I am still here, just took a break for lunch, cannot answer questions without lunch!! (We are getting some GREAT questions, I am DELIGHTED.)

I really hate that the german Desaster and english disaster mean the same and the only difference is one(1) letter. It gets me every f time.

I still love this and the first one (Escort Mission) to pieces. Right amount of walking disaster(s) and smexy time 😏🤣 Go grap a copy!

It's release day! ROSEMARY & THYME is live at retailers! Olivia Atwater offers up another gothic fantasy romance, full of dark magic, deceitful faeries, and "witty and nuanced enchantment" (Stephanie Burgis), in the second instalment of the Victorian Faerie Tales. oliviaatwater.com/book/rosemar...

End of October and nearly 20c when temp should be half of it over here 🙈

So what I continue to urge people to turn to for their own safety is small independent communities and collectives focused on sharing information and resources. If you can't find one you like, be the person who leads one. It isn't fair or fast or easy but it's what we've got and it *works*.

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.

Check out my new urban fantasy! 🔪 murder mystery 🧚‍♂️ badass faerie people 🔥 fuck capitalism 🕵️ corporate espionage 🌇 amazing magical city books2read.com/book-Erosion mcburnell.itch.io/erosion #Booksky #Indiebooks

I really don't want Gabe to go homeless, so if you donate more than $5 to his GoFundMe and DM me proof, I'll send you a copy of any of my ebooks, any you want. He still needs $1100 desperately! Donate $50 or more and I'll let you name a character in a future book. Help me help Gabe.

Hey Font Folks! Got a question... I'm looking for a font that's similar to the MPAA's Rating System font but fun. Think like "Fat Tip" but as a Serif. Maybe it's me & having poured through my collection of fonts for a few hrs but I can't seem to find a decent substitute. -.-

Kit writes great genre fiction (containing varying shades of smut… often way beyond my quintessentially English tolerances), from fantasy to contemporary crime. Subtextually it all possesses a pleasing rage and sense of social justice. If any of that sounds your bag, drop a few bucks on this.

As a woman, I am very okay with this.

Looking for queer historical romance with sinister supernatural shenanigans? Of course you are. THE SECRET CASEBOOK OF SIMON FEXIMAL and SPECTRED ISLE are both 99p everywhere this week! (If sale isn't showing where you are give it time, includes Amazon and all the usual suspects, e only)

NEW OPPORTUNITY: Short fiction writer? Love the world of Heaven's Vault? ... then come play in the waters. We're looking to commission 20 short stories set in the Nebula for a new anthology. Paid, obvs. Full details and a link to the form on the blog: www.inklestudios.com/2026/10/24/t...

We must expect that Meta's interference is happening in other elections around the world *right now*. This isn't just a one-off. Meta has proved repeatedly they are committed to advancing far-right agendas worldwide, are serial liars, and are flagrantly indifferent to the dismantling of democracies.

ive talked on how i wont engage with writers who use ai, i wont eat at a restaurant with an ai menu, i wont have anything to do with it. but what this post illustrates is regardless of how OTHERS react, ultimately the worst part about using ai is that you are punishing YOURSELF and dont even know it

I just want to name that people overcame this. Even against a stacked deck, the good fight is worth it. Win or lose, it's worth it. And sometimes the good guys win.

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.)

There is still hope and spite, so much spite. Congratulations to Serbia and Brazil.

Brazil’s results tonight are a big endorsement for the idea that every country should have a second “are you you sure about that” election a couple weeks after the first one for the important stuff

It's LIVING COPY time!! Very very soon! This is a short, experimental novel set in Pennsylvania coal country, about the havoc tech can wreck on our grieving process. We hope you'll check it out! (And you can find the author on IG @ alexdif123) 💜 traumbooks.com/the-living-c...

Head's Up & Sorry Author Friends, My gov's latest decision is gen ai companies don't need licenses to train their gen ai on ANYONE'S work within Australia. All authors get is an opt out. Author's Guild have concerns about how well that opt out will work, and so do I. Sign your opposition in link!
