Time for a pinned post! I'm an author of YA/NA fantasy and fiction, often paranormal and sapphic. I write slow burns, fluff, fade to blacks, ghosts, magic, dreams, beings of myth, character stories, and happy endings. When I'm not authoring I'm gaming, reading, and doing other nerd stuff.
I've finally started taking medication specifically for my ADHD, and... are you telling me some people's brains just work like this normally?? Seems unfair and rude but okay

My lovely girlfriend (@sialunestra.bsky.social) commissioned this art piece in celebration of how we met. It feels very storybook to say we met as strangers at something called the Wonderlight Ball and that we clicked immediately and now here we are... but it's true! And I love it so much. 😭

One thing I'd like to work on next year is collecting more physical media outside just books. I'm just kinda over streaming and how it's been enshittified. I'm gonna go back to putting discs in a player or firing up a game off a cartridge.

i guess i still have lotr trilogy on the brain but costume armor in films keeps looking more plastic and latex-foamy. its The Odyssey which is fantasy so i don’t care about historical accuracy for design, but armor doesn’t really look convincingly stiff and solid and protective on screen anymore
Now the debut trailer for Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey is out in the wild, age-old debates about “historical accuracy” have reemerged.

New extortion scam email going round (this was received via a writer's website contact form). I've seen a number of these recently but without the money demand; the translation angle is also a new one

My life as a writer is glamorous. I've spent the past two days straight optimizing blurbs, keywords, comps, formatting, and ad strategies. This was what I was always hoping to do as a kid and now I'm living the dream.

Sharing OCs takes courage, I think.
Like, hey here’s this lil guy I made in my head - why should anyone care when the world is already full of characters like Batman, Mario, etc?
But at the same time, you do it coz at least to you, your blorbo is just as impressive (or more) than Batman et al.
