Hello my friends! Today I have a new painting featured on Every Day Original. I'm super excited as I've been a fan for years. This piece is called "This Cosmic Business", I'm really happy with how it came out. Please hop on over if you have the chance.

Ah, hahaha.

Ok, yes you can write in my world, it'll be fanfic and headcannon. But I don't want to read it.

I have tried and failed to have EU work.
I'm too precious about my stuff, I know that now. I'm a terrible co-writer, sorry to anyone who wanted to write with me.
Okay. #WritingCommunity, would you every let others write in your settings/worlds?

Why/why not?

Under what circumstances/rules?

Hey Bluesky, tell me your favourite movie and why I should watch it.
I don't watch a lot of movies but I'd like to, except that there's so many and I don't know what's good.

It's overwhelming!

Hit me with your recs and why

"Scales and Arabesques” by Lucille Sambo follows a Zimbabwean ballerina whose movements draw on the lessons learned from a surreal encounter with an alien in Paris.

I only write about bad choices but you get motivations.

And for any MAJOR pivotal scenes you'll get both povs and then usually an observers one as well.

Seeing all the sides is interesting. Why do people do what they do and how is it perceived??? This is what I live for.

#SFFChat THANK YOU FOR THE CHAT! Super fun as always

I have a crowdfunder going right now for my latest sci-fi offering, The Lucky Machine. It's a cozy friendship novella with a *hint* of dystopia where a robot befriends a cyborg and saves *him*.

Time is kept the same way.

Everyone has integrated tech in their bodies in the future. So there's a watch on you at all times.

At 4am every morning everyone goes to/is kept asleep. For....... spoiler reasons.

#SFFChat
#SFFChat Q3: How is time kept or measured in your world? If time is the same way as for us, how does magic or technology influence it?

When I write I don't even know what's gonna happen at the end of the paragraph let alone anything else.

But I have had a few scenes/chapters where it happens at a specific time of day. There's a few things that occur in the absolute dead of night and some that are very early morning

#SFFChat
#SFFChat Q2: When you write, do you tend to have a clear picture of the time of day for particularly intense scenes?
November 13, 2025 at 11:47 PM
Hahaha depends on who you ask and when you ask.

Taylah lives outside of time so she goes whenever she wants.

Krythlan's dad is from 130 years in the past - that can't cause any issues surely.

The multiverse teens get to experience so many different versions of reality so 🤷

#SSFChat
#SFFChat Q1: What unique features of day, night, or time exist in your world? OR, how do people in your world think about these concepts (maybe they're sacred, etc)?
November 13, 2025 at 11:29 PM
Ah, you've caught me on a day off.

I'm Jeb, writer of multi pov, queer, idiot plot SFF set in Australia about time travel and the multiverse.

I'm a morning person - I start my day at 6am mostly

#SFFChat
#SFFChat Intro: Introduce yourself and share your favourite time of day (night, day, evening, morning--lunch!). Be as general or specific as you like. (:

Had a migraine yesterday so I called in sick to work today (still not feeling super great)

But, I can feel words brewing in my brain so I may spend a lot of the day writing when I'm not snoozing.

I'm at 12k for the month so far. I wonder where I'll get by the end of the weekend 🤔

Liam and Mike are in a sadomasochistic power exchange and like CNC (there is a sex gun)

Alexander has a spit kink (intimacy with him described by Liz as "very damp")

#TPDox
In the spirit of kink positivity--what kinks do everyone's characters have (if this is something your characters have)?

*Important note: Ace people and characters can and do also have kinks!
