Hi! I'm a scifi & fantasy writer based in New York

Enormously curious about the world we all share

On here to show a bit of my work, discuss the writing craft, & gain inspiration from the many talented folks on Twitter

Check out some of my writing at https://t.co/Y6qh9c27kB

The owner of this platform just explicitly told you to vote for a party that is trying to take my rights away & endorses nazis

This is my last post on Twitter.I'm deleting the app

Find me on Mastodon at @AlextheZee or my website at https://t.co/vLvryAPnMF…

To independent-minded voters:

Shared power curbs the worst excesses of both parties, therefore I recommend voting for a Republican Congress, given that the Presidency is Democratic.

@raynayler @texasbookfest That's amazing!

@MJSEyesOpened @PaulDragonwolf1 @SeanLemonhead Please explain how Mastodon is divided into silos?

@PatrickAllies If you follow the rotisserie chicken guy, it doesn't matter what server you're on, you'll see the people he follows and you'll be in that community

@GioWrites It's the lifeboat for Twitter users. Another social media destination

Hey friends

Figured I'd share my impressions of Mastodon from the first 24 hours:

-easy to sign up
-nothing but friendly people
-a lot of real engagement; has a community vibe to it
-I see posts from people I follow. I don't get a ton of ads & click-bait

@Nick_A_Writes What's your Mastodon handle? 😁

If you like this story, find me on Mastodon under the same handle: @AlextheZee

The scepter stands at the tip of the #promontory
Supported only by its own magic
It's been years since anyone raced to grab it
The dragons that call the surrounding cliffs home make short work of most
All this flashes thru my mind as I run
And hear the beat of wings

@Int_stellarLamb Certainly
Mastodon is just another social app
But it's a LOT more friendly. Feels like a combination of early 90s internet and the very best parts of the #WritingCommunity when everyone is being kind and helpful

[John Bull @garius]

Right. As a heavy tweeter/content creator who is now maintaining BOTH a Twitter and Mastodon presence, here is a short guide to what I have set up, how to do it and lessons I've learned, for others.

TLDR: It's been WAY less hassle than I expected thanks to tips from followers /1

[🍗 Alex Zoubine @AlextheZee]

@VeraBrook1 When you try it out... I have the same handle there as here
Happy to help out if you need any tips -- feel free to dm me 😁

[🍗 Alex Zoubine @AlextheZee]

@recinber Woohoo! I have the same handle there

Should be easy to find

P.S. I'd recommend Tusky (android) or Mast or Tootdon (iOS) if you are using mobile

@derpo377 Spoiler: it all ends very disappointingly, with a few die-hard fans yelling about how you just didn't "get" it
