Don't be fooled by this bill's name-- this is a book banning bill that will exclude LGBTQ books from all public schools NATIONWIDE. Call your congresspeople and tell them to VOTE NO on this nakedly bigoted book banning bullshit. www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

Happy six months to Astrophobia! This book was my first time contributing to an anthology and I think everyone involved did some damn fine work 😌 If you don't have a copy, the curious can find it here: books2read.com/astrophobia

Cover for Astrophobia: An Anthology of Space Horror, curated by vesper doom. An astronaut drifts in a blue-hued starscape. Their screaming face is pressed to the visor of their helmet, and it stretches around their features like rubber.

Parasite is a no go on this (everything would smell too gnarly or wouldn't have a good company tie-in), but for Patron, it'd definitely be with a paint company, so the pages had that fresh paint smell!

It's been such a pleasure getting to work on #ParasiteWIP again! Couldn't resist creating a new aesthetic now that revisions are finished

Important for writers whose books have been used without permission for AI training--this is the class action lawsuit against Anthropic. Find your books in the LibGen database, and fill out the form on the law firm's website.

My physical copy of Astrophobia finally arrived 🌠 All my published stories can now be on a shelf together ✒️ If you like space horror, I would highly recommend Astrophobia!! It came out a few weeks ago and contains 13 very different takes on the genre with some really cool art inside!

From left to right: Solarpunk Anthology from Aner Welten with a green black cover, Astrophobia Anthology curated by Vesper Doom with a blue black cover of a dying astronaut in space, A Searing Faith by Audrey Martin the first book in the Heat Pyre series with a blue, red and pink cover showing a young girl in a dress holding a wooden bird figurine.

Authors Against Book Bans @authorsabb.bsky.social · 27/06/2025

Our statement in response to the Supreme Court ruling in Mahmoud v Taylor. Image thread with alt text. 1/4

Today's Supreme Court decision, though couched in the language of freedom and inclusivity, is a tragic failure for both the right to read and the rights of LGBTQIA+ people. Authors Against Book Bans stands firmly and fiercely against the decision and its rationale. To allow parents to "object" to the presence of positive books about the lives and rights of LGBTQIA+ people is to allow them to "object" to the existence of LGBTQIA+ students, parents, educators, and others in the wider community. You cannot “opt out” of reality, no matter what today’s majority opinion states. These books belong on shelves and these stories belong in classrooms and curricula.

Hey folks, I have a huge request for Pride: Trevor Project is recruiting for a landmark new study. If you are LGBTQ, in the United States, and between 13-24 or know someone who is, pass this along to them. Trevor’s research has led to meaningful defenses of queer and trans lives. Take the survey

Astrophobia releases in 12 days! My story is "To the Crust": When contract miner Mist encounters a fungal slime deep within the crust of the volcanic planet where she’s stationed, she’s immediately whisked away for disposal. The sentient fungus that’s taking over her body, though, has other ideas
