surprise! ☀️ I’m self-publishing my novella, SUNSET YEAR, August 2025! 🌅

SUNSET YEAR is a letter to myself, reminding me what it means to survive. It is also a letter of gratitude to the people who kept me here, just by being near.

part of being a romance author is, I think, looking at different kinds of real life people and trying to understand why they're endearing and lovable, which means constantly looking at people through a lens of love and, you know, I think that's neat

I'm so honoured to be helping @bycjellison.bsky.social n reveal the beautiful cover of his debut, Sunset Year. This book made my cry in the best way. Soft, but unflinching, it's a must for anyone seeking stories with deep friendships and healthy masculinity.

ART and creation are not objective, they are subjective. i AM the worlds greatest author and guess what bud, SO ARE YOU. the hurdle we must all overcome as creators is not talent, it is the hurdle of UNDERSTANDING. we already are all the worlds greatest authors, everything else is a distraction

Both my books are on Kindle Unlimited, so if you like fun cosy fantasy with older characters, or tense, emotional high seas adventure, both full of found family and very queer, you can get both now.

And if you have read and enjoyed, please share. Reader recommendations help so much!

📚 Library patrons! Please check out a book you plan to read someday, but not right now. We won’t be able to tell you haven’t read it, it’s good for our metrics, and it prevents good books from getting weeded when they still have a kindred spirit out there.

thought from my morning trot: the moon has a half shaded way right now that looks a little off. it is not 'aesthetically pleasing' and i cant help think if someone painted it EXACT they would have buds saying 'you gonna fix your moon?' reality can be sloppy and i think some art critique misses that
