Writer of Norse-inspired YA Fantasy, paranormal romance, and horror. Words in Were Wolf and Loki (Flame Tree Press) + Ghoulish Tales #4. Aspiring Bigfoot
THE VALKYRIES, fierce warrior goddesses who guide souls to Valhalla, embody battle, fate and glory ⚔️🪽
We asked the authors of The Valkyries to describe their characters in one word! What word would you use to describe them?
OUT NOW! ⭐️
I dont ever wanna hear any of you talk about how artists should feel about their work and financial compensation. In the era of highten bs and a'i floods, please reconsider how you handle artists' hard work. This industry is already insane enough on them daily
I consider the use of AI in daily life a serious moral and intellectual failing. To willingly cede that which makes you human to a machine is shameful. The great threat to our species is not that automatons will destroy us but that we ourselves will become them.
Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.
people think we are too harsh on usage of gen-ai? i don't think we are harsh enough. this destructive technology is stealing jobs, damaging the environment, pushing propaganda, hiking prices, jeapordizing our own health and safety even. there are no benefits in supporting it.
The Valkyries | Call for Submissions - We are very excited to open up a call for submissions which is now open! The next addition in our Myths, Gods & Immortals series is: The Valkyries. Happy writing!

@HerringAli How much of a dealbreaker are older (5-10 years) comps? Auto throwaway?
I'm querying a boy-led lower YA fantasy, which means the closest comps that I've been able to find are a bit older. But I worry it's sinking me in the trenches, making the story seem out of date, not "fresh"
mild #bloodofzeus spoilers
i know it was a serious moment but I did sorta lol when Seraphim showed his demon form to Gorgo & thought she'd be repulsed
sir you know not the unholy thirst your demon form unleashed on 2020 Twitter. 100% chance your gf now thinks you're even HOTTER
@BloodofZeus man I would've LOVED to see a lot of what was mentioned in the article, but I understand the budget/time constraints. It's really amazing that you managed to condense the larger plan into a still-satisfying story! I'd love to see you guys get a longer series someday
Between The Righteous Gemstones + Blood of Zeus, I've said tearful goodbyes to two all-time favorite shows this week and my soul has been left in a bittersweet puddle😭
It's hard to see things end, but what a treat to get to experience the work and artistry of so many people 🩵
#bloodofzeus currently on episode 6 and writer's team HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME 😭😭
like i'm glad [redacted] gets to see a certain someone again but also GIVE [redacted] BACK
Heron and Seraphim, always! That one promo still of them in the underworld has me excited bc I loved the Power Wombmates finally fighting together in s2
also I'm eager to learn where Evios sauntered off to👀
@SenJohnCurtis I'm used to Utah congressmen being useless when it comes to actually having principles and standing up for their constituents.
But your silence is still, somehow, surprising. When are you going to say a SINGLE word about one of the biggest national security scandals in decades?
@dalewritesstuff It does sting a bit that YA as an age category has underserved so many readers that now it's viewed as a genre
Like I wish that people didn't go YA="girl books." But I know part of that IS publishing's fault rather than laziness + misogyny from readers (which is also a problem)
