Also, hi, hello. I forgot I was still signed in on the app. I had to take a bit of a sabbatical from writing because I was immensely demoralised, but I'm glad to say: I no longer care~ So it's time to party.

Someone once called my work "exquisite" at a café, and I'm sorry but I still think of it fondly several years later.

AI really is just a fuckin toxic poision that infects and destroys everything it touches even for the briefest of mentions, the most trivial of uses. Even if by a single individual in a group who did it on their own accord, one fruit rots and the entire tree must be cut down.

Some very fun sticker designs I did for our kofi postcard/sticker club featuring the eyes of the love interests from @skellygraves.bsky.social's novels, inspired by the lover’s eye jewelry of 18th-century England 👁💖
a trio of digital illustrations of lover's eye inspired emblems similar to brooches or pendants, featuring three different character's eyes.

Thank you all for an incredible #questpit on friday. We wanted to wait a moment to discuss this, but we have been witnessing an uptick in AI usage in our events. We want to state that this is strictly against the rules, and though we function on an honor rule basis— (1/3)

using AI is incredibly disheartening to see as creatives. Your use of AI is harmful to our writing community and not only makes you look like you cannot produce art but steals from artists as well. (2/3)

Switch gears! Take a walk. Read or watch something unrelated. Pick up an different project entirely and tinker with that. I can't force words to come when I'm blocked, but if I put the manuscript down and give it a rest, I reliably get un-blocked! #SummerOfStories

Reminder: if your book has an AI cover, not only will I not touch it with a ten-foot dungeoneer's pole, but you'll get the block that goes with. PAY AN ARTIST. If you can't pay an artist, you can download free art (with credit) from a multitude of sites, and make your own, with Canva or similar.

Blue and naples yellow graphite illustration of a murmuration of birds twisting through a city, from the perspective of looking up through street, surrounded by city buildings. A person is sitting in the lower right corner, looking up at the murmuration passing overhead.
A nude man sitting in a meadow amongst the forest at night, viewer at his back. He is sitting on his haunches, stretching both arms upwards, and has a thin white unicorn horn emerging off his forehead, as well as a thin, whiplike unicorn tail.The Lament for Icarus by Herbert Draper, but different. A pale man with long black hair and large black and white wings lays sprawled across a chunk of rock, speared through by large black arrows where rivulets of red blood run from his wounds. It is night time so the piece is majority blue, snow on the ground, with the forest in the background.
Illustration of a nude woman with black hair, kneeling by the edge of reflective water in the forest. On the top half, billows of smoke and embers surround her, but as revealed by the reflection, she is made of flame and the smoke clouds around her are dark wolves with burning embers for eyes.
