I'm going to be thinking about this one for a long time.

Books have arrived, ready to be sold at a local market! First time I've ever done anything like this, and pretty excited about it.

On that note:

Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.

Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.

Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo
Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"

So....hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book?
