Crow

'We moved back inside his car to the warmth. He kept the lights off, but we just sat in comfortable silence, looking out at the lights below and the stars above.'

'I face-planted into my pillow. Damien’s face wouldn’t leave me. Maybe if I just suffocated here, I would finally stop thinking with my dick.'

Thinking of past relationships, of the guys I’ve been with. They were rough around the edges. Regrettably, I was the person who thought I could fix someone. I pushed so hard to help them, to urge them to do better, to be better, to get help.

This week has been rough. I was proud of myself for hitting 1500 words yesterday. Today, an immaculate 26 words. It's something though, right?

But if I'm not feeling it, if my all isn't in it, I don't write. Leaves too much to edit later. 😋

'My phone buzzed with a notification. I looked at it as if it were a device possessed. I was genuinely scared to go near it.'

'For some reason, I immediately became flustered. Because yes, I had plans. Plans with a certain someone who’s been the star actor in my increasingly graphic fantasies.'

This looks fun!

BREAKING: The Minnesota National Guard is handing out coffee and donuts to Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, after governor Tim Walz called them in to help out.

The good guys!

An office building lit up in the dark with a crowd of people holding signs in front of it.

HAPPENING NOW: A massive crowd is gathered in freezing temperatures outside ICE headquarters in DC to demand ICE OUT OF ALL COMMUNITIES NOW.

I also want to point out my top narrator is Michael Lesley. Wish they would have included it here.

I couldn’t stop replaying our first meeting: the way his eyes darted away from mine, how his words stumbled and crashed into each other when I smiled at him.

"I know I said he seemed broken, and guarded, and while yes, I would pounce on those guys before,” I cringed at my own words, because they rang true, and saying it out loud really put shit into perspective.

Sorry, no. I'd like to keep using my brain and my own creativity. Don't want that going askew.

Cover of This Is How Immortals Die by Nicole Hidalgo, made by David Leahey. It depicts the heavenly beautiful face of a woman (Aphrodite herself), a tear sliding down her only visible eyes, her hair flowing and blending in with the star-studded dark blue and purple cosmos behind her. The author's name, Nicole Hidalgo, is on top, while the title, This Is How Immortals Die, sits at the bottom. Some letters are stylised as Greek letters.

Cover of Garden of Rotten Roses by Nicole Hidalgo, made by David Leahey. It depicts a woman (Aphrodite) dressed in broken Greek armour standing between a garden full of thorns and roses. The woman's hair is the colour of blood, and her face is half-turned towards the viewer, her one visible eye glowing red, her expression angry. The title and author's name are at the bottom, with some letters stylised as Greek letters.

Just in case you want to give publishers refusing queer stories the middle finger, here are two books led by lesbians in a queernormative world where a trans Aphrodite caused an apocalypse!

Admitting to using gen AI for your art or books or music, etc, is like the biggest self-own imaginable. Literally out of the gate you’re telling people you can’t, you care not and won’t even try but want credit anyways. So, like, is it a participation trophy you’re after? I doughnut get it.

A meme of a person holding a mischievous cat in one hand and pointing at it saying “behave” and the cat says “no”

I think Damien might be coming to terms with his feelings.
