Refused an invite to a sex party because they use AI to make all of their flyers…

Miami just canceled its November election and pushed it to 2026. No public vote, just canceled. As a result, term-limited officials like Mayor Suarez and Joe Carollo get to stick around an extra year. That’s not democracy; it’s a power grab. If one city can delay elections for “participation,” what’s to stop others from doing it to silence opposition?

Hey @voodoonauts, I'm doing some writing sprints. Like black-eyed peas or greens as new year traditions, we're writing our way into a year filled with words. Hop onto the discord and we'll ring it in Voodoonauts style! #BeBlessedAndBlessings

The campaign is just under halfway funded and I know y'all are hungry for this work because you showed up for (RE)LIVING MYTHOLOGY! I'm so jealous I'm not in this book and the only way I can survive not being involved is by reading it from covet to cover. Help me read it please.

With writers like @EugenBacon, @dsfxyz, Tobias S Buckell, TL Huchu, @somto_Ihezue, and @Penprince_, we know this anthology is gonna be hot fire! Honestly I'm surprised it's not funded yet! But there's still time!

Gods bless the creative minds of @WTalabi, @brittlepaper, and @Syllble for shepherding MOTHERSOUND: THE SAUÚTIVERSE ANTHOLOGY (@press_android). African-based mythologies and cultures sharing plants in a system as well as magic/tech based on sound and the oral tradition?

Just a friendly reminder that my Ignyte-Award nominated short story WANDERLUST (that's so wild to type) is available for consumption as a podcast. And that if you enjoy it, the Ignyte Awards are open for voting until June 30th and I'd appreciate the consideration.
So.... my #IgnyteAwardNominated, very melanated, multiverse-spanning romcom, short story WANDERLUST arrived at @escapepodcast (originally published @anathemaspec). Narrated by moi and hosted by @tinaconnolly. Please give it a listen! escapepod.org/2023/06/01/esc…

Re-upping this one for lovers of Trans Narratives, respite from dysphoria, longing, elegant prose, science fiction, and letting go.
Theodora Ward isn't on Twitter but her story WANT ITSELF IS A TREASURE IN HEAVEN is live in the current issue of @UncannyMagazine alongside new fiction by @fran_wilde @kswalkerwrites @aliettedb and nonfiction by our instructor/beloved @sentencebender. uncannymagazine.com/article/…

Re-upping this one because the cover is killer and my friend wrote this story of matriarchs and looms, regret and withholding, having a purpose that becomes a prison and Sapphics. Alyssa put their foot in this one.
#GhostClassMate @acgreenest deployed another @ClarionUCSD story at @lunaquarterly. In SILK, Natalie has sequestered herself to a life of art, regret, and ghosts when her ex comes asking for a curse she cannot name and Natalie could never explain.

Okay, folks, we've had some time. @Lisa_teabag's debut collection DRINKING FROM GRAVEYARD WELLS came out in March from @kentuckypress. Now which was your favorite original story in the collection? (Asking for a friend...)

I think this will be a fantastic way to binge write a novella I've been dreaming.

I'm doing broad-stroked outlines for the four acts, figuring out how they begin, end, and what I want readers to feel when we arrive at those points.
Day six of the #24hrnovel countdown! How are you preparing for the event? What extra steps are you doing to get ready? Preparing snacks, setting up work workspace, or screaming into the void all count as preparation! #amwriting #WritingCommunity
