About to go restock Rainbow Road with copies of my books because they’re running low on stock—thank you to everyone who has been purchasing copies there & supporting small gay businesses!

Also looking forward to J.E. Joyce’s book fair next month! Make sure her new release this week!

Only a week into April and I’m already almost at a thousand pages read on KU! I know 842 isn’t much to some, but this is huge for me.

Thank you to all who are reading my books—I cannot express how grateful I am!

And just wait… book 3 of the Age of Cain Saga is going to be out before you know it!

🕊️Question on Audiobook composition🕊️

I’m ahead of schedule writing the final book of the Age of Cain Saga. Once I get the final book out, I’ll rerelease the saga after another round of edits completed, and I’m also adding an audiobook component.

Keeping up morale as a queer, indie author is hard lately… between today’s political landscape, being an author AND marketer because of budget constraints, and the longer-than-anticipated time it takes to create a profitable catalog, I feel like I could always be doing more.

🕊️Book review of Meg Shaffer’s The Lost Story🕊️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5
In The Lost Story, where Narnia meets Oz meets modern queer fantasy meets WEST VIRGINIA OF ALL PLACES(?!), I found myself enjoyed an amazing story of love, friendship, and family trauma. I need the sequel NOW!

On today’s #economicblackout, consider shopping local instead of purchasing from major corporations and use cash instead of card.

My books are available at Rainbow Road in MPLS! Both novels are $20 each, while Hadrian and Antinous is $10!
February 28, 2025 at 8:55 PM
I finally got copies of Hadrian and Antinous! Come get your physical copy at Alloy Brewing Company on May 18 from 1-4 PM. I’ll be selling physical copies of Hadrian and Antinous as well as my fantasy novels, Scorpio Rising and Cardinal Fire!

Trying to figure out to optimize my book fair display as a self-published author. Hoping to have an optimal set up for my @twincitiespride.bsky.social booth.

Authors and book lovers, any advice?

🧵I finished my first audiobook today, A Court of Thorns and Roses by sarahjmaas, and I loved it! It seemed cliche at first but really picked up for me about a third of the way through! I’m excited to continue the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Perk of being an indie author: Publishing whenever you want!

Today, I rereleased my Shakespearean-style queer tragedy Hadrian & Antinous on Amazon after releasing it on Wattpad in 2017.

Why? Valentines Day is tomorrow, duh!

thank you to Kendrick and the Eagles for making terrible people angry tonight

I hope white america turns off the TV & instead of booing artists, we wake up already.

It’s time to thank Black America for constantly working to redeem the US.

From Harriet Tubman to MLK Jr. to Kentaji Brown Jackson to Harris (yes, I said it) to #KendrickLamar, our best have always been Black.

🕊️I finally have all my books for @twincitiespride.bsky.social’s Queer Writes Book Fair next Sunday🕊️

🕊️Trans people are NOT the enemy🕊️

Anyway… support trans authors. Support trans creatives. Buy gay books. Start a queer book club.
February 7, 2025 at 9:40 PM
Any other self-published authors find that when they’re struggling to consistently market their books, they cope with writing more?

…or is it just me?😂👀

🕊️Spilling some tea on KDP🕊️

As if Amazon needed another PR crisis, me and many other self-published authors are frustrated with KDP delivery times and frequency.

I’m excited to be soon sharing both my novels through Ingram Spark!

Any other authors moving over to Ingram? Lmk in the comments!

I just applied for a grant to expand the reach of my queer novels in Minnesota!

Queer authors: we need to be bold, ask for the opportunities we deserve, and fight book censorship.

The most privileged among us (white, cis, male queers) need to do what we can to supports trans & queer BIPOC authors.

Question for my fellow queer self-published authors: if I’m attending a Pride festival that historically has had 500K visitors (and planning for more than that this year) how many books should I stock up on?
