Whaaaaaat the hell is this new torment. As a professional editor, I cannot stress how much I *hate* this

They also managed to keep the blaze away from our—Scotland’s—busiest train station (Glasgow Central), adjacent this fire, which is a Herculean feat.

The loss of historical buildings is a tremendous blow; loss of life could have potentially been catastrophic.

Proud of this city. People make Glasgow

I’ve been really distressed by the enormous fire in Glasgow’s city centre last night and heartbroken for the 30+ small businesses who lost their livelihoods in a matter of hours. At the same time, I’m immensely awed by the labours of our Scottish Fire and Rescue Service that kept people safe.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

Here's a lovely photo of my fabric art spirits. There are six of them. The one on the far left is a white spirit with a gray face, seven black eyes, and a grinning mouth full of five sharp teeth. She has two twirly white wisps coming out of her head. She's sitting on a small pink chair. Next is a black spirit with a gray face, large round golden eyes, and purple lips. She's covered with embroidered purple flowers. She has two black twirly wisps coming out of her head. Next is a green spirit with a red face, large twinkly yellow eyes, and an open mouth with two sharp teeth. He has two green antennas with red veins. He's covered with embroidered red flowers. Next is a pair of ghosts. One is white with a gray face, twinkly black, and an open mouth full of teeth. She's covered with pink flowers and yellow markings. She has two twirly white wisps. Standing on her head is a tiny white ghost with a gray face, pink flower eyes, and a little frown. She has two little arms. Next to them is a black spirit sitting on a chair with a gray face, twinkly red eyes, and a little frown. He's covered with white, yellow and purple stars of various sizes. He has two black wisps embroidered with a line of white stars. There's green fur in the background of the spirits, and they're on a galaxy print fabric.

Meet my newest creations: the Gloom-Wilders. I designed and hand-sewed them, and I hand-embroidered all their flowers, stars, and markings. They're a family of spirits who live in a haunted woodland (haunted because they live there).

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

We're writers, we try to market our books. Its like our third job though, so we're not very good at it. Take pity and at least leave a rating.

a screenshot of zoom with an arrow pointing to "settings" a screenshot of zoom settings with "my account" highlighted and a circle around "view advanced features" zoom on a web browser, with an arrow pointing to "AI Companion" and the first 3 of many AI features listed

PSA to my fellow Zoom users -- it's automatically turned on a bunch of A.I. features without asking you✌️

to turn all 32 of them off, go to "Settings" --> "My Account" --> "View advanced features"

it'll open up your browser and list a SHITTON of A.I. features, many of which will be on (scroll!)

The lessons they've learned from the recent wave of oppression of trans people in terms of public life and healthcare rights is starting to be applied to other groups.

Also I get to work with Jen Gunnels again, and she edited my other Reactor novelette (“Seonag and the Sea-Wolves”), and I adore working with someone who gets my work on such a deep level!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Art Nouveau graphic of an elfy woman with a bird perched on her hand and the text:

New story sale to Jen Gunnels for Reactor: “I Want You With Me at the End of the World” “I Want You With Me at the End of the World”: A Novelette

A story of broken hearts, rifts in the fabric of reality, and healing as human incarnations of a universe experiencing itself at the end of all things. “You pieced yourself back together enough to meet me in this time-space reality; I did the same, dribbling molten gold between my fragments so that when the time came, when you came to me, I could meet you.”

I’m absolutely buzzing today to get to announce the sale of my new novelette “I Want You With Me at the End of the World” to @reactorsff.bsky.social! This story is about fractured hearts, rifts in reality, and trying to heal enough to survive a world crumbling around us.

He spent decades perfecting his voice. Now he says Google stole it. NPR’s David Greene says he was “completely freaked out” when he heard an AI voice that sounded just like his own, and he’s suing over it.

There is no way this is a coincidence. I worked with David at @npr.org, and NotebookLM sounds *precisely* like him, including his conversational cadence.
