I'm rarely going to hop in my car for anything, but I might take mass transit.

Bindery Books | What Feeds Below publishing stories that haunt and heal.

If anyone is a fan of horror by BIPOC authors, pre-orders started today for a new book by Tatiana Schlote-Bonne, via Boozhoo Books boozhoo.binderybooks.com/item/1ILBaRy...

I enjoyed her first two novels. My review of her first book can be found at marvelish.me/such-lovely-...

I grew up in Wisconsin, so for me the outside should be butter… and more cheese! A crisp, buttery cheese shell, with melty cheese on the inside.

I think what you meant to say is that you're writing a new short story because you love us all and wanted to provide us something new to read more quickly than a novel would allow!

I can see that last part, although I have pretty positive feelings about therapy (now, after getting through some things).

For what it's worth, I'm not autistic but I find the careful phrasing of many of the autistic people I know super refreshing. I appreciate direct…

First of all, happy birthday!

Do you mean published this year, read this year, or both?

Does your blood pressure start to rise as soon as someone says something like, "so what you're really saying is…"?

Non-exhaustive, but probably not non-exhausting. That sounds so draining to try to work through.

My thoughts and feelings right now as they pertain to the Bondi Beach shooting come in poetry form.

I've been listening to this song so much, and it's the newest addition to my "F#%k Cancer" playlist—I had it on repeat before my oncologist appointment on Tuesday.

@dessadarling.bsky.social's Good Grief is also one of the small handful of songs that helped get me through losing my son.

Kat is one of my dearest cancer buddies, a lovely and lively person as well as a talented artist. She's the one who did my profile picture!

If you can spare even a few dollars to help her, I would be grateful.

It was the idea that someone might feel seen and a bit less alone that made me start sharing my poetry last year. From there I started writing reviews. Now I'm working on a novel.

Reviews, for me, are all about other people—author and audience. For everything else, I'm still finding the balance.

This is interesting to think about!

I've been a writer for most of my life, I only recently started thinking of myself as one. I wrote because I had things I need to get out.

Friends eventually convinced me that I might actually be good, and that other people might get something out of my work.

A digital drawing of one of those drawing tutorials that says 'don't do this, do this.' 
The drawing is of an almost naked middle-aged man doing a flying kick. The 'Don't do this' one has a bunch of areas circled and a cross under it. The 'Do this' one is exactly the same but without the circles and a tick instead of a cross.
The text reads 'Needlessly adding red circles will ruin your art' and a smaller bit of text at the bottom reads 'Bonus tip! Add a tick under all your art so people think you did it right.'

That sounds like a lot of envy to me.

Anyway, congratulations! That sounds like a truly fascinating field, and a lot of work. I'm a random internet stranger, but I'm proud of you.

Read this ASAP. Seriously, this series rules. As a casual magical girl enjoyer, this series strikes a perfect balance of character work, tone, style, and vibes that tells a beautiful story about figuring yourself out, and then fighting for that life against the forces of evil.

Looking for artists!

Are you or someone you know great at logo design? I'm interested in possibly getting one made for things like bookstagram, my website, etc.

I'm also absolutely expecting to pay for it. I'd rather pay someone in my social circles than a total stranger.
