obsessed with today's article on Nonsense - @nataliesqrl.bsky.social interviews the British trans kids who recently occupied the NHS to protest the way the government and media have been using them as pawns, and shutting down any right of reply. heterosexualnonsense.substack.com/p/we-are-fee...

Yeah-nah! I've found writing 3 sentences commenting on overall themes/ character development to give the flavour of the trilogy reads alright. If you're like me, you revised each blurb to death separately, so why revise them to death again collectively?

My mum got diagnosed before I did. Still making a positive difference for her.

I'd much rather encounter snakes on land, where I can stand still so they don't give a shit about my presence.

I'd love mana tourism! I'd also love the weather to not be crap next time I'm in Auckland, so I can actually go for a cruise around the gulf.

Your self care's way more important. I hope the weather settles and lets that spike shift in the right direction.

My name is Sylver and I am genderfluid, as is the main character of my first book series. Their name is Aydyn, and they work as a supermodel, but use their influence, as well as knowledge of clothing and make-up to also work as a spy. amzn.eu/d/04tguGil

Naturally, like me, the hero of my epic, portal YA Fantasy is nobinary Heir Ruarnon. Caught between tradition and advisors expectations on one hand, and a rise in monsters, magic and mayhem on the other, Ruarnon forges a path to peace that is very much their own. elisecarlson.com/ruarnon-tril...

British Labour threatened to ban puberty blockers permanently the day before International Nonbinary People's Day? This is Nonbinary Awareness week and I'd like UK Labour to be aware that forcing people to undergo puberty into a gender clashing with their identity fucks with their mental health.

Cheers! And nice! I hope Scrivener serves you well. A friend tried to get me into it a few years back but the tools sounded a bit too structured for my ADHD-chaos thought process.

Returning after what became house moving & setting up month; hi folks! How goes the writing/ authoring/ neurodiversing/ queering? I've set up a less overstimulating, more chronic illness/ fatigue accomodating home and am about to return to teaching, part time. Writing -not yet!

Yeah, sucks big time. Long covid taught me how to 'not see' mess and clutter because its yuck and I don't like it and when fatigue and pain hit, there's little I can do about it.
