Okay last update for the day! 🤞
I've 'finalised' the list for a chapter on contemporary analysis of polyamorous romance published after 2010.
It turns out a lot of you are here! @amergina.bsky.social @rdotspoon.bsky.social @garrettleigh.bsky.social @krisripper.bsky.social you heard it here first 💙

I don't know why I'm so terrible with leaving proper in text referencing till 'later'. If I was like this with grammar, I'd kick my own ass so much more often.
To keep the mood low, I made this figure to depict the skewed nature of polyamorous stories and the forms our othering typically takes.

Not to mention this passage is as true of the homosexuality in IWTV as of the polyamorous vampire family in A Dowry of Blood
Further, Lestat‘s attempt to socially isolate those he purports to care for in the first half of this story can be seen as a similar to threat to Dracula’s in the latter book

Okay let me just say that Hannah Birss' work in reimagining feminist fairy tales is some of the best I've seen since Angela Carter.
And that's before even mentioning the really cool interior art that accompanies each one.

Hiiiii #WeeknightWriters.
This is super good timing because I'm in a bit of a slump with writing this week and I reckon connecting with other writer excitement is the way to solve my problem!
My main WIP is a dystopia right now cause Eat The Rich!!

Serious follow up thought, though:
If I were to open a small press publishing only #polyamorous #writing of fiction / #poetry / #essay / #art, I'd call it Sex Is Great But Literary.
Let's just say... @sexisgreatbutlit.bsky.social for short, if being constrained by a character limit 😅

It's 2025. Is it still too soon to see an independent publishing house opening its doors solely to polyamorous fiction?
I'm not fussy, Really, I'll take polyamory in literally every genre I can get it including, but of *course* not limited, to

As an asexual polyamorous person, I think about this all the time.
I'm even in the middle of an essay, analysing 27 polyamorous stories published between 2010-2024, that features the line:

In February 2019, I was the proud editor of an anthology called Happiness in Numbers.
It was a trailblazer - not just because it was the first anthology to tell solely polyamorous stories, but because it was then, and is still today, the only polyamorous anthology without sex at its core.

This pattern didn’t call for the text at the top but, hell, I had some space in the frame and thought I’d use the words to fill it.

The moment you realise you‘ve been spending too much time writing your Melbourne based dystopia comes when you see this perfectly lovely picture of Melbourne right now and think,
“Hmm, that looks like the perfectly manicured park spaces I was writing about yesterday.”
