Finally got to hold my copy of The Gossip and The Guest in my hands! If two queer love stories, told concurrently with shared characters in regency England sound like your thing, preorder now to hold your own copy on Nov. 20th!

There's something deeply right about listening to Chappell Roan while dressed as a clown from the 30's

Always love a community thread! I wrote a queer Regency Romance series (well, only one's out for now). A scandalous list, a secret identity, a flood of alarming bets: can Gregory and Henrietta navigate the London season and find each other again?

Listen, I know you have someone on your Christmas list that you can't get another dnd book this year. But you COULD gift them an incredible portrait of their OC showing you're thoughtful and have great taste!
Lyanna did a fantastic job on my line art for my novel, see? I would cried if it were a 🎁!

Not sure what I did, but I'm currently having the best month of sales I have yet for my little #queerromance

So if you also want to be cool like those Very Nice People™️, grab a copy of The Lady and The List today!

To stop myself from commissioning more art (portfolio day is killing me!) allow me to show you some I have. This is Isabella Marshton, one of the mcs in book 2 of The Steer Queer Series, The Gossip and The Guest (coming soon!)

Made a graphic, hate it

But I do LOVE this art of Henry I commissioned from the endlessly talented @lyannatropes.bsky.social ! She was so easy to work with and brought my antisocial MC to life!

The Lady and The List is a queer historical romance available: books2read.com/u/3kdAP6

It's been a minute since I posted anything from The Gossip and The Guest. But this scene was actually born of my realization that it had yet to rain. In England 😂

About to write a scene in which my MMC is just this

Got a new kitten who was too scared to come close to me. Yesterday I coaxed him out finally by just talking to myself about future pairings for my Regency series 😅

Anyway this is Phantom

My middle sister(22) has been my cover artist for years {see examples}. I recently commissioned my youngest sister (13) to draw the puppy in The Gossip and The Guest. So far she's asked 2x the questions I ever got for a cover render 😅

Want historical romance with queer protagonists? A real historical list of prostitutes wreaking havoc on an otherwise good boy? A bi awakening through a daring rescue?
Check out The Lady and The List (on sale if not the zon, until 8-31!)

Holy shit! Somewhere there's a library that stocks digital copies of The Lady and The List! Getting into a library as a self published author feels like a dream come true, to be honest. Thank you to whoever is responsible 💚

I'm overrun by tomatoes which would be great, if I like vegetables. Still like growing them though!
Truly the garden has become such an escape for me. Even turned me around*very* slightly on hating summer

My goal for July was to sell 15 copies of The Lady and The List (I've sold one). I think my August goal is even scarier: one review on any platform.
If you'd like to help me achieve either of those, you can find my queer Regency Romance here:

Wow @gamechangershow.bsky.social really upped the stakes this season
Can't wait to see what the prompt was. I hope it's: Jurassic Park Something

I'm shocked I didn't get a bingo!
"Isabella was sprawled across the drenched cobbles, her white dress muddied and sodden, plastered to her body. Her honey blonde hair was strewn across her face and the path and Kabil gasped when he saw that it was tinged with blood."

It's crazy to me that this was written in January of this year. 60,000 words later and I'm closing in on the conclusion of The Gossip and The Guest, hopefully by the end of July I'll have stepped into editing!

I'm reading The Unlikely Pursuit of Mary Bennett and it's very good so far. This was so funny I immediately sent it to my sister 😂

The Lady and The List is a Regency Romance with a genderfluid MC
