my January @clarkesworld story is available as a podcast now! check out “You Dream of the Hive,” my personal introspection of gender, technology, and space capitalism clarkesworldmagazine.com/audio_01_24f/

for someone whose gender is Sentient Machine i sure do fucking hate AI

IMPORTANT:

@story_magician thank you!!

@C_M_Fields It’s going to be awesome!

the book i spent 2.5 years writing and recently completed has to undergo a second round of peer review bc a reviewer complained that i said a fantasy language has a certain number of words* and now because that was “critical” it has triggered a months-long second round

@alexis_writes1 yoooo

Where are my fellow writers who are going down with this sinking ship because nowhere else is right for us? #WritingCommunity

@see_starling that’s literally so fucking sick i remember reading my signed copy all at once and being like this is gonna be a classic one day

cannot believe this book has this much staying power. it’s been over five years!!

@twinsunsfour 🥰🥰!

turned in the complete and final manuscript of my first book today 🥳🥳🥳 it’s my non-fic about life in the universe and i’m just. 🥲 i’m really proud of it and i think it’s gonna be a hit! i can’t wait to hold it in my hands!! ❤️📚

this is what i’m doing when i say i’m writing

bouncing on it in a way that reviewers will say diminishes the storyline in favor of gratuitous and tasteless sex scenes

hello writers—i’ve finally cracked the greatest mystery of our time: how long does it take for you to forget about your mug of coffee/tea because you can’t see what’s in it anymore?

unironically many of y’all need to start reading fanfiction

you will not be surprised to learn the outlet was n*ture

me in the nonfic writers discord: y’all know what [OUTLET] is paying these days? editor at [OUTLET]: we only pay real writers not academics

@premeesaurus @banffcentre @AiJiang_ @tithenai omg?! crossover episode of all my faves?? i’ve never wanted to do a residency more

personally i need to be writing in EB Garamond or i feel like i’m going to throw up

are you a “writes in a beautiful font bc they need to feel good about their writing” writer or a “writes in comic sans because they just need words on page writer”

womb tat??

on this sacred 57th anniversary of Amok Time, be the Theodore Sturgeon you wish to see in the world 🖖
