It has been weird and very lovely to have complete strangers contact me to tell me how much they loved The Shape of Monsters. Because I'm me, there's always a part of my brain going, what, this can't be real? It's nice to have something break out from my usual small circle.
sorry to all my USA buyers, but Slovakia is not currently shipping to the USA, along with many other European countries. I'm assuming this will resolve fairly quickly as shippers and post offices figure out the new situation.
Happy cows
oh excellent
My shop, Night Forest Botanical, will be closed on Thursdays in Solidarity with the Global Strike for Palestine, as called for by Bisan.

Eslam's family needs help not to starve in Palestine during this genocide. any amount can help please🙏
yes I will 🙏
Palestinian families like Yaqub's are being starved to death in Israel's genocidal famine & siege. Please help by sharing & donating if you can:
Palestinian children & babies like Ahmed's daughter Mila are being sickened, denied healthcare & starved to death with their families in Israel's genocide. Please help by sharing & donating:
yes pls!
what if there was a card game and it is like pokemons but it is only silly little goblins and the goblins don't fight each other but instead you just trade the cards so you have all your favourite silly goblins like Chamolie or Plong or maybe Pumbo
please picture me creeping through your churches with a cloth bag of empty mineral water bottles as I head for the Holy Water. The Miraculous Mary Holy Water (in the giant jug lol) they give out in large amounts because everyone likes to Bless their cars and houses here.
oooo!
I am very proud of the map I made for Asher's Ridge. I think my second-favourite place name on the map is Ethelred's Quarrel. Or maybe the Wulfwoods. Or Mildred's Song, or – nope, I can't choose. Day one backers get a folded A2 map for free, just an FYI 🗺️👀 www.kickstarter.com/projects/mon...
ah fair enough. happy for you for your school
🥰 my friend is looking to put a team together lol. in case you feel like playing a ghost game?

Palestinian families like Hamza's are being displaced & starved to death in Israel's genocide. Please help if you can:

Hey @moderation.bsky.app why did you delete @soma-eslam.bsky.social? She's not spam, she's trying to survive a genocide the only way she can! Stop penalising Palestinians for using social media when the world has stopped them using their voices in any other way!
Please help to restore Artist Eslam account! They are trying to raise funds to help their family survive this genocide in Palestine and have been deleted by Bluesky Mods
I ask once more:everyone who hasn’t yet,please send an email to Bluesky moderation with my name: soma-eslam.bsky social. I will not give up until my account returns.I only ask for my account.I only want my account. Please don’t let my voice disappear.Share this post.Send the email.I will not give up

Hire Ramona for your logo design! She did an incredible job on the Blinking Birch logo.

It's two weeks until my new paranormal drama ttrpg goes live on Kickstarter. Ask me anything, I'll do my best to answer! www.kickstarter.com/projects/mon... #ttrpg #ashersridge #solorpg
I love this game SO SO MUCH! The quickstart is already available so if anyone wants to play a one-shot of it to see what it's like before the launch, hit me up!
I will never ever understand the Hugos going "there isn't enough time so can't read the name of every nominee", like the literal point of the ceremony is to read out names, what are we even doing
hooray!
srsly! it seems like a past noone knows they are in
this sounds so good!
Michelle Tang’s gaslamp horror novella, DUMORT is out now! Includes the bonus short story, “A Fate Finer Than Death”.
heartbreaking
Omar's GFM was shut down and all the money returned--they've had to start from scratch while being attacked, displaced, & starved to death in Israel's genocide. Please help if you can, Bsky keeps deleting/marking them as spam:
Palestinian children like 19 yo Hosam's little siblings are being starved to death with their families in Israel's genocide. Please help by sharing & donating if you have anything to spare:
😂
Plus ça change at the Hugos this year about what gets mispronounced—the Lipan title of Darcie Little Badger's award-winning book SHEINE LENDE; the Cambodian first name of the author of THE MINISTRY OF TIME, Kaliane Bradley—or casually skipped, like the khōréō masthead with all those foreign names.
If you haven't read @jordanscarroll.bsky.social's book "Speculative Whiteness,"and want to know why there are so many pervasive problems from tech bros to racism in SFF, it is a short and important read: bookshop.org/p/books/spec...
😂
clown fish!
They still banned her account and told her she wasn’t allowed back on the site. The reason given was inauthenticity of the account. I find that horrifying. She shared an extremely personally identifying documentation with them, and they called her inauthentic and banned her.
Eslam shared with me that bluesky moderation made what i think is a very significant request from her. They asked her for a picture of herself, with her passport, and gave her a code to write on a piece of paper for confirmation it was her. She did those things. I saw the picture she sent them.
Artist Eslam's account has been removed by Bluesky mods. this is a person trying to raise funds to survive genocide, someone I have messaged with and donated to over the last year
I can’t thank the INCREDIBLE Clay McLeod Chapman enough for these kind words on CLAIRVIOLENCE: TALES OF TAROT AND TORMENT!! Due out October 21 from @tenebrouspress.bsky.social, but our pre-sale is live for those who wanna get a jump on some sickening, slimy, sexy and supernatural stories!!

Happy Publication day to @nuzo.bsky.social for The Fake Ghost! I can’t wait to read this
Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all: “If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.” Israel just killed him.
Al-Sharif killed in what appears to be a targeted Israeli attack on tent housing journalists outside al-Shifa hospital.
I literally never post, rt or even like pix of owls for this reason! Despite loving them but jic!
oh cool, thx!
Morning! I’m just finishing The Summer I ate the Rich by Maika Moulite & Maritza Moulite. It’s a highly readable YA Haitian-American zombie /food / anti-capitalist fantasy. I’m loving the Greek chorus/greek comedy structure as well.
That looks so cute!
Such a joyful story! So happy for you and congratulations on creating a life that supports you. Happy Birthday Week!
🍄🟫🍄🟫🍄🟫 thanks!
🙏
The forest is gracious and generous with mushrooms!

Omg can’t wait for a new African horror from @nuzo.bsky.social ! The Fake Ghost 🤩
