Gay Wizards are IN for 2026. Get in on the ground floor, you could not possibly be more chic than Gay Wizards.
I have a short story in Neon Hemlock’s SHATTER THE SUN. It stars Phasian, Paragon of the Seven Veils, known by some as the Peacock Wizard. He’s having a bad time in a very snaky sinkhole!

Ah, the flood of "read more" New Years content is coming. Hobby reading is mostly for entertainment. Do it, don't do it, it's really up to you! I set my reading goal at 1 book per year even though I read somewhere between 40 and 60. Why must I make my enjoyment into an obligation?

Man, I feel like I am the friend with the accessibility tools knowledge sometime. 'How do you read so much?' combination of audiobooks and colored rulers for my e/physical books. 'How do you cook so much?' Combination of sitting down between steps and making sure my kitchen is set up for my needs.

I have not talked much about this publicly, but one grief I carry with me is the inability for my partner and I to have a child. Lack of access to fertility care has put it out of reach, as even my high-quality insurance doesn't cover it. If my state mandates coverage, I would weep with joy.
Virginia helped pioneer IVF — now the state must lead again on expanding access and coverage for family-building care, says Elizabeth Carr, the nation’s first IVF baby.
Urgent action from lawmakers can make fertility care equitable for all Virginians.

"Ten More Tangible Tips for Editing Your RPG Manuscript
"1. Remove instances of here from location descriptions—it’s obvious you’re describing the location already. Instead of 'A hobgoblin hammers iron here,' write 'A hobgoblin hammers iron on an anvil.'
"2. For the same reason, remove instances of this in description entries. If you must reference the entry’s subject, use 'the.' Instead of 'Smoke fills this room,' write 'Smoke fills the room,' or better yet 'Smoke fills the air.'
"3. When writing entries for monsters, magic items, and so on, skip repeating the name of the subject with [X] is or [X] are in the first sentence. Instead of 'VODYANOY: Vodyanoy are froggy, pot-bellied water spirits,' write 'VODYANOY: Froggy, pot-bellied water spirits.'"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ku77xydmphm4eg5jvbgnqo7o/bafkreia6hlg2lyvb25iupssafeg44fqc43sb3a24zjabs7spzz3dt3ojgi@jpeg)
