Just realized I need to update my pinned post. Available now in one or more bookstores near you! Falling for the Protagonist is a satirical love letter to the contemporary romance genre! I promise those descriptors aren’t mutually exclusive! 💜 #Romance #DebutNovel #BookSky📚

The illustrated cover for Falling for the Protagonist by Bex Goos features a man standing on an open book looking up at a woman falling from the top of the image. There are flowers scattered over the cover and the cover features a sticker indicating the book is signed by the author.

Still patiently waiting to be "left behind" by AI rather than it chasing me across every damn space like a slasher in a low budget flick.

Am I the only one who sees the irony in billboards that feature messages warning people against texting while driving/advising people to keep their eyes on the road?

One day, I swear by all that is holy and unholy, I will remember that I forget things. That’s the only thing I have to remember to live a happy life: I forget things. One day, I won’t be searching for my own Apple pencil that I wanted to put somewhere “safe” from the kids 🤦‍♀️ Friggin #adhd

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks this way. I once warned a woman I’d seen a massive spider drop down from the ceiling and into her bag while she was away. She just laughed and waved it off. I was agog. The screams I would have scrummed if I had seen something like that in my bag 😱

Was it Nod by Adrian Barnes or The Sleepless by Victor Manibo? Total shot (shots?) in the dark, but I do love book mysteries. Figured it was worth a try 😅

This. Should. Be. Illegal. This subscription racket has gotten wildly out of hand. And they know exactly what they’re doing. This is a kids’ mobile game. They are banking on kids begging their parents for all the trains. This is appalling and dystopian. We need to end the subscription plague.

I’m sure this idea has been done, but I sure would like to run an ADHDnD campaign. Everything is improvised. From the campaign story to the player’s abilities. DnD improv! I live for this kind of chaos.

A black dragonfly with green patterns that honestly look like a human ribcage and spine on its back. It is chilling on the wooden step of my front porch. Bright green eyes, too. Does anyone else remember the slightly melted diver guy from the superhero toy short on KaBlam? Action League Now? Just me? Well he looks like a little like the slightly melted diver toy.

I went to a con in London a million years ago and met Anthony Stewart Head. He signed a headshot for me and listened to me ramble and I was so nervous I started crying. He hugged me and thanked me for talking with him. One of the best memories I have. Such kindness. I hate that he’s gone.

I am at the point where I see this screen three quarters of the way through the video and think, unironically, “Oh God they [the government] did something. I hope he’s ok.” So… I hope you’re ok.

If you are in #Edinburgh now or in the near future, you can pick up a signed copy of my book from Book Lovers on Melville Terrace! And if you are not in Edinburgh… I don’t know. DM me and ask for a signed sticker/book plate. I’ll send you one 💜

Available now in the UK! Ebook and audiobooks too! I’m too happy for words. #romancenovel #Romancelandia #romanceauthor

A review of Falling for the Protagonist by Bex Goos featuring the book’s cover, which shows the male main character Will on the right side, looking up at the female main character Emmy who is falling into view from the upper left. Will is standing on an open book that is laid out flat on its back. There are tulips growing out of the book and falling with Emmy. At the bottom of the image is a review that reads “A wildly clever, refreshing rom-com with an irresistible alternate-reality twist.” Below that are five stars and the words Reader Review.

I wish I could rent a screen at a movie theater for a couple hours to hook my computer up to while I’m writing. Jumbo size Microsoft Word. The iTunes library I started cultivating at fourteen in ultra 11K surround sound or whatever. That’d be fun.

Was trying to remember if I’d taken my Adderall today when I looked outside and noted my dog doing his thing (💩). This reminded me that the yard was thawed enough to clean up, so I grabbed a bag and some gloves. Halfway through the task it hit me. Yeah, I took my Adderall today 😅 Just #ADHD things

Searching through my photos and discovered this one, which I had forgotten I made. Does anyone else see Satan or is it just me?

A reflected image of glass discards frozen in water. Kind of looks a little Satanic? But there are also some hearts in there. Just in time for Valentine’s Day!

Fun fact: If anyone ever tells you something along the lines of “Don’t resist. There’s no point in fighting it. It’s inevitable. It’ll be fine. This is for the best” resist the FUCK harder. There is no clearer call to action than someone telling you to sit down and be quiet. 📢🤬

Look… I know this comment is spam. But I’m so incredibly tempted to go full Chaos Mode and approve it anyway. #wordpress #blog

A screenshot of a comment waiting for moderation on my blog. The top says my username, which is BexGoos, and the name of the post the comment appeared on, which is Finally Emptying the Dishwasher. Below that is the username of the supposed commenter (read: Spam Bot) which I censored with a purple line. Then the comment itself, which reads:

I AM GLAD MY EX-BOYFRIEND CAME BACK TO ME AND RECONCILED WITH ME AFTER HE BROKE UP WITH ME 5 MONTHS AGO. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, (THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE), THANKS TO THIS RELATIONSHIP EXPERT…

Finally, the menu at the bottoom gives me the options to approve (checkmark), mark as spam (exclamation point in stop sign), trash the comment (trashcan icon), like the comment (star), or edit (pencil).

Reason 1,928 why I hate ai. The “long document” referenced in the attached screenshot is MY BOOK. I was looking at a PDF of my book to approve proofreading changes. Not only am I disgusted by the suggestion of, “Hey. Reading is hard. Don’t do it.” But also I don’t want ai to read my book! #fuckai

Latest #mixedmedia creation. I am trying to do some basic #kilnforming projects, and… it’s not going well. So I turned a broken project into art using photo editing and Procreate. Finished image is called “Shattered Glass.” Original and edited photos included for reference. #art

A mixed media piece of art created from an edited photograph of broken glass. It is an abstract pattern with lots of splattered colors, mainly greens and purples, with blues and pinks thrown in.

An edited photograph of a shattered piece of sheet glass. Cracks run throughout. The glass is clear, bright green, and purple. I brightened the image and increased the saturation on the colors.

So… TikTok’s automated subtitles are usually pretty accurate. No real complaints. Except um… this last video I made… it uh… did something strange for the last three words I said. Should ask @legaleagle.tv if I can sue TikTok for threatening me. I could use the extra cash 😂 #weird

A cropped screenshot of my phone screen as I was editing the subtitles for my video. I said “It’s my book!” Tiktok said, “Tu vas mourir.” Which seems to mean “You’re going to die” in French.
