New account, who dis?

Hello there—I'm Jeannie, writing nearly-always-queer fantasy, SciFi, horror, & sometimes poetry.
My darlings are unapologetic saps who care an awful lot and face off with their demons, both literal and figurative

Accordingly: poly horromantasy coming 2026 🌈🚀💫
Aww yis! My friends know me wayyy too well 😄

There’s a great historical fiction comedy novel about this, in part! Nicked by MT Anderson. Funny, sweet and gay.

Time to call your senators and house reps again and demand they protect healthcare for trans people.

Tucked inside the Republican bill for health care subsidies, a clause that would restrict the money from being used for abortion (with exception for rape, incest or life of the mother) or for "any sex trait modification procedure or service."

If they aren’t a registered charity and they aren’t registered with the Fundraising Regulator (example logo below), it’s probably one of these scammy orgs where the ‘profit’ is a tiny fraction of the money you handed over and some bastard gets rich on your good intentions. Give to a real charity.

Qobuz works super well, and their SOUND QUALITY plus artist compensation? Sold.
Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

Hello, new followers!

Are you looking for a sci-fi YA GN about how being trans is beautiful and queer love is transformative?

How about action-packed superhero GN about claiming your identity as an adult while dealing with depression and an evil trickster god?

'Cause I've written those books!

I cannot recommend these stories enough. They each fucked me up on a deliciously cathartic level.

Wichtiger Erfolg! Mit jedem Fortschritt vor Gericht werden die rechten Netzwerke ruhiger. Gewaltaufrufe, Drohungen & Beleidigungen gehen merklich zurück. Nichts hat zuvor geholfen, erst seit den Klagen wirds besser. Aber der Aufwand ist enorm, wie dieser Fall zeigt:
