Someone got me a gift card for a book store. I think it ended well 😍 #brandonsanderson #oscarwilde

With my recent sensitivity reading jobs, I’ve been slowly getting inspiration back for writing. Now I just need to do it 😅

What’s better than getting a sensitivity reading job? Being asked to give insight to the character art being done 😍 I’ve been working with some pretty incredible authors recently. #Sensitivityreader #deafsensitivityreader

I get SO excited when an author reaches out to me. I love being apart of the process for their novel, and learning about their character(s). I will always be the number one fan for all the authors I have worked with 🩵 #Sensitivityreader #deafSensitivityreader

My review for “a sign of affection” 1-3 by Suu morishita Five star ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ So far I love this story. I’m impressed by the work going into representing a Deaf character. Full review in comments. Contains spoilers.

I just HATE when barns and noble does this. I typically try to go to other places more local owned. But this one book was only available at this specific b&n. I noticed this specific location does this to many of their manga. 😡

I’ll be pausing my current read of “blood at the root” for a short time because I have some sensitivity reading jobs to focus on. And someone has tasked me with reading “A sign of affection” Manga to see if it would fit in a library. I’ll be back! #Sensitivityreader #manga #asignofaffection

I keep finding more and more books that are said to have a deaf character. Best of all they are supposedly LGBTQIA+ so I’m kind of thinking about sharing my wish list. I might actually be able to afford a PO Box soon. 🧐🧐 Has anyone else switched over to StoryGraph yet? #storygraph #wishlist #books

Finished “The taking of Jake Livingston” by Ryan Douglas, last night. Ended with a 4.75 rating and really enjoyed the book :)

Ended up finding some good books to read for black history month. One is queer and horror! I’ll keep you updated :) #darrionwilliams #bloodattheroot #ryandouglas #thetakingofjakelivingston

Need some dark Romantasy? Oooof R.D Baker does not disappoint. I think I’m going to be bust trying to get some ✨proper✨ fanart done for this 🥵 (Check trigger warning before reading) #rdbaker #arealmofdarkfury #dark #romance #fantasy #romantacy #erotic

Oh? I’ve made it to 100 followers? Welcome all :) I’m so happy you’re all here.

I just found out that someone I was close to who had the same disease as I do, just passed away today. One thing that isn’t talked about enough is how often the disability community grieves from those who pass away too soon due to our diagnosis. It’s a kind of grief that most don’t understand.

For black history month I want to add even more black authors and main characters to my list Any suggestions for LGBTQIA+ Horror? (I feel the need for horror??) Gayyyyy (I realize lgbtqia is just right there. But gayyyyy) #bookrecs #blackauthors #blm

If you are a BLACK INDIE AUTHOR, reply to this tweet with a blurb about your book and a link of where to purchase it. If you are a reader please repost this! #booksky #blackbooksky #diversebooks #blackhistorymonth

Happy Black History Month, and yeah, we're still doing that.

3/3 While helping others with their deaf representation I am (trying my actual hardest) to write a book myself. A little background about me #deaf #books #publishing #deafcharacters #background #deafrepresentation #sensitivityreader

These women didn’t sit down, stay quiet, or ask for permission—they broke the rules and changed the world. Role models. We should add Bishop Mariann Budde to the list.

I don’t typically do negative review posts/videos about books. However, the one time I have was purely because I saw so many people saying how much they loved this (truly) problematic book. It is a great example to why people need a deaf sensitivity reader. Idk. Should I post it? Or will I get hate?

I want to make sure my page is as accessible as possible. Which is why when I’m signing, I want to include everything in the alt. But how do we get around the limited text space? Any tips? Or should I just keep adding the transcript into the comments? 🩵 @bsky.app #accessibility #altproblems #alt

Reminding everyone that the Sensitivity Consultant Starter Pack exists. Just gotta ask to be added. go.bsky.app/92T7cw1

Part 2. How to write a Deaf character. I hope you enjoy my sarcastic and oddly accurate examples. (Can we please have more character space in alt ) #deaf #deafcharacter #sensitivity #sensitivityreader #deafcontent

Part 1. How to write a Deaf character. I realize now my text says “asses” 🤭 not “examine” so that’s cool. I hope you enjoy my sarcastic and oddly accurate examples. (Can we please have more character space in alt 🥲) #deaf #deafcharacter #sensitivity #sensitivityreader #deafcontent

Where can we start the petition to make an anime based off the original Pokemon manga, and not the cartoon we endured as children? Loved it back then. But it could be so much more. ( I think anyone who’s read the manga series would agree.) better characters. Better story. #pokemon #manga #anime
