Writer of horror and YA fantasy. Crafts dabbler. They/them.
Haven't written many words lately, but I have been working out intricacies of my plot. Hoping that pays off when I actually go to write...

Disabled and neurodivergent folks have always made art, so when you use them as a shield to defend AI and say the “need” it, you’re an asshole on top of a thief. Hope that helps. Have a wonderful day!

When people ask "Where do you get your ideas" I can only think "You mean you don't have them pouring out of you at all times like some kind of creative postnasal drip?"

They keep willfully misunderstanding the issue to confuse good people.

Trans people don’t think this series will be loaded with JKR’s bigotry. We KNOW the money from this series will be funneled by JKR directly into attacking the trans community in the media and courts.

Having a hard time editing my last manuscript, so I started a new one. (While still trying to edit the other one.) Idk why, but I'm so stuck on the first one. Maybe it needs more marinating time.

I see that Cemetery Dance is trending for being late with royalties and shitty to authors. I was around when Chizine went down in flames for similar reasons and let me remind authors that 1) a legit press does not do you a favor by publishing you 2) a press that is having severe money and systemic

Fellow authors, I love you, and I know it feels like we don’t have a choice, but B&N and Am*zon both scheduled sales this week to preempt Independent Bookstore Day, a hugely vital source of income for indie bookstores. Please don’t promote their sales; please promote your local indie this week.

This is an attack on the humanity of American citizens, declaring that some people's existence is a threat to kids.

But it's also a direct attack on the First Amendment as the government is attempting to regulate who is allowed to talk about their lives.

Call your senators and shut this shit down
Sen. Mike Lee has introduced the SCREEN ACT, a bill that applies the "harmful to minors" standard used to ban LGBTQ+ books and resources in schools and libraries... and apply it nationally—to the internet.

Under the guise of protecting kids from "pornography"

Today's boycott is a warm up. It's an opportunity to find local alternatives and check out the library. Nobody thinks that today will solve everything. If you are loudly disparaging peoples efforts to act, you are officially part of the problem.

I know everybody’s activated and feeling helpless and looking for something to do, but *please* be careful about protests where you don’t know the organizers and aren’t seeing partnership with reputable local community organizations and leaders. It’s a good way to end up in a really bad situation.

It's a bad time for trans people now, and it's a bad time for trans literature

Buy trans books, leave reviews
Support trans authors
If you can't afford a book right now, then follow them on social media and amplify their voices

Here's a starter pack to start you off

From a new piece in the NYT. This is why I don’t have patience for his collaborators to “process,” especially since we’ve already known for months. It’s horrific that his agents continue to represent him and it’s horrific that his collaborators stay silent.

Everyone interacts with content notes differently but I just want to very explicitly say that I thought I had braced sufficiently for this & I am still regulating my very physical reactions to it. It's sickening; it's harrowing; it's excruciatingly well reported. But you don't *have* to read it.
I knew this piece about Neil Gaiman was in the works, and still, I felt sick reading it.

If writing your/our queer little books wasn't important, they wouldn't be spending so much energy trying to ban them.

Make it queerer. Make it weirder. I love you all so much.

Speaking of shut the fuck up Friday, I’ve been seeing some people say that the FBI has contacted them for questioning after seeing social media posts, and my extremely urgent advice is that you should under NO CIRCUMSTANCES talk to the Feds without a lawyer.

For some people, this is just an election. For others, it’s a constant reminder that roughly half the country hates you and wants to kick you out or take away your rights or considers you garbage.

Heads up, authors: if you're considering submitting to Hiraeth Publishing, Writer Beware has now heard from two authors whose stories were published without permission or a signed contract. I've also heard from authors who report never receiving royalties for published stories or chapbooks

writing is so funny it’s like “this is my favorite thing to do in the world and my dream” “okay then do it right now” “no thanks I would rather do literally anything else”
