Something I as a tech services librarian recommend: As soon as you hear about a forthcoming book you’d like to borrow, go to your library’s catalog and try to place a hold. There’s a good chance a record is already there. Strong demand stats help us plan—and look good to trustees & administrators. 📚

I love reading from my own work, almost as much as I love listening to authors read their stories. It's so nostalgic - a "Gather 'round, everyone, it's storytime!" feeling.

I’m not done yet but this last sentence feels like the spiritual essence of COUNTESS. And damn, is it a feeling I think many of us marginalized folks can relate to. I will read all the “you won’t kill me today” characters from @sillysyntax.bsky.social

I don't have a cover yet for my upcoming Southern Gothic fantasy release, Psychopomp & Circumstance, but I do have a well-developed ability to do creative things other than writing.

Brilliant and truthful advice. They call us 'writers' and the craft 'writing' because creation requires action. Becoming a good writer requires action. Do, or do not. And there is no goal, no destination, only the journey.

It's an honor to be nominated for a Nebula. But it wasn't until the announcement, when I learned the names of the nominated works, that I was able to calibrate that. Awards are cool, but it's being included in this group of works and authors that makes me feel humbled, happy, excited, proud.

My first intro to @edenroyce.bsky.social writing and this read was amazing! I felt shocked and yet it was so perfectly hidden in the background of the narrative the entire time. I love this book so much, it may be my favourite out of the entire series!
