If you are at the Sistah Scifi Book Vending Machine, and want to learn more about a title each book has a QR that you can scan for more information 😀. @OaklandiaCafexBakery is open M to F from 7AM to 5PM. If you live in Downtown Oakland, it's a great location to meet for coffee, pastry, and lunch 😋 👌🏿 😀.

Someday soon I am going to get an entire room in my house to arrange as a library, and I am going to have a really good reason to reorganize all of my books. Part of me wants to just throw all of my fiction together and alphabetize it. But this picture makes me dream of having an entire shelf of science fiction/fantasy with marine biology-inspired tentacly creatures. I think the Binti trilogy could also live here. What other books would you recommend for this shelf? . . Anyway, I have posted about Tentacle and Escaping Exodus before, but I just recently got The Trans Space Octopus Congregation, which came with its little octopus friend because I preordered it from @bogiperson’s Patreon account. It’s short stories (actually a spellbook, according to the introduction!) which I tend to be picky about, but I am very excited about it nonetheless. It’s hanging out on my TBR shelf, I am kinda sorta planning to save it for Christmas Break reading... . . #tentacles #tentacle #ritaindiana #achyobejas #escapingexodus #nickydrayden #thetransspaceoctopuscongregation #bogitakács https://www.instagram.com/p/B5V40iXAKZa/?igshid=4pygxj4mp64d

More Escaping Exodus swag! I ordered this book so long ago, this is definitely getting me hyped that it’s almost here! If you like the little trading cards, let me know! I have a stack and haven’t decided on homes for all of them yet, I am hoping to drop them in the mail (with maybe some other bookish nerdish goodness I’ve acquired) this week. . And reminder, if you want a pair of earrings to match a book you’ve written, a book someone you love has written, or just a book you’ve loved — I am open for commissions! Base price is $42 (more to include premium beads like crystals, precious metals, or glow-in-the-dark, less if we work out some sort of swap!) DM me if you are interested! . . #escapingexodus #nickydrayden #bookswag #booklove #blacksf #wocauthor #bookcovercoordinated #handmadeearrings #openforcommissions https://www.instagram.com/p/B2wucDggAHg/?igshid=1740eebfoohvy

Finished my pair of #bookcovercoordinated earrings for Nicky Drayden’s upcoming Escaping Exodus this weekend. Swipe for earring closeup. I love all the purples and greens in these — I liked the more pastel version, too, but I’m glad I tried this bolder version! (Sometimes it’s difficult to predict how translucent beads will look in a piece — how they look in a vial is NOT how they look in beadwork, which can depend on the color of the thread, the beads around them, etc.) . Also, I can’t wait for this book to come out! . AVAILABLE. $42, including U.S. shipping. DM to reserve or request a commission! . . #nickydrayden #escapingexodus #fanart #beadedearrings #handmadeearrings #brickstitchearrings #fringeearrings #danglyearrings #seedbeadearrings #purpleandgreen #madeinmichigan #lansingartist https://www.instagram.com/p/B1oRSUDAWds/?igshid=rnus4de2aedd

I CAN’T DECIDE — which set of colors to commit to? The slightly more pastel combination on top earring? Or the bolder colors on the bottom earring? . . #bookcovercoordinated #designproblems #beaderproblems #escapingexodus #nickydrayden https://www.instagram.com/p/B1gfzxTAzGF/?igshid=lkqu4725dnvq

My first pre-order swag! I love this sticker so much that it may be work to convince myself to put it on something rather than horde it in a box somewhere forever. And look! Little trading cards! How will I decide who to send them to? If you want this swag, too, I *think* there is some still available — follow @nickydrayden on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook for more info. But of course mostly, I can’t wait for the BOOK. . . #nickydrayden #escapingexodus #bookswag #preorderswag #booknerd #booklife #read https://www.instagram.com/p/B1cMdEQgSpS/?igshid=1thmqzowj3b6o
