Coming in VERY late for Pride Month since I haven't been on BlueSky since mid-May but I am, after all, lesbian all year round! And here's a fantastic selection of queer books in every color of the rainbow if you're planning to read queer all year.
We're celebrating Pride Month with queer indie and self-published SFF authors based on the colours of the Pride flag! Here are 30 authors, 5 per colour, across the vast spectrum of LGBTQIA+ SFF books:

One year ago today, brutal and racist Border Patrol raids began in Kern County, CA. They hunted down farm workers, violently detaining our union members and terrorizing our communities.
This began a year of deadly force across the US that continues today. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Arrived in RDU from SFO last night thru roughest turbulence i've experienced 😭 if there are any airplane experts here, what is going on when it feels like the plane is being tossed around, and there is a loud roaring noise? Are the pilots gunning engines or is that the wind?

Old style proofreading: the final frontier 🙃
It is really worth doing this even though I've gone over this mss so many times already. A few punctuation things, a few typos, and occasional unnecessary sentences or unclear dialogue tags add up!

Okay, okay, I give in, it’s 2025 awards eligibility time! I still have December stories coming, which means I cannot yet bring myself to make an extra-fancy graphic or a full long thread, but… until then, I hope you’ll consider reading some of my stories! Will link a couple favorites in the 🧵 (1/4)
