My wife and I were trying to keep a layer of separation between us and our new barn cats. It... did not work.

I am floored that Treason continues to wind up on the USA Today list after being published in May 2024. This kind of longevity is shocking for an author. Thank you all SO much for supporting these cozy lesbians!!

Everyone, meet Tabitha and Tortellini, our newly adopted barn cats! Huge thanks to Wild Blue Cats in Colorado Springs for protecting these kitties until we could take them home!

The world is burning, but I disconnected for a couple of weeks to build a very cool cat house. It has a second story, insulated walls and roof, shutters that open for airflow, and access doors for us. 😂

Over a year after its release, Treason hit the USA Today list again! I'm so, so lucky to have awesome readers like you who continue to support these sapphic, sword-wielding ladies!

Alchemy and a Cup of Tea, the FINAL book in this quartet, is out August 12th!

I'm just going to be screaming about this kickstarter for a bit--it funded in UNDER AN HOUR!!! Sapphic love, tiny dinosaurs, and high society? Say less.

Congrats, Wren!! Kicking ASS. Also, love this AI statement she included. 🥰

Support it! www.kickstarter.com/projects/wre...

Hint: it's NOT cozy.

Second week on the USA Today list??? And my number barely moved: 73 -> 78!! This is incredible for any book, but especially a sequel! Thank you all SO much for your continuing support of this sapphic series! #tomesandtea

When you partner with your local bookstore to offer signed preorders--but that means you have to actually sign preorders. LOL.

RIP to my hand.

TEA YOU AT THE ALTAR comes out TOMORROW!! Are you guys getting excited?? I know I can't WAIT for the first new #TomesandTea book since Feb 2023. O.O
March 3, 2025 at 4:54 PM
Just bought this book from @sonorareyes.bsky.social ! Did you guys know they dropped a new novel? :D I'm so excited for this one--it's fake dating to the max. (Also that name: The Broprosal. LOL. Right up my alley!) Can't wait to dive in!!

Have you read this book? 👀

I commissioned a gorgeous mechanical keyboard for better ergonomics, and it just came yesterday and ohhh my god. It uses fairy switches, and it's literally almost silent. OBSESSED.

Now taking keycap suggestions. I'm going to have so much fun playing with color on this thing. >.>
