This was totally ridiculous fun. If you enjoyed the “Smile Time”episode of Angel, you’ll probably dig this.

Maybe this is short notice, but last October I shared a new micro fiction horror story each day on my Substack. I want to do that again. Can you all get me something by September 28th? Micro fiction. Horror. Gothic, atmospheric and dread over gore.

I think lots of us have encountered that person who wants to *have written* a book, but doesn't want to do the hard work of actually writing one. That's where gen-AI comes in. *sigh*
Lauren Elise (L. E.) Daniels@ledaniels.bsky.social · 6d agoDelighted to share my essay from the POV of an editor on gen-AI published on @ruadanbooks.bsky.social Thoughts from the Writers Desk: ruadanbooks.com/an-editor-on...
We are dealing with a lot of ongoing and unexpected expenses helping one of our cats with a serious medical issue. If you'd like some fun t-shirts, art prints, or entertaining books, this would be a great time! Links in quoted. Cat tax photo... Mr. Chester appreciates you 💜

Brian Keene@briankeene.bsky.social · last wk.Reminder: @scaresthatcare.bsky.social’s annual charity event, AuthorCon, is way less expensive than StokerCon. Readers & authors will get more from the programming than any other con because I singlehandedly curate it to do just that. scaresthatcare.org/author-con Guest of honor list update soon!

So I really enjoyed this, though I think I need to watch it a couple more times to take everything in. I will gladly go wherever Jane Schoenbrun wants to take me. (And KEVIN MCDONALD was in it! I had no idea! How cool.)

every billionaire & tech mogul, they all want to be adored & celebrated without doing the things Dolly did with a fraction of the power & money. What she had, she gave away. I'm sure she was comfortable (& that's good!). But she just relentlessly helped. It's not that difficult. Love. Care. Help. 💚🌸
Being hit with some big vet bills for this beautiful boy, so if you've ever considered buying any books or art from me, this would be a great time! 💜 t-shits, prints and more: www.helenwhistberry.com/art-links books! www.helenwhistberry.com/book-links Patreon: www.patreon.com/cw/whistberry
