I tell people all the time that I got lucky with my career and it annoys a lot of them. "No, but you're good," they will say, and I will say, yes, I am good, and also here are all these people who write as well as I do but did not get the same break, so being good isn't the issue, being lucky is.
John Wiswell@wiswell.bsky.social · 6d agoI am 90% sure my career wouldn't have happened if a couple people hadn't retweeted one of my stories the exact minute they did. You work your hardest, but it's not in your hands. It breaks a lot of people.
The best, and that's according to me and @authoroux.bsky.social and we will be taking no questions. Or prisoners.

there’s an underlying plot within Legacy about this one sith girl and I need you all to know that is soooooooooooooo good I want to know more about her cause her story is just so!!! oughh @authoroux.bsky.social you absolutely cooked with this one dude 😮💨🤌
I wrote about the importance of literary friction and how the acts of thinking and learning and growing are anathema in our increasingly fascistic world. Which is all the more reason to double down on them. lithub.com/in-praise-of...

More than two years ago I wrote an angry piece about how lame the bulletpointization of books is: the point of reading and engaging with books is not so the reader can consume little bullet points …

A little BTS love for the @inkstonebooks.bsky.social special edition of LEGACY. Here are the sketches I sent for cover inspo. I’m in love with the direction they chose but I’ll always be geeked thinking about Rey with her sabers from THAT scene (IYKYK 😏)
@authoroux.bsky.social really makes each of the other ST stories connect in Legacy. From the other books to the Kylo Ren comics, even a reference to the Battlefront 2 campaign. It's really well done without distracting from the main story. It sort of addresses exactly that complaint with the ST era
I know I say this just about every time, but @inkstonebooks.bsky.social doesn't miss. Their exclusive edition of Star Wars: Legacy from author @authoroux.bsky.social is STUNNING. And the words inside are definitely worth your while. Man, I love Star Wars books.
Just me and @authoroux.bsky.social, droppin’ truths and tellin’ it like it is.

Seth on the Nihil@lordsoftheseth.bsky.social · 2w ago'Legacy' is so good, sequel trilogy box sets should be packaged with it and 'Shadow of the Sith'
i love when they recover some 3000 year old clay tablet and its something totally relatable like “i hope this tablet finds you well but the group project is a disaster…”

an absolutely generational fall off between x-men 97 seasons one and two. woof. 🥴
Q. Are there any problems that Reacher cannot solve simply by being larger than other men? A. There are not, and once you embrace this premise you will find your life simpler and more enjoyable.
some people really have the fucking audacity don't they

This boils it down to its essence, right here. Anyone who says that the Charmin bears taking a knee for racial justice or some shit in 2020 was an outrage that demands societal restitution but says nothing about what the backlash has wrought is an unserious person to be safely ignored.
Michael Hobbes@michaelhobbes.bsky.social · 2w agoThe excesses of the Woke 1 era mostly amount to cringe public statements, harmless vocabulary updates and loss of prestige for public figures. The backlash to Woke 1, on the other hand, is imprisoning dissidents, dismantling public education and eroding democracy. That's what needs reckoning
I finished Star Wars Legacy last night! Thank you @authoroux.bsky.social for giving the sequels some real love and creating a new all time favourite Star Wars character (people can guess which one). I now need to see these guys again soon! #starwarsbooks #starwarslegacy
You couldn’t water board this information out of me 🤐
callistos@callistos.bsky.social · 2w agodrop the @ queen 👀👀
a genuinely heartwarming experience is watching someone find your fics for a kind of niche fandom and then getting notifications all day into night as they work their way through your entire catalogue 🥹🥹 enjoy yourself, queen 🙏
Fun fact about #StarWarsLegacy. Among several inspirations that directed us toward Tython was a bit of storytelling from the Aphra #40 comic. The Martyrium of Frozen Tears on Tython begged the question - what other ancient structures related to the Jedi Order might be there?
The best bit about finishing the incredible Legacy novel? Being able to now watch the @starwarsexplained.com interview with the author @authoroux.bsky.social reveling in the Q&A and spoilers! ✅️An excellent story between TLJ & TRoS ✅️ Superb characterisations ✅️ Tyhton mysticism Review coming soon!
One of my friends got me the special cover edition of Star Wars Legacy at SDCC and was even able to get it signed by @authoroux.bsky.social 🥺🥹 I'm so excited to finally have this 🥰🥰
It's a lovely touch that @authoroux.bsky.social has made Lt. Connix a notable character in this book. Makes me smile.
