I'd like to hope I can pin this somehow.
I've been seeing an annoyingly common trend these days among younger artists. Don't DM people to ask for a commission. It's really bad form, not to mention impolite. If someone loves your artwork, they will ask you. Post on your profile, but don's spam.

There is a great man that the US needs again.

Notice how only Conservatives want another election? Most other Canadians think this is a horribly bad idea. Just pass the budget and hash out the details later!

I'm constantly dreaming of my characters. Often new chapters of my story are written from the dream or dreams I've had previous.

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

Ok, meta question today! Do you think about your characters only when you are writing their story?

Or do you think about them at other times and in other situations, even if you never write about it?

One more reason for Canadians to avoid the US.

If you think all of humanity only descends from 2 people, you're reading the wrong books.

I know that I routinely would get frustrated with Blizzard when they sacrifice mid-game for end-game content. Seriously, why disable all the good stuff? We can't reach end game if you do!

The US is seriously sexist. It's horribly sexist. Everyone outside of the US sees it - but not the American people.

FURIOUS Canada STRIKES BACK at Trump with MAJOR FORCE

The greedy emotional-tweeting moron has tanked the US economy. Some companies are buying in and moving to the US for kickbacks, but I don't think it'll be enough. Not with the current relations with Europe. US exports are drying up. He'll start whining again about a trade deficit soon enough.

The Conservatives whine that we're aligning with China & abandoning the US. Well, the Felon-in-Office did flatly state, repeatedly, that the US doesn't need Canada, doesn't want what Canada has. Then he attacked our sovereignty as he DOES want our resources, he just doesn't want to pay for it.

I'd heard of a few stories of people going to vote, only to be told that their vote at already been submitted by mail.
Near the end of the campaign, Trump started on this line: "I don't want your votes, I don't need your votes, I have all the votes I need."
That should have been a warning...

I'm Aimée and I mostly write contemporary fantasy romance stories in my Arc Universe where magic exists in modern times. The Magical Community lives alongside our own, hiding in plain site or through illusions, slowly influencing humanity through acts of kindness, entertainment, and love.

#Novmemeber 1

Introduce yourself using predictive text. You can try phrasing this in different ways (for example, "I'm ___ and I write about...").

Then tell us what you REALLY write about!

1. Introduce yourself w/predictive text (e.g. “I’m _ and I write about...”)

A prompt game for the month of November, titled #Novmemeber (as in meme). Hosted by @sagetgreene.bsky.social . The bottom says "Have fun, interact, and remember alt text!" There is a silly emoji face with wild eyes and tongue sticking out, and some fall-style leaves in the corners.

If the Democrats win the next election, you need to get rid of everyone involved in Trump's GOP. Everyone.

Many of us are convinced that Trump cheated himself to this term.

My latest two chapters went past non-explicit intimacy. As I'll be introducing a bit more homophobia and later transphobia, bordering on physical assault, I decided to bump Loving Angel to being Adult. It was more than 16+ would allow.
