Trans people are infinitely more brave than the entirety of amnesty international's leadership
I keep finding new levels of rage and exhaustion. Apparently it's bottomless. A single billionaire TERF can make Amnesty Int. show its belly but I'm somehow expected to continue living as if that amount of power isn't constantly lashing out at my trans siblings?

Today's writing has me wildly oscillating between "I'll fix this later" and "I'm a genius."
Combination of by author/series and size. This is a fool's errand as books in one series refuse to stay a single size.
Immigrant Punk@porcupunk.eurosky.social · last wk.Enough of the horrors and doom scrolling. Let's talk about something fun. How do you arrange your books?
The Knowing Doll is about a character whose backstory redemption arc is IMMEDIATELY hit with a corruption arc threatening to undo all her hard work.

Personally I will just continue to prove that I don't use AI by simply not creating dogshit thoughtless text conveying zero information in the guise of syntactically valid English—do you really think anyone is gonna look at that em dash here and think "oh yeah man, a computer CAN be that bitchy"
Financially support creatives who refuse to use AI. When a trad published book comes out with an AI cover/editing/whatever don't just decry its use, go buy that indie book on your TBR, read it, and leave a review. #SummerOfStories #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompt
Kayleigh Diaz @kayleighdiaz.com · last wk.29 | In an industry that is increasingly becoming saturated with AI-generated content, how do you feel about the importance of art & human creativity? (If this reads like an essay prompt, yes. Sorry. Teacher. 😅) Also, how do you fight against it? #SummerOfStories #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompt
This hurt, as a George Russell fangirl but also it was too funny not to make
I hope this starts a trend. We need this energy.
Oh I've got a great TBR lined up! But the first thing that's really got me jumping up and down to get started on is Ursula Le Guin's "Always Coming Home" I picked it up from the bookstore on Sunday, it'll be a minute before I can actually get to it but I'm HYPED! #SummerOfStories #WritingCommunity

Oh damn Backrooms actually kinda rocked my shit.
2 years ago I outlined an audio drama about soldiers trapped on an island during an alien invasion. The tension came from only being able to hear the apocalypse but not being able to help. Unfortunately the scripts never really... worked, so it's on the shelf. #SummerOfStories #WritingCommunity
Kayleigh Diaz @kayleighdiaz.com · last wk.27 | What are some ideas for stories you've had that never quite made it onto paper? Any monumentally daunting epics you'd like to tackle one day? Be as specific or vague as you'd like, vibes/crossovers and genre(s)-only welcome! 😊 #SummerOfStories #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #WritingPrompt

Original Combat Evolved still doesn't look old to me.
I am so excited to announce the release of my audiobook debut! I was so flattered (and nervous) when @hollidayvermont.bsky.social asked me to narrate THE KNOWING DOLL and return to the world of Untypical and Delilah. But I had such a blast doing it and I can’t wait for folks to listen.

Listen, I'm a lesbian for every woman but I ESPECIALLY need Agent Carolina to break every bone in my body. She has to be my cause of death. I will happily recreate that one unhinged Gianni Bebop rant.

There is a lot to say about the Nolan Odyssey movie. But one point that I think has not been emphasized enough is: this is a film about living in LA, as Nolan, my erstwhile British compatriot and age mate, has done for years. I gather it’s a strange place.

Writing a very long blog post yelling about Audible and my biggest concern is that I honestly don't have enough time to write all my problems down before my deadline of tomorrow evening.
