a weird cartoony animal that is shaped kinda like a pakicetus on a colorful background with text. "This nervous Pakicetus (I think) is here to tell you about Nino's BookCon appearance. I guess I have a brand now and it's weird animals that are free on Canva." In a speech bubble for the pakicetus: "yes hello great to be here. I promise this isn't a threat display, haha unless?"

A pakicetus on a colorful background. In a speech bubble is the following text: Queer Horror: Then & Now. Sunday, 4/19, 12:30, Room 402. Horror has always been queer, and now even more proudly so. Join these exciting voices in the space as they share their insights on queer horror--their origins, relationship, and work within it, current craft trends and industry developments--and the thrilling new futures they envision for lovers of the genre. Post-panel signing at 1:45, Autographing Table 2. Also if you keep scrolling, there's a cat pic."

Happy Friday! It's time for the return of "Nino announces their appearances at cons via weird free art on Canva"

Anyway, catch me at BookCon this Sunday on an incredible panel with @victormanibo.com, @haileypiperfights.bsky.social, Jade Song, Andrew Joseph White, and Laura Samotin.

Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.

FULL TRAILER!

THE TERROR: DEVIL IN SILVER

This showcases our cast, which is STACKED with greatness.

In a way, this story is the work of my lifetime.

Chris has been the greatest partner in making this show real.

Karyn, Ridley and so many others were vital in all this.

Feeling wildly proud.

Some things objectively suck!

Say their name 🤣

the 25th amendment *cannot and will not be used in this way.* calling for it is ignorant and counterproductive in that it is effectively a lie to your constituents and distracts from some actual things you could do.

Happy book birthday! 🥳🥳🥳

“A whole civilization will die tonight” is the most vile thing a US president has ever said, certainly during the post-1945 era when they’ve had the power to kill civilizations with the dropping of a bomb. I’m staring into the darkness. May this not be one of the most fateful days in human history.

yeah man i'll circle back to you on that agenda item from yesterday's all hands in just a sec. our pedophile king just threatened to destroy a whole civilization

So grateful to Locus! I can track so much of my authorial history thanks to their brilliant journalism on behalf of our industry! So blessed to see our lovely @bklynbooksbooze.bsky.social photo with myself, @randeedawn.com, @shvetathakrar.com, @victormanibo.com & @fondalee.bsky.social on page 72!
