Today I want to help trans folks survive Well, I want to do that every day but today I want to get a mutual aid thread going If you're trans (and especially if you're also BIPOC or disabled), reply with your Ko-fi/PayPal/GFM and I'll give it a boost Please boost others too!

Since I’ve been getting this a lot - if you feel like supporting me by buying a jersey or something, I would rather you make a donation to Trans Lifeline or The Trevor Project www.thetrevorproject.org

We are launching a GoFundMe for our lovely @zzclaybourne.bsky.social. Those of you who attended the Black Men Reading Speculative Fiction 2 know that he was too sick even to read that night—after all the love & work he poured into organizing it! This is to help him as he recovers! gofund.me/8e2a5252

I’m experimenting with new lip colors with which to confuse and/or alarm my children. I told myself I was going to go for something more natural/subtle, but I keep being drawn to RED

I went for a walk this morning, much to the despair of my sinuses, because it is very pretty out despite being cold as ass. On my way back, I heard a noise like a petulant squeaky toy getting stepped on and looked up to see a majestic hawk(?) of some sort flying over.

I only just realised it's #AromanticAwarenessWeek! 💚🤍🖤 Happy Aro Week from me and Quil! I love being aro! I love platonic relationships! I also need to make more aro OCs because WHY DO I ONLY HAVE ONE?? #AroWeek

Fuck it why not. It was basically HOUSE OF LEAVES in a college campus but much wetter and meatier. #horrorwriterschat

Tell me what's going on in your WIP right now using a GIF

#HorrorWritersChat Thanks, Eryn! This was so much fun, as always. Nothing new to shout about (yet), but my debut, The Shabti, will be out in paperback this fall! Currently out in hardcover, eBook, & audiobook narrated by the most excellent Matt Haynes:

#HorrorWritersChat 40 yo secretary Agnes checks on a reclusive aunt & becomes embroiled in an eerie mystery. Aunt Margaret's being haunted, but by who/what? Agnes turns to the only help she knows: her boss, Hermann, & his friend Dashiel, an ex-spiritualist conman w/a few real tricks up his sleeve.

#HorrorWritersChat My horror is usually supernatural, and always uncanny in some way. I love haunted objects and artifacts. Most of what I write is either set in the past or involves horrors from a bygone era (or both).

#HorrorWritersChat I’d enjoy writing something with Oliver Onions. “The Beckoning Fair One” is such a great ghost story, and it has had a lasting impact on me and my writing.

Hi, I’m Megaera. I write historical supernatural thrillers/mysteries. I think I wrote my first horror story when I was about 18. #HorrorWritersChat

#AskAnAuthor I usually write sober, but I did conceive and write a pivotal scene for my last novel while absolutely zooted on an edible. I was afraid it was going to be nonsensical garbage when I looked at it the next day, but it made the final cut with very few edits!

Post a female character you love.

Someone posted this in a Discord server I'm in, and all I can think of is Oliver and his shades @authorkaraj.bsky.social

My doctor's office has been unusually aggressive about getting me to schedule my annual checkup, and I can't help but wonder if they're trying to get people in to have their health needs taken care of before modern medicine becomes illegal or whatever tf is happening
