Hey! How's life going? Hope everything's ok! I've been away from tumblr for a long while now but everytime I hop on I come here and it brings me joy. Just want to spread some of it back to you :)

Hi!

Good to hear from you. Glad to have you back on tumblr. I sometimes forget about her, but then when I come back and I can scroll along it also brings me joy and I think we need more joy in our lives.

Things are going okay with me. I keep wanting to post on BFSN/sunflower kru posts, but for some reason I can't post pics on tumblr? IDK. So I can't share the two separate batches of rescue kittens we got this year. First Gizmo (super fuzzy and black) and then the Goobie Brothers (Twinkie, Mac and Cheese. Orange and white tabbies.)

I am working on creating a couple of careers (art and writing!) and there's a lot to go with it. I joined an art collective and have my art up in the gallery and am teaching classes and also just started a job a the classroom coordinator and working on their website. Which is teaching me how to set up a shop on my own website so as soon as I manage to do that, I think I'll start selling my art online and hopefully get some of it out there! Exciting.

I also finally published my debut novel (but Rowena, haven't you been writing for DECADES? Yes. Yes I have, but publishing is a different thing entirely. And after spending a few years ghostwriting romance and having no time left for my own books I finally just said screw it, and got this puppy out there in the world. It's a big deal but I keep pretending to myself it's nothing. So let me share with y'all. Almost no one has seen it. My goal this year is to work on marketing. So let me start here.

Spacewitch, by Rowena Murillo is on Amazon in ebook format and on Kindle Unlimited. (paperback still to come.)

Mona Luu was not a hero. She was a failed biomech engineer, failed live-ship captain, failed… lets be honest, failed everything. 

But she was a gondam genius at being a fake witch who sold psionic alien goo charms that were guaranteed to bring normies the magic of the universe.*

Mona and Dragon, her sentient alien spaceship, warped across Sol System, from station to settlement, avoiding anything resembling responsibility and living their best lives. 

Then some stowaway kid heard “Witch” and confused Mona with her savior…

[Podfic] Comfort Isn't Earned, It's a Guarantee | by @certified-spacewitch

Star Wars: Fox/Thorn | Rated: M | Length: 11 minutes

Fox isn't handling it well when they lose a shiny who shouldn't have ever been in danger in the first place. Thorn tries to comfort him the best that he can.

Podded for @voiceteam for the challenge Soporific, because this has long been on my list and two of my friends apparently love to sleep to my sad Fox podfics most of all.

Killing Gravity by Corey J. White

Series: Voidwitch Saga, #1 Read time: 1 Day Rating: 4/5 Stars

The Quote: I'm a spacewitch, I'm a goddess of death and destruction, and I start to laugh thinking of the look on Brigg's face. You think you know what you did to me? You don't know the half of it. — Mars

I picked up Killing Gravity on impulse at my local library while looking for a book to fit the adventure prompt for a reading challenge. I'm so glad I did. I personally found Mariam 'Mars' Xi to be a protagonist. She is angry, ruthless and powerful loyal while maintaining some traditionally feminine caring and empathetic characteristics. Honestly, I got strong Wu Zetian (Iron Widow) vibes at times. I found the plot to be an engaging and enjoyable ride. I wanted to know where it was going. I wanted to know what happened to these characters. The included violence and vengeance feels right. The universe Corey J. White has created for his characters is brutal. Especially the situations Mars came from.

The support cast is larger than I was expecting for a novella, it's not huge but there is diversity. It's queer and quirky and I adore it. Props to White for giving women the strength and control though. Because one of the other support characters, Trix, an amputee who we first meet in an exoskeleton and the Nova's main defender. The Nova is the ship that saves Mars from her critically damaged ship. The captain of that ship is so endearing to me. Squid is an enby but they feel like a bit of an anomaly. They are all soft power, meditation, near anti-gun and yet the captain, respected with ease by both Trix and Mookie. I get the feeling there is a terrifying spine to Squid we are yet to see. Mookie and Trix are poly or at least more than willing to share their bed. I can't really explain Mookie, he makes me smile. You'll get it if you read Killing Gravity. I really like computer AIs Waren and Einri. I looked up the name Einri, dual meanings Intelligent (from the Teutonic) and Rules the home (from the Irish). Can we acknowledge that Eirni is one of the best names for ship AI? Waren means Loyal (from the German). Given the arrangement Mars has with Waren that is important. Probably should mention Seven. Seven is Mars's pet (?), companion (?). From the descriptions, she kind of feels like part cat, part sugar glider. But she was a science experiment that Mars has had for most of her life. Loyal almost to a fault and but so, so adorable.

A random dump of thoughts and quotes.

I appreciate the explanation of the Wormhole physics. Fairly standard but it's nice to have a reminder now and then.

Mars talks to the reader, not breaking the fourth wall, she isn't aware she is fictional, but something close.

Ring One is where my people live. Well, not my people, but the closest thing I want to find: the freaks, the runaways, the perpetual wanderers, the organized crime, the genehackers, the bodychoppers, the digital-wannabes, the loose, the inebreated, the ones with the no common sense, no career and no desire for one, the fed up the fucked up and flamed out. The whole place is like a dangerous chemical concoction. You never know what might set off a reaction, and the threat of violence hangs in the air thick as the smell. — I just find this an appealing description of a group of people, the downtrodden and it definitely tells you whom Mars has lines herself with. That she is a survivor through and through, you don't get to consider these your people without that kind of survival trait. (Mars, p.37-8)

His chest is covered in tattoos—maroon and black ink, the tragically loyal fuck — You can almost hear the tone that belongs here. Okay, and I like the phrase tragically loyal fuck. (Mars, p.59)

"Smart-ass." "I thought Einri was sans personality." "No, just sans voice mod. I don't want some artificial voice construct convincing me Einri is a person. It's not a person, it's a ship. Without a voice mod it sounds like a ship I like things to be clear, you see?" — I find this quote interesting. I appreciate Squid's idea of delineation (because Einri really does have a personality). But that last line is kinda counter to part of their personality. They respected Mas' privacy and didn't push her to give answers. They have more sides than they admit. (Squid and Mars, p.70)

Euphemisms gain strength by hiding truth. Nothing is truth, nothing is reality, my mind contains multitudes, it contains universes, I contain multitudes. I am Mariam, I am Sera, I am every caretaker that ever had a hand in molding me, I am mold growing across every surface of Ergot. — I'm not sure why this appeals to me so much it's part of a whole section that has some really pretty phrasing that suits Mars' state at the time. (Mars, p.106)

Hey everyone. Sorry i haven't been posting much lately. Happy Belated BSFN.

We've had a doozy of a day here and are still reeling from the election news. But you know. We don't have a choice so we have to keep on keeping on. Anyway. I do have kittens. One was rescued this spring. And then we rescued a litter between two hurricanes. But I can't seem to post a photo of them. I also have news on the book front. My book Spacewitch, about a middle-aged, foul mouth con-artist who lives in a sentient spaceship named Dragon, is coming out on December 10th.

Happy Tuesday, sunflowerkru!

I hope you guys have had a good week. Mine's been pleasant enough, if eventful. All Saint's Day is busy time for us here and Halloween is my brother's birthday, so it's been a long long weekend.

Hugs and kisses to you all!

[artbyjef]

Hey there! My Name is the Girl Called Jef and I like to draw art! I am a small digital artist who loves fantasy style art. I some times stream my art on twitch alongside games such as Final Fantasy XIV.

[cryoscarab]

@chaoticevilspacewitch wrote a short Fan Fic that was inspired by my Art.

Not gonna lie, it hit me right in the feels & I encourage any fan of the Bees who comes across this to give it a read. Also, as a small creative, I consider it a great milestone that something I made actually inspired a Fic.

If you're reading this spacewitch, your fic was a beautiful read & I am honored that my Art helped inspire it.

"Hey there Mom. There's someone very special I want you to meet."
