I thought it was my only chance to be published, so I used my college fund to pay for sickass art from folks like @oddoblivion.bsky.social, @slimyswampghost.bsky.social who I'm lucky enough to call my good friends

I wrote about leaving the east coast and the disappointment of having a novella lose its home in a piece that's probably a little too honest about me. If you read it, you're lovely. sdnealwrites.substack.com/p/what-a-set...

There's something especially stinky about receiving rejections on a novella that lost its home. I KNOW this book is good enough to be published, it had a contract for pete's sake, the self doubt isn't logical, but it hits hard regardless.

As we're about a week away from opening up I want to clarify: We believe trans kids have a right to exist, no one is illegal on stolen land, and in a free Palestine. This is to say if your socials or story have right wing bs, the sub is getting deleted without consideration or response.

My neurodivergent ass has finally learned that "hit me up if you need anything" and "feel free to reach out in the future" aren't meant sincerely. You people know you can just NOT say that, right? Shit's confusing.
