Moments ago, Premier Danielle Smith's government made a terrifying decision and introduced legislation to suspend the charter-protected rights of transgender young people in Alberta.

Now is the time to act. Visit www.stop-smith.ca to sign our petition denouncing this draconian erosion of freedom.

✨ ARE YOU READY TO ORGANIZE FOR QUEER RIGHTS? ✨

Anti-2SLGBTQIA+ hate is on the rise in Canada and around the world. We have a choice: to sit back and let others decide our fate, or to come together and decide for ourselves.

We choose to organize.

Today, we're launching RainbowEquality.ca

Trans people need more support than ever. There's no such thing as a silent ally.

My daughter's third Astartha story will be published this fall in @newedgeswordmag.bsky.social
One of these issues will feature the third and best Astartha story to date, "Fury Be My Goddess." With mace in hand and a young trans man by her side, Astartha faces the vile priest Dinosthenes in a battle that will make Heaven itself shudder violently. Back the campaign for NESS 2025 today!
THE CROWDFUND FOR NEW EDGE SWORD & SORCERY 2025 IS LIVE

Three issues - a Sword & Planet special - a New Jirel of Joiry story...

The more re-posts this gets, the more bonus stories will be added to this year's issues!

Trans people exist—and no phobic, hateful, religion-addled bigots are going to change that.

Canada has a long history of global leadership on LGBTQI+ issues, inclusive of supporting queer and trans people fleeing contexts of criminalization and violence. As America pulls back its support, Canada has a moral obligation to step up. Sign our petition now: www.momentumcanada.net/pathways

I just finished reading Spaced! by author C.L. Carey (@mouthygurl.bsky.social). It is designated YA but I, a recycled teenager, loved it. I can hardly wait for the sequel!

My daughter, the author. I am so proud of her. 🧡
Well well well, if it isn't me getting interviewed.
I've had the pleasure of interviewing @breadsonja.bsky.social. We've discussed:

Astartha, sword & sorcery's strongest trans woman.

Blunt, visceral trans stories as an answer to these troubled times.

Writing as an act of catharsis.

Some pretty damn cool authors and other sources of inspiration.
