This little adventure was one of my personal highlights of 2025. Thanks to @danifinnwrites.bsky.social for making it possible. 💜😊
Little personal bit of joy: I gave a copy of @danifinnwrites.bsky.social 's book for a giveaway, and I asked that instead of the signed copy of the book, she'd autograph something for me, and this card is so lovely, and y'all mean so much to me. 🥹💜

Here's a visual of all the books I read this year. Not a crazy amount, but way more than I have in the past, so I'm proud of that. It was a great year for queer and trans fiction for me this year, and I'm looking forward to reading even more in 2026!

Super-deluxe versions of old books should have larger print.
Like, you want to make a spectacular tome, no expense spared, I want to buy one, but if I'm buying that, I want to still be able to read it in ten-twenty years, and I think the general audience skews older.
