Last Adventboost of the year. And it’ll be a short one, because I need to get going back to my parents’ place for Christmas lunch soon. Today I’m boosting: Killer of Enemies by Joseph Bruchac Killer of Enemies is a post-apocalyptic YA novel with a teenage Apache girl as main character. And honestly, that was about all I needed to know Continue reading Adventboost 2017 – Day 24 – Killer of Enemies by Joseph Bruchac
So, as a rule I only boost things I’ve actually read/watched/generally consumed in some way, but I’m making a sort of half-exception today. You’ll see why below. Anyway, today I’m boosting: Serafina’s Flame by J.C. Hart Serafina’s Flame is a fantasy novel about three women who are called by their near-forgotten goddess to save their people. It’s themed around the Continue reading Adventboost 2017 – Day 23 – Serafina’s Flame by J.C. Hart
Last year, I boosted the webseries Compersion! This year I’ve got a recommendation for another black, polyamorous show: 195 Lewis 195 Lewis is a super cool webseries about a group of black, queer, polyamorous women in NYC. I heard about it quite a while back, but it wasn’t out yet them so it’s just been sitting in my bookmarks. As Continue reading Adventboost 2017 – Day 22 – 195 Lewis
Since it is the holiday season, I’ve been thinking a lot about creating holidays for fictional worlds. The other day I had an idea for a tradition I may use some day in a book, so I wrote this little piece below: The ribbons are slippery between my fingers, and the house is quiet except for the gentle ringing of Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Next Year’s Beads
Hey everyone, welcome to another rendition of “Emma was super busy yesterday so she’d posting a two-for-one boost of similar things”. Last night I played D&D and then went for beers and was out waaaay later than I had planned. Oops! But anyway, today I’m boosting two YouTubers: Ash Hardell Ash Hardell is queer author and YouTuber who posts Continue reading Adventboost 2017 – Day 20 & 21 – Ash Hardell & Jessica Kellgren-Fozard
Lately, I’ve been getting kind of into watching visual novels. Yes, that’s right, I didn’t say playing visual novels, I said watching. That is, watching some streamer I like play one. I don’t know if I’d actually enjoy playing one myself, just because I’m neither much of a gamer or particularly patient and visual novels usually requires a lot of hours put Continue reading Adventboost 2017 – Day 19 – The Letter by Yangyang Mobile
Tonight I turned in my second to last term paper. The last one is already a week late (aaaah!) but should be finished tomorrow (yaaaay!). Which means that on Wednesday, I can finally shift my focus back to writing (have really only done Adventboost in the last week or two and nothing else), with the following goals: Spend 10h on Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Almost over the hurdle
Another day, another “Hey I posted a similar thing this day last year!”. Last year, I wrote about the polyamory-themed YouTube show Compersion, and today I’m here to tell you about a different one: Unicornland Unicornland is an 8 episode web series about Annie, who has recently gotten divorced and is exploring having sex with couples! And it really does Continue reading Adventboost 2017 – Day 18 – Unicornland
Last night I went to a lovely julbord with some very good friends of mine. I had a lovely time, and the food was absolutely delicious. Afterward, the boyfriend and I spent some time watching some streamers we like play a visual novel game called The Letter and somehow blanked entirely on the fact that time was passing and I had a blog to Continue reading Adventboost 2017 – Day 16 & 17 – Gays of Our Lives by Kris Ripper & Knit One Girl Two by Shira Glassman
Last year my Adventboost contained several webcomics. Not so this year; I guess I just haven’t started reading that many new comics this year. But, I have started reading at least one that deserves boosting: Raruurien by Ann Maulina When a portrait of the main character from Raruurien, Rien, first drifted across my Twitter feed by initial reaction was: “Oh, Continue reading Adventboost 2017 – Day 15 – Raarurien by Ann Maulina
