A little #bookpromo for my first novel:
An inventor running for his life teams up w/a pair of broken heroes to fight injustice in a post-revolution world.
NOT a dystopia. More like hopepunk mystery romantic suspense.
Disability rep, chronic pain rep, found family vibes

Another place to find me (in Pittsburgh)... helping a friend launch her book! At a really cool low-tech event where we'll celebrate @mchristinebd.bsky.social's book (The Height of Land) and talking about #hopepunk & #solarpunk !
Book: https://www.bennerdixon.com/the-height-of-land
Event: Borland Garden, Pittsburgh, 4.12 (1-4pm)
Must say there is something beautiful and healing about seeing a bunch of strangers in a #repairCafe helping each other fix their rice cookers, format their laptops, sew their teddy bears, patch up their clothes, figure out ways to solve problems with what they've got right there and each other.
Highly recommended activity to restore faith in ordinary people when we see so much cruelty from the top.
NEW episode of the #podcast wherein I talk about some fun zines I've made (which you can download), how FLOW is a breakout #solarpunk film, and how cultural change flies under the radar long before it changes the world.

Hello fediverse solarpunks! We’re Solarpunk Presents Podcast, a podcast run on a shoestring budget by two lady solarpunks, one in Canada (@arielkroon) and one in Germany (@xtinadr@wandering.shop). We’re not great with technology, but we happen to both be PhDs from the opposite sides of the spectrum between STEM and Humanities/the Arts, and we’re united in our working towards solarpunk futures.
Our podcast is an interview-style podcast where we talk to guests and each other about various aspects of solarpunk, renewable energies, political action, and more. Often, our guests are people who wouldn’t label themselves as solarpunks, but are (and have been, often for years) quietly involved in working towards making the world a better place to live in. We strongly believe that once you get past the aesthetic and hype about renewables, solarpunk at its core promotes compassion, kinship with non-humans and humans alike, and grace for our fellow human beings as we all work together to survive on our shared planet.
You can support the podcast on Patreon, with tiers starting at just $1 USD! We host a monthly solarpunk hangout that all of our patrons are invited to, and all Patrons at the $3 tier and up receive early access to our episodes. There are more tiers with more extras, so head to https://patreon.com/solarpunkpresents to see them all. We also take one-time or recurring donations over at our PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=4QYBB8LGBC6FS
Even if you’re not in the financial position to donate, we really value other forms of support, such as positive reviews on your podcatcher of choice (it helps us be more visible and reach more solarpunks!), or subscriptions to our YouTube channel and comments there. As writers, we thrive on feedback, and we are continually trying to make the podcast better and want to know what you think.
As I’ve said before, it's rough out there for anyone valuing the environment, social justice, compassion, and more, and we want to keep doing our part to keep hope alive. We want to broaden the imagination of what it's possible to do to contribute to a better world, no matter who you are, where you live, or what life stage you're at.

Le #hopepunk de "Derniers biscuits avant la fin du monde" a été coup de cœur des lecteurs d'#Atramenta, sera-t-il le vôtre ?
https://www.atramenta.net/lire/derniers-biscuits-avant-la-fin-du-monde/78125
in #SpoonieTown, the abbreviated terms "Lo-Mo" and "Lo-Fo" are understood to mean "low motivation" and "low focus" and describe those particular challenges a person can struggle with in their day to day. so, when someone says they are having a lomo kind of day, everyone gets exactly how that person is feeling and can instantly relate.
Ok folks! #hopePunk weekend challenge!
Take some time to ponder, and add your own toots to two of my favourite visioning projects:
#spoonieTown an imaginary place where we've already solved all the problems - what's life like there? What's kind of infrastructure is used? How do we take care of each other? What's a day like?
#tonicMasculinity - share your favourite examples from pop culture, your real life moments, or men you admire and why. There's so much good to celebrate. 
#spoonieTown has lots of back yards and driveways for our more nomadic byoh (bring your own housing - van/RV, portable pods, summer camping...) denizens to settle in and stay a while before they move on.
Ooo and lil nodes of tiny homes with a central shared space for gatherings and meals.
Versatile, flexible and fun.

@toddmedema Cyberus only publishes brazilian short stories from indie authors, same to this anthology of inverted solarpunk.
But I'm curious. Does megacorporation in your story use green energy or green discourse to manipulate/pursue some people? Or shows a point of view from someone negatively affected by green discouses? If so, I think it is inverted solarpunk, but it's new born genre, I can't say much about that...
I do love writers who *enjoy* language.
Just finished "Foreigners" by Cherryh
