One time a guy approached me on the street with a bible
Him: do you have a minute to talk about our lord and savior, Jesus Christ?
I just so happened to have a ✨larger bible✨
*pulled it out, made gaping, Tom Cruise eyes*
Me: ABSOLUTELY I DO.
He left.

Camille… I’d be good to you.
Camille Monfort, The 1896 Legendary Tale of "The Amazonian Vampire” a French opera singer that to this day say her tomb is empty, & her death and burial were nothing more than an act to cover up her case of vampirism, and that Camille still lives in Europe, now at the age of 154.

Romance 🤝 Horror
They are sisters. Wear your crown of flower and bone, revel in both the carnal and the carnage. What is romance but desire? What is desire but to consume? The only difference between a kiss and a bite is how deep the teeth go and both can kill.

For the past two years I’ve suffered harassment from Zach Rosenberg. I never wanted to make this public, but his ongoing bullying has made this impossible. I considered my conflict with him to be personal, it seemed inappropriate to drag it out into the public, inviting a dogpile

A while back, Chance sent a DM that made me uncomfortable. It had a sexual connotation but was ambiguous enough that it left me feeling unsure what to do. I'd already committed to being on his podcast and he was blurbing my book. 2/

Rather than potentially a bad joke or a misunderstanding, this is a pattern of behavior. Chance has a platform, albeit relatively small, and an ability to get books in his B&N. This creates a power dynamic. 4/

✨Transparency in small press publishing✨ a 🧵

Real writers sit down once a year and pen four books in a single sitting.
They leave their loved ones for a life in the bog.
They learn to croak and frolic with dragonflies.
They eat flies with their long, sticky tongues.
How important is writing to you? The answer lies in your commitment to write, every day. Do you write daily, and if not, why?
