Oh hell no. This shouldn't be a thing. In the author's voice is even worse, because now nobody will believe it when an author narrates their own book. I'm a few chapters into narrating Our Simulated Selves on my own. Slow going. It was gonna be a surprise, but not with this tech out there. Sigh.
Oh, ABSOLUTELY NOT. Feeding both my book AND my voice into AI? 🤮

Got my Proofs/ARCs for The Egg Prime Directive today and I honestly don't have the words (ironic, I know, since there are almost 123,000 words in these puppies!) Cover art: @enerjax.bsky.social Cover design @ MLS Logo: @catblackard.bsky.social Interior art: @jayeallisonashtear.bsky.social
I just realized I never posted my farm map on here! This is printed at the front of my latest book, Fallow Till We Bloom. The map is by no means needed to understand the story, but I love a good map! This commission was done by the incredible @sagamack.bsky.social. Thanks, Saga!

Cover reveal for The Egg Prime Directive! Y'all, I cannot get over the gorgeous artwork that @enerjax.bsky.social created for this, or the stunning design that @catblackard.bsky.social did for the cover! They absolutely nailed the Yuri vibes of the story! (full cover & original art downthread!)
!!! My endless thanks to the incredible teams of SPSFC judges, to my readers, and to everyone else who helped my strange debut novel find its place. This is beyond surreal. Thank you, thank you, thank you. 💟

Snag it on sale for the next few hours, along with my first novel, Our Simulated Selves, a convoluted trans cyberthriller that took MANY frantic years and dozens of drafts between 2011 and 2025 to write. That one is decidedly NOT a romance, but good luck convincing the antagonist of that.

You can find it anywhere books can be bought online. I strongly recommend snagging a physical copy because of the absolutely beautiful cover by @martapreliy.bsky.social, but it’s also available on Kindle, ebook shops, and as an .epub on itch.io!
Fallow Till We Bloom comes out in three days! In a foggy mountain town with a cryptid problem, four queer people come together to rebuild a burnt-down farm. If that sounds good to you, preordering the Kindle version would help me immensely, or you can snag the DRM-free ebook on itch.io on Tuesday!
The fruit fly brainscan going around as freeware on the internet fills me with terror beyond comprehension. I wrote a whole book warning about this shit. I wonder if the simulated fruit fly's brainscan experiences something akin to dysphoria when mapped into a different body than a fruit fly's.
This was a pretty good dialect quiz. I don't think it did much to specifically clock strong Southern California's more unique regional indicators (like how we refer to numbered roads) so I'm not surprised it clocked the more unique Jerseyisms I picked up from my mom over my SoCal.
everyone taking this quiz today is big livejournal vibes (complimentary) mydialect.us

Infinite thanks to Mart Lett @martapreliy.bsky.social for this beautiful cover! There are so many gorgeous details, on both the front and back cover. I can't wait to get this printed!
THE RANMA 1/2 HOMAGE!? Love it! I deeply enjoyed Fields of Mistria when I last played it in beta, way before they added a bunch of the new stuff. I'll have to replay really soon!

Absolutely stunned that my unconventional sci-fi novel has found a place! Thanks to the judges for advancing my book (and, indeed, for making SPSFC possible at all!) and congratulations to the other finalists and semifinalists who made it up here!
The fifth finalist is Our Simulated Selves by @nikkinull.bsky.social, a quantum thriller of romance, recreated realities and who we're truly meant to be. www.amazon.com/dp/B0FCVK8RP7
