To my many communities, #writer & #Witch: we have confidentiality agreements, asking we not share one another's words or work outside of the group. And yet... still you use ggl forms that feed the #techbros our info, feed the AI goblins that we fight. đ use cryptpad or similar.

(This post brought to you by the umpteenth time I've had to use ggl forms to register for something that has VERY strict confidentiality rules in place. ) đĄ
Testing out my new profile pic. Can you tell I'm smiling and wearing red lipstick??? đ
Well, it's Sunday, and the Redemption Center is closed... but I'm visiting via @andreahairston.bsky.social 's new novel!
Great characters, as always. Diverse includes a canine POV character! And maybe Easter eggs? ("Redwood" "wildfire")

Huge congrats @amalelmohtar.com on winning a #Nebulas2026 !!! Love The River Has Roots!
Finished The Everlasting by @alixeharrow.bsky.social . Highly recommended! (and soon will add to Great Reads on my site) Explores ways to hold power, find your values & truths. Find what you truly love. Intricately crafted, deep characters, breaks gender stereotypes. Wow! #BookSky #books #reading
Listening to yesterday's convo among #Nebula Best Poem nominees while assembling a file cabinet. Great company!

Thanks for speaking publicly @erniechiara.com . @nkjemisin.bsky.social also mentioned such experience in her #Nebulas2026 speech. Those of us who are white need to know this isn't a one-off. Everyone needs to know so we all can speak out.
Speaking of #Nebulas & @nkjemisin.bsky.social 's speech on #diversity (& barriers to in #SFF), I'm pleased to host @renanbernardo.com 's post on my site. Hope you'll read his important words about global representation.
