man as an afab nb with long hair and no intention of cutting it and tits too big to bind i rly have no way to not look cis. cis people rly see me on the streets n think we have the same vibe….. frightening. 

oh dear ima stop this post right here to say i found a stinkbug on my ceiling 

[sheep-venom]

anti-dysphoria stinkbug: if you didn’t have long hair, you wouldn’t have had that scrunchie on you and i would have been slightly harder to wrangle

me, sobbing: i understand why you came to me, i understand the lesson in self acceptance you wanted me to learn. nb has no “look” and i can just present in whatever way suits me.

anti-dysphoria stinkbug: you’ve learned well.

#where’s 👏 that 👏 life 👏 changing 👏 field 👏 trip

[sharpdeer]

So I never formally introduced myself!

My name is Avery/Aki! I write YA Fantasy, NA Paranormal, and a handful of other things. I have been writing pretty much my entire life, but only in the last few years have I been seriously pursuing it.

Here are a list of my projects (and I have decided to do tag lists, so if you would like to be added to one, just let me know!)

Ihale

Book 1, The Rising Stones, on Amazon

Book 2, The Abandoned City, coming in 2020

Book 3, A Dark Congregation (working title, in progress)

Ihale is the story of families coming together, being torn apart, love, oh and ancient magic, old gods, blood feuds, and how history is written by the victor.

Bel and Heln didn’t know taking a shortcut would end up changing the course of history.

Ghost Punch

Book 1, Grim Reflection, coming in 2020

Book 2, That’s the Spirit (in progress)

Shay can touch ghosts.

Therefore, she can punch them.

A powerful enemy can control spirits and has besieged the town of Teton Falls. Shay and her friends have to do everything in their power to keep everyone safe.

Keeper of the Doorway

Book 1 (not title yet, in progress)

Amber was supposed to go to Paris, but instead she has to stay with her weird, reclusive step-brother Eric in his too big house in the tiny town of Harmony, Oregon.

When weird things start happening, she finds out that under the house there is a doorway that is letting a terrible power leak into their world.

Shadow Cast

Book 1, Carry Me Home (working title, in progress)

Xander lived in a small, boring tourist town with a lake and some trees.

Lukas was just supposed to stay for a few weeks.

Then everything went terribly, terribly wrong.

Witch Hat

Aileen assists in the hunt for a serial killer who murders witches with the help of her familiar: her hat.

Last Light

Book 1: The Necromancer’s Curse

Andy is assigned to help Nathaniel with research on vampires, but the closer he gets to the truth the more dangerous it becomes.

And Nathaniel has a secret.

Rift (aka Magical Boy Matt)

Matt wasn’t able to use magic, until Zeke stole a piece of technology from Hard Light Magic. Now he can transform and has to use those powers to fight the forces of evil.

Thief and Guard (working title)

He was a thief. He was a guard. Can I make it any more obvious?

Break the Sky (working title)

Wizard Cowboy Mortimer is tasked by an elf tribe to track down a new water spirit when their own disappears.

Threadbound

David has to find a new place to grow the Tree of Knowledge, but there are a few speed bumps along the way, including running into his old classmate.

Happy Holidays! May the rest of this year and the next be gentle to you and yours

Aromantic science fiction and fantasy! I’ve been working on this one on-and-off for over a month, so I’m glad I can finally share it with all of you.

If you’re looking for more aromantic fiction, I suggest checking out Claudie Arseneault’s database for aro and ace fiction. 

The book length works are all either in the Queer SFF Database or due to be added over the next few months. Note, the results page only shows ten at a time, so you need to scroll to the bottom and click “previous” to see more.

My other queer SFF book posts can be found through my master list. 

I also previously wrote this post on aromantic fantasy stories. 

Below the cut you can find the titles and authors from the slides above. Links go either to the database, Goodreads, or the story itself (for the free short stories). Enjoy!

Keep reading

Me: oh hey a list of aro-inclusive books, cool! Me: *blithely scrolling down* Me: *FREEZES* *DOUBLE TAKE* OH MY GOD THAT IS MY BOOK. SOMEONE REMEMBERED MY BOOK. WOW. OMG. *heart eyes for days*

[sharpdeer]

Also The Rising Stones by A. Lawrence has an aromantic main character

[toesucker]

ok, let me explain

I’ve never really done anything like this before. I just wanted to make a comic based on the greatest post on this website and I wanted it to become more and more detailed as it went along. It took me a little over a year to finish and it was all made without using a tablet.

Please click on the individual images to get the full experience. Thank you.

How many books are gonna be in Ihale and Ghost Punch (approximately?) Who is a character you have a hard time writing? Who is the easiest to write? What kind of character do you wish you could put into a WIP?? Also if we get a physical copy of a book can u sign it :3

Ihale is going to be... five books probably? Four or five. It’s hard to say I am very bad at planning.

Ghost Punch... well. I have no idea. Seven seems nice? We’ll see.

I have a hard time writing Rhyss sometimes. I don’t have to write from his POV but Finnias can be hard. Heln can be a little difficult just because I have to make sure it’s all him and not me.

I want more DRAGONS. I am a simple writer, I have simple needs.

Of course! I’m going to try to start doing the con circuit again next Fall and I’ll have books available at the table, with any luck! I should get them printed professionally but I’ve always kind of wanted to learn book binding so... (I’m kidding I’ll get it done professionally. Or will I?)

Thanks for the ask!

Just in case

[sappire-charizard]

I’m actually going to reblog a thing just because this is really important.

As someone who has epilepsy and used to have several grand mal seizures a day, I’d also like to add that “offer help” can range anywhere from keeping the person calm to explaining to them where they are and what they were doing to even just telling them they should sit and rest for a while longer (lack or coordination is common, and it can be hard to walk straight or see clearly).

It’s okay for them to take up to a half hour to fully regain their bearings and sort out what they were doing prior to the seizure. Just answer any questions calmly and be there for support.

If they come around and you start to panic or shake them or ask them what the heck is wrong with them they are going to freak out and panic too.

I cannot stress it enough that this is bad.

If someone has a seizure and they come out of it, please. please stay calm. They are likely disoriented and confused, even if it’s only for a minute or two, and you don’t want them panicking on top of that because they can have another seizure as a result.

[felicityredbarrow-blog]

IMPORTANT

[happylittleblogger]

IMPORTANT because last year a kid in my class had a seizure, none of us even knew he was at risk for them either so just cause you don’t think you know anyone doesn’t mean you don’t 

stay safe

[kyuofcosmic]

I have to stress how important it is to time a seizure. If it lasts more than a few minutes, call an ambulance.

DO NOT CALL THE POLICE. I’m dead fucking serious. I had a grand mal in public once and the POLICE were called and imagine coming out of the seizure, feeling like you got smacked in the head with a sack full of bricks, confused, dazed, in desperate need of some sugar to boost low blood pressure and some DIPSHIT has called the police and I was being threatened with being ‘drunk and disorderly’. It took a phone call to my doctors office to get them to back off. The police cannot properly deal with sick people. 

Offer help can be:

assuring person where they are/what time it is

getting them something to drink if they can; seizure burns so much energy and does cause a blood pressure drop

getting them safely to transport or a carer

getting them some dignity like a blanket/towel [loosing control of your bladder and bowels is fucking horrifying]

ensuring they have a way to get home. Someone who has just had a seizure should NEVER DRIVE straight after

calling emergency services if you notice any of these symptoms because they may have stroked out.

Why you shouldn’t put anything in someone’s mouth: they will choke. Yes, they may bite their tongue but I can assure you it’s less traumatic than cracking your jaw on someone’s greasy wallet or choking on a spoon.

DO NOT HOLD ANYONE DOWN. Example: someone pinned my right shoulder mid-seizure a few years back and how I have a permanently displaced and clicking shoulder. Let the person flail around, those muscles are out of control and restraining them does cause more damage to the patient and you.

[earthybitchywitch]

ALSO QUICK LEGALITY: YOU HAVE TO RECEIVE CONSENT TO HELP THE INDIVIDUAL BY LAW. I recently got trained with First Aid and Red Cross now makes it so you know how to help with seizures too, and the first thing you do when you’re trained is say “hi. My name is (name) and I am able to help, is that all right?” Do not leave the persons side until further help is received in the clear.

My brother is epileptic and this is IMPORTANT. Please give this a read!!
