I’ve had such a rough weird day, but inexplicably the writing is flowing.

Honestly the floor isn’t low enough for where my jaw is.

I named a book series after it!

I find myself increasingly impatient with books like this. If you’re gonna do lyrical prose, then do it, and have it actually mean something. If you’re doing something else then start with that. You’re boring the tits off me.

So many books start like they’re trying to impress and I just find it annoying. “The dawn had come. It was a whispering dawn, a deep dawn, it spoke of salt and smoke and the secrets in the hearts of the Sullivan sisters.” And like what does that even mean.

Yeah you’re right and thank you, I wasn’t sure if I was just being ridiculous or I’d embarrass myself

Yeah this is interesting because it is a plain gmail address and I was wondering if that meant it wasn’t real!

Thanks hon! I will

I’ve tried - they don’t have an email listed, just a contact form! So annoying honestly. Thanks for the suggestion tho and also just for understanding how ridiculous this is.

Just got an email requesting an interview for a podcast and I genuinely have no idea if it’s real or not. How do you figure out if something is real or not?? I’m this close to emailing who they claim to be from and asking lol. Help me.

It’s always when there’s that one email I don’t want to deal with that my inbox gets out of control. Also I think I’ve messed something up due to my depression and anxiety based nonsense and I’m so sad about it.

The entire Republican Party has adopted the mannerisms of 4chan shitposters. This is who they are now, just a bunch of shitposters performing for their Nazi audience on X

“This is why Andor is the only good Star Wars!“

Andor delivers an incredibly similar message about fascism and how it operates, it’s just longer and more elegantly delivered.

Also very funny that it’s the near invisible labour of a white woman, a Black man, and a Latino man that fixes things, and that the audience pays zero attention to what this means and focusses on the one bad line in the whole set of movies and the fact that the white nazi died.

Unless of course you somehow think that “people rest on the laurels of their heroism and nostalgia and allow fascism to creep back in, forcing the next generation to fight what you let return” isn’t pertinent to our current situation, of course.

And of course in the replies they’re moaning about the sequels, which do the exact same thing only the technical aspects are done better.

Yup.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a giant squid wearing a yellow Bart t-shirt and some terrible hypebeast shorts is looking in the mirror. It says, “need groceries… but all my clothes are in the laundry.” Panel 2: the squid, now also wearing hot pink crocs, exits its apartment and says, “eh. I won’t see anyone.” Panel 3: two fisherman are pulling the squid to the surface of the water and pointing at it. An overlayed news caption reads: RARE SQUID SIGHTED - the fit was crazy

Even if AI could write a novel what problem has been solved? The problem of knowing what you’re reading was written by another person? Who loves reading novels but hates the part where your mind briefly and mysteriously touched another?

Just got an AI scam email that claimed to be from an *editor* at *Mira Books*, saying they want to make a *promo video* for While You Were Seething because they loved it so much. Sometimes it seems like they’re getting better at this, and then they pull this out of their asses.

The illustrated cover of DESIRE AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA by Olivia Dade, featuring a sunset and rocky cliffs in the background near a sandy shoreline, with an embracing couple in the foreground. The woman is brunette and fat and pretty, with her hair swept back. She's wearing a Grecian-style dress and has her arms around the neck of a dark-haired, lean man with glasses in a dark gray suit.

One of my self-published novellas, DESIRE AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA, has a gorgeous new cover from @lenikauffman.bsky.social and a new audiobook narrated by the incomparable Joy Nash--and that audiobook is out today!

I hope you love the cover and the story! ♥

My only issue with Your Monster is that it’s not seventy hours long. I want it to be made into a tv show and get ten seasons of it.

I woke up with the exact way to start this scene in my head and now it’s flying.
