  1. A couple of things, including an upcoming free short story

    The first draft of my Nancy Drew horror mystery novella cover art work arrived yesterday. I’ve made notes and sent them back. Y’all this is so exciting. It looks fabulous and will continue to improve. Can’t wait to share it with y’all in the near future.

    I’ll be participating in the Midsummer Night’s Scream book event by giving away free ebook copies of my short queer YA comedy sci-fi horror story called “Blood Frequnecy.” Mark your calendars for July 18! 🌈 👽

    Other authors will be involved in this event as well across Threads and Instagram either with discounted works or free ones.

    #ScribesAndMakers May 17: Link to, reply to, or summarize yesterday's poll and reveal the answer.

    So normally Fandom would’ve been a good bet. Until this particular project, I’d never used it for writing. But I’m working on a Nancy Drew story and the wiki for Nancy Drew on Fandom does a pretty good job of connecting some dots when I need a quick reference such as when a character first appeared in the series and such, because not all of Nancy Drew is in the public domain.

    The right answer which did not win is History<dot>com. I don’t use that one ever for writing research or whatever. I do tend to read a lot of history, folklore, and other things, but not from there. Typically if I wanna really dig my heels into something historical, I read books.

  5. #WordWeavers May 16. Would your WIP still work if you changed the gender of your MC?

    Likely not. I’m writing a Nancy Drew horror mystery novella with queer and feminist themes, so yeah.

    Reworking Nancy into a boy, for example, would completely dilute the themes and character interactions.

  8. Recording a song for my Nancy Drew horror novella

    Soon I will be headed to go record the vocals to this original rock ‘n’ roll song for my Nancy Drew horror mystery story. I’m gonna have a blast and I hope this song is something y’all enjoy hearing alongside the novella itself when it drops. Gonna try and make a point to get some pics or videos to share from the recording session.

    I have to harmonize with myself at least twice during the recording session — the chorus will have a lot of my voice. 😂

    Should I break out the old Elvis jacket? 🤔

  10. RE: techhub.social/@vintprox/11239

    One schizo thread for a riddle that didn't even make it into the final game. I feel like it's a ploy #HerInteractive made for making their trailer look "futuristic". Well, as a developer myself, I'll say that this poor attempt at mockery won't go unseen.

    What you see here is some random snippet of FTP software written in Node.js. Whether it was stolen or not does not concern me (and believe me, I tried to find any matches with existing open source code on the Internet, to no avail). What concerns me is that they just had to obfuscate it - there is no reason for this whatsoever. No hidden clue in this, only a big ball of nothing.

  12. You are in good hands, my friend. I know a lot of "remakes" ruin the original story. You will be in good hands here. #nancydrew

  13. Hey indie authors — no snark or sarcasm — what do you love most about being indie?

    I think for me it’s just that I can be like, “Hey, I think I’ll do this thing,” and then just do it.

    At the start of this year, I discovered Nancy Drew entered the public domain, had ideas for stories and put the stories I was working on hold to work on a Nancy Drew story. And that’s fine! — and no one is telling me I can’t. And I’m having the time of my life with it.

  25. CW: Content Warning: Adult pulp-style art by Todd Alcott

    The mighty Ruben Bolling (@rubenbolling) re-introduced me to artist Todd Alcott''s genre-mashing art today.
    I'd seen Alcott's work elsewhere, but didn't know his name.
    Alcott haz an Etsy site, if you're looking for gifts for people who share your sense of humor this holiday season.

  27. Currently reading through the second Nancy Drew book, The Hidden Staircase.

    The Mansion is giving me dungeon ideas for my Eberron game. Love secret doors and passages.

  28. Been reading the 1930 Nancy Drew Mystery Stories ahead of them hitting public domain in January.

    So far, I've read the book where Nancy follows up recreational breaking and entering with stealing stolen property then hiding the stolen goods from the cops.

    (The Tophams totally deserved it)
