I went FT freelance in 2019 to write my books, but the majority of my income came from freelancing for places like syfy or a writer's room where my name will never show up on the things I made. Then those ended and I had to go back to a day job. Can't survive on what my writing alone makes.

Annual reminder that the Riverbottom Nightmare Band absolutely deserved to win the Frogtown Hollow Jubilee.

You have to respect showmanship.

I’m DMing our mini-camp the next three days for kids on fall break and so I’m starting with my barely coded Nightmare Before Christmas one shot. Gosh is it always so fun when the players figure it out but especially this time cause it was all kids.

It’d be exciting to think that Bluesky has people pretending to be American like Twitter but I honestly don’t think they could talk about Star Trek Deep Space 9 the way it’s expected here without having watched all the episodes a dozen times

Happy #DoctorWhoDay! Every year I’m happy to celebrate this beautiful show that’s changed my life in profound ways but this year is extra special since it’s the first year I can count myself among the people who have had a hand in making a small part of it. Dare I say it’s… fantastic!

Doubly important since the most effective anti-trans bigotry aims to muddy the conversation past any shared consensus.

Oh my god. This is amazingly terrible and I'm so glad "ex" was in that sentence

Hive mind! I'm writing our annual bad present game for Troubled Waters' Christmas episode. What's a gift you've been given (doesn't have to be at Christmas) that was terrible but you had to pretend to be nice about?

There’s a certain point where I just press buttons until the light turns green.

I do think we should absolutely be able to contest tickets from these in court.

Funny how trans women are always 'they' when they're saying things you don't like.

Our plan went from about 2k a monthβ€”hellishly expensive enoughβ€”to almost 5k. (Yes, we’d be paying more than 50k a year if we kept the same plan). We’re hunting for other plans that will at least cover my oncologist.

I love this idea:

β€œanytime a billionaire is asked for public comment on anything, someone with < $1,000 in the bank should get equal time to offer a rebuttal.”

It has always been so obvious that the backlash to MeToo isn’t about whether the abuse is happening but whether people are allowed to want it to stop

Coming soon: Very Hungry Women #1 The first instalment of a queer horror comic about cannibals, superheroes, and being bad at letting go.

This was shown to me at Tbubz, and impressed me enough to send the creator around to talk to a list of artists. Kickstarter for this coming soon, and I think you should sign up.

I’d never thought of it through that lens and now that you’ve said it, it feels so obvious that I feel silly for not realizing it.

I love movies like Nobody or John Wick where a guy just staggers in and takes out a whole criminal organization in like a day.

Cause I just imagine a The Wire style task for waking up the next day to discover their years long case ended cause of like, a dog.

β€œStrategically” throwing trans kids under the bus in a misguided and ultimately doomed attempt to save cis hides

My comic is called "Shifted" and it's an excerpt from a trans girl werewolf story that's been living in my head for over a decade. When I saw the first concept art of my main character Maddie, I got very emotional about her!
