If you see this, recommend a short book. The Chase Begins by Aimee Donnellan is an amazing one. I became an instant fan of Aimee afterward.

So, let me know your favorite trans books that you'd love to see in free little libraries across Texas! (Bonus points, of course, if they're indie. Indie books deserve so much more.) /end of 🧵

Because trans lives matter, and trans people are beautiful. They do not deserve the hate they're getting. 💙🩷🤍 And celebrating pride is suicide prevention.

I have a feeling there's going to be a lot of tension this winter, and I'd like to spread some trans art and some trans joy.

📣Calling All Trans Books!📣 I have one more FLL book scheduled for this year—ace + disability rep!—but for the rest of the year (and into the next one), in honor (/sarcasm) of a certain remake coming out this December, the rest of the books will be trans rep (especially by trans writers). 🌈📚 /🧵

Against a starry sky, it says "Let me know your favorite trans books! (Bonus points if it's an indie book.)" The words "trans books" are in the trans colors, and all the other words are in white. Three dragons (one in each trans color (though the white one looks more gray because it could not get lighter than that)) are also flying around.

👀Still putting queer/disabled books in free little libraries. 🧠♿️📚 This time, I did A Little Less Invisible by Maisie M. Meyers! I kept seeing this book mentioned on my timeline over and over and over, so I knew I had to pick it up. I've heard so many great things about the disability rep!

A white-purple-blue book (called A Little Less Invisible by Maisie M. Meyers) is held in front of a very pink Little Free Library.

I get this question almost *daily* now. "My book is my own ideas. I just used AI to brainstorm." Or "The book is mine. I used AI to edit." Or "I wrote the book, and I had AI translate it." They'll even say, "I didn't use AI. I just used AI to—" Stop. Keep *all* AI out of art.

With Ace Week🖤🩶🤍💜 coming up Oct 25-31st, I'm putting together an Itchio bundle called 'Asexuals on Adventures'. Main criteria: at least one main character is somewhere on the asexual spectrum (aro-ace is fine👋) and see eligibility graphic for 'Adventure'!⬇️ Sign up form: on my discord or I can DM!

Asexuals on Adventures, Coming Oct 19-31st on Itchio.

Ace flag and purple background.

Main text: 'Adventure' for the purpose of this bundle could be of a fantastical, scientific, or other speculative nature, or historical. Ideally it involves travel/ exploration, and may involve quests (from personal in scale, to save a people/ save the world.)

Eligibility & Genre:
At least one Main Character is somewhere on the asexual spectrum.
Plot-central ace (and LGBTQIA+) themes are welcome, but not required.

Adventure. There needs to be a big adventure, ideally one involving geographical travel. Eg. Exploring space/ a fantasy world, time travel, an alternate history, an underworld of demons, a society of vampires. Sexual exploration involving long distance travel and experiences of other places (eg a road trip) is welcome. Murder mysteries involving long distance travel (eg. multi city/ country investigations and some experience of those places) are welcome.

Given Adventure, I'm anticipating Fantasy, SciFi & other Speculative Fiction. Possibly Historical, mystery/ crime, romance, NSFW.

Preorders: Pre-orders are welcome, if your book releases within 5 weeks of the bundle's end date. Please state the release date in your Itch book description, so readers know when they can download your book.

Categories: YA and Adult Fiction, novellas and full length novels.

I am not first and will be far from the last to say this: I have purchased so many books because I saw them recommended or publicized here on bsky. I cannot urge you all enough to KEEP TALKING ABOUT BOOKS. I know it's easier to talk up someone else's book, but this also means you, the shy author.

September is Bi Visibility Month, so perceiving me may be easier, as all bisexuals have disadvantage on stealth rolls until Halloween 1st.

BI REMINDER
💜Bisexual women are still bi even if they're dating men
🩷Bisexual men exist, and they're not "just gay"
💙Ace/Aro bisexuals, & Nonbinary
bisexuals exist
💜Sexual orientation is about attraction, not action
🩷Bisexuals dont need to have dated all the genders/gender identities they re attracted to - to know they're attracted to them

😅I can't believe it's been ten years since I started my first editing internship. Stories have always been a passion of mine, and it's been so fun to help transform so many over the years. 💜

A starry background with some gray mountains in the corners. In the center, it reads "Ten years. 15,000,000+ words edited. 55,500+ pages edited. 235 books edits." There are three tiny gray dragons and six colorful fireworks along the sides.

Also, more and more agents, editors, and publishers are enforcing strict anti-AI policies so you are hurting yourself if you use ChatGPT (or any AI) as a tool.
