This means a lot to me and answers questions I’ve had my whole life. I don’t share a lot of personal stuff here but I feel this matters. I’ve been cruel to myself for a long time and am wondering, now, if I can learn to stop doing that. Interested to hear from other folks in the same situation.

In less than a month, my sapphic romantasy THE WOMAN FROM THE WAVES has gotten over 1 million page reads on Kindle Unlimited. I’m in shock, and so grateful for everyone who’s gone on Madeleine and Hæra’s journey. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I love making playlists for my books, and for my sapphic romantasy THE WOMAN FROM THE WAVES I decided to do a proper movie score. Like the book, it’s by turns epic, exciting, heartbreaking, and very romantic. Readers will know why the bonus track is there too 😈

TWFTW is #1 in new releases in LGBTQ+ Fantasy and #2 in the category overall on Amazon! That category is usually dominated by tradpub & m/m. I REALLY hope this is a good sign for indie & small press sapphic books. Thanks to everyone who’s reading!
