Echo

me when followers & moots say my ocs’ names

what do u mean u guys actually paid attention

“Admiting the problem is the first step.”

Which, you would think, communicates rather clearly, that there are other steps that should follow that…

Got my Kindle up and working again, looking forward to FINALLY reading Alys and Changeling by the lovely @kiricallaghan.com ! She also has a new book coming out soonish, The Hearth Witch's Guide to Magic & Murder. With a title like that, you should go take a look to learn more! 😉

Dude, if there was an Escaflowne kit, even *I* would want one, and this is not an Echo hobby, really!

My mama is a librarian, and borrowing books from libraries helps both authors AND libraries! 👍

Today is my birthday! As silly as it sounds, it would mean so much to me if you preordered my cozy modern fantasy inpired by Sherlock Holmes.

Preorders are important because they count toward that first week of sales.

@kiricallaghan.com also has a couple books I've been thinking of getting for you, so please avail yourself of her awesomeness! She is definitely a kindred spirit. 😉

When her time comes for The Great Dirt Nap, she will not be missed nor remembered fondly.

4.) I can't eat the same thing over & over without getting PHYSICALLY sick of it. My mum made scrambled eggs every day for breakfast for me during school for a couple weeks, and I couldn't touch eggs for about a YEAR because just the thought made me feel nauseated. 😅😩

3.) I grew up watching improv comedians, which had quite the impact on my sense of humour! Though my wit never did become quite as sharp as theirs, but hey. There's still time. 😉

2.) I used to listen along to audio books (Books On Tape, then CD, just to date myself as a Millennial) while reading the book. Reading got tricky for me & that method helped me keep things straight. (But I'm too ADHD to just listen to the books!)

1.) As a child, I hated the colour red, SOLELY because it seemed more popular than blue, which is MY favourite. Child!Echo was petty over the oddest things. 🤣

Time to sleep like a Victorian! (Biphasic sleep, I think it's called? Something like that, if I'm wrong.)

Alright, I'll bite!

1 Like = I piece of Echo Lore~

.....When I tell you that my best friend @rileymorrigan.bsky.social has a character based on this EXACT myth in a world I created, so I legit just slapped my hand over my mouth to stop from audibly shrieking--😆

I felt a similar way with singing and piano lessons as a young teen. Like all the technical training would take away the magic people told me I had. NOW, I'm like 'Oh, you foolish, pompous dimwit...' But YOU not pursuing singing as a career for such a reason is NOT pompous. I was just dumb. 😅

after having witnessed the birth of the internet and existing online for 3 decades I can confidently say no feedback is more validating than tumblr reblog tags

Man, it's really easy to forget about Bluesky when the app doesn't work on your phone, so you can only check it on your laptop. 😅

Trauma do be like that. Here, have chicken~🍗

Don't trust "AI" and also realize that the push to have "AI" in everything happened because some tech people wanted to get rich and other tech people didn't want others to get rich without them, and now they've all spent too much money on a bad product and are trying to scramble out of the hole.

I meaaaannn, I can think of a couple reasons off the top of my head..... 😅

My heart breaks a little every time I see someone say “that kind of make-up” or “that color” is not for adults.
My poor friend, when did you let them convince you grew out of joy?

I know a lot of people are boycotting Amazon, which is great, but it's hurting a lot of trans authors.

Trans authors: Drop links to your NON-AMAZON book listings/storefronts.

Cis people: Repost, boost, and, importantly, buy. Part of boycotting an evil corporation is supporting the alternatives.

More of this!
