I’ve been off of social media for the last three months. I sure hope I didn’t miss any super important discourse or anything 👁️👄👁️

TADAAAA! MY FIRST ANIMATION! 🪨📃✂️🏳️‍🌈 This took forever and holy hell was I not good at it. But despite these six seconds taking up an entire week of my life, I’m so incredibly proud of how it turned out and I can’t wait to finish my next one! #animation #firstanimation #queerartists #lesbianart

A fun little mood board for THIS IS WHERE WE TALK THINGS OUT, my not-at-all traumatizing book about a trip up north, an estranged mother and daughter duo, and what happens when we can’t let go of the past. ALL ROADS LEAD US HOME coming March 2027 🏠 #indiehorror #novella #snowhorror #canadianauthor

Sorry for being MIA last week! I’ve been working on SECRET PROJECT, so I disappeared into the void. This week I’ll be back with another CAN YOU SURVIVE and possibly a newsletter. On an unrelated note, did you know all my books are on KU? #kindleunlimitedbooks #sapphicauthor #sapphicbooks

While I love that people are supporting queer authors during Pride Month, it’s important to remember that we’re still here once June’s over. Reading queer books is a year-long event 🌈 #pride #pridemonth2026🏳️‍🌈 #queerbooks #queerauthors #queerartists

Next book in our upcoming novella series is @pegasusunder.bsky.social's THESE HOLLOW BODIES. This book sits between cosmic horror and the new weird, exploring a fine art ceramicist encountering the otherworldly at an artist residency while at a fictional, unnamed East African coastal university.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a chimpanzee in an enclosure is sitting on the ground and painting abstract streaks of color on a canvas lying in the grass. Panel 2: a couple is standing outside the enclosure, looking in. The girl says about the painting chimpanzee, “aww, that’s cute.” Panel 3: the chimpanzee is alone in his dimly lit studio, head in hands, holding a lit cigarette. He looks completely dejected, feeling misunderstood. There is a pair of glasses, a glass of whisky, crumpled paper, and an unfinished painting laid out on the desk in front of him. The walls and floor space of his studio are covered in his abstract paintings on canvases and paper. There is also a marble sculpture of a banana beside him.

We’re excited because one of us saw a bird and one of us made coffee. Although I won’t say who did what, I will say Diller’s caffeine addiction is getting out of hand 🐦‍⬛☕️ #cats_of_bluesky #indieauthor #adayinmylife🌸 #authorlife

“I can’t,” she sobs. “I have to save you. And I can! This time, I can do it.” Marguerite smiles sadly at her. “No matter how many times you try to save me, Claudine. You never will,” Marguerite says firmly. ✨From IT BUBBLES UNDER THE SKIN✨ #historicalfiction #romancebooks #indieauthor #queerbooks

I am only doing 2 events specific to IT CAME FROM NEVERLAND. This one and one in Chicago. Then, I’m away all summer teaching at writing residencies, attending writing residencies and gearing up for my last semester, Fall, before dissertation defense, and a Fall anthology release. Time moves swiftly.

good practical reflection for artists who feel like whatever theyre making just isnt working is the sit down and VERY HONESTLY ask yourself: what is the gift here? it can be a lot of things. what am i giving to myself? to the world? what feeling? what expression? art that resonates is art that GIVES

We all agree that “Dark Moon: The Blood Altar” feels like Twilight/Vampire Knight/Underworld fanfic, right?

To say I’m proud of this book would be a massive understatement 😭 After a nearly two-year hiatus from writing, I’m excited to send my work back out into the world! LOOSE ENDS is officially out FEBRUARY 2026. Massive thanks to Ross Nischler for this incredible cover 😍

Was I planning on rescuing a cat when I moved to Weifang? No. But when life gives you a crusty, malnourished, ill cat, you take her home, get her healthy, and post her photos 6 weeks later 🐈‍⬛ So meet Diller! As you can clearly see from the photos, her hobbies include sleeping, napping, and resting.

Stop spreading this garbage about em dashes in ACTUAL EDITED PROSE OH MY GOD. Plenty of actual human beings know how to type em dashes! We’re called “writers” and “editors” — maybe you’ve heard of us?
Feline Feces (lib catturd)
@kitttenn.bsky.social

M dashes (the long dash) are a dead giveaway. LLMs love using them for some reason, while actual human beings have no idea how to type that into the computer.
They also love sets of three, overtly parallel structure, and impersonal writing.

Look, I’m sure it says “Rough Draft,” and I’m sure it’s full of A+ horror, but the way Google cut off the attachment’s name makes me think it’s a story about a rough night of passion with Mothman.
