Carmen Loup🌻🌈 Read Aliens in New Florida!

The Audacity follows aro/ace rocket racer, May and her devoted QPR with cinnamon roll alien sex worker Xan as they come to grips with the chaos of an unfeeling (or does it feel TOO much?) cosmos. Aliens in New Florida is a NB/NB spec-fic roadtrip romance set in the same universe! CarmenLoup.com

Voted early! I don’t think I’ve ever voted on the actual Election Day.

I know 3 separate people who just got black kittens! Halloween black cats are the new “don’t get your kid a bunny for easter” 🤣 (they’re all responsible adults, the cats will be fine)

I want genre-bending stories so bad. Why can't a mystery novel be set on another planet? Because when it comes to marketing, if you call it a Mystery and then it's got aliens as a matter of course, mystery people will get mad. Curse you, genre limitations!!

THIS IS ME: 👀

4thewords is now available for Scrivener!! That's so exciting!

I just want to live in a world where this is the only type of news we need to read because everyone in charge of running things behaves themselves.

I found a doodle at a local coffee shop that spoke to me and said “I am Earthbeam Adams! Write about me!” (Not literally of course. That would be silly. Receipt doodles don’t talk.)

I wasn’t even drunk last night. I’m just very serious about comedy as a whole and must defend it 🤣 I am a serious humorologist!

If you need some friends to lovers sapphic monster roadtrip vibes for the fall season, may I suggest Aliens in New Florida? www.carmenloup.com/aliens-in-ne...

I think it would be nicely silly to have Douglas Adams, radical atheist, on my very extremely pagan altar. I usually think staunch atheists are just no-fun-allowed sorts, but I think Saint Adams would get a kick out of it.

I always thought the ultimate goal of growing up was mastering things like humility, empathy, and critical thinking. They’re still important, but it turns out, an equally crucial life skill is just learning how to remain unbothered by people who refuse to do any of those things.

Has anyone figured out how to get procreate to automatically back up to iCloud? I’ve needed that to be a thing for years now 🤣

@havensocial.bsky.social is building an anti-AI, anti-ragebait platform for anyone who's fed up with these things. For authors and readers, this could be the alternative to Booksta and Booktok we've been longing for. To pledge, use my fancy referral link below 👇 Thank you! 🥰

Leaf checkpoint! #leafposting

I’m too fucking hopepunk for this 🫠

Totally forgot I’m going to a convention in Atlanta tomorrow 🤣 fortunately with enough time to pack still! Anyone else going to Multiverse?

I've been siting at 42 reviews on Amazon for a LOONG time and I'm not mad about it 😂 The answer to life, the universe, and everything!

Oh…this is a cat girl I could get into 👀

My philosophy is that everyone is a little bit right and a little bit wrong. I’m of course the most right of all because I’ve realized this.

I’m working on The Audacity Graphic Novel 2 finally! It’s tough getting motivation when there’s not a lot of feedback, though. I didn’t get much traction on Webtoons. Any suggestions about where I should host it? #indiecomics

Decided it would be fun to schedule Halloween movies to watch this year. Watch along with us!

I should not be allowed anywhere near salted macadamia nuts.

I put on eyeliner, I am ready to go see Rocky Horror with @carmenloup.com

I saw somewhere that tomorrow is a social media boycott day? Are we doing that?

I get to go see Rocky Horror tomorrow 🥰 Fun fact, when recording The Audacity audiobook, the voice I did for Chaos was very much inspired by Frankenfurter. Another Halloween fact: Aimz’s voice is my impression of Holtzman from Ghostbusters.

I’m usually really careful about not staring at anyone at the gym because that’s rude BUT there was a guy who looked exactly like Xan (not blue of course), even down to the height and the hair, and it was SO DISTRACTING 🫠
