Writing this too late. Being honest: I am dependent on my family because of my disabilities, and I am worried about the future. What does it mean if my support system disappears or falls through? I don’t qualify for disability, but I don’t make enough to support myself. #disability

It’s been so hard to post anything lately. I’ve been so exhausted and depressed. Every time I look at this wounded world, I want to roll up and holler. Not a new feeling, the world hasn’t changed much. Today, I experienced some sparks of joy. I chatted with a friend and wrote.

Niran is a priest of the duality. He also has the unfortunate scholarly obsession with a certain very heretical prophecy foretelling the death of his own gods. He’s a bit conflicted—and highly aware that he’s one accusation away from being executed for blasphemy. #WSPit #W #A #F #LGBT

#WSPit #Q #NA #LGBT The Hand You're Dealt is speculative, steampunk, & sapphic. It has found family and fabulous friendship. There are heists and heirs, moral greyness and actual greyness of smog and the North of England. #writing #writingcommunity

I'm querying The Hand You're Dealt
A speculative heist novel with a hefty sapphic romance subplot

The Hand You're Dealt
1 steampunk world
1 con artist with a grudge
1 rebelling heiress
1 prodigy inventor
1 misfit dandy
And a plot to take down some greedy bastards

The Hand You're Dealt
Is about:
- forging your own way in a world that wasn't made for you
- getting justice and fighting for a better world
- learning to accept the love you're given
And has:
- found family
-sapphic romance
-anti-capitalist themes

The Hand You're Dealt
Setting and vibes
Five photos: one of tge facade of the Sheffield railway station, one of the Kelham Island Museum in Sheffield, with a tall chimney visible, one of a wilting rose bush in autumn, one of Sheffield town hall, one of an old-fashioned interior, close-up on green-and-gold fabric on a wall and athe back of an upholstered chair.

A grieving girl and a duty-bound shinobi are drawn into a generational mystery rooted in the divide between human and spirit realms. As the walls between worlds collapse, they must decide whether saving both worlds means mending fractures or severing them entirely. #WSPit #WIPSnips #Q #YA #NA #F

Text: Yokai mythology, liminal worlds, dual POV, restrained slow-burn. Shadow of the Fox x An Ember in the Ashes x Divine Rivals.

SHERLOCK HOLMES with BEES When a singer with ties to royalty vanishes, it's up to detective Arthur North to find her. But as he digs, he uncovers a plot to turn his people, the bee-like zizzun, into a target for the crown's wrath. Can he uncover their connection before it's too late? #WSPit #W #F #M

A collage consisting of various cut out images:
- An illustration of Sherlock Holmes in his classic deerstalker cap and cloak smokes his pipe in the bottom left
- A honey bee gathers nectar from a flower in the bottom middle.
- Four macarons sit stacked in the bottom right corner.
- Up the right side is a stalk of purple foxgloves.
- The background is split between a pile of old newspapers and a dark alley lit by lamps and neon signs.
- Red stage curtains frame the entire piece.
- Five bee cut-outs (from two images of honey bees, flipped and rotated to various angles) fly around the top of the image.

Come along for an adventure set in a dystopian world with advanced technologies and an authoritarian government. Follow a network of rebels as they seek to inspire an uprising, and topple the regime. An oddly cozy and romantic ride for a dystopian novel. #WSpit #W #A #SF #R #BIPOC #LGBTQ #Dis #ND

On craft: As a Black disabled poet, I often find the rules of craft limiting, ableist, and white supremacist. I know this analysis may make folks uncomfortable; however, I feel the conversation is necessary. #WritingCommunity #PoetryCommunity #WritingCraft #Craft #Race #Ableism 1/7

If a person's support of trans people is conditioned on the surveillance of our personal decisions and limits our abilities to participate in public life, then it isn’t real solidarity.
