I'm gonna be real-real here: Bookstore Romance Day may not happen in 2026. By this time of year, I've usually secured at least a handful of sponsors & their backing helps pay for things like newsletter services & Canva & Zoom & internet, all of which are needed for planning & off-season events.

Ugh, I can’t stand this publishing startup. They pay people to write fan fiction — they tried to commission a story from me. 831 Stories was founded by MBA brains who saw how lucrative romance is as a genre, and their branding targets lit snobs who think they are better than romance.

Trying to learn more about romantasy. • Does it have to have a dragon? • Is it always set in the past? • Recs for dragon-less romantasy? • Recs for dragon romantasy based on Asian diasporic mythology? [Small vent: every fantasy book should have maps and glossaries w phonetic spellings]

This week's episode of Rebel Ever After is up early! Elissa Sussman and I talked about "older" romance heroines, widow tropes that need to be retired, and why being horny rules. Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/4AcN...

Lots of free books available today only! theunapologeticromancereader.com/p/romance-bo...

If you love romance novels featuring vampires who are kinda vain but in an endearing way, capable heroines who valiantly attempt to battle zombies with a burrito as a weapon, and unapologetic horniness during the apocalypse, @oliviawrites.bsky.social's ZOMROMCOM is for you. And I have the scoop!!

Today's newsletter includes freelance and full-time opportunities, free romances, and books to read if you like The Gilded Age newsletter.romancewithoutapology.com/p/the-gilded...

TONIGHT at 7pm! I'm in conversation at Books Are Magic with Bel Banta about her incredible book HONEY, now in paperback. Tickets available here:

This week on Rebel Ever After, publisher Nina Haines and I gossiped about sapphic representation in romance and her new imprint with Bindery. Listen to this premium episode on Patreon here: www.patreon.com/posts/132917...

The Queer Liberation Library is raising funds to expand its collection on Libby. This newsletter put together a team to contribute $300 to its goal. Can you donate using our link? givebutter.com/Jr8Tfu/the-u...

To celebrate Pride Month, 100+ sapphic fiction authors have joined forces to create a Pride Month Book Calendar! From June 1 to June 30, you’ll find a daily surprise: a free ebook, a book giveaway, or a great deal on a sapphic title. (1/3)

I really think that companies sharing Pride posts should manage the comments sections on these posts. If the post is about Pride, but your whole comments section is full of hate, you’re not actually creating a safe space.

Some of us just have taste.✨ #books

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH! LET'S READ SOME GAY BOOKS.

Getting stuck while we're writing is a feature, not a bug. It's the point of the exercise. It's what happens when we are trying to express something we have not expressed before. That friction forces us to make the tools we need to understand and express it. Getting stuck is how we make meaning.

AAPI Heritage Month is for discovering new favorite authors and books to read all year long.

I cannot believe that a newspaper used AI to generate a fake summer reading list. Those are the fun articles to write! One of my goals for this year is to have the money to commission people for @romancewithoutapology.com because more book reporting is so needed!!
