revealing your scaring the hoes type interests early on in a relationship is a good way to secure only hoes of bravery and fortitude that will craft horrible dreams and beautiful nightmares with you
parks closing at night for no reason other than to stop homeless people from having a covered place to sleep is high key insidious as fuck. what do you mean it’s closed?? it’s the outdoors
Author Applications for “Beyond the Galactic Tide” are Now Open!
Happy recruitment opens day! I’m so excited to announce that now through January 31st, 2026, we are accepting applications from authors interested in writing for our next anthology, Beyond the Galactic Tide!
Are you a fanfiction author? Have you been wanting to break into publishing your original fiction?
If the answer to both these questions is “yes,” then this may be the perfect opportunity for you! Duck Prints Press (the spiffy indie press founded by fandom author unforth to publish the original work of fancreators) is looking for approximately 15 authors to write all-new, original stories, 5,000 to 7,500 words long, for a minimum pay of $75 per story! What will these stories be about? TL:DR, ACE…. IN…. SPAAAAAACE! For the slightly longer version, we’re soliciting pitches for stories about asexual characters in outer space settings. Are they exploring? Are they settling? Are they traveling? Are they just livin’ life and vibing? You tell us!
Every pitch must include:
- Setting: Space!
- People: at least one main character who is on the asexuality spectrum
- Genre: any that can reasonably be placed into space
- Relationships: any or none
- A happy ending!
Curious how to apply? If you are over the age of 18 and have posted at least 3 completed fanfiction works totaling a minimum of 10,000 words, then you are qualified to apply, and you should follow these links to learn all the deets – how to apply, what to submit, how long pitches should be, and more! Only applicants who meet our fanfiction requirements will be considered!
The application period ends when the last timezone in the world hits 11:59 p.m. on January 31st (which I approximate to 8 a.m. Eastern time on February 1st), so make sure to get your applications in before then!

I want to write more in 2026. And there’s only one way I can do it—by writing the most self-indulgent garbage you have ever seen.
heres my challenge to everyone for next month, for black history month. any time you want to draw inspiration from art, like poetry, music etc, pick a black artist. web weave with langston hughes and james baldwin and jamaica kinkaid and hanif abdurraqib and derek walcott and set your edits to meghan thee stallion and beyoncé and eartha kitt and coltrane and invoke basquiat in your art and it can be fanworks or original stuff and importantly, it doesnt have to be about race. obviously be cognizant of the context of the art youre using because a lot of the artists i mention specifically create art about racism but like. take your white doomed yaoi ship and make a webweave to poem by langston hughes. set an edit to body by meghan thee stallion. engage with black art in all contexts.
you can reblog this. other people should also be exposed to this idea.
