πŸ¦‹πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ How it feels to read Imago and More Ephemera Stories πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈπŸ¦‹ #scifi #scifibooks #books #sciencefiction #booksky

#horrorwriterschat The wolf in sheep’s clothing! I took it in a certain tongue in cheek direction in Do I Terrify? in a story called Blood of the Lamb. The MC is a farmer who keeps finding coyotes (or what’s left of them) laying around his sheep pasture. What could be doing it I wonder? πŸ€”

πŸ¦‹πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ A little blurb carousel for Imago, the main novella of Imago and More Ephemera Stories! If you were a Typhoid Mary-esque carrier in indefinite quarantine, would you seek companionship in a life-like android? What if you knew it was being controlled by a living person? Could you fall in love?

Centipedes are highly misunderstood creatures, so I’m really happy to hear multiple requests on drawing those beautiful danger noodles (leggy version)! Their β€œfangs” are actually a pair of modified legs, and those curly antennae are my favorite parts

New challenge: Post 1 sentence a day from any project for 20 days. No explanations & no judgement. (1/20) βœ¨πŸ“š πŸ’™ β€œAs I said, you were already dead.” #booksky #writing #writesky

πŸŒˆπŸ“š Calling All Bookworms! πŸ“šπŸ’™ My newest book has just emerged and I want to help it grow and spread its wings! If you’d like a free digital review copy (no time frame obligation/pressure) please let me know and I’ll send it your way! #booksky #readers #books #bookreviews

Writers! If your book/WIP had a soundtrack, what’s at least one song that would be on it? Is it the lyrics, the vibe, both, neither? For Imago, the song The Pioneers by Bloc Party was a foundational text. Their music and lyrics have always struck me! #writer #writerquestions #soundtrack #WIP

Writers, name five of the authors who most impacted your writing style or philosophy: Ray Bradbury Rod Serling Ursula K. Le Guin Emily Dickinson Sylvia Plath

FUCK IT MY NEBULA AWARD WINNING QUEER LI'L MG FANTASY NOVEL IS ON SALE FOR 99C FOR THE REST OF THE MONTH books2read.com/u/b6J2E0 AND ON ITCH vriccithode.itch.io/the-young-ne...

Wanted to post this digital art my partner made and I’m just so obsessed with. He’s not on BSky so if you wouldn’t mind giving some words of encouragement for me to pass on, he’s still in the early stages and trying to get comfortable with sharing his work! Tentatively titled β€œCanvas Call”

In Imago, the MC Hal had a long time partner, Kendra, before she passed to the disease that keeps him quarantined from others. He’s tried Custom Companions that are femme presenting before, but he feels drawn to Jay, a masc android he later finds is being controlled by a person. A good snippet:

#horrowriterschat Hey yall! I’m Clint and I write just about anything & it’s gonna be gay as hell guaranteed. I just released a title so I’m resting a bit, but I’ve got this idea for a queer horror set in 1960s Appalachia that’s been tugging at me for a while, maybe I’ll get some of it on paper!

#horrorwriterschat (UN)Bury Your Gays, a queering of Lovecraft’s Herbert West-Reanimator, is πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆFREEπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ through tomorrow in ebook. πŸ”— in my bio!

#horrorwriterschat When I first sat down to write (UN)Bury Your Gays, I wanted the two MCs to be in-text romantic as opposed to subtext. Instead, they became besties and the story (to me) became much deeper, about the love and friendship between two queer people, even if it gets ugly.

It's Wednesday and it's my turn to host. Hello #HorrorWritersChat coming at you 7pm British Summer Time (that's 2pm Eastern for North America). Four questions about you, horror, and the community Bring out your rainbow flag, we are doing Pride Themed questions this week!

If anybody’s looking to hire an artist, I can’t recommend Pan enough! They are an amazing person in general and they also made my profile avatar, which is beyond perfect for me!

πŸ¦‹πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ Tomorrow’s the big day! My new book is due to release on June 1st for Pride Month! πŸ“šπŸ’™ This collection’s stories all take place in the same world as my book -30-. The next couple days are gonna be the PERFECT time to get a copy of -30- (and all my other ebooks πŸ˜‰) #scifi #scifibooks #booksky

πŸ¦‹πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ The last of the short stories takes place in the not too distant past of the futures explored in the other stories. A man named Moses meets Kitty at his favorite bar and decides to show her a good time. #scifi #booksky #writing #queer #scifibooks #sciencefiction

The Left Hand of Darkness by Le Guin is one of my core writer/personality pillars. The themes of gender/love/sex, the world, characters, all of it just chefs kees πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³πŸ’‹ Kafka’s Metamorphosis is another. I freaking love bugs but more than that, the absurdism, the pathos for the monstrous, so good.

πŸ¦‹πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ This story is about an Ephemera named Bug who has had a 100% rate of clients that have β€œmade it” on their 30th birthdays. They get the feeling it’s only a matter of time…. πŸ“šπŸ’™ #scifi #sciencefictionbooks #sciencefictionart #ebook #newbooks #shortstories #booksky #books #scififantasy

My new book Imago has its first review! It means that much more coming from a fellow writer that I look up to! β€œThe exploration of intimacy, reality, and the fragile, transient nature of life feels both smart and deeply felt.” #booksky #bookreviews #fivestars #bookrecommendations #goodreads

Thank you!!! πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„ If you do ebooks there’s another book set in the same world called -30- that will be free from June 1 - June 5th!

Love this prompt! I could absolutely see a skeletal humanoid that seemingly attempts to replace a lost loved one. It is clearly not them so you brush it off at first. But it wears a mask of their face and has their voice becoming a constant physical reminder of the absence it β€œfills”.

πŸ‘οΈπŸ‘οΈ details! charcoal and digital colour. For black lagoon wanted lots of textured light like in the beautiful underwater sequences in the film. For Frankenstein wanted the monster's scars to look like licks of lightning, raw, searing and painful- he is a sympathetic creature. #art #horror

πŸ¦‹πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ The third story in the Imago collection follows an Ephemera who is housesitting for a client named Alice. This includes taking care of her cat Timbleton and her Custom Companion robot Noah. A unique challenge! πŸˆπŸ€– #books #scifi #sciencefiction #booksky #ebook #novella #shortstories

πŸ¦‹πŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ June 1st is coming quick! Luke, an Ephemera, has taken Brett on as a client, an elderly man living in Sycamore Senior Home. Luke can’t be sure exactly what it is Brett needs, but they’ll have to figure that out together. #scifi #booksky #sciencefiction #scifibooks #ebook #scifiebooks
