✍️ We're getting very close to 10c/word for our authors, flash fic by @jamesenge.bsky.social for all, and a short story critique from @matthewjohnauthor.bsky.social for the backer whose pledge gets us there...
I'll be on this stream in about 35 minutes with @shaunduke.net to interview @obrackenbury.bsky.social and Molly Tanzer about modern takes on the good old fantasy subgenre of Sword g Sorcery!
Go see Bryan if you are in the area. He is pretty cool
Still on the chai spice kick. A double layer chocolate cake with cherry compote between the layers and a chai cream cheese frosting.
Added a background to this Xena/Callisto piece so I could make some nice prints and I think it turned out PEACHY
This will be an amazing conference taught by some amazing folks in the industry. If you can’t attend please share the post!
Zeynep ain't much for talking. Kawtar wants to be heard *at all costs*.
At the demon-haunted barrier between our world and the outer dark, they found each other.

Thread from last night. I live in KS. It is a state with a small population (just under 3 million). There is a vibrant LGBTQIA+ life here, but resources can be scarce, and a lot of awfulness happened quickly. I will be adding to the thread when I have more information.
Kansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license.
This is pure cruelty.

Yes
My state legislature is trying to strip trans folks like my kid of their rights. I reached out and keep trying to do things about it. I wrote about my experience in @cityweekly.bsky.social www.cityweekly.net/news/staying...
I got a little memorial ceramic made with my old man dog Willie Nelson passed away and it just arrived. It is so perfect. He even has a little Dorito hat (his favorite treat)

Huge announcement: Girl Scouts on our trans girl scout cookies list have sold 250,000!!!!!! Boxes of girl scout cookies, a record for EITM's trans girl scout cookie drive.
Some have only sold 20 boxes though. I put those at the top of the list.
Lets close out this season and make their day! :)
Ah well there is always next year!
Hope you are back at DragonCon this year!
The stories have all been 10/10 and even with me favoring horror the cozy and other types of fantasy have been so fun as well. Also cool to see your guy Neryon popping up in @swordsagainst.bsky.social!
Chain Story is fantastic of course and I am enjoying all of the stories but would love to hear a bit more about how it came to be.
As promised, and in thanks for reaching 8K followers, The Ask Me Anything shall commence!
We'll keep it going until questions run out.
I made mini chocolate crème pies with a chai mascarpone whipped cream

I've loved New Edge Sword & Sorcery since #0, and been in the mag with tales and profiles of Jessica Amanda Salmonson and Janrae Frank.
THIS is my Goatskin's cover year, with this marvelous art by Jimmy Makepeace, and Linnea Sterte for interior art. I hope I've written a story worthy.
Do share.
