I have been struggling with ways to help. We need more Black creative voices in this world. If you are a Black artist looking to break into SFF or art advice please feel free to DM and we can schedule a portfolio review and a time to talk. Thanks to @Planetpinto for this idea

Hi. If you saved and worked your ass off to pay for college and you are angry at people and system that could now make it free, you are angry at the wrong thing.

COVER REVEAL for Nothing But The Rain by Naomi Salman! The rain in Aloisville is never-ending, and no one in town can remember when it started. With every drop that falls on skin, a memory is washed away. Design by @CFoltzer

3 years ago I met @ChuckTingle at the Tor Booth at SDCC. Today, I got to announce that he’s officially joining the Tor Nightfire family. I love this timeline, for all its faults. CAMP DAMASCUS, coming July 2023. The most terrifying trot yet.

IT CAN BE TOLD: LOVE IS REAL WITH @ChuckTingle x Nightfire!!! tor.com/2022/07/22/nig…

I suspect most artists think ADs enjoy telling artists what to do but honestly the opposite is true. The best jobs are collaborating with a vague idea of where youre headed but both artist & AD happily surprised where you end up.

Books that require heavy conceptual thinking are my favorites to work with artists on; the collaboration often reveals ideas/connections I could never achieve on my own. That little 'click' when things start to work? Sublime. How do you approach concept heavy illustration?

Thrilled and excited to have won a Chesley! I’m proud to have my little art corner of Tor.com be recognized this way. It’s a small but beautiful fish in the ocean of Tor Art, spearheaded by so many great and truly humbling art directors — @CFoltzer, …1/2

The Best Art Director goes to @IreneGallo Irene Gallo #chesleys #chesleyawards

you can make art without participating in the process of commodifying it. turning art into revenue is an ugly process and there's no way around that. choosing not to engage with the industry doesn't make your art less important, less meaningful, or less worthy.

Books are art, but publishing is a business. Proceed accordingly.

I am never not wearing a mask on the subway again. Ever.

I just want to point out that all this "useless mask usage and hand-washing" have also given us the lowest number of flu cases ever recorded. 2300. Not deaths. Cases. In the entire United States. Previous year: 38,000,000, with 22,000 deaths.



So we'll written and so emotional and grim. Thinking about death is so hard but the system can't change unless we do. ❤️ @mollymcghee

Tiktok got that slumber party song stuck in my head...


I am afraid to ask what word they use for IUD...

Today has gone so sideways I am convinced I am in my own personal retrograde.

At this point any company that gets rid of remote work is saying they don't care about their staff, they don't want disabled people working for them, and that you shouldn't give them any of your money.


Christine Foltzer The 7th reposted

Companies are starting to nix the remote roles. It's a bad look. A very bad look. "We can't do it," is obviously false. We have a year-long experiment, on a global scale, proving otherwise. And it IS a reasonable accommodation.


I used a table saw, jointer and a planer without hurting myself. And I feel mighty!
