Got a sneak peek from #Manta Real thoughts though.

Pst... they released a new feature to read novels chapter x chapter- & for 40 series!

I started with #FallingForTheEnemy bc I loved the comic. Even the 1st chapter provides SO much more depth to the story & world. 5⭐

Who's rereading #UnderTheOakTree for the new season? You *know* I was caught up before #Manta sent me the episodes to review! Real thoughts, though:

Maxi not fitting the 'perfect FL' trope is part of why she's my #1. SO ready for more cuteness w/her & Riftan!

Image in manwha/manga style on a swirling purple background, of a woman shocked and speechless. A soul wriggles out from her mouth at the shock of what she's looking at. Text reads: Speechless Text *bubble* reads: there's no way anyone could mistake that thing for a human!"

Got a sneak peek of #HowAboutACosmicHorror from #Manta 👀 Real thoughts though.

Honestly, I went in thinking this wasn't for me, but the dynamic between the FL & ML is intriguing. Had me smiling by the second episode. Looking forward to what happens next! 💗

Infinite Realms sounds awesome 🗳️

Scenes from The Beast Within on Manta. Collage of three images. Left half shows main couple facing each other. Clodan (ML) says, "I only bring things that I like up here," as he hand a book to Ray (FL). Top right is in Chibi art style and shows Ray springing off of Clodan's lap in surprise. She bears a strong blush. Clodan "tsks" and glares. Bottom right shows a split panel of Clodan smirking at FL, and Ray thinking, "He's telling us not to go up to the third floor. But yet, he speaks as if he wants us to visit..."

Scenes from The Beast Within on Manta Collage of three images. Left half shows a speech bubble from the FL's brother (Hayes) saying, "Ha! To an *illiterate fool* like her?" Above the image of a silent Ray (FL) with a cracking effect over her, as she takes his emotional hits. Top right shows Hayes kneeling on the muddy ground in the rain, shouting angrily at a fading Coachman & Driver in the background, "I'll get you for this!" Bottom right shows an angry, astonished Hayes sneering at his sister, "Nobody's at fault here but your tiny pea brain. If it were anyone else they would've known how to speak at least ten languages by now."

Scenes from The Beast Within on Manta. Collage of three images. Left half shows the old woman & ML's nanny (Della) looming and leaning towards the reader (FL's perspective) as she warns, "***Everyone in this manor is looking for a chance swallow you whole.**," Top right reveals rose bushes before a barely lit Cassel Castle, all beneath a dark, stormy sky. Bottom right shows an eerie passing farmer warning an off-view Hayes (FL Brother), "It's dangerous over there. NO one in this village ever goes in that direction," as he points

Got a sneak peek of #TheBeastWithin from #Manta 👀 Real thoughts though.

A realistically awful antagonist, romance, AND intrigue? Sign me UP!

As for Ray & Clodan... *Slow burn, who?* 😜😂 Can't wait to learn all the other secrets lurking in Cassell Castle!

Ok, who's ready/reading #HighSociety on #Manta? The ML iiiiiis rough. Red flags everywhere. The storyline is dynamic enough that it draws me in, though. Solid line in that first pic, even if it was an act.

Blight by Monroeroe Botanical Horror Short Story

Hey, #horror #writer folks! I just published my first short story, Blight. It’s a 1,500 word project. Funds for top surgery.

CW: body-horror, hallucinations, trypophobia, insects, corruption.

You are lost in the woods and become one with the forest.

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you?

Thank you!

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

Hi lovelies - I may be quieter on here 4 a while as I'm waiting for another transfusion and the list is 3weeks wait atm. The UK has a shortage of blood right now (esp type O which is me) please if you can give blood, be a hero and do it💪 - it saves lives ❤️🧛 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

If you can handle it, I find gentle stretching and laying flat on my back helps. Ideally with my legs raised on pillows. If flat doesn't work for you, maybe a wedge pillow lean? Takes the pressure off the low back when sitting upright-ish.

Feel better! ❤️‍🩹 Back pain suuucks.

For my back injury & fibro, I use a mixture of Chiropractor + Ice pack (the clay kind, so I can lean or lay on them) + Biofreeze/Icy hot patches + KT tape + NSAIDS (ibuprofen, Advil)

If it was a sudden injury, definitely x-rays and a good chiro.

Ok, I recognize Prison Love, but what are the others? 🫰🏻

I SURVIVED READING BANNED BOOKS ALL I GOT WAS SMARTER AND MORE EMPATHETIC

Pointing out there's no such thing as unskilled labor.

People who do labor-intensive work have specialized skills. People working on farms have a LOT of invaluable skills and specific knowledge. A random person can't replace them.

This is deeply fucked on many levels.

Black and white image. Background is of various patterns and textures. Foreground is a half sheet of paper with a handwritten, 9x3 grid. The top center box reads "Dark Castle Feral Field Cypher". All other boxes hold a letter of the English alphabet next to a depiction of various fantasy characters seen in the WebToon Canvas story, 'Dark Castle'. Letters 'Q' and 'Z' have no cypher match.

Not me getting up in the middle of the night to decode the #DarkCastle #FeralField cypher. Having this added element to a web comic is SO much fun!! It's giving me that flashlight reading under the covers giddiness I thought was gone come adulthood.

2025 Officially Marks The Start Of 'Generation Beta'—And Here Come The Jokes They had to go with *that* name? 😂

And the jokes are flowing.

Right? She's my favorite contemporary YA author! Her books helped urge me to learn more about mental health, and work through so many of my own problems as a teenager without feeling like something *An Adult* would use to do just that.

Cover of 'Dreamland' by Sarah Dessen, featuring the silhouette of a lone person standing on a pier, facing the horizon, under an overcast sky. The cover is in varying shades of blue. The person and pier are dark, and reflected the same in the sea. The title is in a white typewriter style font, and has a reflection-styled effect across the water as well. The cover art aptly portrays the contexts of isolation and sadness found within its pages. Transcribed Text: "Sarah Dessen, Author of This Lullaby, Dreamland"

Cover of 'Keeping the Moon' by Sarah Dessen, featuring denim shorts and sunglasses." Transcribed Text: "New York Times Best-Selling Author: Sarah Dessen, Keeping the Moon" Long Description: The image is the cover of a book featuring a person at about a 3/4 tilt wearing denim shorts with frayed edges and a button closure. They are down from below the navel to just above mid-thigh. The shorts dominate the middle of the cover. They are textured, with shades of blue and visible stitching, with a small embroidered daisy on the pocket, conveying a casual, worn-in look. Clipped to said pocket is a pair of pink-tinted sunglasses. Above the shorts, part of a bare midriff is visible. Below, bare thighs, and a thigh gap (noted because it's important to the story).
