You know what doesn't get enough love? Horror short stories. From today through Halloween, I'll update this thread with Horror short story recommendations. Stuff you can read in a sitting while feeling like the shadows are watching.

The sheets on my bed have been officially switched back to flannel. Huzzah for autumn!

FRIENDS: recommend some trans-authored books (including yours!) in the comments! And if you've never read a book by a trans person, browse the comments and you may find your next great read. No time like the present to stick it to the pieces of shit who think we ought neither to be seen or heard

Did y'all see my #QueerWritersChat promo post? Did you notice it was for something other than The Harmony of Falling Snow? I'm silly excited to have a new book to promo. Although I still want people who haven't read Harmony to read it... Details and the first 3 chapters at andybrokaw.com/harmony

#QueerWritersChat As we've established, Etsian is prone to angst, particularly at the start of his story. This is his current into. (Which I highly relate to because I would also be this miserable if coerced into living on a tropical island.)

#QueerWritersChat Most of them really don't. The ones most likely to fall into angst are Yuri from Harmony (who is actually bipolar, so maybe give the guy a break), Etsian from Melody, and Aethen from The Unnamed Asexual Soup Romantasy. Shadowkin Bex and Yves the songwriter would SAY they do...

#QueerWritersChat Hey! I'm Andy the agender panromantic asexual. This week I've been working on major edits for The Melody of Shining Stars, a polyamorous romantasy about a catboy, a birdboy, and shadow elemental.

My ballot was dropped in the box today. Yay voting!

I'm not sure what to do with the rest of my day other than not write anything. 25k in a week was a lot and my house needs cleaned now. I need to decide what I'm doing tomorrow. Probably starting the next revision of Melody. I need to trim a lot from it. Or insert Winter's Second Verse before it...

The Coffee F/F/NB Triad Romantasy rough has been completed at 24,511 words. My second drafts usually expand the word count so I'll need to keep on eye on that but believe I've created a novella! #writing #QueerWriters

I have totally been meaning to read this...

If you want to read about breaking a lack of democracy and breaking expectations of monogamy to avoid breaking hearts, The Harmony of Falling Snow has an excerpt at andybrokaw.com/harmony The next book in the series releases late next month and hopefully I'll have pre-orders for it up soon.

#QueerWritersChat Oddly enough, I wrote a response for this about an hour ago... Although I feel bad about "post a snippet" prompts as my eyesight doesn't typically let me read other people's responses to them. (The alt text takes up more than one of my screen and doesn't scroll)

#QueerWritersChat Hi! I'm Andy, an agender, asexual panromantic who writes queernormative polyamorous romantasy. This week I'm writing the rough of a novella about a dragon-descended elf who is shocked to discover ey has a matebond with the cute barista ey and eir wife have been crushing on.

There's an off-page transphobic statement in Melody of Shining Stars. We become aware of it after the target's granddad throws the offender into a wall. A few witnesses are upset at Grandad for breaking a perfectly good wall light in the process but most people think it well done. #QueerPrompts

Over 5k of Coffee Triad Romantasy written today! All three have blurted out things they're mortified by and their friends are catching on that they may need help they absolutely swear they do not want. #Writing #QueerWriters

When I say I do most of the cooking in my triad... My wife had to ask if we own a food processor or blender. And our husband wouldn't have known. We have both. I even know where they are. And how to use them. More adults does not automatically mean fewer tasks for a primary homemaker. #polyamory

I got my teeth cleaned! By a hygienist it turned out I knew. I'd just completely forgotten she's a dental hygienest. Lol. Also scheduled getting a few old filings replaced. Not looking forward to that.

I started writing the rough of Coffee Triad Romantasy today. And I have a favorite lead. Kres is a high energy fail enby who babbles adorably in eir head while being struck speechless by the new love interest. And is part ice-dragon. :) #writing @QueerWriters

I have a dental appointment. It is tomorrow. At least I don't have too long to worry about it before it happens.

I have submitted a message requesting a dental appointment. This is not the same level of adulting as GOING TO a dental appointment, but I feel it deserves recognition.
