“I’m the eighth deadly sin, Willful Insanity! Pride isn’t the root of all sin, because that’s me! All of you demons are weak-a**, pale reflections of me, because humans would have to be crazy to sin!”
--The Hunter's inner demon as she faced the invading legions of Hell, in my novel Demon for President!
Group mentions are at end so take care to remove the groups before replying. I figured I would ask the community! Since Threads users can see our replies and top level interactions now, what books, publishing, writer, or #accessibility accounts do you recommend that do not have a native Fediverse account? If they have a native Fediverse account, I would rather follow them natively. I know about John Green and already follow his Threads account with this account but I’m looking for others. @disability@bookstodon#Publishing
Love this! via The Publishing Post |“Emerge, Return, one of the band’s darker albums, embodies the response of two songwriters triggered by the books they have read. These songs have been described by him as inseparable synergy between the story and its reader along with being steered by the journey of the band.
The Bookshop Band was formed when a group of musicians and Mr B’s Emporium of Reading Delights in Bath got together. They respond to the books they read by writing songs and performing for bookshop audiences”
Ashen Blades centers on the life of a half-demon girl with a serious bone to pick with demon-kind, because they murdered her parents. Read her story as she protects the human race, just like a shepherd defending their flock from a pack of ravening wolves.
When a snake demon in an expensive, tailored suit takes an irreverent stab at American Presidential politics, the Hunter takes a literal a stab at him, to save the nation!
However, with both parties back a demon, does it matter which one wins?
Careful, or we might get a Demon for President!
Excerpt from Tales of the Incorrigible: A Song of Wood and Meat about a poet who lived the dream.
The story takes place in an absurd far future. Ting was an acquaintance of both Greasly and Throom. Ting spoke often of his "poet friend". That's all you need to know for this.
===========
Greasly told Throom the story of Brio Tojita. At the time that Ting knew Tojita, the poet was living comfortably off the proceeds from his best-selling poem “A Haiku Concerning the Fire Flowers of Southern Knurl As A Metaphor for the Endless Possibilities of Recombination.” In fact, Ting met the poet at a reception following a public reading marking the fiftieth anniversary of the poem’s publication and celebrating it as the most successful debut poem by a young left-handed poet in history, excepting two.
At the reception, Ting asked Tojita to read some of his other poems. He was shocked at Tojita’s response: “There are no others.”
Tojita had never written another poem. That evening Ting had heard Tojita’s entire corpus of work---all seventeen syllables of it. He carried in his mind the entire life’s work of a best-selling poet!
Ting had told Greasly that he remembered it word for word, but even in an otherwise empty room on a ship in Flitzville, he would not recite it. The reason being that the poem’s publisher was Gatekeep and Gouge.
Gatekeep and Gouge were notoriously keen on squeezing every last millimoola out of their properties. In the case of “A Haiku Concerning the Fire Flowers of Southern Knurl As A Metaphor for the Endless Possibilities of Recombination,” they completely removed it from print to better be able to control its distribution. Instead, they sent it out on reading tours every ten years. The rest of the time it was kept in the “G&G Vault,” safe from the eager eyes and ears of the public.
...
“He never did tell you the poem?” Throom asked.
“Never.”
“I wonder if it was any good?”
“Ting said it dragged a little in the middle but picked up at the end.”
Uncle Sam said, “I want you!”
Uncle Sam wanted men for the Vietnam War.
We rarely get the things we ask for.
Uncle Sam got a small half-demon witch girl with a talent for demon extermination.
In exchange, she got a chance to follow the trail of an old enemy.
"Sugar and spice and everything nice?" Perhaps the standard, off-the-shelf girl may be made from such things, but this half-demon girl?
She isn't sweet, she isn't nice and you really shouldn't call her spicy, because she's got a magic hat full of weapons, a bad attitude and a mischievous sense of humor.
The Wizard's Scion centers on the life of a great wizard's son as he grows from a teen with barely any control over his magic to a powerful wizard that's master of arcane secrets all his own. Follow his adventures as he grows to maturity, both in magic and in life experience.
Levi mourns the recent loss of his parents, but old enemies of his father refuse to give him the time to grieve.
A deposed price with a time machine seeks the throne of a vast, star-spanning empire, scouring history for allies to strike at Levi's father in the past, when he's vulnerable.
Born of human heart and mind,
The Gods thought man blind:
Science stole man’s heart,
Forcing Gods to depart.
A refuge built, a new home made,
Which man did invade!
The Four Horsemen rise,
For man’s action wasn’t wise!
The Gods may be forgotten,
But a war has man begotten!

Facebook actually tried to censor one of my books! Can you believe that? Has this happened to anyone else?
In my case, it seems to come down to their software being unable to tell the difference between political satire and pushing a fake political candidate.
