Our novelette THE ADVENTURE OF THE HIDDEN LANE by Max Jason Peterson (who also did the cover and illustrations!) comes out Nov 3! It's a new (queer) Sherlock Holmes story in classic Doyle style: a story by Watson to be opened long after his death. Blurb and more: duckprintspress.com/2026/10/12/c...

They keep getting weirder, huh...? At least this one doesn't seem more dangerous than its normal counterpart. #swan #bird #tentacle #horror #art

I did it! Found the time to make a snazzy little image of everything I have on sale for Ace Week 💜 Been writing ace characters for a decade now, so this is barely half of them <3 itch.io/s/208981/cla...

probably needless to say, but my reskeet button is working again today 🤣🤣🤣🤣

i believe immovably in the radical idea that the canary deserves to live, and be set free.

Just for a moment, it was only you and me 🐰 The art for my new 2.5 brb screen by the amazing potatingwolfy! #sentifart #vsky

Heads up: this website also "reviews" publishers, writer-beware-style. Lists big reliable publishers as safe, warns about many known scams, and then... Lists a few scam presses as "safe and reliable". Couched in professional language with buzzwords about transparent contracts and payment schedules.

found out that my mother in law decided she was aggressively pro trans rights literally by going, I don't know anything about this but everyone who is against trans rights is also against free school lunch, the issue I know and care a lot about, so this must be the correct way to feel about this

Qrt with a spooky piece! 💀

...every time I try to reskeet something, it throws me to the top of my dash, and I can't see any notifications. ugggggh.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Claire did an amazing introduction to this one! If you need some direction on how to stop using AI in writing, this is for you. (Pssst. Send this one to any friend you think needs it. I promise I'm so so gentle.)

Done and done.

AABB member @redgoldsparks.bsky.social has edited this series of essays the explore the power of queer comics & why they, in particular, terrify the right wing. Check it out here:

I love sex workers and I love furries and I love trans people and I love nsfw creators and all the people that first came to bluesky and made this site into what it is. The same people the devs of this site actively hate and keep trying to get rid of. May they never be swept away. Give them hell.

As recently as last month, the Alt National Park Service was amplifying election misinformation. For god's sake, don't trust them. They're just click farmers.

As we approach the midterms, remember that the Alt National Park Service is a merch sales operation claiming without evidence to be a group of federal employees, and is not a genuine source of news about elections of any kind. Please get your election info from a local, reputable source.

The freedom to read shouldn't end at prison walls. A new Book Riot report exposes how censorship restricts incarcerated people's access to books, education, and opportunity. The fight against censorship must include everyone. Read more: bookriot.com/prison-censo...
