Found a somewhat messy solution by exporting to .twee then just copy/pasting and reformatting, but I'd love to know if anyone has an easier way to do this.

People who are better at Twine than I am: is there a way to export a Twine to .doc/.dox with formatting and headings preserved? I know I can pull it to a .txt via Proof but if I copy/paste the whole thing to a Word doc it doesn't bring the passage headers with it. I tried Google but no dice. Help?

Tomorrow is the last day for this deadly Kickstarter. I wrote THREE of the adventures for this book, so if you like hilarious, chaotic one-shots with a guaranteed TPK (or a slim chance of survival, depending on how you run it) go pledge before it ends! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bea...

Discoverability for new SFF books seems way down these days, especially outside of bestsellers and certain subgenres. I'm noticing this as both a reader and a writer. Great stuff is in danger of sinking without a trace. Please post about new/recent books you love or are excited for!!! I'll start:

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

I'm reading The Works of Vermin and this is the first time in a long time I've had to stop reading to Google a word. I did it at least three times before I was finished with the first chapter. Seems like I'll be learning a lot about bug biology and anatomy while reading this one.

If you've read a book (like, say, THE CALAMITIES) and enjoyed it, a nice thing you can do is leave a review somewhere! And tell your friends, family, and any passersby. And also leave the author a big bag of money and, oh, I dunno, apples somewhere within easy reach. Good apples. NICE apples.

Happy publication day to THE HENCHPERSON'S GUIDE TO UNIONIZING by @marshalljmoore.bsky.social! #TeamTriada #BookSky www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/827691...
The cover for The Henchperson's Guide to Unionizing by Marhsall J. Moore which features a simple silhouette of a Victorian-style house on a red background. Two figures are on top of the house, a taller one and a shorter one holding a shovel. Tentacles poke out of a window, and a gargoyle is on the left side of the roof. A red fist punches out of yellow earth at the bottom of the cover. The title is in bold sans-serif font across the middle of the house. The author's name is in bold sans-serif font across the bottom of the cover. At the top of the cover in white sans-serif font is the tagline: "Workers of the underworld, unite!" The sprayed edges of the book can be seen and feature white lightning bolts and a creature peering over the yellow ground at the bottom. The creature is a red being with a single eye that takes up most of its body; it has two small human-like hands.

I started working on this before my kid was born, so it never got finished....and I forgot to post it lol But anyway I'm enjoying CR4 quite a bit - here's a blast from the past of the soldiers table! #criticalrolefanart #CR4 #CR4Soldiers
A half-finished sketch page of the soldiers from CR4. 

Top left: Thimble, arms crossed, yells "Hey what the FUCK?!" A caption reads "tiny pixie with the biggest mouth"

Middle Left: Thimble buzzing with both needles drawn "I'll cut his BALLS OFF!"

Middle Middle: Julien's hand snatching Thimble's wings "Gah! Fuck you, man!" 

Middle Low: Teor doing a big ol' lion yawn, then licking his lips. Three other soldiers think "hot" - Wick is flustered, Tyranny is smitten, Katt is smug

Bottom Left: Kattigan picking his teeth and looking bored while Wulfric lays his head lazily on the table

Bottom Middle: Tyranny smiling with a mouth full of oni teeth

UNFINISHED

Top Right: Teor, Wick, Tyranny, and Thimble plan. Caption: *intense planning* Kattigan is face down on the table saying "I'm so fucking bored..."

Middle Middle: Teor and Kattigan looking grumpy with their arms crossed. Caption "Power (crossed out) Couple, Bros, Soldiers, Dads?" 

Middle Right: Thimble squeezing Wick's cheeks together, he looks flustered. Thimble "Are you physically capable of shutting the fuck up?!" Wick "Ahm schorry..."

Bottom Right: The crew sleeping. Katt and Wulfric lie on the floor, Thimble curled up on a burlap sack. Wick lies on several bales of hay and Tyranny is perched on his chest "Don't move, Don't move, Don't move, you can't move, Don't move"
