Really enjoyed “I Think I’m in Love With an Alien” by @annaguirre.bsky.social. Featuring a sweet human-alien romance, found family, an extraterrestrial convention, and an ending that purely made me happy.
A book cover featuring a lizardlike giant alien with green-blue-purple scales embracing a smiling, short-haired human woman. Book title is I THINK I’M IN LOVE WITH AN ALIEN, author’s name is Ann Aguirre.

Authors, let's start a chain of posts of your FIRST published book! Quote post the cover, a link, and three words about it! Here's mine:

The Shape-Changer’s Wife (1995)

Wizard. Willow. Romance.

A dark-haired woman stares out at the reader. She has pressed her hands to her cheek; there are tree leaves framing her face. Title: The Shape-Changer's Wife. Author: Sharon Shinn. Cover quote from Peter Beagle: "A delight!" Editorial copy: She is beauty. She is temptation. She is not what she seems.

I'm a mediocre photographer at best and my old iPhone doesn't have a great camera anyway, but I can't stop myself from trying to take pictures of celestial amazements. Venus? I think? At sunset yesterday.
Vertical landscape shot. Silhouetted trees in the foreground at the bottom of the frame; gradations of yellow to pink to blue to gray from the bottom to the top of the frame; and a single white star hanging in the sky right where it turns from pink to blue.

Today is the birthday for my new mystery-romance-sf book ALIBI. I myself am retreating into fiction these days, so maybe everyone else is too.
Cover of a book. Glowing blue cityscape in background. In the foreground, a silhouette of a couple embracing. The edges of her body are starting to disintegrate as she begins to teleport. Author name (Sharon Shinn) at the top of the book, title (Alibi) at the bottom.

Wonderful weekend at World Fantasy Con in Niagara. Highlights were hanging out with @renegade500.bsky.social and @sillysarasue.bsky.social and @marthawells.bsky.social. And of course seeing the magnificent falls.
