Gabe's books are so deliciously and unapologetically catty (complimentary) and kinky and narratively engrossing!
Today is release day!!!

This book has *everything*.
-Dorian in therapy
-Laith embracing a new dynamic
-Frank being snarky and sweet
-Sabri kicking ass
-Kenny
-A new bestie for Dor
-Peter in peril
-A high-speed chase (yes, really)
-And more!
I have a book coming out tomorrow. With everything that's happened, I haven't really had the spoons to promote it, but I'm so proud of it, and so far the response from ARC readers has been overwhelmingly positive.

Pre-orders available here: mybook.to/datw

If you like the ideas of horny queers in space fighting for freedom and justice (and really, who among us does not?), you should check out this series.

I had it set for only people I follow, so thank you for pointing it out!

Today was supposed to be the last day of this deal, but I'm extending it until the 14th, which is the last day to pay my back rent before they start pursuing eviction. I really need a place to live, especially given how bad Minnesota winters are. Please get in contact with me if you need an editor.
To celebrate the end of a truly awful year and the beginning of one that we all hope will be a million times better, I'm offering 50% off on my edits!

I have openings as early as March, so DM or email me (gabrielhargraveauthor@gmail.com) to book today!

Such a great series. If you like queer space opera science fiction fantasy, you should be reading this.

It's Patron-only, but it's available at every level, and it's the entire first scene of chapter five, where you get to meet Dorian's therapist for the first time as well as see a flashback to when Dorian and Yousef first met.

We’re in the same boat when it comes to genres. When people ask what I write, it almost sounds like I’m giving the “wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey” speech. LOL!

Then you will *love* the 3rd book. Dorian is the most Dorian he’s ever been, just with the added bonus of therapy and respect for boundaries. 🤣
January 9, 2026 at 2:16 PM
I would like to read this yesterday, thanks. LOL! I have such a soft spot for gaslamp fantasy.

And I’m so glad you liked it! I only had one alpha or beta reader guess the twist, and she was actually just making a joke, so when it happened, she was, like, “Gabe? What? No! No, I was kidding! What?” 🤣
January 9, 2026 at 1:17 PM
Ooooh, I’m so curious what you’re writing.
January 8, 2026 at 6:31 PM
*does a happy dance*

LMAO

See, I was gonna say joint book birthday party, but if it’s your actual birthday around that time, then that should be just for you.
January 6, 2026 at 5:45 PM
That’s why I chose that date! (It’s not, but we can pretend. LOL!)
January 6, 2026 at 5:44 PM
We are 3 weeks away from the release of The Dahlia & the Wizard! Let's make sure we've got everything.

*Sarcastic alien? Check!
*Complicated polycule? Check!
*Adorable West Highland terrier? Check!
*Dorian's gun? Check!

...Wait, Dorian's WHAT???

This offer is still available and will be until January 10th. Editing is what pays my bills, and I'm behind on rent, so it's important that I book people ASAP.

You'll get an amazing edit at a great rate ($0.01/word), and I'll get to live somewhere, which I think is a beautiful exchange. LOL!
