New Article on #Substack:

This week I'm talking about the queerness in Alechia Dow's "A Song of Salvation". Warning for book spoilers. I really enjoyed writing this so I'd appreciate any and all feedback.

Can be found here: parallelanpress.substack.com/p/cosmically...

It is 100% free.
An ad for a substack essay. It reads "Cosmically Queer: A Reflection On "A Song of Salvation" by Alechia Dow. It also lists two social media handles: "parallelanpress.substack.com" and "parallelanprincess.bsky.social". Two speech bubbles feature quotes from the substack article. The first speech bubble reads "The Wesley/Rubin romance isn't a coming out story, it's a fully fleshed out love story." The second speech bubble reads "Zaira, Wesley, and Rubin are a queer found family that isn't arranged in a patriarchal, nuclear family structure." Two social media links are listed: "parallelanpress.substack.com" and "parallelanprincess.bsky.social." A quote from the substack article on a starry background. It reads, "The novel's character descriptions and unapologetic queerness are reasons why it deserves far more attention and accolades." Two social media handles are listed "parallelanpress.substack.com" and "parallelanprincess.bsky.social."

Hello #booksky and #writersky, I recently wrote a #substack post that serves as a crash course in the scifi novels of Alechia Dow. I talk about my relationship with scifi, the shared universe of the three novels, & what they mean to me.

Read it here: parallelanpress.substack.com/p/my-favorit...
A panel of three book covers. The heading of the panel says "My Favorite Universe: The Works of Alechia Dow." The three book covers are "The Sound of Stars", "The Kindred", and "A Song of Salvation." All three books were written by Alechia Dow. A picture of a sheet of notebook paper with words written on it. It reads " Writers and readers started doing the hard work compiling lists, reviews, and videos of books featuring diverse protagonists who weren’t the token best friend and didn’t die at the end of their stories. It was through these efforts that I met my current favorite science fiction writer, Alechia Dow." A piece of notebook paper with words written on it. It reads "In the past, I’ve struggled to understand what constitutes as a 'queerplatonic relationship.' After reading A Song of Salvation, I finally get it"

I finished my first substack post. It's a mini character analysis of Rumi, Mira, & Zoey from K-Pop Demon Hunters. I focus on how their unseen families contribute to which specific character tropes they defy. It's pretty wordy

Here's the link.
