I’m Shreyas. I’m a librarian by day; writer, illustrator, and disaster gay by night. I post about games, words, pictures, creativity, and hearts.
So I looked at the last two Locus Magazine lists of new fantasy releases, and out of the individual novels (as opposed to omnibuses or anthologies), less than a third have a male MC and half of THOSE are het romances. Where’s the male-led fantasy without romance gone?

Next week at D&D I think the party should have a fleeting sighting of Mysterious Red Crystal Sword Lady

Since they’ve already decided she’s up to some shit

I’m thinking Carmen Sandiego, But She Has A Sword

There seem to be a number of Americans who don’t know what to do if they find a book they don’t like at the library.

For them, we wrote this handy step-by-step guide.

So like
How do you tell your guy friend, “I love you—not in a gay way (lowkey in a gay way)—just want you to know my life is better because of you.” We don’t have a good way to tell men that.

I like cooking. I love cooking with someone who can share a workspace with me, though. That kind of space-awareness is a really special, intimate comfort.

I went on trips with him. We'd spend days together for no reason.
He'd pick me up after work for pizza and we'd end up eating breakfast together.
He would put his head in my lap and I'd stroke his hair while we watched anime.
We could tell each other everything.

How do you find a good tattoo artist? I would prefer to work with someone local, but I would travel some distance for work that’s really worth it.

Minecraft is a better Lego game than any of the actual Lego video games

Today's Artfight submission is Adamant Willow for Kess linktr.ee/kess.art, as the 13 of Arrows.

Imagine an alternate-world Tarot with different and bigger suits; here's one card from that world.
