Happy December! Want to stuff your stocking with a steamy dark romance? Look no further. Someday Away is a dark college poly romance with plenty of enemies-to-lovers angst, snarky banter, 80/80s/00s throwbacks, found family, LGBTQ+ rep, and a HEA that will really spice your cider. 😏

Tired, dreary day—I’m ferrying to Victoria to visit my favorite aunt in hospice. I think it’ll be the last time I get to see her. This wasn’t really in the plan for Thanksgiving week, but here we are. Book two edits are coming, so here’s hoping Someone Like Me is on track for a January release. 🤞🏻💙

Caturday feels. 🐱

Bisexual stories 🌈📚 often disappear in the algorithms that decide our place in search engines and marketplaces. Time for a thread to share #books, #novels and #poetry by #bi writers, or about bi stories, or with bi characters! 📚👀💙📚📢 #author #writingcommunity #queer

With so many people joining the #WritingCommunity, I feel like I'm missing fellow UK writers! I'm thinking of making a Starter Pack for UK writers so we can commiserate about the recent weather together. Let me know if you'd like to be added! And do share if you'd like! #Author #Booksky #Writing

Bi representation tends to be invisible and therefore hard to find, so I made a starter pack for bi authors and creators of bi art to fill your feed. If you'd like to be included, please reply to this post! 📚👀💙📚📢 #author #writingcommunity #queer go.bsky.app/KYM6MYR

Any peeps local to Bellingham, WA, I just dropped off a bunch of signed copies of Someday Away at Barnes & Noble, and nothing says happy holidays like gifting your conservative relatives a dark, queer, smutty romance book. 😉

Reading Sapphic shifter books is always a good idea 🐺
