As I've said before, what we're dealing with fundamentally here, and have been dealing with for some time, is evil. Our political norms and political media prohibit talking about a mainstream political faction this way. But it is the truth. It needs to be known and it needs to be said.

#sffchat Q 4 - Okay, I used this snip from my #spaceopera Thief of Gods for a different writing prompt, but abusive religion is a prominent theme in this book. In this scene, Jaska debates a lowly monk. #sff #scifi #amwriting #booksky

#sffchat Intro - I'm Margaret. I write a variety of genres, including sf and f. I wrote lots of stories as a kid, but the first book I wrote was a fae shifter fantasy romance and while it was mediocre at best, I still love the premise and hold onto the hope I can fix it someday. #sff #scifi

#sffchat Q2: Just saw this come up in my feed. Themes I return to, either purposely or accidentally, include (but are not limited to) the danger of religions, feminism, classism and power dynamics...you know, all the easy, breezy light fare. #sff #scifi #amwriting #booksky

#wipsnips May 21 - This is the one and only instance of "prophet" in Hero at Heart, my upcoming #fantasy #RobinHood #retelling, and it's really out of context, but it falls somewhere near the beginning of the third act. #zombie #apocalypse #fairytale #indie #books #booksky
