101 Essays that will change the way you think, a personal development book by Brianna Wiest is a compilation of short essays that discuss why you should pursue purpose over passion, embrace negative thinking, see the wisdom in daily routine & become aware of the cognitive biases that are creating the way you see your life.

Are all Becky Chamber's books this wholesome? The kinda naive/childish optimism with which she writes about really tragic/horrible events/situations and characters is like the best most healing thing ever. I need a lifetime supply of this injected directly into my brainstem.

Hi! Coming up with sth Polish LGBTQ+ specific so don't feel obligated to interact.

I'm starting up a collection of lesbian books, movies, tv shows and games for polish lesbian community so people will know for sure that there is a representation in media I'm describing.

It's called lesbioteka, from words lesbian / bisexual (lesbijka and biseksualna in polish) and library (biblioteka in polish). Les + bi + teka makes lesbioteka!

Anyway, the profile exist on Instagram, and I have huge problems with indexing this account so if you guys would be so generous to spread the link and profile so google can actually verify its legit to put in google search I would be most grateful.

hello I am here to tell you that you should read 'the tarot sequence' by k.d. edwards, aka the queerest books I've ever had the pleasure to read. and when I say queer, I mean guys kissing but also non-binary characters, ace characters, and queerplatonic relationships.

i mean a society where it's just the norm to be bi. i mean open displays of affection and non-sexual nudity between characters regardless of gender and relationship status. i mean romantic relationships not having more value than platonic ones. i mean a shit ton of found family.

add to that amazing worldbuilding, sexual assault trauma that's handled seriously (in and out of the bedroom), MCs in their thirties, disabled characters, poc characters, humor, engaging plot, and I could go on. it has everything but most of all, there's SO MUCH warmth and love!!

walking into these books as an arospec, bi ace person has been such a breath of fresh air, I truly cannot recommend them enough!!

(as a note the ace character was confirmed in a free extra, but the author confirmed it'll be brought up in a future volume)

Do you love reading? Do you love short stories? Do you love witches? Well if you answered yes to any of those questions then my books might be for you!

Hi I'm Shelby! I'm a self published author who is having a preorder for my second debut novel!

Ela Bambust: A Retrospective

First, the full disclosures. I have personally helped Ela author some books for sale on Amazon, as well as being a big fan of her work and a long-time supporter of her Patreon. For these reasons and the fact that I find social media scary, I find it difficult to write about other author's works, even when I'm bursting at the seams. But I've been wanting to come out of my shell a bit and do new things (hence, finally getting into Tumblr).

Ela Bambust is, without a shadow of a doubt, a prolific and excellent author of LGBTQIA+ stories who generously gives most of her work away for free on the popular site ScribbleHub under the pseudonym Elamimax. The writing style of her works are fun. I love the way sentences stop mid-word in Principles of Non-Euclidean Romance, or the way inner monoluges happen in Any Other Name. And really, I just love the way she plays with classic isekai and transgender tropes in fiction. In my opinion, and I believe the numbers bear this out too, her best work is Any Other Name. It's a member of the now classic genre of fantasy books centered around a magical school full of witches, wizards, and warlocks. Together, a small band of misfits helps save the day while getting into, out-of, and sometimes creating, magical hijinks. Not only is the book well written from a technical standpoint, but the characters are so vivid and friendly, you actually do feel like you made a friend by the end of the book. That's not to say her other works don't stand on their own merits, either. One of her oldest works is I didn’t ask to be the Demon Queen. A very Ela take on the Isekai genre that quickly made her one of ScribbleHub's “Famous Authors”, and is ranked No. 1 in the Parody tag to this day. It's a fun romp in another world where the protagonist now has to work to undo all the damage the previous owner of her body managed to inflict upon the world, while finding love along the way. If you want a fun popcorn book of hers, Any Witch Way is a fantastic novella about a man described with 'not's, a cat named Pancakes, and a hole in reality. Of all her works, I normally recommend this one to new readers as it feels like a quintessential Ela Bambust book distilled to about 30k words. Whichever book you pick up from Ela, thank you. And: You're welcome.

A Return To Love

Author: Marianne Williamson

I’ve read hundreds of books on self love and relationships and this has to be one of my top favorites.

You are either living in fear or living in love. There’s no in between. The book focuses on your relationship with yourself and how it affects your romantic relationships as well. It is a very raw and soft perspective on finding inner peace with love, with so many relatable examples.

This book does use Christian theology as the way to explain this process. So it is based a lot on faith and prayer.

One of the most popular quotes from the book:

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

I'm very happy to announce my longest project yet for the past (now) 6 years me and my wonderful working project partner Setora have been creating an amazing story between these two masters

Waglington the wizard and Setosorcerer the Sorcerer and the great magic war, I'm so happy to show you one of our current (not final) concept our teaser cover art idea

Another exciting news, this will turn into an animation show!! Once this book gets unofficial released (locally and order online) we already started on the animation, but it's taken so many years just the two of us to complete and to do mostly myself aha,

But I hope all of you will join us for this amazing project!

(Title still working on) ❤️

-Ever escalating stakes

-Rich and complex world building
