"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring #50501

Why use reliable science when you could just slice yourself up to transition? Right? Right? Unrelated: My book, Moonchild, is out and it definitely has stuff in it. Trans stuff. Gay stuff. Blood stuff. Its good shit. Worth maybe spending a few bucks on~ savikawrites.itch.io/moonchild

Great resource for fellow fantasy/historical writers! I have the bonus of incorporating Edwardian era colors (1900s adjacent!) Adding a resource for these more modern colors too. vintagedancer.com/1900s/edward...

“You actually give a damn, something that’s in remarkably short order these days. So yes, I knew you would accept. Because you’re not a sonofabitch, though you’re doing a damn fine job pretending to be one today.” 🚀✨ #amwritingfantasy
