Literally this, so much, forever, in so many ways that are hard to articulate and reach facets of life I never imagined.

Been avoiding this but it’s Super Important to have access to knowledge & experience w neurodivergence ASAP. A big source of lifetime torture among people with ADHD roots from inability to contextualize & put into words what we are experiencing both within & from how the outside world responds to us

Mercer likes the summer, it's usually his busy season (some monsters hibernate, and it's harder to hunt in the snow) and also the time of year he sees the most of his cousin. Flint likes autumn (also my favorite). Flint would dress for sweater weather year-round if they could. #queerwriterschat

hello #queerwriterschat, it's been a while since i joined from this account so i figure i'll give my penname a break this week. i'm Parker, ace/bi/agender writer of specfic, and i've been noodling with ideas for rewriting my old monster hunter novella series.

A lot of my gn work is adaptations and let me tell you; if you try to do it this way you are going to get the worst slop imaginable. I've seen what other co's have produced with this kind of thing. They are a MESS with truly no value. This is a collaborative medium for a reason.

Matthew Noe@noethematt.bsky.social · 6d ago

This is fucking gross and libraries have a duty to our communities to refuse to purchase books produced this way www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

overdo reading roundup! PBs first 📚👍 i enjoyed all of these, but as far as specific thoughts... The Bi Book: clever approach, v cute Stolen Colors: important but harrowing Good Hair Day: love the sweet queer hair feelings <3 Reborn: taught me something, plus awesome art!

Parker Goodreau@parkergoodreau.bsky.social · last mo.

i need to do a reading roundup soon but today i finished THE HYBRID PRINCE and am therefore caught up on Wings of Fire! it was so good, but now i must suffer the pain of waiting for these books to come out (and that cliffhanger was downright evil). at least there's still the shorts and legends.

Preeti Chhibber@runwithskizzers.bsky.social · last mo.

In honor of Dolly and her commitment to getting books to kids, tell me about a book you read as a child that changed your life. I’ll start: so many, but tonight maybe I’ll say A WRINKLE IN TIME, a book that taught me anger wasn’t wrong.

(emergency) My Mom’s condition is deteriorating and we’re running into constant roadblocks with her cancer treatments If you could donate or share our fundraiser it would be appreciated - i’m not ready to say goodbye to my mom

First Image: Document that reads as follows: We’re coming up on two years of my Mom being diagnosed with cancer. Before this, she had already struggled with chronic pain, iron deficiency, and endo - the effects of which have only been exacerbated by her condition. Unfortunately medical care in the United States is not cheap and she is no longer fit to work and I took on the majority of the financial strain - and with my day job only paying $18 an hour it was already an impossible feat that I had to supplement by taking on commission work and creating a queue that is a veritable mountain (to those waiting, thank you for being so patient). But her condition is getting worse and it’s still not enough and I am constantly having to choose between bills or her health. I love my mom and would move mountains for her if I could, but I don’t have the financial backing for this. If you could donate or share the gofundme it would be appreciated immensely. I don’t have a lot of family left and the family that would have helped have already passed. Second image: a screenshot of a gofundme asking for help with medical care

This thread. I mean, you always know that war destroys everything, but it seems like we have very little space in our news cycle to report on anything but the planes and tanks destroyed, the soldiers who died. This thread is about the books that burned, and the booksellers. Hugs when you're done.

📚 RUSSIA HAS DEFEATED the book market of my childhood. Let me tell you about a place you’ve never heard of. Petrivka. A book market in Kyiv, now called Pochaina metro. Before the internet existed for us, it was simply where you went for books...

TW: Suicide If you tell people you have SI, many are likely to suggest you call 988 or text the suicide lifeline. These are good resources *if you need to be kept physically safe;* they are not as helpful if your ideations are passive. Allow me to share some things that have helped me. /1

Parker Goodreau@parkergoodreau.bsky.social · 2mo ago

we made the romance club theme for next month "fanfiction," and i just happened to stumble upon a lovely Star Trek fic that is also *about romance novels* so that's the easiest decision for what to bring for book club i've ever made. god i love fandom (sometimes).

It would be great to get some community support for this book baby. Being a debut on bluesky is hard ❤️

Shreya Ila Anasuya - THE POISON PALACE@thresholdrose.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Cover reveal for the @littlebrown.bsky.social edition of THE POISON PALACE, about Eka, a poison maiden who is sent to kill Alexander when he invades ancient India. Cover art by the brilliant @micaelaalcaino.bsky.social. Pre-orders: linktr.ee/shreyaila Out January 2027!

A book cover for THE POISON PALACE against a swirling yellow patterned background. The cover itself has a dark blue background with red and gold detailing. It shows a young femme person between two red pillars, wearing a red and gold outfit and wrapped all over with a green snake. The pillars are covered with gold leaves and white flowers, and have war helmets facing outward and accompanied by green snakes with their maws open on the bottom of each pillar. The author's name is written below the figure: Shreya Ila Anasuya.

#QueerWritersChat All right, I've got three queer MG books out in the world: SKATING ON MARS, LINUS AND ETTA COULD USE A WIN, and GOING OVERBOARD. You can find them all here: us.macmillan.com/author/carol... Maybe request them at the library? Or buy them? Or recommend them to someone?
