Octavia E. Butler’s novel “Parable of the Talents” depicts a dystopian United States run by Christian Nationalists. Their slogan is “Make America Great Again.” Published in 1998, many years before Trump’s political career, but this poem in the book prophesied Trump. (Poem from @zymplex.bsky.social)

Writing Tip: If you're really stuck and feel like you're in a rut, shake things up. Completely change your routine. Engage different parts of your brain. You're not going to get out of that rut doing what you always do. Do something different! #writing #writingtips #Booksky

Hi Bluesky friends! I've been MIA for a while, but I'm coming back because I have some fun news... I'm helping the Astronomical Society of the Pacific sell/rehome their library because they are downsizing their office space. There are sooooooo many cool finds. I'm going to share as many as I can! 🔭

Did you know when you get a book through a retailer, they keep most of the money & the authors get only a fraction? That's why you need to get books directly from us, 'coz then most of the money comes to us. Take a look at this list and grab a few! #booksky 🖤 📚 🌈 books.bookfunnel.com/authordirect...

People are writing and talking as though Trump's new world order is now a fact and irreversible. Trump is historically unpopular and losing a lot of support from his own base (over the economy, his wars, and his involvement in child rape). Let's not lose perspective.

It still feels surreal that people connected with the first book, and I'd love to give something back. If this post hits 500 shares, I'll make the Beyond The Mark eBook free for all of December. No catch, just a thank you for the support and a push to keep me writing. #Booksky #Author

A stylized cover art for the book titled "Beyond the Mark: Ashes of the Hero," featuring a silhouette of a cloaked figure in a dark, magical forest. The figure, shrouded in shadow, is holding a glowing sword with a vibrant red hue. Intricate patterns adorn the figure's cloak, evoking a sense of mystery and fantasy. The background showcases an eerie forest with bare, twisted trees and ethereal lights, creating a mystical and foreboding atmosphere. In the distance, a castle with spires looms against a pale, glowing sky, adding a sense of adventure and danger to the scene. The title is prominently displayed at the top in bold, stylized lettering, with a vivid gradient effect that contrasts with the darker tones of the artwork. The overall composition conveys themes of heroism, darkness, and a journey into the unknown.
