I have a new book out today! It's a Sapphic steampunk western adventure about the dashing Karen Memery riding to the rescue as Annie Oakley's stunt double in a beleaguered early movie!

Hey I have a question #BookCommunity who here has actually created their own bookstore? I'd love to pick your brain. I want to create a #bookstore as well. I know it'll be hard work but I think creating a space for all in this shit TX would be cool. #booksky

On 2 September 1973 J.R.R. #Tolkien died aged 81. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings is the best-selling book of the 20th Century, and is joined by seminal works The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. He may have died 52 years ago but his influence and legacy lives on in us all. Namárië. #BookSky

This is the longest list of curated mysteries I’ve ever compiled. With everything happening in the world, I wanted to give you a good distraction! These are all feel-good mysteries that have a resolution at the end and they always catch the killer. ⚡️📚

Mountain trolls are the biggest creatures in Norwegian folklore. They dwell inside mountains in their own realms, where they hoard gold and gemstones. If they are exposed to sunlight they turn into rock, and legend has it that many mountains in Norway are former trolls. 🎨 Martina Ehrenborg

So #PhysicalCopy is a big thing. It's always been that way. When I was a kid my Dad had a copy defeater. Basically I could make movies illegally. We did so. I don't do illegal anymore. I had like a MASSIVE collection of films. I had all the hits 😂 The reason why I love physical is because cant erase

Snark is filled with it. A lot of them are novellas. There is one full novel. That is more open to characters but it ticks a lot of your boxes. It's also just fun. One of my favorites. Novellas are in first person. You can read them over a weekend or 2-3 days. Pages fly by.

I read this novel. I went into it because the author does have a name. I read the uncut and revised edition. Some of this is very predictable and it's extreme as all get out. Comes with HUGE content warnings. This is about as extreme as I would go. If you're a horror fan check it out if not don't.

Alright so the other day I had asked about pens so today I'm asking what is the favorite tablet paper or what that you like to write on? Just wondering. #authorslife #writerslife #iamreading #iamwriting #writerssky #WritersCommuniry

Thank you. Yeah it's a way to have "one version " of the story and then when I type I make it different. I make edits.

Inside were Hollywood people The main crowd hung out across the St at a bar. Even @johnscalzi. And another female writer had to put out apologies because they made it to the last bit or something. I don't think you're going to get the end of your series. But that is his choice though.

I saw the video from this past weekend Brandon can't do Grim dark. He said he's probably start dark but end in light. Also too as a fan of his I want my Stormlight Books. I have seen and remember a few things about GRRM like when during an award he locked out majority of the people and people 1/2

Okay #WriterCommunity! I want to hear from those that actually write in long hand form what is your favorite #fountianpen? Or what do you really like to use to write your first or many drafts? #iamwriting #novels #writerlife

Hi friends. I caught up with Laird's partner, Jessica M today and received permission to share this. As some of you may know, Laird is in need of a new kidney. The appropriate donor would have O blood type. If you or anyone you know may be a willing match & donor, please reach out to me.

Think you can build them going from romance and then into Fantasy but I would label them that way.

I would say that a lot are going after the same crowd. The Rage is its own thing but if you look at the covers and go to to like TikTok they are mainly alot of them Tik Tok branded or trying to set up and be that way. Yeah we need to give this type of face cover a break. No doubt

Now that I'm in my 40s I just want some peace. I don't even think I'm going to get it. I'd love it but I don't think I'm going to get it. The thing is as I get older it just seems that it's a money thing. If we could just get over the hump better things are there.
