Stacey LP - author - sci-fi/fantasy/paranormal

I’m trying to resist the urge to plant another Easter egg in this section of the book… but the siren call is too strong.

Okay. What I just wrote was so unsettling I think I need to sleep with the light on 😬😬😬😬😬

These free events really do SO much for exposure, and I’m really really hoping those orders turn into reviews from here!!!!

Ok so during the Stuff With Fantasy event my eBook for Afterglow Rising From the Ashes reached #1 for Alien Invasion Science Fiction AND Post-Apocalyptic Sci-Fi!! Afterglow also hit #4 for Dystopian Sci-Fi!!!

I was sooooo close to breaking into the Top 100 Free In Kindle Store list, too!!! #252!!

Okay two of my characters that started off as enemies have now become friends and I love that for them.

Front cover of Cinderella is Dead by Kalynn Bayron. Illustration of a Black teenage girl with shoulder length curly hair; wearing a blue ball gown, covered in scratches.

Black queer fantasy rec of the day.

200 years after Cinderella, women live in servitude. Girls are chosen by men at the royal ball, or their life is forfeit. One lesbian girl refuses to obey the system, seeking a different ending to the fairytale.

Full of inspirational rage!

Ok but can we look at my book covers next to each other? 🥹🥹🥹🥹

Did I make a cover for my bonus chapters too? Yep.

Hehe yes!!! It definitely expands the options. And ah…that’s classified 😎

Why do I do this to myself?

Ok someone on Threads posted about how like...science fiction doesn't have to be 100% accurate because it's science fiction.

Which is a relief because whew that's a load of pressure off my shoulders. But then I remember that I'm psychotic so here I am researching Meshtastic LoRa.

I was so excited to finish half of a chapter last night. I read it back tonight and it might as well have been written by a stranger. And it's bad. lol

Ya win some, ya lose some. But still, it did give me something to work with and now I'm making progress again. 28,000 words down!

So, book 2 of my trilogy gets more science-y. Last night I made a huge breakthrough in my research that ties together a MAJOR plot point and gives credibility to the events and I am SO. FREAKING. EXCITED.

Now brb while I slide into a bunch of scientists’ DMs real quick.

Sometimes, music is the best for writing. Other times, it reminds you of another character's storyline that you aren't writing yet because you have to finish the one you're on, and NOW I CAN'T RESIST THE SIREN CALL

does anyone else suffer from the rapidly and sometimes randomly incurred status effect called "I love my original character(s) so much it hurts." like it just forces you double over for a few moments cardiac arrest style before you're able to regain composure and continue on, newly invigorated.

I was just thinking about how cute it is that this app is called 'blue sky' and its icon is a little butterfly.

It's growing on me.

hehehehehehehhe it's a good job!

Oooohhhh that's tricky! I feel like any of the alien-based superheroes would def be sci-fi. Or like, science lab powers...but then Batman? He's technically a dude who made LARPing his full-time job, so I'd say fantasy.

I love social media because every time I read a book by a new author, I can slide into their DMs to start raving about everything I love about their book. This is now how I make all of my new friends.

Got 1,000 words today already!!! Just passed 23,000. Let's gooooooooooooo!

I love the 'inside jokes' my readers are coming up with in relation to things that happen in my book. It's such a fun little thing that I didn't expect to happen.

It's nice to know that if I yell out "MURDER-PIG" I can find my readers, though.

I think I finally have a good rotation of coffee shops to write in. It's a wonderful thing. Truly.

Ooooo now that’s an idea I can get behind!

Ahh nice!!! I’ll def check that out!! Thank you ☺️

I think it's genuinely so cute how many fantasy authors have crowns. I want a crown.

What would be the sci-fi equivalent of a crown?

omg this was everything i never knew i needed. i freaking love it.
