WHO LIKES QUEER BOOKS?

I have a short contemporary fantasy murder mystery available for ARC readers (or any readers, truly) if anyone is interested in a repentant demon and a bratty faerie who feels called to make the demon start sinning again.

So apparently there's a #rapture on Tuesday. Seems like a great time to download some free books about a smart-ass half-demon saving the world from the powers of Hell 👀

A screenshot of a still from the American tv comedy series ‘Who’s line is it anyway’. The still is in two halves: the top and the bottom. The top is a still of male presenter Drew Carey, sitting behind a table with the audience in the background holding a piece of card: the text over the top half of the still says: ‘Things to say that will always start a fight.’ The bottom half of the still shows the American comedian Ryan Stiles standing in front of a purple and blue backdrop. The text over the top says: ‘Everybody deserves food and shelter before anybody deserves rental properties or yachts. ‘

Me: I'm going to #write this Tam Lin retelling to market if it kills me 😤

Also me: okay but what if it was about an unhinged #transgender vet who comes at the faerie queen with a gun? 👉🏻👈🏻

THE BOOK OF THE UNNAMED MIDWIFE by @megelison.bsky.social.

What a wonderful novel. Follows a midwife wandering a post-plague America secretly supplying birth control to outnumbered, enslaved women. Humane & complicated & messy & dire & inspiring. And, wow, TIMELY.

As a folks seemed keen on the idea of written author interviews (hermits unite!), I've dusted off my interview questions and added some new ones.

If you'd like to do an interview on my blog, email me with the subject line AUTHOR INTERVIEW REQUEST and I'll send the Q&A on!

I like to make stickers related to whatever book I'm releasing, but these feel more appropriate for my release in February. #indieauthor

New rule: tech broligarchs can't cite sci-fi or fantasy unless they've demonstrated they've read the source material and could get at least a B on a freshman-level essay on it.
