Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on.

Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights.
Block, and move on.

This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

Today marks five months since the release of THE INCANDESCENT. As we swing into the grimmest bit of the school year, spare a thought for the teachers you know, for whom a demon infestation would make very little noticeable difference to the dark tunnel that is the back half of the autumn term.

Yep

Whatever that praying means for you, get it done. That includes scientifically cheering for her wellbeing. Don’t fuss about it, just make good thoughts for a good woman.

A Possible Mistake When Looking For An Agent I Think I Queried a Book That Wasn’t Ready

Did I make a mistake? Querying is so hard! #queryletters #revisions #writerslife #amquerying open.substack.com/pub/lonicame...

The image is an X post by The Bulwark (@BulwarkO ) from 10 hours ago, stating: "I think in a free country we should be able to post onto the internet, 'hey, there are masked agents on Broadway and Vine and not have the government or the tech oligarchs prevent us from doing that.' Shame on you, Tim Cook." The post includes a verified badge and a ship logo.

Apple caved to the Trump DOJ and removed the anti-ICE apps from its App Store. Cowardice.

It's Banned Books Week! (In the US). I was just talking about bans and challenges. I posted another pride flag on my Instagram. I should be posting banned books too. Like ACOTAR and Throne of Glass. Like The Handmaid's Tale. Wicked. The Color Purple #bannedbooks #ireadbannedbooks #freedomtoread

Today’s the first day of Banned Books Week! Take a look at the thread and see if there’s something you can do to protect our freedom to read!

Also, here is a thought: I wonder how much "not feeling like an adult" is correlated with impostor syndrome.

It's not a binary state, and with that said: There are people who never feel like an adult, and there are people who have always felt like they had to be the adult. Neither is better than the other, nor is one always a more successful adult than the other, but you can often tell who is whom.

I opened up the internet to see what’s going on in the world, since I spent most of yesterday focused on baseball. Based on my findings, it’s back to sports, with some reading and writing on the side.

A Study in Drowning? I'm also waiting for A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping from the library.

I still have a couple of hours before my flight boards, so for the next hour or so I will answer questions, what would you ask of me in this liminal time, I am an open book full of answers both trivial and weighty

(also if you don't want your feed entirely full of me, mute me for an hour or so)

I tell people that the problem is not coming up with ideas, I think of a couple dozen of them a day. The real problem is knowing which of the damn things is any good for writing up. Most of them are junk. I have to let them roll around in my brain a while to find out which is which.

one of the things strangers say to me most often is "I've got a book idea for you" or "is that your next book idea" etc. and the urge to scream "IDEAS ARE CHEAP!" is so strong and I never say it because I want to live in a society where people are generally courteous etc. etc.

It's happened more than once, and a couple of times with famous sports figures who I was not aware of. I don't worry about it too much. If you're using standard spellings of names in contemporary settings, it's going to happen from time to time.

Why is renaming a character so hard? (And that's all I have space for talking about today.) #writingcommunity #wip #characternames
