With attacks on trans ppl now being lead by the govt, I'm reposting my CrimeReads article about using fiction to humanize trans ppl and hopefully change some attitudes. Clearly, there remains a lot of work to do, but now is not the time to be silent. crimereads.com/can-a-fictio...

I loved SECRET IDENTITY and have been waiting for this one! @alexsegura.bsky.social does not disappoint!

I enjoy @roboslerwriter.bsky.social Hayden and Friends Mysteries and couldn't wait to read his latest, THE CASE OF THE MISSING MAID. It does not disappoint, great historical mystery. Grab a copy on December 24th!

Grab one while you can! Love Rob's work!!

I can’t think of a book that encapsulates the love and heartbreak of comics more than ALTER EGO. I forced myself to make time to read it because it’s so hard for me to make time to read prose purely for entertainment but pure entertainment it was. Trust me, you want to read this

Love seeing so many Native written books! Thanks ‪@paperbackbish.bsky.social‬ for posting!
