My next book, Romancing the Butch, a Butch-femme lesbian romantic comedy, will drop on February 6, so I’ve rounded up random facts about Butch-femme lesbians. 1: the term Butch emerged in working class lesbian bar culture in the 1940s and 1950s. More random facts coming your way.

This is the 3rd book in my Going to Chapel lesbian romcom series. The series follows different couples as they make their way to the altar in Las Vegas. Official release date is February 6.

I made these sweet potato rolls for a Friendsgiving gathering my wife and I went to last night. They and all the other food were soooo good!

I enjoyed writing On Track for Love, my first lesbian/sapphic Xmas romance, I wrote another one, now on preorder.

I need to get better at posting on ALL social media platforms when I write a thing, like this: open.substack.com/pub/elizabet...

My new release is doing pretty well, but I bet it can fit on more e-readers.

I periodically take breaks from social media. I just ended one of those breaks a few days ago. I got a little baking in a week ago. Made a pumpkin gooey butter cake for a party. It was a huge hit. How are things with you?

Dark romance seems to be a thing now. My take: Het dark romance tends to be creepy. Sapphic dark romance features women being badass, and I love it. Gimmee.

On Sunday, I had friends over for my birthday. I invited guests to read their own writing or that of others. Poetry, prose, song lyrics, whatever. It was eclectic and electric. Age range was 25 to 65. Gay, straight, cis, trans, married, single, and poly. Joy and community. A wonderful gift.

It’s Sunday night and just in case it’s not clear: I support LGBTQIA rights. The T is incredibly important. The B is not silent.

Last of the equipment I need for my at home DIY audiobook recording studio built in a closet arrives Monday. I can’t wait. Yes, I’m planning a ribbon cutting for this auspicious occasion.

So far, this is going all according to plan. 😀 open.substack.com/pub/elizabet...

Making progress on my coat-closet-into-audio-studio project. I’m keeping most of the coats in there for sound absorption. I placed a couple of old rugs on the floor, again for sound absorbing. Today I’ll start placing from foam acoustic panels on the walls. I’m excited!

More on my Substack. This one’s short and sweet. I hope you like it. elizabethandre.substack.com/p/what-sapph... (elizabethandre.substack.com/p/what-sapph...)

My latest project isn’t writing though it’s writing related. I’m turning my small coat closet into an audio studio so I can finally work on turning some of my books into audiobooks, finally. Hooray!

These are going on to my TBR pile!

Having dinner with friends tonight. I was asked to make dessert so here’s apple-cranberry slab pie just out of the oven. My wife says it looks like a giant McDonald’s hand pie. She’s not wrong. 😝

I’m working on the 3rd book in this Going to the Chapel series, which should be out this summer.🤞🏾 In the meantime, pick up the 1st in the series in Jae’s Sapphic Book Bingo. #lesfic #sapphic

It occurred to me just now that I haven’t properly introduced myself. I’m a writer of lesbian (or Sapphic, if you wish) fiction. Mostly romance although I’m starting to branch out into romantic comedy, paranormal mystery, and cozy fantasy. #booksky

So I wrote a thing on my Substack. open.substack.com/pub/elizabet...

I’m putting this here just because I like it. I took this photo on a walk last week along Chicago’s lakefront on the North Side of the city.

Nearing the end of the 2nd draft of my first ever sapphic Xmas romance. Just in time for Xmas 2025!
