Satan in hell: hey Charlie Kirk did you ever read The Lottery by Shirley Jackson
Lovecraft: she's saying that this ChatGPT image she made clearly indicates that the trans are homophobic Barker: this image is gibberish Barker: wait how do YOU understand it, howard? Lovecraft: i understand all the eldritch gibberish languages from beyond the bounds of sanity
It's profoundly saddening to read that AP will no longer be assigning or running book reviews because readers don't engage with them enough and they take too much effort to plan and assign. People complain about critics as gatekeepers; wait until all that's left is marketing.
Praying for Netanyahu’s cancer, but on the side of the cancer.
when you post like a pervert you lose those who are lost but gain those who are enlightened by the forces of toxic yaoi
So Twitter suspended my account. If you were an oomf please find me again at my new handle @/isanaisreading 🖤
Smallest child just informed me that there are two ghosts living in our house. One came with the place, and the other has been following her since she was a baby.
Are you seeing this?? If yes, post ghost 👻
If you see this, post a ghost 👻
Americans if you read one book this year, please make it this one.
I’m sorry but I can never leave Twitter. You just can’t find this anywhere else.
Happy Pride to all my friends inside my phone 🏳️🌈
Here is my personal philosophy, based on several decades of watching publishers go under: the moment a publisher is late on money because they don't have it, they are the enemy and your goal is to get your rights back.
Looking at this and wondering if the author got paid.
Seems like Unbound should be the target of a massive lawsuit.
So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS. Please read and share this thread.

Crowdfund publisher rebrands after collapse leaves authors unpaid
The ‘disruptive’ publishing house Unbound has gone into administration, leaving authors fearful for future royalties — now it hopes to turn over a new leaf

They owe me about £75,000 and never made a single one of their scheduled repayments. My US books are all a sublicense of my Unbound deal, so all US royalties went to them, for them to take a cut and then deliver the rest to me. They collected 18 months from Penguin Random House and gave me $0.
Resharing more of my commissioned artwork! This time it's Ash and Lonan from my Folk series, a fae romance trilogy, by my good pal and amazingly skilled artist @bloodwrit.bsky.social 🖤 I love this one so much. Especially their clothes! And I love the way Vic draws Lonan in particular. So beautiful.
Banned twice on Twitter this week, let’s see if third time’s a charm?
Children in Gaza are being starved to death by the Israeli government and it’s all being done in full public view. Newborns, babies, toddlers, kids are being starved to death right now.
