iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

This one really hurts. I featured someone only to support their work, and instead of a message or a conversation, I was simply blocked. I’m only trying to do good here. Sometimes that lands harder than the block itself. #Booksky #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #indieauthors #AuthorDiscovery

FFS I’m still writing 2025 on everything! 😳

Reminder for Featured Author Friday If you’d like to be considered, please DM your work or recommend an emerging author. Otherwise, I curate independently Poetry. Excerpts. Short stories. #FeaturedAuthor #AuthorDiscovery #WritingCommunity #Booksky #AmWriting #Unagented #IndieAuthors #DebutWriters

This is how I write my poetry, scraps, crossings-out, pages that argue with themselves until a line finally stays. And you? How does your process look? #poetry #writinglife #amwriting #poetsofbluesky #firstdrafts #Booksky

1/3 Feature Thursday @upfromsumdirt A poet whose work moves by sound and association, where language does not explain itself so much as unfold. This is poetry that trusts the reader. #Booksky #Poetry #BlackPoets #PoetryCommunity

Before we learn to read words, we learn to read beauty. A child holding Miles Davis, already listening for a life. I 💙 this photo! Many could learn so much from this child’s perspective. #MilesDavis #Jazz #Bebop

@jay.bsky.team a little blue birdie told me “reskeet” has been banished to the gates of Musk’s wet dream. Please confirm. As one of the OGs, I quite like the term. 💙🦋

This reads like a sound-driven piece, more about rhythm and motion than explanation. Interesting textures here. P.S. I grew up on Supertramp. Visions of cafeteria food and sticky fingers behind the bleachers.

Not a review. A shrug with credentials. You deserved a reader. #poetry

Today at Author Discovery Poetry Micro Flash Thursday Short work. Small forms. Lines that carry more than their length. Sharing poems and flash pieces that prove brevity can still leave a mark. DM me or I curate. 💙🦋 #PoetryCommunity #FlashFiction #AuthorDiscovery #Booksky #AmWriting

Many have told me I’m only here to charge for services. That’s fucking bullshit. I’m not. They’re running scared — and they know it. #Booksky #WritingCommunity #WritersOfBluesky #IndieAuthors #AuthorLife #AmWriting

Mouse days good night to all loyal followers. 🦋💙 #booksky

My services are free. If you don’t believe in that, if you have a problem with that, or if you’re afraid this platform will surpass your pay-for-play— then run. Don’t look back. Fucking scabs. #WritingCommunity #Booksky #IndieAuthor #AuthorLife #FreeArt #NoPayToPlay #SupportWriters

I’m not collecting followers. I’m writing for people who actually read. If that’s not you, fuck off and unfollow. #WritingCommunity #Booksky #IndieAuthor #AuthorLife #RealWriting #NoAudienceNoProblem

Anybody building in the queer book-o-sphere, this is a great follow. If you’re looking for community, readers, and fellow authors here on BookSky, J.M. Weaver is one to connect with. Wishing you a smooth path to publication. 🌈📚 #Booksky

In 1969, at the height of America’s racial tension, Maya Angelou published I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, a Black woman insisting her story mattered when many said it didn’t. “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” #BlackAuthors #BlackLiterature #Booksky

This is a draft of my poem Mirror Lies. Unfinished. Crossed out. Still arguing with itself. This is what the work looks like before it pretends to be clean. #AmWriting #PoetryDraft #AuthorDiscovery #Booksky

Tomorrow at Author Discovery Featured Author Friday begins. One writer. One body of work. One voice worth knowing. Submissions via DM or I curate. Expect a curated spotlight on an emerging author you should be reading now. #FeaturedAuthor #AuthorDiscovery #WritingCommunity #Booksky #AmWriting

/3 This week’s Voice and Craft Wednesday Winner is Freya Anduin. Her piece stood out for its calm authority, its gentle confidence, and the way it trusts the reader. A voice that doesn’t perform — it guides. Congratulations, Freya. #Booksky #AuthorDiscovery #WritingCommunity #AmWriting

Stay tuned. Something special is coming to Author Discovery later today. A new feature focused on voice, craft, and the choices writers make on the page. Posting soon. #AuthorDiscovery #WritingCommunity #Booksky

I was offered a significant amount for my handle and refused it. I don’t need money. I need a clean ecosystem. #booksky

Actually, no. We don’t charge submission fees, we don’t require purchases, and we don’t run pay-to-play anthologies. That model is exactly what Author Discovery was created to avoid. #booksky We are free! And always will be! 🦋💙

If you have a poem, a paragraph, or a small piece you care about, I’d love to see it. Anything with voice, intention, and craft. This is impossible to curate alone. Submissions are welcome. Thank you for trusting me with your work. #VoiceAndCraft #AuthorDiscovery #WritingCommunity #Booksky

Every once in a while I share something of mine. Just a small moment, a memory, a mirror. Hope you like it. #poetry #Booksky #amwriting #writersofbluesky #Cornerwriter

1/3 Amazon is convenient. But it is not the only place books deserve to live. For indie authors and publishers trying to build something sustainable, there are alternatives that treat books and creators with more respect. The goal is to stop letting one company control the ecosystem. #Booksky

Good morning. Sun up, road open, coffee steady, and “Far Behind” by Candlebox blasting! This song always reminds me that falling behind isn’t failure, it’s just proof you stayed human while the world sprinted. #GoodMorning #MorningDrive #Candlebox #FarBehind #CoffeeFirst #WritingLife #GenX #Booksky
