I think the painted version of this drawing turned out okay. 👉👈This was done in watercolors, with graphite, gouache and chalk pastel finishing touches.

I wanted to share this amazing new cover for my upcoming fantasy novel. Think Buffy meets Bridgerton but with faeries instead of vampires. Out in June 2026. www.amazon.com/Treason-Magi...

The cover for A Treason of Magic was designed by the incredibly talented Edward Bettison. edwardbettison.com

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

It is genuinely fucking bonkers.
Every once in a while I tell people from other countries about how the health insurance system works in the US and they are aghast. Yesterday a guy straight up didn’t believe me when I said people can die because of not being able to afford medicine. He was sure I meant in the distant past.

For the first time in 111 years, a President is planning to fire a sitting Fed governor—and of course, it’s the first Black woman, Lisa Cook.

Trump’s message is clear: when Black women rise, he’ll do anything to push us down.

Newsflash: we’re not going anywhere.

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.

While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.
