There's a cat in my @clarkesworld story, An Ode to Stardust, inspired by my own kitty, Blade. If you enjoyed the story,I have another in 2023! A #fantasy piece in ParSec#6: No Truer Shades. It, too, has a cat. Inspired by my Arya. Available here: pspublishing.co.uk/parsec-di… #Caturday

🐱April 14 is #WorldQuantumDay, but it is also the foundation day of Whiskerton, a town for cats. Read Quantum Kittens to get to know the town's curious cats and learn the basics of quantum computing while you're at it! quantumkittens.online #quantum #quantumcomputing #cat

The illustration is from when I tried my hand at digital art early last year, a twist on one of @Floortjesart's amazing tutorials (youtube.com/@ArtwithFlo). Fun fact: this experiment sparked the opening scene of the story. Here it is as a phone wallpaper: radhapyarisandhir.com/wp-con…

This is my little king, Blade, the inspiration for Midnight in my @clarkesworld novelette An Ode to Stardust. Blade is too curious for his own good, adores chasing stuffed mice, and sleeps tucked under my arm all buttery soft. clarkesworldmagazine.com/san… #cat #sff #scifi

Writing a feature screenplay after a long while and it feels so good! A fantasy about a sweet shop in a secluded Indian-inspired town. Featuring a sullen sweetmaker, a friendly witch, a pair of rambunctious orphans, and sentient water. #amwritingfantasy #screenwriting #moodboard
