I'm learning to be a little more of a squeaky wheel—to share my wants without feeling self-centered 🫣 Call it manifesting, asking, or simply making my hopes visible Maybe saying what we want out loud is how we find the connections that make it possible 🌈✒️ #AuthorSky #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

#TodayInQueerHistory Sept 29 (1992) Paul Jabara wrote some EPIC bangers. His discography includes the oscar award winning disco track Last Dance, the Donna Summer/ Barbara Streisand duet No More Tears (Enough is Enough) & the ICONIC It's Raining Men. He died of AIDS related complications #OTD.

I think that I've just learned "the grind" doesn't have to mean working on one project nonstop 😄 I've been letting myself follow whatever creative things interest me while the next book takes shape. It most definitely has been a productive year

Every few months, a company becomes the new baddie and the cycle of "switch now" advice starts over. It rarely considers whether anyone follows you there or if the constant uprooting is sustainable. Eventually, creators burn out or audiences drop off 🙃

We've lost some incredible people, each meaning something different to us. Take what you loved and carry it forward—from Dolly's bubbly, can-do spirit to Tim's hilariously sharp wit. Their light isn't completely gone; they passed it along 💖

#TodayInQueerHistory Aug 25 (2026) Dolly was a safe space wrapped in sequins. Her warmth, humour and humanity touched us all; her songs pulled on all our heartstrings. Dolly was an ally, supporting queer rights even after losing a Dolly lookalike contest to a drag queen We will always love you.

Whenever I post about Dead End, I see people who didn't know it was based on graphic novels or that I have a brand new series which has all the same diversity, world-building and heart. Go-Man is inspired by my childhood special interest in Godzilla and Pokemon but is much more than that.
