I still buy music instead of streaming cuz Im old and stubborn. Anyhow, I often give a whole album a shot before just buying one single. So thats why you hear me sigh and go “Oh shit, fml, this is really beautiful, damnit. Boohoo! Do I gotta get the whole thing now?” 💸💸💸

Question for those who have self published. What's the right aspect ratio(s) for cover art? I'm planning to try and make it available across a lot of platforms. #WriteSky

Bop of the day:

I hate this story. It’s dumb. It’s cartoonish.

This is why I had a steady collection of notebooks stacked under my bookshelf. All these scenes with no story to go with them…

Btw I have books!! b2r: books2read.com/ap/8pprVp/Be... itch: beverlyannemichel.itch.io 💙📚 🌶️📚 🌈📚

Ive seen these and I was in awe! This is my Lady!

Jack- Decides how people will respond on their behalf, without giving them a chance to prove him wrong Charlie- Runs hot and cold. Will sleep with someone after breaking up with them. Helena- Antisocial Talia- Breaking and entering Lewis- A sex worker who trusts someone else to vette his clients

Why buying banned books for yourself is not the way but getting your ass in a library board meeting is.

#FantasyIndies In a quiet moment, Kia pokes through Helena’s sketchbook, not realizing it’s private. Recognizing the personal nature of the drawings, she offers to share her poetry with Helena. She rarely shows anyone her poems and the cuteness makes Helena melt.

#QueerPrompts Jack- Peridot Charlie- Sky blue Helena- Black Talia- Blue or yellow Lewis- He doesn’t have a favorite. He likes that the guest room is decorated in shades of blue because guests find it calming.

#FebruaryWorldbuilders The angels have appointed various magically empowered lesser beings to a wide variety of posts, from military style guards to tax collectors. All enforce their roles with magic.

#FebruaryThrills A stray cat adopts Charlie. She calls him Mycroft and he only sneaks into her flat once in a while for food and a little cuddle. Mycroft is a black cat, and he does tend to show up when a threat is on the horizon. She never clocks that, and uses it to tease Jack.

#FebruArty prompt today is #Divide, and I think the juxtaposition of color in this is perfect for it. Birch, Please Watercolor 5x15 #Artist #OriginalArt #ArtGallery #SciArt #Art #BSkyArt #SkyArt #ArtYear #ArtShow #Watercolor #OnlyBeautifulThings #TraditionalArt #Painting

I have a blanket policy of following back sex workers if I'm confident they're not a bot. Hot take: if you have written or write erotica, you're adjacent to or even in the sex work industry, so shouldn't be squeamish about your associations. Sex work is work, performers are people too.

Write the kind of story you want to read. You're going to read the story you write more than anyone else. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

I did it anyways and I don’t think people will like the ending or think it makes sense… But there was a more obvious, angry/defiant ending and then a more positive/wholesome, more “me” ending and I went with being true to me. Plan to submit to some journals tomorrow.

I have dreams of someone creating Helena’s cloak.

The black with pink pinstripes above-knee-length pencil skirt with a satin lace edging that I got from Hot Topic and goes with anything and that Ive had for over 25 years (and now has that one tiny, faint bleach-stain on the thigh so I now keep it in the ‘casual’ drawer.)

I just made the most well-crafted batch of peanut-butter ice cream that I have ever made… so thick and creamy! Unfortunately, I can’t share it with anyone cuz I have Covid and it’s not a cooked item. Ooooh nooooo!

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

How your email finds me.

Please salute my 25 month old daughter who consumed an entire Costco hot dog today. When we told her “we’re going to Costco now!” after her soccer practice, she immediately squealed “HOT DOG” and very much backed that up.

Helena spots an upsetting anomaly on the chapel…

Does this quote have anything to do with my YA fantasy? 🤷‍♀️

#FantasyIndies “Pain” Kia and Helena playfully try to outdo each other running around campus. Helena miscalculates her abilities in her adrenaline rush…

#QueerPrompts In the fantasy, Edgar has my heart. Kind of a himbo. In the mystery, the ex trio are fun and hilarious. In Mudlarks, Jack’s daughter, Morgan, steals the page whenever shes on it.

#FebruaryThrills Charlie meets that… she’s got very pretty peridot eyes, but also, her eyesight is slightly enhanced, as well. Helena finds Kia’s rich brown eyes gorgeous.

Was going to work on my Bradbury-inspired short today, but am getting uncomfortable with how too-close-a-shave my dystopian idea has become. Some of the details now feel less Disturbing Dystopian Near-Future and more Wouldn’t Be Shocked If I Saw It This Morning, Just Disappointed.

It's pretty cool that Eater put together resources for restaurants about how to handle ICE raids

One of the reasons I enjoy nonfiction books is cuz they make me look up unhinged shit like this…

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

Writing the fantasy, which involves some reconciliation with feelings of abandonment, seems to have changed how I engage with my depression and anxiety. Now, I ruminate less on my past and ruminate more on my future. I mean, thats not necessarily better, but it had an effect 🤷‍♀️ Yes, I am in therapy.

My cat is curled in a sunbeam, snoring like “grsnk grsnk grsnk“ and then there’s this little pause and he starts snoring like “snee snee snee” and let me tell you how my heart melted…

Ive said it before but Ill say it again Gardening is a lot of fun and growing things is nice but also you learn a valuable lesson which is: I would absolutely starve to death if I needed to grow all of my own food
