Not participating in a pitch event today because I don't understand (or want to associate with) an organization that claims to want to help marginalized authors get published yet insists on keeping a presence on substack. I want an agent, sure, but not like that. #NoSubstack #NoNazis

Not me, recording another podcast episode about one of my favourite movies with @chatzpod.bsky.social !!!

most of a book about The Shape of Water, "..
ting a fairy tale for troubled times. Foreword by Guillermo del Toro, written by Gina McIntyre." The border of the cover features bmphotos and logos from the movie, and a centerpiece drawing of the Asset embracing a woman underwater with hair flowing. Around the book is a microphone, a glowing keyboard, and a bit of background of a second monitor. "cking do it" is visible at rhat screen's right.

Don't forget: this jam allows WIP pages to be submitted and YOU SHOULD. Having any project page in a jam is good for the project into the future and is just a fun way to have folks keep up with your thing. WIP PAGES ARE OK!

No cheating, post your lock screen: Year round, baby!!!! Let's go, Guardians!

A Virgin Android mobile lockscreen with decent 5G reception and meh battery.

12:07 is on two lines in white over a navy blue sky, and the bottom third of the image is a red silhouette of Progressive Field (where the guardians play) with cream-coloured highlights, and an angular navy blue C at the bottom (with the white "phone" and "camera" icons in the corners)

@jlbaseball.bsky.social I have a ? for the mailbag, if you've got room (I'm not a paying listener): Are there other active pro athletes in MLB ownership (i.e. Ward & Kelce)? If so, do you think they're likely to have a sympathetic ear to players' interests and/or meaningful influence at the table?

IT'S DONE! The rough, totally passable narratively but not as much smut as it COULD have, draft of Cryzmis is complete!!! It clocks in at 56k words. I want to give it a quick pass to make sure I haven't missed anything major, I need to rename a character, and then it's alpha time!

Right wing dipshits have created a "wokeometer" app (not linking it), which rates how "woke" things are. The Revolutionary Girl Utena movie, for instance, rates unsurprisingly 'woke,' with a rating of 9/10. But Princess Mononoke rates as 'based,' with only 3/10. The right has no media literacy.

Revolutionary Girl Utena
On the Wokeometer site.
9/0. Woke.

As soon as you spend any real time with Cupid, you know she's going to be trouble. She's lethal and ruthless, and (rightfully) paranoid of unknown people so she sees Krainos as a threat from the moment she hears about him. But Xenon's still gonna do his best to keep this story as cozy as he can. 🐂😤

David T./D.T. Brandt - Settler on Stolen Land @queerpointyears.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

"Does it hurt?" Xenon shrugged with a snort. "Not as much as the person we helped would have." Krainos squeezed Xenon's hand as he continued looking for every hint of... something. Of what? He hoped he'd know when he saw it. "That's not what I asked." "Of course it hurts." #FaveLineFriday

My primary bi boys are Rapuska (Cat/Brat), Xander (Those Summer Nights), and Xenon (Cryzmis)! That's from most to least evident in text. lol For gals, there's Leona from Purr-fect Timing. I think Neven (main guy from the same story) is too, it just hasn't really come up yet.

Some people doing body positivity come off like they fetishize fatness, and tbh if I was liked BECAUSE of it, I would find it really offputting. So when I write Xenon as someone who doesn't see himself as likeable and Krainos as someone who likes all of Xenon, and Xenon becomes not confident in…

Krainos would be running the dyeflower farm back on the island! I think Xenon would largely be doing the same stuff—warehouse hauling, bouncer, etc—just without the threat of state violence looming over his head. 🫠

In most books I do tight 3rd person, usually dual POVs for MC and LI. I've twice done exclusive 1st person stories, but because "decoding" the LI is part of the main plot! DancingWIP is a 1st person narrator telling a story to an audience where he has to narrate 1 event he wasn't pressnt for. …

Krainos lost his training wheels on running his business, sooner than he thought. He feels overwhelmed, and THEN the trade war starts… He copes by taking the advice he got—getting some help from another merchant—but that merchant makes Krainos his mark instead.
