This book was such a cute fall read and so timely in this era of book bans (Preston is a sweetiepie, I love him 🥹; finally, rep for us autistic dorks who don't drive lol) 💖

My latest is a modern gender-swapped retelling of The Music Man with an autistic librarian fighting book bans, who falls for a conwoman selling a fake music festival to get revenge on a tech bro millionaire who bought his way into power☺️ bookshop.org/p/books/my-k...

Yeah sure, all the responsibility falls to pedestrians, who need to stand at the side of the road in -30C darkness and try to figure out if the drivers are bothered enough to glance in their direction before driving their 2000lb+ machines through crosswalks for the next 6 months

Winnipeg police are urging motorists and pedestrians to exercise extra caution at intersections following a rash of collisions across the city, including one that claimed the life of a woman.

In light of some magazines pulling scummy things on creators lately, I’m doing a little thread on short story rights. I don't want anybody getting taken advantage of. Also, if you're new, this stuff can be confusing!

UPDATE: I laughed, I cried, I want ten more of it

Yay! I finally got a copy of @elizmanderson.com 's Lord of the Woods and it sounds so good! Can't wait! 💖💖💖

Day 3 of Mab’s #Drawlloween Club! The prompt is “werewolf.” This is actually a redraw of my #werewolf drawing from last year, an #illustration that I really loved but wanted to challenge myself to draw it again to see how my drawing skills have evolved in a year.

I want to develop a course on fantasy and the nonhuman. What are your favorite texts, novels, poems, about the nonhuman, from the medieval era to the present? Animals, things, forces, armor, stained glass, spirits, weather, monsters, the elements—all that good living stuff.

The full trailer for You Can See Everything is out today. And my first thought is that it should be required that Nathan Fielder film for 48 hrs at every tech CEO’s home.

Every now and then I see myself referred to as an "AI Denier" and I want to be clear I acknowledge "AI" exists, it's just I think it's a massive energy drain, created from theft, implemented poorly for inappropriate tasks by loathsome tech executives who get hard at the idea of the rest of us dying

My deepest apologies to everyone who I “installed harmful mind viruses” into with THE GHOSTKEEPER because it made them feel briefly sad 😔 I shall see myself to the author dungeons now (jk I’m not sorry and I will do it again >:3)

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.
