Approximately six months, three lost deliveries, over 100 emails, and more refreshes of the UPS tracking page than bears thinking about, I have my author copies!!!

If you are a queer author and you have a queer M/F book (in which one or both MCs are queer) please let me know so I can add your book to my TBR.

If you're observing the settler holiday this week, and you have a little extra, please consider donating to mutual aid for Indigenous people or supporting Indigenous causes. We're all here still on stolen land. My favorite is the Native American Rights Fund, but there are many great ones!

I know this week can be really hard for queer and trans folks. So if that's you, remember that I love you and you are under no obligation to hide who you are for anyone. You're perfect. And if your family can't see that, it's their loss.

As 2025 wraps up, I'm looking back at what I did in publishing. I had a couple of really tough years so the fact that I have this much stuff out in the world feels mildly miraculous. For your reading pleasure and consideration for award nominations: maryrobinettekowal.com/journal/mrks...

three people buying a book we didn't really have on our radar at my old bookstore was instant "order more, face it out, somebody on staff read it and write a talker for it" territory

Look at our gal--so freshhh! The majesty, the jewellery, the braids. The authority, the defiance, the gaze. The casual step-on-me energy. Esheme hive, rise--this is our time!

Buy our books, thanks (there is no black Friday sale bc we're run by one guy and pay our artists a good percentage) bulgilhanpress.com/store
