So excited to see The Ballad of Robin and King Richard so close to the top 500 in the transgender fiction category. I can’t recall if it’s ever been in the top 500, but if it has, it’s been a long time since it’s been this high up

I’ve been wanting to try and learn to make foods I’ve never cooked before, and yesterday, I finally tried a recipe of Tofu Katsu. I had never fried anything before and have never worked with tofu before, and you know what? It actually turned out pretty well! Especially for my first time

I’m giving a little sneak peak. I’ve been working on my drawing skills, and while I still got some work to do, I have seen a lot of growth. I tried to draw a character I see in my head. Still needs a little work, but the overall aesthetic is there. Can you guess their name?

Guess what? I’m gonna be playing with Ankit and the Apricots on September 6th! If you want to come listen to some sick music and support local Seattle-area artists, all you gotta do is come to Ravenna Park with $10 and a lawn chair (if you’d like). See you there!

One of my favorite places in Final Fantasy 7 was Aerith’s home because not only was it pretty, but the music was gorgeous. Seeing it in the remake was so magical, I just want to live there

Due to the changes of everything in life, I have decided to lower the price of The Ballad of Robin and King Richard to $2.99 for the forseeable future. Hopefully this price (or some future sales that are coming later this year) might help make my book more affordable for everyone.

Was doing some doodling for the first time in a while yesterday and did a doodle of a character that’s been on my mind for a bit but haven’t written yet. So this is Cecil

Also, my partner kept complimenting it and I’ve never felt so happy about a drawing😅

If anyone’s got New Year’s resolutions to read more diversely, The Ballad of Robin and Richard is a queer literary novel that focuses on a father and his kid who comes out as trans, and how they both grow and learn from each other. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s worth a try.
