As we approach the twenty-first day of the month of September, I urge you all the remember the importance of being prepared for the alien plant invasion, which will be arriving any day. You were warned.

A thorny vine wraps around the Earth, blood red at the tips and menacing. The text reads YOU WERE WARNED | OVERGROWTH | MIRA GRANT.

We had an incident recently where I was at the bookstore and the staff were discussing local authors. "Seanan McGuire's around here somewhere," said one of them. So I popped out of the aisles and chirped "hello!"

Important to understand that the purpose of these laws is to convert unhoused people into slave labor for the prison system. That's not a side effect, or an unintended consequence. It's the main reason these laws exist.

INTO THE DROWNING DEEP by Mira Grant is only $2 in US eBook format today! That's less than half the cost of a cup of decent coffee for hours and hours of meticulous marine biology research leading you to the horrors of the deep!

Hey, y'all, do me a favor if you see this when you're scrolling: wiggle your toes and breathe in through your nose, square your shoulders back, then drop your jaw to exhale through your mouth. It's a nutty, mean old world out there. You're a good part of it. Please remember.

Sadly, my work ceased to be fiction in 2020, and if reality continues to not only refuse me royalties, but trap me in escalating fascism, I'm all for the corn-fog alliance.

If you're curious about how this plays out, may I recommend the book INTO THE DROWNING DEEP, by Mira Grant?

If your brain doesn't make the chemicals it needs, there is nothing shameful or dependent on getting those chemicals from a doctor. Saying elsewise is saying that glasses, shoes, and clothing are all shameful, as our bodies are not naturally equipped to walk on broken glass without injury.

If Reaganism has lasted through democratic control of Congress and three Democratic presidents- maybe the Democrats aren’t at fault. Maybe they decided they like the system.

genuinely think people outside of America don't realize how big this place is, how militarized and murderous our police are, how little our politicians care, how disconnected and impoverished we have been intentionally made to be, how we still have slavery just with extra steps. we really suck gang

Two days to the release of OMENS OF CHAOS. I'm not nervous. Who told you that? Anyway, two random Seanan Magic facts: 1. I got my first serious high school boyfriend by beating him at Magic daily for a semester. I flirt with FIREBALL. 2. My favorite plane is Duskmourn. Welcome home. Forever.

Just a small reminder that you can still pre-order OMENS OF CHAOS from a store near you, and with the book out in less than a month, you won't even need to wait long for your gratification!

At some point we are going to have to reckon with the fact that in our society individuals taking on enormous unserviceable debt is an irresponsible vice, but finance guys taking on enormous unserviceable debt to buy media companies, then laying the suffering on the workers, is a virtue.

That stage where I'm not sure if I'm coming out of a mental health crash or I'm just in the eye of the storm. But at least my interest in my... interests... seems to be returning. Might also coincide with me returning to working from home.

The horrors persist, but so must I. And my persistence means making sure people know about my job so I can feed the cats, pay the mortgage, and help support the causes I believe in. With this in mind, the reprint editions of IMAGINARY NUMBERS and CALCULATED RISKS are out today!

Ep 301 of Leverage Redemption S3 had a villa in France full of evil billionaires colluding to pillage trillions in public goods who were keeping a small town activist in the basement until they could execute her led by a guy who admired Putin, and we did not, in fact, go hard enough. Apologies.

When people on my side of the political fence get mad at the suggestion of parenthood, it's not the babies we're objecting to. It's the enforcement. Human beings are not livestock, and cannot be bred like same.

LEVERAGE seemed like a silly little show about crime, but it was so much more than. Brilliant writing and execution, @johnrogers.bsky.social at his best, and a cast that must have required a few sold souls. The finale was perfect. So was everything else.

There is no thaw without the freeze. The ferryman will have his fees, So light your lamps and keep them bright Against the cold and longest night. For this we know: the fire burns. The winter dies. The sun returns. And all if we stand, and if we fight, We can survive the longest night.

The wheel turns; the summer ends. The light departs, the cold descends, And we are left to hold the light Against the cold and longest night. The wind that howls around the door, The tracks of snow upon the floor. Reach for your loves and hold them tight Against the cold and longest night.
