Final Friday Self-Promotion - my other early book series made stronger, faster, and better.

THE PUSH CHRONICLES is a deconstruction and reconstruction of comic book heroes and villains. Book 1, INDOMITABLE, and book 2, INJUSTICE, are out now, with book 3, INFAMOUS, coming out later in 2026
Six months after the world is twisted into a comic book reality, Irene Roman continues to search for a way to return the world to normal as the heroine Indomitable. But she has personal demons and real monsters to battle to have a chance. #booksky 📚💙🪐

Friday Self-Promotion rolls into SONGS & SORCERY. Combine a noir murder mystery with queer romantasy, get rid of those pesky humans and fill in with anthropomorphic animals, and you get a novel that sold out at every convention big and small last year.
In a post-human world of magic, mystery, and uplifted animals, Junior Watchdog Vela Redmane must crack a sordid murder case before she becomes the next victim in this meeting of film noir and queer romantasy.

More Friday Self-Promotion! Standing out as one of my first titles, THE OPENING BELL is queer pro-wrestling action, generational drama, and a bit of romance to spice it up. And keep reading through the whole complete series, THREE SECONDS TO LEGEND!
In the hyper-real world of professional wrestling, Leilana is a talented rookie with family secrets. Dana is a grizzled veteran, screwed by the powers that be, looking for one last chance at glory.

And they're set to collide in the ring. #lesfic #booksky 📚🌈

Hey everyone!

I am so sorry to ask for help but I'm in a very dire situation since my mom is in the hospital and I'm stuck with the bill.

I don't expect to hit the $1600 goal but literally ANYTHING helps.

Oh, hey.

Visa and Mastercard now say you can't pay for WoW. Magic the Gathering. FFXIV. DnD. Lord of the Rings. Because they're all "adult" content against their ToS just for being "fantasy".

Let that sink in.

Spread this like wildfire and have people in those circles call them. No quarter.
Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

Back in the day, Twitter used to be really good if I set up a thread to connect freelancers with clients. Let's see if Bluesky can do it.

Clients: if you're looking for freelancers/contractors, get in the comments

Brits, this is what people mean when they say it's coming for us too!!! What the FUCK?! Did you know abortion isn't 'legal' here, just 'decriminalised' as long as you follow a set procedure to receive one? I think it's time we FINALLY started pushing for it to be made fully legal!
