Here it is, the last #SingAlongFriday for #OnlyAChapter. You all know what to do. youtu.be/jPCJIB1f7jk

Only 5 days left to back Lesbians in Space: The Sapphics Strike Back! And, we're nearly to the next two stretch goals for more payment for authors and the release of the last fancy hardbacks of the original anthology. Can you help us get over us over the edge? #LesbiansInSpace #QueerBooks

Number two for #SingAlongFriday is "Part of Me" by Evanescence. Just as with Clare in my book, "I will be more than my survival." Stay tuned in two weeks for the dramatic conclusion of the song list from Only a Chapter! #Author #Romance

The BackerKit campaign for Lesbians in Space: The Sapphics Strike Back is live! If you missed your chance to get a limited edition hardback of the first one, there are only a few left, so get in there quickly.

The campaign for Lesbians in Space: The Sapphics Strike Back is almost here! Sign up below to be notified on launch so you can get in on the good stuff. Quantities are very limited on the fancy hardbacks of the first anthology, so if you want to grab one of those, get in there early to snag one!

Number three for #SingAlongFriday is "Dream On." Originally by Aerosmith, but I'm providing a cover version that I think is exceptional (as covers go). This song is used for a pretty pivotal moment in Only a Chapter, and if you don't know, you should read it to find out.

There are only four more songs left for #SingAlongFriday. So, I'm going to count it down with No. 4: "Shivers" by Ed Sheeran. Which three are left? If you've read Only a Chapter, you might be checking them off in the included song list, or pick up a copy so you can follow along for the epic finale.

This week, we have "Between the World and You" by The Hawk in Paris for #SingAlongFriday. We all have those times when we need someone to stand between us and the world. Clare was lucky enough to have a whole host of friends and supporters in her journeys.

For this week's #SingAlongFriday, we have Adele's "Set Fire to the Rain." This was one of the first songs I selected as a Chapter/Part title because it perfectly coincided with an epic breakup on a rainy night.

For #SingAlongFriday this week, we have "Where the Light Shines Through" by Switchfoot. This one really hit differently after I had surgery and had more scars, but I know that "the wound is where the light shines through." 🩷

This week's #SingAlongFriday is "Taking Over Me" by Evanescence. I think this song really speaks to the way the dreams are used in Only a Chapter.

For #SingALongFriday today, we have "Written in the Stars by Vertical Horizon. Enjoy and come see us at Con-Gregate in Winston-Salem this weekend!

On this July 4th, I'm sharing a song for #SingALongFriday that wasn't in my book: "Use My Voice" by Evanescence. "Whether you like it or not, you're gonna take what I got, If we can't talk about it, we'll just keep drowning in it...I will use my voice."

Today's #SingAlongFriday is "Falling Into You" by Celine Dion. Enjoy!

Three years ago today I received the "you've got cancer" call, which makes it my three-year Survivorversary and no coincidence that my book is releasing on Tuesday. My hope is that one day, no one will have to imagine "what if." Until then, hopefully you can all enjoy Only a Chapter. #FirstNovel

Cover quote from USA Today bestselling author Cara Bastone: "Only A Chapter is unique, fresh, and crafted with a deft hand. This book will make you believe in the parts of love that can't be explained or rationalized. It's a confident exploration of what-could-be, of what it means to dream of love."

For this week's #SingALongFriday I've got a group most of you have probably never heard of, but if you know Pentatonix, The Nylons were a much earlier acapella group. This is one of my favorite songs of theirs and I hope you'll give it a listen. #TheNylons
