Do you enjoy my fabric art? A sale or two would be a massive help. Here's a lovely pic of some of the Jeremy Creatures currently available at my shop. Each one is designed and hand-sewed by me and takes many hours to create. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

Here's a lovely pic of some of my hand-sewn, fabric art Jeremy Creatures. The ground is green fur and the background is a beautiful galaxy print fabric. One creature is a gray rock with two different sizes black eyes and a little frown. There's a tall ghost with about 35 black eyes of different sizes and a wide mouth full of sharp teeth. There's another spirit with many eyes, twirly head wisps, and an open mouth with sharp teeth. There's also a ghost with a tiny face, with two different sized eyes and a little frown. There's a black ghost with a gray moon face, their body covered with hand-embroidered stars and planets of various sizes and colors. There's a frowny white ghost featuring embroidered red flowers. There's a super tiny frowny white ghost, and a super tiny black ghost with four eyes and embroidered stars.

Indie Authors, I'm especially seeking more authors in the Asia-Pacific, Africa or Central or South America for my Books Direct From Authors Around the World Blog. Selling on Itchio counts, as well as Payhip/ on your site, etc. There's still room for more indies in Europe & North America too 😉

Good morning. So...I found out yesterday that the surgical center for my upcoming orchiectomy wants $2000 USD paid in full before the surgery. That leaves me two and a half weeks to come up with that sum on the meager wages of an author. So...help? Please? #mutualaid gofund.me/29c2b9b2a

A new sticker design I'll have at Fan Expo in Toronto and Edmonton this year! ;3 #MKart

An illustration done in a lineless style of four Canadian Geese angrily ripping and biting apart the letters A and I. Feathers and chunks of letters are flying in the destruction. Truly poetic.

I have a problem with trans people playing sports: There aren't nearly close to enough of them doing it, and we need to smash down the barriers preventing it, and generally preventing anyone trans from living their best, most fulfilling life. Fuck anyone who wants to stop, silence, or exclude them.

i feel like if you post a negative goodreads review where you say a young adult book felt like it was written for young people, you should have to pay a fine or something.

Some things I did not understand until I was part of the publishing industry: - Awards ≠ sales - Critical acclaim ≠ sales - Almost all authors you see in a bookstore have another source of income, usually large enough to pay the bills - You do not have to publish to be a writer
