I have outwitted my squirrels, but it took some doing. Here's what I did: 1) a feeder with a spinning dome buff overhead, 2) hanging off a balcony, 3) dangling from a short bungee, 4) with a separate mesh for squirrels to get peanuts in shells: www.amazon.com/dp/B0BYQCLXTZ

My series got great reviews but really struggles with visibility because it straddles categories on Amazon, and it’s unique, aka a hard pitch. abbygoldsmith.com/majority

I tend to write about characters challenging an evil empire. And I love building systems. So my characters can grow and level up within a system they created, designed to defy and overpower the evil empire’s rigid system.

Daydreaming is a superpower for writers. It can help you outline a story skeleton OR pants a novel, in a way. It's great for turbocharging your excitement for the story, too. Do you #daydream every day? #writers youtu.be/3BlEBqFZcbw #authortube #sff

Well, I only read the first book of the Expanse, and I really didn’t like any of the characters. I actually skipped the first season of the adaptation because I knew the plot and the first episode was boring. But I heard buzz about the show. Yes, it does get really good in later seasons!

Abby Goldsmith @abbybabble.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

Thanks! I could go on… I like the U.S. TV adaptation of The Three Body Problem. Ready Player One was a better book than movie. Outlander started weak as a TV show and strong as a book series. It got weak in later books but the TV show is outstanding in later seasons. The Expanse is stellar.

The Project Hail Mary adaptation is pretty good. Kindred, by Octavia Butler, got a TV adaptation, but they canceled it after one season. Silo, based on Hugh Howey's Wool... ergh. The books are better, IMO. Blake Crouch's Dark Matter is good and the TV adaptation is decent.

Why couldn't I have thought of the tighter plot version BEFORE I wrote 360,000 words? Discovery drafting is a trip. I finally have decent ideas about how to tighten up my current #wip and cut some of the fat, but it would entail a major rewrite. I'm plowing ahead for now. #amwriting

2026, here we come! I'll recommend Apple TV's sci-fi show, Pluribus. You know how I am about hive mind stories. And I'll recommend The Dark Queens by Shelley Puhak, if you like history and nonfiction. It's got a Game of Thrones vibe. www.patreon.com/posts/147441...

When Oag decodes a tome that stumped kings, he becomes the royal wizard. Or? Oag can reject fame & follow a gender-bent elf to a magitech dystopia where university might level him up to a demigod. Power is seductive, but everyone knows Oag is weird. He’s in love with magitech.
