TL cleanse of some luscious Green Theban yarn. This was a recent order of merino/silk so you can see the sheen on this. And like magpies, us humans love that shiny stuff. And it's cool to have the option of yarn cakes now so you can create pretty gradients. 😍 🧶

Hey y'all. Serious ask: I have been as pumped up as anyone this week, the reality remains that a Harris win will likely not save us in AL. My hope is to prevent other people going through what we are. My local repro care clinic needs help. Badly. If you can...pls help. givebutter.com/wawc2024end

I wrote a thing. It’s heavy… mailchi.mp/7865c3cf462d...

What if we don't make it to November?mailchi.mp

Keep Us Open Til the End of the Year!givebutter.com We need $100,000 to make it to 2025

Raina knelt beside him. “What happened?” “Rolled my ankle.” His face had gone alarmingly pale. “Can’t feel my feet.” He tried to put weight on it and winced. “I felt that, though.” The snow fell faster now, the clouds above darkening. Night came early during the Nunan winter. #WIPSnips

For "fast," protagonist Jenna has one of several Very Bad Days. #WIPSnips

Delighted to get to show off the gorgeous cover for Murder by Memory, a cozy sapphic sci-fi mystery inspired by Wodehouse aunts and generation ships! Coming March 2025 from @tordotcom.bsky.social! Cover illustration by Feifei Ruan Cover design by Christine Foltzer and Shreya Gupta

It has been such a PHENOMENALLY beautiful few days here weather-wise. Trying to enjoy it before we're back to roasting in the 90s again by the end of the week. 😭

Since we’re talking about baking today, I, a person who thinks about the Roman Empire a normal amount, am going to share my recipe for ancient Roman-style bread! It’s easy and DELICIOUS, a lower-gluten, single-rise loaf for people who like the idea of whole wheat bread but not the reality

For "network," alien AI Patches shares an existential thought. #WIPSnips

Sometimes the best people you know may be wholly unaware of their quality, or even think they lack worth. Remind them. Remind them of their worth, that you are honored to be in their company, that they matter. It may seem a small thing to you, but not to them.

I've seen this happen a couple times at the bookstore I work at, so hey, a thread on how you, as an author, can ask a bookstore to stock your book without making it weird

authors: DON'T, I repeat, DON'T email an indie bookstore saying that your book is available wholesale through Amazon. They are our direct competitor and are doing everything they can to make bookselling obsolete. We will ignore your request to stock your book every time you do this

Hi! c: My advice: We should draw and share what we love, not what we think makes us more popular. If we draw "popular" art we will create a following for exactly that - stuff that we actually don't love to draw. And here is my art: Aliens and monsters <3 . #art #artshare #alien
