This is such a great story, I highly recommend it!
Publishing news! I'm beyond thrilled to finally share that my queer southern gothic horror novella—set in 1930s Louisiana about a haunted man, a murdered child, a charismatic bank robber, and a disappearing town—THE BAYOU will be coming out in audiobook from Tantor Media.

Sorry but folks who want to read old work are better off reading authors with more universal appeal like Russ, Delaney, Butler, and Le Guin rather than work by a sex pest, a child molester, and a fascist.
Those dudes are actually pretty irrelevant to the genre today ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I read (and loved) One and Done, by Frederick Smith, contemporary MM romance. There’s a lot of emotion in this book; the MCs are mature people who know what they want, they just need to learn how to compromise so they can fit into each others’ lives.

I was getting very frustrated by the male-dominated punditry about the election, and very little space being given to women, and the rage that so many of us feel right now. So I wrote something: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
