It is finished! When She Flies has survived editing and is now ready for @ylva-publishing.bsky.social to turn it into a book. (Out early next year.) Celebrating shall now commence! Pictured is my CEO, Jasmine's, New York office. She's a fiercely artistic soul when she's not ice queening...

"Dawe’s narration goes beyond simply reading the lines; she brings the characters to life with distinct voices, impeccable pacing, and an emotional depth " @leewinteroz.bsky.social @ylvapublishing.bsky.social @tantoraudio.bsky.social @[email protected] thelesbianreview.com/number-6-lee...

“She calls me out on all my bullshit. I find her unaccountably attractive despite being an ex-college softballer and…” her voice dripped with derision, “from the Midwest.” @leewinteroz.bsky.social @ylva-publishing.bsky.social @jennabeebs79.bsky.social

I'm reeling from winning two Goldies for my little romantic comedy lesfic. When I won the Ann Bannon, Sam let out a strangled whooping noise, answering the question, how do you get an ice queen excited? Make their partner happy. 😍 Thank you all! Thanks Ylva! Book link: mybook.to/VengeancePla...

I've just hit 22,000 words on my latest WIP. I shall offer my protag inspirations without a word of comment on what the book is about...

You see through everything and everyone. You are a sphinx of glass. A queen of shards. The first and last I’ll ever meet. That’s ‘why you.’ You are utterly fascinating @leewinteroz.bsky.social @ylvapublishing.bsky.social @sapphicjalapeno.bsky.social buff.ly/FkpexSj

“Do you even know the answer?” “Why do you wish to know me?” Ottilie pinned her gaze back on Monique. “I’ll be gone soon.” “I’ve never met anyone like you.” @leewinteroz.bsky.social @ylva-publishing.bsky.social @rachlhreviews.bsky.social buff.ly/FkpexSj

Psst! My first two Villains series books are ON SALE NOW, only at the @ylva-publishing.bsky.social shop. After those, you'll be all set for my last book in the series, Number Six, when you're done! t.co/quEWFdehN6 There's a whole lot more titles on sale too to check out: #lesfic

Speaking of the legendary Angela Dawe, she’s just confirmed to me she’s agreed to narrate Number Six and is working out scheduling with Tantor to record it. I’m *so* excited. @ylva-publishing.bsky.social

Narrator Angela Dawe has asked me to share this. She’s doing an event on Mar 4 for Old Town Books at the Lyceum in VA if anyone wants to say hi. (She loves her lesfic fans). Sorry for the short notice but she wasn’t sure she’d be able to go til now. 1/2 www.oldtownbooks.com/events/18866...

@leewinteroz.bsky.social deserves all the stars for this magnificent work of literary art!🙌 She's taken a character that seemed void of any emotion & made the reader fall in love with her & root for her to finally be happy. Just incredible!🤯 P.S. Will we see Victoria get her own story?🤞

My newsletter subscribers got the scoop on this a month ago but for everyone else... Check out the people and places that inspired me when I was writing Number Six: au.pinterest.com/leewinteraut...

Now up on Goodreads (and Netgalley)! www.goodreads.com/book/show/22... #romance #books

New Book Review Number 6 by Lee Winter is a unique opposites-attract, age-gap, slow-burn contemporary romance @leewinteroz.bsky.social @sapphicjalapeno.bsky.social @[email protected] @rachlhreviews.bsky.social thelesbianreview.com/number-6-lee...

Out now!

For all the lovers of opposites-attract sapphic romances and lover of Ice Queens: Out tomorrow in the Ylva Shop... Number 6 by Lee Winter (@leewinteroz.bsky.social). This one is set in her Villain series universe and hot, hot, hot!

"'Most people pretend, even to themselves, that they aren't faking things. You own it." ~ @leewinteroz.bsky.social (Hotel Queens, @ylva-publishing.bsky.social) #WLW #sapphic #lesfic www.ylva-publishing.com/product/hote...

Think Big.

The Villains Series continues! Pre-orders are now open for Number Six. My book comes out at Ylva on Jan 29 and everywhere else a week later. www.ylva-publishing.com/product/numb...

“By the way, I’ve decided I’m having you over to dinner.” “What? Wait, you are?” @leewinteroz.bsky.social @taramdscott.bsky.social @jennabeebs79.bsky.social @tantoraudio.bsky.social @ylva-publishing.bsky.social https://buff.ly/40aFO2m

“Please disregard our heckler,” Olivia said. “The bookstore owner—who is supplying commentary—clearly has too much time on her hands." @leewinteroz.bsky.social @taramdscott.bsky.social @jennabeebs79.bsky.social @tantoraudio.bsky.social @ylva-publishing.bsky.social https://buff.ly/40aFO2m

NEW Audiobook addition: Vengeance Planning for Amateurs by Lee Winter "Cat Gould is an Australian narrator and her performance is superb. " @leewinteroz.bsky.social @taramdscott.bsky.social @jennabeebs79.bsky.social @tantoraudio.bsky.social @ylva-publishing.bsky.social https://buff.ly/40aFO2m

This book is so much fun!!! It made me want to be in Olivia's book club. Great characters and the writing is witty as hell. @leewinteroz.bsky.social must be a blast to hang out with. Brilliant book. @catgould.bsky.social 's delivery is spot on. Highly recommend.

My first review for Number Six! Thanks Carrie. It's out Jan 29.

Sapphic Book Bingo 2025 has kicked off! @jaeauthor.bsky.social has already penned her first blog of the year about one of the categories: books with two popular tropes. She even mentions a couple of my books. 🥰 Read on... jae-fiction.com/tropes-you-l...

Day 22: favorite sapphic ice queen romance. @leewinteroz.bsky.social is the queen of ice, but her books are usually serious and a bit dark. Vengeance Planning for Amateurs, in contrast, is super funny and really shows off how versatile an author Winter actually is. I loved the audiobook! 🌈📚

I'm stoked that *mainstream* crime-book lovers group @sistersincrimeaust.bsky.social have named Vengeance Planning for Amateurs in their Best Holiday Reads for the year. sistersincrime.org.au/best-holiday... A huge honour for amateur revengers and penguins everywhere. 😁 @ylva-publishing.bsky.social
