S.B. Baxter @sbbaxx.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Tim Curry was such a huge part of my personal film canon that it feels impossible to pick just one of his roles or even just a few of them.

S.B. Baxter @sbbaxx.bsky.social · 30/05/2026The result of an entire world bending over backwards and tying itself in knots to appease people who don’t fucking read anyway.

S.B. Baxter @sbbaxx.bsky.social · 29/04/2026There is an organization dedicated to just about everything. With the enshittification of Google I’ve taken to looking for those first because they usually have robust resource pages. For my most recent WIP I found an org just for 1800’s clothing preservation. #CampRevPit #CRPnessie 030
S.B. Baxter @sbbaxx.bsky.social · 28/04/2026#CampRevPit 1. It took over a year to finish world building for this book. 2. I condone everything my MC does. 3. I wrote the sequel on a lark in three weeks. 230

S.B. Baxter @sbbaxx.bsky.social · 24/04/2026I always love magic systems the most. As far as approach goes I usually start with an analog setting and let that inform the rest I like to consider myself a chaotic plotter in that there’s a 50 page outline and extensive world notes and that also those mean nothing drafting #CampRevPit #CRPnessie 040

S.B.
