As all those artists I admire say: Boop!

A greenhouse sex scene! I had the idea in my head from like January but it just didn't fit plot wise. So, The Gossip and The Guest does not contain one, but the Christmas story I'm working on does 😏 #queerbooks #historicalromance

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas are on strike at corporate stores across the country, fighting for a fair contract and to stop Starbucks’ union-busting. America’s unions stand in solidarity with Starbucks baristas nationwide! #NoContractNoCoffee

The thrift gods have smiled upon me! These jars were $5 together and made in 1975 by the lawson family, apparently. The basket was only $4 and it's huge!!

As it is release day for The Gossip and The Guest, I can finally share this here. If you'd like to read about Edmund and Theo and why exactly they were crawling under hedges, pick up a copy today! books2read.com/u/4DGrEd #queerromance #mlm #queerbooks #historicalromance 📚💙 Art by Jackcryptid

I spy with my little eye something familiar in the bottom right.... 👀

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas are standing up to corporate greed and Starbucks’ unfair labor practices and demanding the fair contract they deserve. No contract? NO COFFEE!

As I'm getting to know these characters in my double lavender marriage installment, I'm realizing that my lesbian couple is just a brunette Sabrina Carpenter and a blonde Chappell Roan if it were 1815 and neither of them were famous And I'm ok with that #queerbooks #historicalromance #wip 📚💙

They make games and movies like they used to. So many of them. Same with books. But the mechanisms you learned about them were totally gutted and changed to only amplify shit that's already popular. It's still there! You're just mostly on your own to find it.

Only one more day until The Gossip and The Guest is released to the world! The Hardwick's are near and dear to my heart, a brother and sister navigating 1814 England. But the arrival of Isabella throws everything out of whack. #queerbooks #historicalromance 📚💙 Portrait by @cuatrojosz.bsky.social

So apparently: "authors shouldn't be political," is doing the rounds again. So let's go over this again. • trans rights are human rights • LGBTQ+ rights are human rights • gay people deserve to marry and adopt • Women's rights are humsn rights. • Believe women • black lives matter

You have to do it because it’s her birthday. Those are the birthday rules. Also: buying trans books just feels good!

Oh no, a gossip columnist wrote about my mc, Isabella! Oops, is that telling? The details in full will be published 11/20/25 when The Gossip and The Guest is released, but curious parties can preorder now: books2read.com/u/4DGrEd a.co/d/aXuRilj 📚💙 #queerbooks #historicalromance

I'm just a girl Standing in front of all the people posting their messages in attached photos Asking you again to please include alt text in the photos so *everyone* can read them

How is it that I can misspell 'decision' with embarrassing regularity but I just absolutely nailed 'chicanery' on the first try?

Only 4 days left until The Gossip and The Guest is released! If you preorder, I'll love you forever, but you'd have to read the book to find out if that happens for Edmund and Theo 😏 #queerbooks #historicalromance 📚💙 books2read.com/u/4DGrEd a.co/d/aXuRilj

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions. Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

made this little preorder post for instagram. Only problem is I do not have an instagram! Preorder it anyway: books2read.com/u/bPMLXz 🌈📚 #indieauthors 🌶️📚💙 🌈💜 #bvm

About half of what it was going to cost to fully fund SNAP in November during the shutdown.

Hit a huge goal today: I was included on a hide your wallet from @smartbitches.bsky.social Did I put myself on this list? Maybe, but that doesn't make it any less cool!!

Only 7 days until The Gossip and The Guest is available at most retailers! But if you can't wait any longer to see how Isabella handles being dropped among strangers or how Edmund approaches the handsome man from the neighboring estate that keeps popping up, you can get it today! 📚💙 #queerromance

Not to worry, he took one look at my swollen face and has been giggling uncontrollably for the last five minutes

Had an extremely disappointing visit to the dentist and sobbed when I got home (really really abnormal for me). Have teared up two subsequent times when I informed different cats that "they took one of my teef". Very excited to see what happens when my partner gets home 🙃

Just spent 30 minutes combing through 3 email accounts/drives to look for a secret project I started in Sept of last year. You know why I couldn't find it? I named it something stupid to keep it secret From myself????? No one else has access to my email 🙃 #writesky #writingcommunity

Finally got to hold my copy of The Gossip and The Guest in my hands! If two queer love stories, told concurrently with shared characters in regency England sound like your thing, preorder now to hold your own copy on Nov. 20th! books2read.com/u/4DGrEd #queerbooks #historicalromance 📚💙

Still some open slots! But the deadline looms so there's no better time than now to grab a copy of this #queerromance

My current WIP is a Christmas anthology following all five couples The Steer Queer Series will have introduced by October 2026. I'm realizing I need to finish the first draft by the end of the year or I'm risking being stuck in Christmas forever 😂 #wip #queerbooks #historicalromance

Word to the wise(r than me): If you make a homemade syrup, try it *before* you make a whole latte for work This tastes like I just dumped a handful of sugar into oat milk and added a pinch of cinnamon and a shot And also there's apple pieces in it

There's something deeply right about listening to Chappell Roan while dressed as a clown from the 30's #halloween2025

"They want to sell us hell and have us pay for it" will be bouncing around my skull for forever

It's been both, for sure. I set a date for the release of The Gossip and The Guest (11-20👀) and set up ARCs for the first time ever (available now!) But the uploading, formatting, correcting cycle is always tough and this time I was sick and juggling a kitten 🤷🏻‍♀️ #writesky #queerbooks #lgbtqwriters

Desperate to know if the most recent Make Some Noise was shuffled in the season order just so Ross's throwaway "we robbed the Louvre" gets in while the pan's still hot #msn #dropout #makesomenoise

This goes for states other than New York too!!!! I'm Californian and my ballot is due soon! I'm planning on spending Halloween morning researching the issues and sharing that information with my entire family so we can turn them in in one shot! This is like the *one* thing you HAVE to do

#writingcommunity If you have a project on the horizon, and you know there's a huge plot hole you have to fix, do you wait to begin until it's patched or do you figure it out along with the characters? I'm curious (but also staring down picking an option 😂) #writesky #romanceauthor #plotproblem

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

ISO: readers who devour queer stories, bonus points if you like regency romances. The Gossip and The Guest is available to ARC readers now! Following 2 characters in concurrent timelines, it's book two of The Steer Queer Series but can be read as a standalone 📚💙 #queerbooks #historicalromance #iso

Hello! My commissions are open again, I have 3 slots available during October! Any question you can send me a dm. Repost are greatly appreciated, thank you! ❤️ 🌸 vgen.co/cuatrojosz #commissions #commissionsopen #supportartists #vgen

Bluesky heard it first: arcs for The Gossip and The Guest are open now! Spaces are limited and reviews are due by 11-21-25. If you're interested in #queer #regencyromance this is for you! 📚💙 #queerbooks #arc #isoarcreaders

Speaking of donating, I'm thrilled that we did raise enough money for my friend M to get her family into a new, cheaper apartment! I'm keeping the fundraiser open because I'm worried the government shutdown will affect their November SNAP benefits and I want M to be able to feed her kids next month

Liberals when candidates defend trans people: "We can't do this, it's too unpopular." Liberals when candidates have a nazi ss tattoo: "it's ok, not all candidates are perfect." Do y'all hear yourselves?!

Edmund, an mc in my upcoming novel The Gossip and The Guest, has a huge crush on this man he sees at a tavern. But there are two problems: 1. The man keeps talking to him but Edmund can't find the right moment to tell him he's Deaf 2. It's 1814 But he's sooo cute! 📚💙 #caulktober #queerbooks

Listen, I know you have someone on your Christmas list that you can't get another dnd book this year. But you COULD gift them an incredible portrait of their OC showing you're thoughtful and have great taste! Lyanna did a fantastic job on my line art for my novel, see? I would cried if it were a 🎁!

I lived with my dad when I was very young and he didn’t apply for food stamps or free school lunches, though we qualified. So, I went hungry. It was awful. I begged neighbors for saltine crackers. I can say it was the worst time of my life. Children shouldn’t go hungry. Restore SNAP benefits.

My partner is going out of town this weekend so hopefully by Saturday night I will have fully formatted and scheduled the release of The Gossip and The Guest, as well as figured out how booksprout works and launched arcs Link will be here soon! 📚💙 #queerbooks #historicalromance
