He so wants to inherit a cult that he doesn’t realize doesn’t want him.

Sign of a good joke: Instant anger that you weren’t the one to think of it first.

(Not a kiss of death but always a “Uh-oh…production hell” sign.)

I woke up a published author this morning 🥹

The Aroosi Arrangement is out NOW on Kindle and in paperback!

A purple background with the text "out now in KU and paperback" and featuring the cover of The Aroosi Arrangement, which has two people dressed nicely against the toronto skyline.

(Very limited range. I’m just smart enough to be professionally stupid.)

I am internet trash who should not be taken seriously but I could also write a college thesis on the character of Leia Organa at the drop of a hat. I have range.

Disney keeps expecting TRON to make money like my mother keeps expecting me to call home and introduce my new tradwife, Rachel.

Truth.

Byn McDonald, But Spooky @byn.bsky.social · 4d

Can’t tell you how stoked I am for this one, guys.

Byn McDonald, But Spooky @byn.bsky.social · 4d

Leia has to juggle a dead husband and brother, a son cosplaying her dead Nazi dad, a sand orphan wanting training in a religion she doesn’t really follow and also leading the remnants of a dying rebellion against a galactic fascist government.

Just another Tuesday for her.

I bet a little kiss of atmosphere spray would diffuse the light almost perfectly. For photos, at least. I’m not the world’s best at lighting miniatures. I’ve rigged LEDs with wax paper and/or cotton balls for photos back when I did toy photography but I have no idea how smart people would do it.

Mos Eisley always gets that bright white washed-out Tunisia lighting, IMO.

(Actually, I want that more. Let me be secret trash. It’s my brand.)

Let’s politely ask @philszostak.bsky.social to slide that under @infinata.bsky.social’s office door with no explanation and see what happens.

[Author’s Note: It would just end up in the bin, but I’ve learned to accept dramatic irony as my destiny.]
