M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Same. TBH I should probably think about audience more than I do… 110
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 04/10/2026#QueerPrompts I mean it’s literally a sapphic romantasy set in Dante’s Inferno world. Some people are going to be pissed. 😬 010

M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I kinda want Rowan and Ally to dress up like the devil because they’re in Hell 😂 110
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 02/10/2026#FirstDraftFall I’m working on my queer YA mystery. Basically Scooby Doo x Riverdale x Breakfast Club 120

M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It’s been sitting half finished for years now. Time to brush it off and finish it. #WeeknightWriters #FirstDraftFall 270

M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 30/09/2026#FamtastIndiesSeptember All I managed this month was a few pages on a WIP and a few submissions. I’m struggling. 😅 010

M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 29/09/2026#QueerPrompts Rowan’s sexuality isn’t questioned in Hell. Her relationship with Ally is just accepted as a fact and moved on from. 010
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Omg so my prof in Undergrad pulled me aside and challenged me to take a poetry class. I did and ended up completing a masters in poetry. I went back to fiction writing but learning poetry so deeply strengthened my writing. 020

M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 29/09/2026#writingq I found my dream editor! She pushes me to be better while staying encouraging. 151
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 28/09/2026#queerwriters I know I say this a lot but my goal is to survive the week. 😅 030
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 28/09/2026“Home” to Rowan is a concept more so than a feeling. She never felt at home growing up, and now she is in Hell. Eventually, I want her to find home. 050
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Action. Idk why but I am very good at keeping things moving. 010
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Correction: Rowan is actually NOT questioning things to death for once 😂 020
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 28/09/2026#SnippetShare One of many instances of Rowan questioning things to death. 451
Reposted by M.A. RuthShonna White @shonnathewhite.bsky.social · 27/09/2026One of the hardest things about being an author is NOT TELLLING EVERYONE ALL THE COOL SHIT YOU HID IN YOUR BOOK BECAUSE YOU WANT PEOPLE TO DISCOVER IT THEMSELVES. But you are also really passionate about the shit you hid in your book. 2252443
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 25/09/2026So for me, I see a lot of queer YA that’s solely about their journey being queer and while that’s okay, these stories and needed and important, I think we need to normalize queerness by making it a part of character but not the sole focus. 150
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Her destiny. She doesn’t know it yet, but she’s the only one who can defeat the big bad. 051
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 25/09/2026#WritersCoffeeClub The only collab I’ve done is bouncing ideas off each other and giving feedback. I’m not great at sharing the writing lol. 010
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Dumb question: but what does it mean to manage spoons? Is it like spoon theory in mental health? 110
M.A. Ruth @maruthauthor.bsky.social · 25/09/2026#QueerCharaChat Dead people don’t need to sleep. They are in the habit of sleeping when they first get there, but over time that need goes away. 010
