This is one for the trolls!

We've been getting some hate comments and such so here are some of our favorite responses.

In all seriousness, don't feed into the trolls or the bigots. They are not worth your time. Continue living your best life, protest peacefully, and keep doing whats right.

Ravven will troll the trolls for you.

Happy Pride!

And consider picking up a book or two from your favorite q***r press 🥰🌈

Lately we've been receiving some hateful commentary and messages because we are actively posting about supporting Trans rights and the q***r community this Pride and to that we say:

We are shooting stars 🌠

We stand on business and bricks.

And books.

Lots and lots of books.

Like, 54 I think.

Horror, gothic, time travel, steampunk, fantasy, kink, spice, more horror, lots of different body horror, have I mentioned horror?

Drop a line below what your flavor of icecream and me and my cronies will rate it 0-10 in 🌠

We are almost halfway through Pride! Please make sure you are staying safe, hydrated, educated, and flying your flags high!

And if you're more of an indoor kind of q***r, you can help support LGBTQIA+ authors by supporting small presses such as my own and the Laughing Man House run by Sirius (both of which are run by q***r disabled people).

We both support a variety of q***r authors and q***r disabled authors and when you buy directly from our houses, your money is going directly to our press and those authors.

And the best part? No competition. While Curious Corvid dives into more Gothic Horror, Laughing Man explores religious horror, often through the lens of sweaty southern gospel, rich with atmosphere, deals with devils, and diverse q***r characters.

So whatever you are doing this Pride, please know there is ALWAYS a place for you, there is ALWAYS a table for you. When you feel alone, please reach out. There is someone out here waiting to catch you.

And if you find yourself in need of mental health assistance, please know this: you need to stay alive. The world needs old g**s, le****ns, Trans people, theys and thems, and everything in between 💜🫂

Su***de can be prevented. If you or someone you know is experiencing mental health distress and/or are in crisis, support is available. Here is a list of LGBTQ crisis hotlines and support resources.

Protest in the afternoon...

"bury your dead in the morning, protest in the afternoon, and dance all night"

This saying emerged during the AIDs epidemic of the 1980s and 90s. When our government and even our neighbors refused to see, acknowledge, and name a disease that was ravaging our community. When gay men were actively refused treatment and left to die until the le****ns, in all their glory, showed up to to take care of them.

Our community needs to remember the power we have when we continue to hold each other up, when we come together, when we stop erasing each other, stop trying to fit in with certain crowds...we have to remember that at the end of the day, we really only have each other.

During this time when trans people are actively being targeted and murdered, beaten at bus stops, and harassed in the streets, we gotta be sure we are screaming as loud as we possibly can. It was Trans women, specifically black and latina Trans women who led the first campaigns for equal rights, who threw the first brick, and who ultimately dedicated their entire lives to protests and changing hateful legislation against all q***r folk.

Q***r history is RICH with heros who sacrificed for our country, for our rights, and bit by bit our government is washing them away and erasing them from history. Please go learn their names. I implore you to learn the history for the privileges we have now, and understand that we are not that far removed from forced castration, imprisonment for s*x with the same gender, arrest for wearing the wrong clothes (a bill being proposed in ohio btw, its very loosey goosey), etc etc etc.

I am Ravven White, the founder of Curious Corvid, reminding you once again this Pride that I am a nonbinary q***r and I won't be silenced (despite the crippling back pain).

And I will always stand up for you too.

Fall in love with accessibility

Its been over a year since I left the house and went for a walk down a trail. Its been over a year since I was able to comfortably have people over. Over a year for A LOT of things.

Last year when the disabilities started appearing and my legs started cramping and giving out, my community showed up. and ran raffles to raise money for an electric wheelchair. First, I cannot thank both of you enough for stepping up for me when I was completely overwhelmed and made sure I would still be able to get around whenever I needed to. Second, to every single person who contributed, shared, shouted out, and messaged me:

Ya'll helped(help) keep me alive.

I've used the wheelchair here and there for medical appointments on bad pain days.

But yesterday, despite being cold and foggy, we bundled up and hit the trail and for the FIRST TIME IN OVER A YEAR I got to be outside and roll in between trees. I saw blue jays and crows, Cardinals and robins, sparrows and red winged blackbirds. I saw morel mushrooms and tiny green lambs ear, and dozens of wildflowers. I smelled fresh grass, the after of rain and mist, newly dug dirt, and wind that carries the memories of a million organisms preparing for a new cycle.

I still walk, dont get me wrong. I want to walk for as long as I possibly can.

But I couldn't have walked yesterday. And even on my best days, I wont make it very far down a trail.

Now I can.

Thank you 💜🫂

Its been a really hard year and a half at Curious Corvid.

When Ravven started declining fast last year and was diagnosed with Primary Progressive MS in September, we thought it was all over. Everything was too much, too overwhelming, too...everything. Ravven lost a lot of pieces as the disability and pain and the reality of a new life all set in.

We are so eternally grateful for our community who stayed behind us while we struggled to keep ourselves together. While we pondered calling it quits. When Ravven couldn't leave her bed for over a month.

We are still here because at the end of the day

we still have work to do.

This is for you.

It was never a labor of love.

It was a scream of desperation.

Its systemic. Its oppressive. And it is not all in your head.

"Endless symptoms. Brush offs from doctors. Pain. Neglect. Survival. A gothic collection of horrific and heartbreaking occurrences detailing a life spent in chronic pain and illness, Entropy is a raw and vulnerable look at medical neglect and invisible illness. Ravven White spares no procedure and allows the reader an inside look at an intimate battle with endometriosis and pregnancy loss, while fighting for answers surrounding chronic, widespread pain and fatigue. Waiting for nearly a decade to be heard and seen, undiagnosed illness and debilitating pain pushes White into an unstable and chaotic future filled with canes, braces, and self advocation. Entropy is a story of health and lack thereof: a gradual decline into disorder, decay, and desperation. There is life after diagnosis but it can be hell getting there."

Find my story every where books are. Or maybe in your mirror.

It started with a raven

And now we have a flock of crows and blue jays and rooks and ravens galore..

In our discord we have writers, readers, editors, self-pubbers, reviewers, you name it! We support each other on our writing journey, host giveaways, offer resources, and discord ALWAYS sees news and discounts before anyone else.

But we have also grown quite a warm and lovely (depraved) community where we talk and share life, games, jokes, and downward spirals of conversations that Ravven starts when she's too deep in their own brain.

There's room for you too!

And we hear there's even a game server in development for our community to play together....
