I wasn't sure about sharing this but I'm going to. In honor of Dolly Parton, here is a small section from When They Arrived. A fleet of ships is sent to counter the invasion. One of them is named after Dolly. Its claim to fame is preventing an enemy ship from crashing into the Earth's surface.

Text: The shields held as the three ships went in pursuit of the one burning toward the planet’s surface. The Dolly Parton grabbed it first. The ship’s engines flared as it tried to escape the tractor beam, but The Hydra had slipped around and snagged it from the other side. Gojira deployed its beam from directly above and now the ship was pinned securely between the three of them.

Hey everyone, a quick update here. Due to D2D's policy changes and looking at my own sales and whatnot with them, I have put my money (or lack thereof) where my mouth is and delisted my books. Once this is posted I'll be updating my website links to reflect this. Love you all.

Are you spending your night emotionally devastated by an incredible movie dealing with the realities of soldiers and civilians in post-war Japan? Does it also have a giant, radioactive lizard? Just me?

Had a look at oceanofpdf because I knew it was probably there. My book was out November 1st, on their site November 4th. It's the Kindle version, I think. Probably only took that long because I didn't do ARCs. Still stings. It's been stolen several times over now, used to train at least one LLM.

I really hate that AI has turned the internet into a pit of suspicion. It used to be a place where you could go to marvel at the weirdness of the world and now we have to evaluate every single thing that seems wondrous.

Just to clarify, as I'm seeing a lot of this all of a sudden, but please, if you ever wanted to: -write fic -make fanart -do cosplays -get tattoos -etc Of any of my works, you 100% have my blessing. The only thing I'd do is be absolutely insufferably excited and share it (if that was okay with you).

I was only a couple days old when Challenger happened, but I remember Columbia. When the commentators were talking I'm like 'shut up and don't jinx it!'.

Can you help me get into double digits with downloads of my book during the Indie Visible Charity Book Sale? It is completely free, and a perfect read for anyone living with disability, chronic illness, mental health issues, or neurodiversity. www.indievisibleevents.com

An ebook version of the book The Inadequaxy of Words by Amanda Shortman. The cover is cream with a pale blue splash of colour and a line drawing of a face with eyes closed. There is black text that says: Free poetry book about disability, chronic illness, mental health, and neurodiversity, 30th & 31st March at IndieVisibleEvents.Com. There are arrows coming out of the book to point at various themes - chronic pain, anxiety, isolation, chronic fatigue, identity, unreliable bodies, resilience, and medical battles

Opened my notes app and saw a two word note I made overnight/first thing this morning. I had a dream that someone stopped me while crossing the street in the town I live and told me I was 'etymologically confusing' but did not elaborate.

Today's hyperfocus: chapter headers and scene break graphics for the WIP. Sneak peak below (pardon the picture quality), because dammit I'm going to make something pretty and fancy to put into this shitshow of a world.

A photo taken of a Microsoft word document. The large lettering at the top days 'chapter 8' and the large C has coral, a jellyfish, a starfish, and a shell inside it.

We saw this last night, and Holy shit. Fantastic slow burn horror sci-fi with real love and care for the source material. Looked better effects-wise than some movies with massive budgets. Support the Indies (movies, books, music, etc)!

I saw this last night, and need to share. You should NEVER pay to be involved in clinical research. This is preying on a vulnerable & desperate population of patients, whilst presenting itself as legitimate research. Please do not pay almost £2k to share your genetic data!! #MECFS #LongCOVID

Today is my book's birthday! And we have had an absolutely atrocious week so I have nothing planned for today, sadly. But, if you feel like giving When They Arrived a shot, it's available everywhere, including to request at libraries/library apps and Kobo+. Link in bio.

A graphic with the cover of When They Arrived, a sci-fi novel. It shows tropes inside in white letters. They are: robots, far future, aliens, hopepunk, big ships, sentient trees, LGBTQ+ rep, multi pov, and critiques of politicians, sensationalism, and extremism/fundamentalism.
