A reminder that a Kobo ereader is a tiny Canadian embassy in your pocket/handbag that gives you instant access to transgressive thoughts, wild fiction imaginings, and anything else you need to see yourself through these troubled times. Or fast access to delicious pulp when you need a little break 👍

This is Huxley. He hopes you're having a good day, but if not, he’s conveniently right here and an excellent listener. 14/10 (IG: hugoandursula)

"Fear is a strange soil. Mainly it grows obedience like corn, which grows in rows and makes weeding easy. But sometimes it grows the potatoes of defiance, which flourish underground."

So my partner just referred to TikTok as “Around the World in 80 Swipes” and I’m absolutely going to be stealing that one 😂

Ah, the AuDHD joy of being both overstimulated and understimulated at the same time 🙃

I almost made it through the whole of January without buying any new eBooks 😅

In my defence, they were all 99p though…

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #322: Don’t be afraid of failure. Every artist you’ve ever heard of has tried and failed countless times. Failures show you’re trying new things, taking risks, learning. Failure is a necessary step on the road to success.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #1210:
Reading aloud can be the most powerful editorial tool in your armoury. It flags up repetition, overlong sentences, weak dialogue, unnecessary adverbs and lots more. (Just don't use AI to read to you - it's likely to make you zone out instead of concentrating.)

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

All Duck Prints Press e-books are DRM free, for the record. <3

We believe if you buy a book, you have the right to own that book.
Going in to 2025, its important that you *actually own* the queer and trans literature you consume. That's why for ebooks you should always look for DRM-free storefronts like Itch, or an author/publisher's website, where you can buy a downloadable .epub you can read anywhere, and is yours forever
BTW:

When you make purchases on Itch, the files are yours to keep forever. You aren't "licensing" it; Amazon can't delete it from your library.

YOU are part of preserving transfeminine literature, YOU are part of the movement preventing digital book burnings. YOU are fighting censorship & erasure

Just moved over from the other place, so here’s a picture of my in-laws dog Monty back when he was a puppy as an offering to the Bluesky gods!
