I've just posted instructions for setting up your own Stay-at-Home Creative retreat. I'll be doing one of these for myself October 11-17 and I'm inviting anyone who wants to join me to my hosted virtual events. www.patreon.com/SandraTayler...

Hello. I am widening my submissions categories to include: - Epic Fantasy - Space Opera - Near Future/High Concept SF - Horror Details here: www.dongwonsong.com/submission-g...

@jeshonard.bsky.social and I are just shy of 50% to our goal to fund the audiobook of Undeniable (a supernatural thriller) narrated by @maryrobinettekowal.com. Can you help nudge us toward the finish line? thegrigoribooks.com/audiobookpro... We appreciate your support so much!

Stares blankly in "I don't do drafts"

I’ve enjoyed this so much in past years that I’ve already signed up for next year as well

Odysseus: Do I need to give sacrifice to Poseidon before we set sail? Alex: All the information is in the task.

GREG DAVIES: seems like a kind of a shit task. Everyone just seems like they're going home normally. ALEX HORNE: well before you say that let's have a look at how Odysseus did. cut to panel of AJAX, MENELAUS, AGAMEMNON, and DIOMEDES who are all staring at ODYSSEUS with his head in his hands

for your #questpit consideration: THE ISLAND’S DAUGHTER. #q #a #f #sff #wf #u

#questpit #Q #YA #F BLOOD OVER BRIGHT HAVEN x ANIMORPHS x HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON When the failed son of a dragonslayer undergoes a monstrous change, his already brittle sense of self-worth takes a nosedive, and he ends up needing the support of a fellow drake almost as much as he resents it.

It’s been a long time since I’ve written creative non-fiction but the best examples of the genre are delightful. Also, this? This was a great example and it was delightful (and no, I won’t spoil the ending, go read it and spoil yourself if you so choose) www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

It’s a rough day to release a book, but release days are picked well in advance and unless I’m mistaken it’s not the book’s fault it was released on a day like today… which means for any followers so inclined, here’s a little release that could probably use a boost

I still have books available. My backers donated 70 books for people who need them and can't afford them. Sign up now to claim a copy! forms.gle/Ttn61tfy6Z...

I promise you there are no politics in my fantasy novel about a Nobel woman falsely accused of plotting insurrection and sent into exile, and her girlfriend who insists on accompanying her

Scarlet’s story was one of my favs, by the way

There were some great stories in this

BEHOLD! The absolutely stunning cover art for Flightless, my solo-written debut, is here. I'm so excited to share my social justice fantasy heist with y'all. @sumrow.bsky.social absolutely killed the artwork. Some details I particularly love are in the comments.

Interesting perspective to read

I'm going to be giving critiques on 5,000-word submissions and teaching a class on mining your personal history at the third annual Sandia Starforgers retreat for SFF writers. All topics by instructors are now listed on the event page. Only 3 tickets left, and doors close March 10. starforgers.com

Fellow writers: I am deeply saddened to share that if we want the rewards of having written, we must submit to the mortifying ordeal of writing

No new pictures. Where are you at mentally?

If you're a writer, wondering why you should bother writing with the world on fire. It feels like it's not important, I need you to understand that it is. Even if it is just because it keeps you moving forward? Even if it only brings YOU joy, that gives you energy to fight & survive.

I’ve attended the past two years and of course am going back for a third… lots of lovely writing discussions among a classroom-sized group of writers, and other wonderful discussion, and sometimes I even get some writing done

A good thread to review and remember

I've posted the first part of this tutorial. "Principles of Friendship" Free to read on my Patreon. www.patreon.com/posts/januar...

I’ve liked quite a few (and haven’t seen Stranger Things S5 yet) but for me the best in recent memory was The Good Place. I recall it got a mixed reception but I thought it was great

This is your energy for 2026 *via Zjaan on masto/original source unknown

This was fun to write. Also, shockingly hard to write. Thanks for using your platform to elevate other writers, @scalzi.com whatever.scalzi.com/2025/10/29/t...

I'm faculty for Sandia Starforgers, a weekend SFFH writing retreat in NM. I'm joined by @charliejane.bsky.social @davering.bsky.social @tangentgeoff.bsky.social @marieparks.bsky.social @harrietshouse.bsky.social Early bird discount ends 10/15. Scholarship app due 11/30. starforgers.com/2026

PUT AWAY YOUR GLAIVE, TODAY YOU WILL BATTLE SELF DOUBT. AND YOU WILL WIN.

Branding is important.

“A lot of people are saying, ‘Maybe we like a dictator.’” — George Washington “You also had some very fine people on both sides.” — John Adams “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?" — Alexander Hamilton

The first was great (and I still have a related sticker on my water bottle). Looking forward to the next one

Gonna do the promo thing for a minute here... ...because @marieparks.bsky.social and I FINALLY have a release date for Undeniable, the sequel to Unrelenting. If you like found families, ancient magic in a modern setting, and ace main characters, save the dates. 👇

Welp, time to blowup my notifs! Thesis: Worldcon COULD be good, but we may have to drag it there kicking and screaming.

I’ve read each of Jenny Lawson’s previous books and they are all great

I’ve done this for two years now and each year has been great

At Worldcon for the first time in… a decade? This time I should know more people which will hopefully make it feel less overwhelming

@gralefrit.bsky.social You have to see these! A friend of mine has been collating a series of images entitled "Things my students have written turned into Philomena Cunk quotes" and they're just glorious.

This is an uninterrupted minute of Maruay the rescued tiger with his beloved ball..🥰😇 #bluesky

One example of historical publications embracing entertainment even among serious news and happenings

I work in an off-site storage facility for an academic library, which has archives and also "regular" books that we don't want to weed but don't have the space to keep on campus. I am constantly finding "Holy shit look at this thing, I wish I had the rest of my life to read it" items at work. 1/?

This is Cupcake. She overheard you describe something as having more rolls than a bakery. Thinks you better be talking about culinary school. 12/10

Take the time to watch until the end (or scroll there) for a nice end quote about listening to the fans

I told you we’d be back
