Folks sometimes seem surprised I'm so chill on here, but my mute list is so robust that even tho I follow nearly 250 people, I only see one or two new posts every ten or even 15 minutes in my feed some days 😆

If you're not curating your experience, someone else is curating it for you.

One of the most popular and crowd-pleasing arias in classical opera, "Perché non c'è cibo nella mia ciotola, donna?" tells an emotional tale of a desperately malnourished waif and translates into English as "Why Is There No Food In My Bowl, Woman?"

A weather related migraine stoppered my workflow today but I did finish up some work on a chapter this evening. Migraines suck but naps are nice, so there is that.

BREATH AND BONE is a return to sword and sorcery for me, moving away from the world-shaking events of epic fantasy to the adventures of a smaller cast. The book is from @candlemarkandgleam.bsky.social & the cover, which you get your first look at in the interview, is by @lauragalliart.bsky.social

Tomorrow, our library is celebrating Dolly Parton's birthday. We have pink cookies and cupcakes and there will be Dolly trivia and coloring and no, no one gets to take home the cardboard cut-out of Dolly, it's not ours, but she's been behind the circ desk all week because we ❤️ Dolly.

I am a bit salty about being forced to blog on a Wednesday, but it's good news (mostly)--Amazon has finally been forced to take down the scam Kindle listing for The Demon's Librarian, and the official re-release is now up!

@readingtheend.bsky.social has a great thread here. Her thesis doesn't explain why MM romance is vastly more popular than the FF equivalent, and I think it's worth thinking about given the absolute *phenomenon* of Heated Rivalry (which is really good, and deserves its success).
so in fact I think it is a slightly adjacent thing: the opportunity to explore misogyny and gendered power dynamics in a way that doesn't feel as personally implicating. the power dynamics still exist, and you can still explore them, but just... at one remove.
