I can’t recommend this book enough. It’s so full of kindness with such a big heart. Seeing so many parts of myself portrayed in Greton was so beautiful

Magic, Maps, and Mischief is out on Friday, just in time for #aceweek

As well as being autistic, Greton is asexual. Come and give his story a try :)

Absolutely

It has a very nice ring to it

Looks like the news is out!

Help Raine if you can, she's wonderful and talented. But you probably already know that :)

Delighted to reveal 'Magic, Maps, and Mischief'.

This has had quite the journey to publication. Want stories about neurodivergent people finding one another in a world trying to limit them, writing *by* and autistic person.

I attended a workshop about cozy fantasy ran by @davidgreenwriter.bsky.social at @octocon.bsky.social 2024. Not only was it a fantastic workshop, David described his book as an example and I was hoping I'd see it published.

I'm glad to see that it will be.

This displaced and starving Palestinian woman sheltering at Gaza’s al-Shifa Hospital says she hasn’t eaten in five days, as Israel continues its suffocating blockade on Gaza.

A new game starting soon with an incredible group of players. Reading there back stories it's hilarious. With no discussion between them half the party are Marxist revolutionaries! Gonna be very interesting 😆

Bumping this again!

Hello fellow #ttrpg peeps! Maybe you're a GM looking for a break so you can write and prep a game and want a week or 2 buffer?!?! Tag me in!

Oh hey, remember that thing we talked about at the start of the month where we asked if there are any @cstross.bsky.social fans out there who also like TTRPGs?

Check this out!!

I don't know if there is a more appropriate goodbye to Loretta Swit, than her last scene in MASH in the series finale.

Loretta won two Emmy's for her role as Major Houlihan.
