“…You come to room 1013 over at the hospital, I'll show you America. Terminal, crazy and mean. I live in America, that’s hard enough, I don’t have to love it. You do that. Everybody’s got to love something.”
~ Tony Kushner, Angels in America

As someone who has had a hyperfixation twords space and sci-fi media for a good chunk of my life, I have been living these past few weeks.
Please keep looking forward to the future and remain hopeful.

Evening bump!!
I wrote a sci-fi #shortstory about a small group of workers on a distant planet mining to the center of said planet to search for a folk hero to save their peers. You can read "Galveston Greer And His Fantastic Drill" for free on Medium and Ellipsus!

The Medium link will be on my Carrd, direct link to the story will follow the day of release because I can’t share Ellipsus accounts directly. Whoops. ._.;;
What would you do to bring back a folk hero to help your people?
#shortstory dropping tomorrow on Medium and Ellipsus. 🪐☄️

I have no prank for today. And while I have one in mind, it won’t be until later in the future. So, it’s going to be premeditated.
That’s your only warning.
Remember when Ursula K. Le Guin savaged J.K. Rowling in a 2004 Guardian interview? “I have no great opinion of [JK Rowling’s writing style]. When so many adult critics were carrying on about the “incredible originality” of the first Harry Potter book, I read it to find out what the fuss was about, and remained somewhat puzzled; it seemed a lively kid’s fantasy crossed with a ‘school novel’, good fare for its age group, but stylistically ordinary, imaginatively derivative, and ethically rather mean-spirited.”
Let’s not forget what Ursula K. Le Guin had to say about JKR and Harry Potter.
Also you wanna know how it was a good movie? It motivated me to start writing ☺️
Saw Project Hail Mary. Amazing despite some differences from the book. 9.5/10.
I wish all GenAi users and indulgers a very happy no clean drinkable water.
I have things I wanna share with you guys but I need to wait and it’s killing me AAAAAHHHH!!!!!!
My life as a writer is mainly just finding endless hacks that trick my brain into writing.
Seriously, that damn thing throws up so many obstacles.
I swear to god of another fanfic gets a 70 billion dollar deal to get trad published, I’m gonna start lying and saying that my ocs are established characters. #booksky
Thank you! ☺️
It’s a mostly sci-fi story with a splash of fantasy and the next book might be coming out later this year or early 2027, depends on the road map, official announcement to follow along with digital arcs!

Happy #WriterShareWednesday! here’s my book that came out last year: Neptia’s Galaxy Railway!
In the distant future, an amnesiac stowaway meets the runaway heiress of a high-class galactic train line and they travel through space trying to figure out who he is and where he came from.

Oh sure! Give me a bit, sorry!

I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...
Welp, in honor of #Worldbookday here’s the copyright page to my book, Neptia’s Galaxy Railway. Happy reading!

It’s World Book Day and nobody told me?!
SHAME.
When Terry Pratchett died it struck me that our door to the world inside his mind was forever closed. Other people could write Discworld books of course, but they would be their own interpretation - not bad but inherently different. I realised each human mind is a unique, limited resource
The play is Angels in America btw. Good stuff in there.
The fact that a play that has the quote “I wish I were an octopus...A FUCKING OCTOPUS!” is giving me some sort of comfort and helping me make sense during all of this better than any self help book is telling but not surprising.
