HOLD YOUR FIRE, featuring my short story “The Door” is available now! This story is an older one, close to my heart, about a little girl who can see magic and her aunt who has a door in her backyard. So happy to see Sofia and Giulia in print! https://t.co/OL1DLyYDEo

It smells like stew and freshly baked bread in my house, which officially means fall has come to Texas!

@DannieMOlguin Thank you for sharing these - I just grabbed A Song of Wraiths and Ruin (also wow that cover!)

@JoEatsFood I am in awe! And also in love with your rug

[Kristen Bickerstaff @kristenbwrites]

@christirmartin I’ve been filling the void scouring the internet for all the cosmere theories I must know about to scratch the itch 🤣

[Kristen Bickerstaff @kristenbwrites]

Happy Star Wars Day! Raising a glass of cold blue milk to you all 😉

Got a lot of reading done (mainly from OATHBRINGER) while babysitting this bad boy on the smoker all day yesterday.

[Kristen Bickerstaff @kristenbwrites]

My current #amreading delights. I did a full re-read of all things Sanderson before jumping into OATHBRINGER, and I’m really enjoying how everything is starting to click together for me in terms of the cosmere. Haven’t tried any bread experiments yet but soon!

[Kristen Bickerstaff @kristenbwrites]

@Adam_D_Jones Thanks, Adam! So glad you liked it :) I can definitely agree that magic and pirates definitely helps distract right now

[Kristen Bickerstaff @kristenbwrites]

It’s here! If you like pirates and short stories, check out this anthology, which features my short story “The Wish Shore.”

[WordFire Press @WordFirePress]

@AlmostWriting Sam says thank you! (Now throw the ball, Mom.)

[Kristen Bickerstaff @kristenbwrites]

So happy Friday from the floof. We made it another week, y’all.

[Kristen Bickerstaff @kristenbwrites]

It’s a scary time, and if you’re like me, reading fantasy has been a refuge from the overwhelming onslaught. So if you’re looking for something new to read, the pirate anthology I’m featured in, X MARKS THE SPOT, is now up for preorder! https://t.co/da9q6kf0sk
