Coming Nov 22: the last in my MMM #regency #polyamory novella trilogy! This one's Ash's POV, as he's trying to juggle a new ducal title, an Antiquarian Society lecture, well-meaning partners (who think he needs help), & a terrible migraine! @jms-books.com #BookSky

Happy to announce I'll have a story in this year's @jms-books.com 2025 Top Ten Gay Romance anthology, out December 27! My contribution is "Hexes of Bronze," one of the Aric/Emrys #swordandsorcery (but very queer!) stories! Such a great line-up of fellow author-friends, too! #BookSky #lgbtq #romance

The innocent sleeping shape of someone who will absolutely stick her head all the way in the bag and eat your pumpkin-spice drizzled kettle corn
#CatSky #cats
A small black house cat sleeping in a ball, tail wrapped around herself. She sleeps the sleep of someone who doesn’t care that she licked all our kettle corn popcorn.

We had #blackcatday but now it’s apparently #nationalcatday today! Here’s Miss Merlyn being annoyed I woke her up. #cats #blackcats #CatSky 😻🐈‍⬛

Didn’t grab a pic at our actual local #nokings protest (didn’t stay long b/c heat + people + social anxiety, but we wanted to show support!) but here’s a pic of my rainbow bracelet & yellow hair tie, plus we came home & made an @aclu.org donation!

Happy #letterwritingday ! Back in 2023, I wrote a story to celebrate - and so did a few @jms-books.com author-friends! A Flowering of Ink is one of my personal favorites - I had so much fun with their letter-gifts, as Burne and Devon fall in love through words… 🏳️‍🌈💜📖 #romance #mmromance #BookSky

For #bookloversday we inadvertently celebrated by building a new bookshelf (the one under the window) (hence the box) & reorganizing the library. (Not pictured: one more shelf in a different room upstairs + two downstairs that have books / board games.) #BookSky
💜📖💜
Home library with three full walls of bookshelves, a blue rug, a new low shelf under the window, a pillow shaped like Yoda from Star Wars on a corner chair, and an open cardboard box that held the new shelves for assembly!
