tamara jerée 🖤 THE FLOWERS I DESERVE out now @tamarajeree.com · Nov 18
Hi, new folks! I'm an indie author of paranormal romances about Black lesbians healing from their pasts. My current WIP is an erotic horror novel.

I started my publishing journey with short stories and poetry. My debut novel THE FALL THAT SAVED US is a winner of the 2023 Indie Ink Award.
An illustrated book cover featuring two Black figures posed like Michelangelo's painting The Creation of Adam. At the top of the cover, a horned succubus with wings reaches towards a haloed woman with braids. The angelic woman is dressed in white and holds a dagger in her right hand. Illustration by Syd Mills (@vetyyr) An illustrated book cover featuring a background of silvery slender trees. On the right, a Black woman with short bleached hair wears an oversized leather jacket. Her eyes shine red as she meets the devoted gaze of the red wolf on her left. One hand gently holds the wolf's chin. The other is placed reverently on the wolf's mouth. The title text A WOLF STEPS IN BLOOD is set in a mysterious, sharp serif. Illustration and design by Northyme

a trope map with a book cover at the center. clockwise, the map reads: teatime flirting, atmospheric and lush, hot women doing gross things, the weight of unattainable atonement, hell is a fae world actually, flawed chosen one, liberators service vs punitive sacrifice, dreams as knowledge, freedom in the forbidden, homesickness for a place that never affirmed you but that you belong to all the same. book cover description: illustrated by Elaine Ho with typography by Cass at Opulent Designs. A regal Black woman gazes at the viewer. She is larger than life, towering head and shoulders above a dark castle. Her white horns are twined with flowering vines, and her red braids flow over the castle, hair transforming to a pool of blood at the foundation. She holds a white magnolia bloom. The title The Flowers I Deserve is set against the red in a sharp white serif font.

Hi #booksky

Gonna be vulnerable for a moment—I'm losing a big chunk of income because things are rough for indie bookstores right now. I'll be depending on my royalties while I look for more work.

My new book is an atmospheric FFF+ gothic fantasy.

I'm on this CBC list of 10 short Canadian SFFH reads for the Summer with lots of friends.
I do think Countess is a good novella to try out Space Opera with. It's a dark book but its an emotional story and it's got good food and it is short! Trying new things is good!

I'm so excited to help reveal the breathtaking cover of The Flowers I Deserve by Tamara Jerée @tamarajeree.com ! If you know me, you know I LOVE Tamara’s writing and I couldn’t be more excited for this upcoming release, if I tried. 🧵
Three books sit above a wood slice. The books from left to right are: Rainbow Crate edition of The Fall that Saved Us, Satisfiction edition of The Fall that Saved Us, and a paperback of A Wolf Steps in Blood. Below this is The Flowers I Deserve (edited in) on the wood slice. A candle sits to the right of it. Below the book are red and black flowers.

itchio pulling the rug out from so many queer creators overnight with no warning or explanation makes me ache all over. it’s so deeply fucked. watching this shit happen again and again is so fucking exhausting and disheartening and makes it so much harder to keep creating.

I read the first book in this series (SECRET SPARK) back in December and had such a good time!! I loved Joan and Sadie together, and the tension around Joan's secret identity had me sinking into my chair. I genuinely wanted them to be ok and am so excited for the sequel! Also Joan is literally hot.
