The volleyball in Haikyuu is so incredibly on point almost any other depiction of sports in media (TV, movies, books) looks amateurish comapred to it. #haikyuu #hqtwt #volleyball

September 2021. A residential street. Anywhere in Texas. The Militia didn't just take the Capitol. They came to the neighborhoods. #USTX #BoltonshireBooks

September 18, 2021. One day after the Capitol fell. Compliance Order 001 was issued to every elected official, every law enforcement officer, every government employee in the Unified States of Texas. 48 hours. Report to your designated Militia substation. Affirm loyalty. No exceptions. No extensions. No appeals. Some complied. Some didn't make it to 48 hours. #USTX

A hit man dodging alien attacks, a smart-alec old elephant, a posh ad man living in a trailer park, and a sex-addicted movie star with a killer stalking her…try out one of these indie novels from multi-genre author D.L. Kilpatrick! amazon.com/author/dlkilpatri…

It's been a while since I showcased the art for the novel I'm writing. @Christina_dsuza has created wonderful character art for me. @DKemeridou created the cover for the sequel. And my friend Blake DeLeon (no store fronts currently) made my chapter ornamentation.

Blue green forest whimsy background with beige text box stating: Blurb When an orb bearing her mother’s voice appears at her window, Nina follows it through a portal into Evallantis. A realm of found family, mythical animal companions, and friends from other realms. While she learns to harness her powers, she is faced with prejudice, for her heritage is linked with underworld magic. When her best friend disappears while someone is trying to free the shadow wielder that her mother died putting into exile, all clues point to Nina. To clear her name, find her friend and stop the monster, Nina may have to embrace the very magic everyone fears without tipping over to the dark side.

Tyrion defeated Snape also thanks to two pairs of 2 extra points from commenters. Today we have the Witcher himself (like the post) against Alessan from Tigana (like the comment)... not to be confused with the various other Alessans like from the Dragonriders of Pern :-D Remember that comments are +2 votes. #booktwt #fantasy #charactershowdown #witcher #tigana

Brashen won only thanks to a clutch comment worth 2 points from @car_a_carn42 . Today we have Snape (like the post) against Tyrion Lannister (like the comment). Both morally questionable characters with some redeeming qualities, but will they be enough to win? #booktwt #Fantasy #fantasycharacter

Granny Weatherwax won (but it wasn't much of a contest). Today we have two youngster prodigies: Arya (like the post) from ASoIF against Fang Runin (like the comment) from Poppy War. Remember that comments are worth 2 extra points. #booktwt #fantasy #strongwomen @kuangrf

I'm going to leave the men up for a little while longer, since it is so close, but Sarene is the clear winner from yesterday amongst women. Today we have the complex pirate captain Zamira (like the post) vs. quintessential pragmatist Granny Weatherwax (like the comment) and provide your own comments for 2 extra votes. #booktwt #strongwomen #Fantasy @scottlynch78

Finished this book (audio while commuting) this week. For me it is a ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ at least. Janci did a great job following up on the Skyward series Brandon wrote. The two new POC characters were distinct and while I missed Spensa, they were engaging enough for me to want sequels for their stories… which we thankfully will get. #booktwt #review

I am EXHAUSTED. Anyone else want to sit down, read a book and ignore all of their real life responsibilities? Even writing as an escape doesn’t seem to help anymore when I’m faced with the prospect of speaking to 20 bots masquerading as readers…

Percy moves on to the round of 16. This one should be very interesting. Locke Lamora (one of my fav. Fantasy characters of all time - vote by liking the post) against Brashen from RoTE Liveship Traders arc. (another fan favorite - vote by liking the comment). I think reasoning by dedicated fans will be the deciding factor here. Remember to add a comment for 2 extra votes! #booktwt #fantasy @robinhobb @scottlynch78
