I write short-form horror/sci-fi/lit fic as Maura Yzmore and spicy romance as Fiona Embers.
IRL gainfully employed as a math nerd, and the gains feed my now very big kids. Boring at parties 😬

It’s soft sci-fi/spec fic. And yes, it’s definitely both feelings at once!

New year, more reading! One of my favorites so far was Light from Other Stars by @erikaswyler.bsky.social. If you like emotionally devastating family stories, space travel that is horrifying, and lit-fic/sci-fi blends, go get it! It made me cry in public so you know it's good. #booksky

I like Proud Pink Sky by @redfernjon.bsky.social 🩷
It is a Sci-Fi, Spec Fic standalone, set in Berlin and 'the first gay state'.
I loved all the alternative history and 'pamphlet' excerpts advertising the gay state all thru the story. Brilliant!

2/2 SNW has succumbed to the aesthetic over substance problems that have been glaringly obvious since the Kelvin Timeline. Lower Decks gets it right so often b/c they focus on the characters in the sci-fi. The sci-fi/spec-fic is important, AND the characters are important. It's not rocket surgery.
The best modern Star Trek was The Orville- right up to, and including, the obvious political commentary stuff. Star Trek was conceived as a weird sex show about Men who Manly Scienced, with Women! It has become "But What if Star Wars?!?" Strange New Worlds tried, but. 1/2

I'm good at... umm... drawing anthro dragons and anthro dragons that are robots? I've gotten better at drawing birds in the past year... kinda
I'm also good at airing all my personal problems into a sci-fi self-insert vent-fic that barely gets any attention #whatever

Artists, I think we're all too comfortable sharing our imposter syndrome.
I would love to see you step out of your comfort zone and confidently state what you think you're actually really good at.
No self deprecation, just what you think you're the strongest at
Is anyone brave eniough? 👀

One Piece still taking over my brain regularly. I was reading fic before bed & the result was some kind of sci-fi thriller movie dream with real life characters. Like, Crocodile had a spaceship, there were aliens, a whole side scene where Hancock and Law had to try and escape gov agents.

Hell, Viople invalidates sci-fi settings due to being able to seize control of any technology not overflowing with Chroma Energy, and Verdeen's psychic powers are "significantly weaker" with all this Chroma Energy flying around. It's not a stretch to make crossover fic with an easy Darkbow invasion.

Hey all, I’m June, and I’m a trans femme Sci-fi/fantasy/erotica/romance writer with pretensions of blending and bending said genres. I write because I’ve got to. I started with poetry and Legend of Dragoon fan fic in the early ‘00s, and have kind of just kept going.
