The Chosen One Con is now out in paperback via Amazon! books2read.com/thechosenone... If there is any demand for signed copies on my Kofi shop, I'll consider adding them!
A promo image showing the paperback cover of The Chosen One Con and the following text: The Chosen One Con out now in paperback. Two working class men con their way into a televised contest of mages to find the prophesized 'chosen one' in a world of designer enchantments and celebrity-branded potions. “Holy crap there is so very much to unpack and omg the amount of times I said, ‘WTF JUST HAPPENED!?’ towards the end was absolutely just insane. Like when everything goes sideways here it goes sideways so absolutely brilliantly!” -The Book Wyrm's Hoard

Transgender people deserve to have a nice life. That is the entirety of the argument. If you disagree, you’re saying that you do not believe in liberty or justice for all.

Cis people do not understand how much trans people's rights have regressed in just 5 years. 5 years ago, there were none of these restrictions. 19 states banned legal recognition 21 states have bathroom bans 8 states ban gender marker changes on DLs 25 ban gender affirming care for trans youth

After a few years of hard work, The Chosen One Con is out now on ebook with paperbacks to follow soon! Available on Kindle, Kobo, Itch and more to come. books2read.com/thechosenone... But of course, I couldn't publish this book without help, and I have a lot of people to thank! 👇
A promo image for The Chosen One Con, out now on Kindle, Kobo, and Itch. It shows the book cover to the Chosen One Con (a young white man in a trench coat holding a glowing blue potion bottle as though trying to steal it) and the following text: Magic spoke to me, whispering promises of fortune and fame. It spoke when I switched on the old MV and the screen came alive with the blue glow of magic, the faint spark and pop of aether flowing through the cables.

Instead of lowering flags to half mast for Dolly, they should reinstate vaccine mandates. They should invest in public health. They should walk back discriminatory LGBTQ+ policies. They should stop banning books and fund libraries. That’s how you honour her legacy.

Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.

War crimes are war crimes no matter who carries them out, no matter the reason. Human rights are for all humans, even the ones you hate. Anything else - especially from people sitting in a place of relative privilege and safety - is dehumanization and part of the problem.

United we stand, divided we fall. (2024) by @alfredtwu.com #Kansas
Political cartoon showing a line of dominos. The first one is labeled Trans Rights and has a blue-pink-white trans flag painted on it and is tilting. Three people (representing a trans man, trans woman, and person wearing rainbow colors) are pushing back to keep it from falling. Behind it the second domino is labeled "Gay Rights" and "Freedom of Expression" and has a couple, one member of who is pulling the other from behind the domino and walking towards the first domino. The 3rd one "Women's Rights" and "Free Love", a woman is pointing and shouting to rally others behind the domino to come forwards, the 4th one " Free Speech" and "Democracy" and has people peering out from behind it as well as two people running forwards with a piece of lumber, the 5th one "Freedom of Religion" and "Modernity", and has a few people nervously peeking out from behind it, the 6th one is "Literacy". Dominos 7-10 are unlabeled and faded out in the background.   Text on bottom: "United we stand, Divided we fall"
