I’m attempting to write a 3,000 word short story for a local contest but I’m struggling on the idea/plot. I have lots of ideas for novellas and such, but keeping things short is hard for me! I had an idea about a vengeful demon but it’s just not grabbing me…

All authors love libraries. All authors want to see their books in libraries. Don't ever feel bad for using a library. You just made every author everywhere very, very happy. Also, request our books in libraries if they aren't there! Be the book change you want to see in the library! ;)

Got stuck on my thesis and needed a break from it so new wip! 😍 High fantasy with themes about coming-of-age, the burden of power, and “how sick are these powers?!”

It’s weird that Helen of Troy being played by a black actress is a problem, but most of the rest of the Mediterranean, Greek and Turkish characters being played by incredibly fair and blond haired people of British, Irish and Scandinavian descent isn’t. And by weird, I mean entirely predictable.

There is nothing inherently wrong with pornography existing, or eroticism, or naked adult humans doing what they please to one another, period. "But the industry-" If you're that concerned about sexual assault, I'd recommend banning a few militaries first.

Speculative fiction fans, can you *please* stop using YA as a way to insult adult fiction? YA isn't devoid of subtext or descriptions. It isn't lesser. If you notice those trends in adult, it's not because YA trends have infected it. And if you notice that in YA, then you need to read better books.

One of these days I’d love to author a canon official/adjacent #Stargate series book I grew up watching with my step-dad, it’s how we bonded in the first few years. Stargate: Atlantis was running and the end of SG:1 was near but the movies were also coming out!

A couple people are asking if they need to play BG3 first, and the problem here is that if you play BG3, this book is “wow, it’s the tragic backstory!” If you don’t play it, the book is “wtf, why did Kingfisher write a book about this vampire being tormented that has such a downer ending?!?”

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

Everything you need to know about me and what I do here! ko-fi.com/rebeccaevita #SFF #Scifi #ThrillerBooks #Fantasy #WritingCommunity #Booksky💙📚

About the author and their books:

(There is a portrait of me with anime blush lines, a happy yellow sun)

My name is Rebecca E. Reyes and I am an author, artist, parent, and I have a great sense of humor, especially in regards to my autism in my mid 30's.

This portrait doesn't set the tone in my books, but it does reflect me when I feel cute (2 years ago).

Right now I have my acne from when I was 15...

All four of my books in both my book series with descriptions.

---

The Sarcophagus of Lamia

The Sarcophagus of Lamia Book 1 has a blonde woman in a red velvet lined escape pod, with a silver implant in her hair.

The Sarcophagus of Lamia Book 2: Soul Survivor, has a red power core (a glowing orb) surrounded by filigree.

The series description is:

Deep space cyberpunk thriller novelettes with beautiful adaptations of famous monsters in a bleak, caste ruled setting.

We follow the skeleton crew of the lab ship, Magpie, as they hit hard times and brush with corporate oligarchies' law enforcement.

They take odd jobs and survive gruesome encounters, but they do it together!

---

Sigils

Sigils of Malice's cover has a magical blue beetle walking on a machine powered by a sparking crystal.

Sigils of Blight's cover is of a lantern with a blue fire in the jungle.

The series description is:

Science fantasy thriller novels within a gilded theocrasy, wearing 1910's pseudo-cyberpunk glitz.

"Those are words." - My Husband

Thalia Clayton, an uncouth crossdressing showgirl, without magic, tries to protect her family from powers above her head. Unfortunately, everyone she loves is mixed in with conspiracies.

After many reluctant partnerships and tested loyalties, it's a good thing she knows many necromancers and priests. Getting out alive may not be an option.
