I'm thrilled to share my next novel, Firefly: Aim to Misbehave! Firefly is the TV show that made me a science fiction fan to begin with. Twenty years later, and here I am putting my stamp on canon! I hope you'll enjoy the crew's adventure on a little moon with big personalities! 🪿

Lesbians get hyped! I've got a story in this sapphic SFF anthology centered on the element of fire! My story's about a knight on a quest to the fire swamp. It's got hurt/comfort, a himbo with a single brain cell, and fire breathing chickens! Coming your way September 17th!

I'm happy to see that Space Wizard Science Fantasy is getting close to their funding goal. They're a small, indie publishing house focused on putting more queer SFF into the world. The owner is wonderful. Please consider backing this project. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/s...

One thing I've been meaning to start doing more again is post more aromantic and asexual book recommendations again. I figured #PrideMonth was a good time to start, and I at least put together slides with some favourites

Including mine. They def ARE favourites!! 🌈📚 🌈💫🚀

We all stand against book bans in theory, but 4 librarians in Prattville, Alabama lost their jobs standing against them. Please join me in donating to the GoFundMe that will help them make ends meet in this tough time.

Show me a receipt, I'll give you a compliment
