Mastodon, the largest gathering of queer people who have printed out Mapquest directions.

Side quest accepted.

Jesus can walk on water. I can walk on cucumbers. Cucumbers are 96% water. Therefore I am 96% Jesus.

I got my royalty statement for last quarter 😭 and it reminded me that I should probably talk about my books or something!

SO! In case you thought I was 100% serious bsns, I write urban fantasy about a half-succubus lawyer. On the fun side: magic, murder, mayhem, monster girls, & a shameless goth aesthetic. On the thoughtful side: themes of ethical power exchange, consent, & fighting back from trauma.

Still looking for someone in #Nashua or #Boston interested in adopting a 10 gallon fish tank with a single ancient tetra. It is brimming with plant life. The tetra is like 7-8 years old and we don't know how. Long outlived the other fish; we have named him Grandpa.

Free to a good home.

someone once asked me why i was so worried about the environment

i just said "i live there"

and they looked at me as if that fact had never once occurred to them

Happy solstice everyone 🌞🌚

My listening through the embers of the year is the new 12-part BBC audio adaptation of Susan Cooper’s THE DARK IS RISING, with a new episode each day. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/w13xtvp7

[it must be time for @neilhimself’s annual reminder that you can listen to BBC Radio anywhere in the world]

One of the benefits of #Mastodon being #OpenSource: The EU can help make it more secure.

"Awards of up to EUR 5000 are available for finding security vulnerabilities in LibreOffice, LEOS, Mastodon, Odoo and CryptPad, open source solutions used by public services across the European Union. There is a 20% bonus for providing a code fix for the bugs they discover."

I have been genuinely baffled by the cries to put self-promotion behind a CW since I started using Mastodon in earnest this fall.

I know that everyone uses social media differently, but I want to know what people are working on. I want to know about new books or albums or apps or podcasts or whatever. I want to know who is looking for help via crowdfunding.

I care about the whole person, not a persona they're forced into by arbitrary rules.

Decided to share my "journey to the Passage Grave" winter solstice meditation journey here. I've been doing this for many years now. I first posted this version to my PiFo about 2 years ago.

Enjoy 😊

Writers are taught not to write wish-fulfillment—it's too easy, boring, or low stakes. But that reasoning is wrong. It only seems that way because we've all already read thousands of wish-fulfillment stories about cis het able-bodied white males, so they're very... predictable.

For every other demographic?

Readers actively, desperately crave wish-fulfillment stories about themselves, because they rarely if ever see them.

A few more #introduction-type posts...the project that resulted in my suddenly having an art career (!) was the reconstruction of a trilobite, a Ceraurus species, from fossil evidence, in bronze and silver. Nerdist somehow found my progress posts on FossilForum and wrote a lovely article...
