Had a blast at GalaxyCon San Jose yesterday while escorting the hubs around in his Jim Henson cosplay. Steve Whitmire said the Kermit I built was "pretty good" ::squee:: #GalaxyConSanJose #JimHenson #Kermit

This book. This book I knew at a glance from some moment in my childhood, when every library book with a rocket ship sticker was worth taking home. This was my first taste of John Varley's work. This guided me on my path. I can't wait to read it all again. #booksthatbuiltus #johnvarley #scifi

A book titled "The World Treasury of Science Fiction" Edited by David G. Hartwell, which shows a view of an Earth-like planet from a moon-like orbiting body with a galaxy behind them bathed in pink galactic clouds.

Did you know that a D20 + bath salts + time = R'lyehian D20? #DND

A Dungeons and Dragons character sheet first page on a table with a lego minifig depicting a grave domain cleric who enjoys coffee (she'd been obsessed ever since visiting Hupperdook), and a D20 with indecipherable numbers due to the effects of salt on the ink in the engraved humbers.

I submitted a story to Asimov's in January, and today I received the rejection. But it wasn't a form response! "Near miss" is how the editor put it. A NEAR MISS from Asimov's? I feel about as proud and bewildered as these cats when the cup didn't hit the floor. #asimovs #catsofbluesky

A white coffee mug is balanced between a table and the chair pushed in next to it. Two large cats gray and white cats are on the table examining it , concerned and confused.

My fantasy story, "Dance it Trippingly," is available in the latest issue of Luna Station Quarterly (www.lunastationquarterly.com/issues/065/). What could possibly go wrong becoming a drug dealer on short notice?

Sick of streaming video BS (& fascism)? Afraid or unwilling to sail the seven seas? Then thrifting is for you!* Get DVDs, CDs, and even DVD players on the cheap. Own what you love, without supporting the regime and corporate greed. *Also works for books!

This is Spy Van. He inspired the novel I'm editing. Just seeing him makes me remember Boston and Hallelujah the Hills and trying not to slide down snowy hills on those crappy tires. I still miss him.

Where are Kang and Kodos when we need them most?

A shot from a Simpsons Halloween episode showing aliens Kang and Kodos on the stairs of a government building flanking Homer Simpson. They are facing a crowd of people, and Homer has just removed the human masks the aliens had been wearing, revealing that they are aliens to the world.

Found this beauty at a used book store. It smells like the golden age of science fiction short stories. It even has an ad for scientology inside! #classicscifi #usulaleguin #arthercclarke #raybradbury #usedbooks

Just typed the last words on Novel #2, a contemporary, cozy Romantasy. Only 55K words, but I already know what pieces will be needed on my first edit pass. Current mood:

Why do Gobo and Mokey always look at me like parents disappointed in my life choices? #catsofbluesky #judgementalcats

Reading to be a better writer while also avoiding consumption makes for a very eclectic "to read" pile. Also, I had to buy the new Martha Wells book because, well, it exists. #Booktok #queendemon #writingadvice #aniticonsumption #thrifting

Shout out to the person who dared to imagine that a hook supported by two tiny screws in a piece of tinfoil would be strong enough to hold up a purse in every bathroom stall in the United States. #designfail

This one isn't touched up too much. Do you know what it is? #alienworlds #macrophotography #photoinspiration

What is it? Yes, I messed with the photo a bit. It'd be no fun, otherwise. #alienworlds #macrophotography #photoinspiration

I love isolating the weirdest pieces of photos for inspiration. Can anyone guess what this is? #alienworlds #macrophotography #photoinspiration

I just finished the first draft of my first novel. Now comes the hard part: I have to put it away for a month and not think about all 400 things I need to fix in it.

Just got my physical copy of Altered Worlds: An Altered Reality Anthology. This includes my first ever published stories! Three of them! I am more than over the moon, I am flying past Mars and still going!
