LETS GOOOOOOOO 🥳🥳

I'm so fucking proud! Follow my talented friend and congratulate her on this incredible accomplishment. I promise y'all are going to be in awe of the world and characters she's created 😭 I can't wait for everyone to meet Blessing 💜 🗣️ A WRITER!

We’re thrilled to share the news that Fuse client Bayana A. Davis’s TROUBLE THE WATERS has sold in a seven-way auction to Lois Evans at Knopf Books for Young Readers! Congratulations, Bayana!

When I first read about the maroons of the Dismal Swamp a couple years ago, the idea for TROUBLE THE WATERS practically unfurled before me & I'm so so so excited and honored to be able to share Blessing's story with readers.

This sparks joy 🥹💙 #TARBIS

This looks dope!

Oooh this is a good question. Who y’all got?

The easier question to pose to a group of nerds is what would be difficult to talk about for 24 hours 😂 But we’ve been know to babble - Black fantasy and sci-fi novels - Doctor Who - Lord of the Rings - Pokemon - Naruto - Sailor Moon - Zelda - Beyoncé - Black TV shows - Critical Fandom 💜

This is the only April Fools content we will accept today 😂🤣

One simply has to spend five minutes with the online community we’ve cultivated to understand folks can be fine, free, and smart. Let’s wrap this convo up!

The Women’s final four is set! Who is gonna take the crown in our #MarchMadness challenge? Only a few points stand between @adventuresinpages.bsky.social and @robynrambles.bsky.social, @talespinningdj.bsky.social is close behind.

There’s definitely Black Whovian community here - let’s connect and build, y’all! #TARBIS

The BNC community on the first day with no games waiting for the Sweet Sixteen to start #MarchMadness

The community looking at @robynrambles.bsky.social about to crash out #MarchMadness

The BNC Brackets for the men are all over the place but with the women’s tourney…sure, it’s day one but we are all fighting for the top spot! #MarchMadness We have one member who chose SF Austin so, I feel confident they’re not in the running 🤣

Tomorrow the madness continues but will the women’s tourney continue in this spirit of love and chaos or will we really get competitive? We will see! #MarchMadness

The BNC men’s bracket challenge was mostly done purely on vibes. This resulted in @maggeth.bsky.social busting her bracket in the first round, @adventuresinpages.bsky.social leading by picking schools that physically made her ill and @talespinningdj.bsky.social having the community say whoo pig
