And for the last day of #DVparty let me introduce the next manuscript I plan to edit and query/publish! LOVE LANGUAGE OF THE SEA is about two men who ultimately don't think they deserve the kind of love they're about to get, and work on how to accept it. It's set half in Mexico and half in France.

Idk why this went online yesterday instead of today 🤫 blame being away from home a month around a big online event. So have it again on the right day! #dvparty

And finally, have a small playlist for HEARTS OF STONE! It's very rare for me to match songs to a book but this was an easy one as it fits a lot of emotional music I love. Any favourite songs in there? #DVparty #LGBT

I always struggle finding memes to represent my book because I rarely think in those terms, but this sums up the central conflict quite well... (spoiler: they did) #DVparty #LGBT

DUSTY BOOKSHOP intro! Niall can't catch a break and it's only the beginning... #DVparty #LGBT

First lines! I'm quite proud of this intro, the first few chapters of this book show the MCs childhood before their lives fall apart and they reunite after 10 years and much tension. The very first chapter might be the softest of the book before things take a turn... #DVparty #LGBT

HEY YOU! Do you like free paperbacks? Do you like chronically ill baddies? Do you like magic schools that weren't invented by a TERF? I'm hosting a giveaway for my sapphic fantasy dark academia novel RIGHT NOW! 2 winners announced October 10th!

Time to drop some identities! This book is from the pov of Niall, who is a mostly chill guy except for touchy family matters, and his budding romance with Kris... But this is still very much a cosy book so the angst will always be short-lived. #DVparty #LGBT

Today let me introduce you to the main characters of Hearts of Stone. This book has 4 different povs but Beryl and Aljaze are the main ones and I hope you'll like them! #DVparty #LGBT
