Hi I just wanted to say I read some of your stuff on AO3 and is so amazing I loved it so much and I just wanted to if you have any original stuff that is published that is available to read!

I do! My novels are all free to download as ebooks (or you can buy print copies) from my site ejadelomax.com. I recommend starting with Beanstalk!

I also have interactive fiction games at https://ejadelomax.itch.io/

And if you like a little audio drama, I produced and co-wrote Second Star to the Left, which is a completed ten episode sci fi adventure @secondstartotheleftpodcast . You can find it on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Castos etc.

Lots to explore if you’ve run out of my Ao3 backlog!

Think of the most noticeable scar on your body. How did you get it?

From another person

From an animal

Sport injury

Falling (while not doing sports)

Dealing with sharp objects or broken glass/ceramics*

Dealing with non-sharp objects (happens)

Temperature burn

Chemical burn (what have you been doing?)

Something else

I have 2 or more equally noticeable scars that I got in different ways

I don’t have scars/see results

See Results

*if you fell on a sharp object, consider that falling. Otherwise, consider it dealing with sharp objects

CINDER HOUSE: A NOVELLA

coming in October this year: an extremely angry Cinderella retelling about ballet, fire, skeletons, intense epistolary friendships, and aaaaall the feelings I had about being trapped in my house and betrayed by my body, thanks for nothing, long COVID.

Ella is a haunting.

Murdered at sixteen, her ghost is furiously trapped in her father’s house, invisible to everyone except her stepmother and stepsisters.

Even when she discovers how to untether herself from her prison, there are limits. She cannot be seen or heard by the living people who surround her. Her family must never learn she is able to leave. And at the stroke of every midnight, she finds herself back on the staircase where she died.

Until she forges a wary friendship with a fairy charm-seller, and makes a bargain for three nights of almost-living freedom. Freedom that means she can finally be seen. Danced with. Touched.

You think you know Ella’s story: the ball, the magical shoes, the handsome prince.

You’re halfway right, and all-the-way wrong.

btw its time to get your flu shot for the year if you havent yet. theres also a new covid vaccine rolling out in the US but because RFK wants people dead, insurance coverage/eligibility is very slim, you may need to be prepared for a bill or to see your doctor about it. but still dont let the season go without getting your vaccines if possible ok thanks

(via @sinistrasidera )

The meeting where they’re likely to curb vaccine access even further starts Thursday, September 18, 2025: https://www.hhs.gov/press-room/cdc-acip-meeting-september-18-19-2025.html

I strongly recommend that anyone in the USA get vaccinated before that meeting if it’s at all possible for you.

it’s always really funny to read reviews of the murderbot books that are like ‘we eventually learn that the secunit is not a mindless automaton after all but a person, who hacked the module that controls its behavior and just wants to watch its tv shows in peace’ as if that isn’t literally the first thing we learn about it. like, the first sentence:

wow talk about a banger opening paragraph

🚨 BIG NEWS ALERT 🚨: I HAVE A NEW BOOK COMING OUT NEXT MONTH!! THIS IS ITS BEAUTIFUL COVER!! If you’ve ever asked yourself, “What if those test kitchen videos that got popular a few years back were the backdrop to a hilarious, rompy, grumpy/sunshine gay romcom full of food and warmth and a dash of holiday magic,” then may I humbly recommend RECIPE FOR TROUBLE, which will be out in October in ebook, print and audio! It’s available for pre-order right here, if you would like to make me (and my publishers lol) very happy. 

What can you expect from RECIPE FOR TROUBLE? Jokes! Workplace romance! Hijinks! The dangers of fame in the internet age! Ideas for dinner! A small but well contained set fire! Queer characters who feel real! So much more that I had to write a whole book about it! It is, in my humble opinion, a great time – at the very least, I had an absolute blast writing it. (Like all my books, this is in no small part thanks to the hard work and dedication of Hannah Bond, who has kindly and generously worked with me every step of the way; if you are in search of someone to help you bring your ideas to life, I can’t recommend her highly enough.) 

SOME Q&A, which is under a cut so I don’t eat your dashboards:

Keep reading

elumish:

It is incredibly important to train yourself to have your first instinct be to look something up.

Don’t know how to do something? Look it up.

See a piece of news mentioned on social media? Look it up.

Not sure if something is making it to the broader public consciousness, either because you don’t see it much or you see people saying nobody is talking about it? Look it up.

Don’t know what a word means? Look it up.

It will make you a better reader and a better writer, but it will also just make you more equipped to cope with the world.

So often, I see people talking about something as though it is the first time anyone has ever acknowledged it, when I’ve been reading reports about it on the news for months or years. Or I see someone totally misinterpreting an argument because they clearly don’t know what a word means–or, on the other hand, making an argument that doesn’t make sense because they aren’t using words the right way.

Look things up! Check the news (the real news, not random people on social media)! Do your research! You (and the world) will be better for it.
