Post-spay! The nurse said she behaved perfectly the entire time & that none of the staff wanted her to go home 🥹

the cutest that ever was!!

thank you so much!

lmao 100% correct

Y’all most of what’s getting me through the hell that is the world and my life the last few weeks is knowing next year I get to read this.

I so hope you love it!

“Six,” she said. “I’ve been with six people.” “All men, I assume.” “Of course they were all men. What, do you think that I’ve been sleeping with other women this whole time? That I’ve spent my entire life as some sort of secret—” Anne stopped, her cheeks warm. “You can say the word,” Sadie said gently. “Lesbian. It won’t hurt you. It’s not going to grab your purse in some gay alley and run off butchly into the night. And you don’t have to claim it for yourself either, you know. It’s just a word.” No. Sadie was very wrong about that. It wasn’t just a word. Not at all.

For today’s #lesficfri theme “sleep,” a short excerpt from THE SECOND DRAFT, my forthcoming sapphic romance about an icy socialite who realizes she’s in love with her free-spirited best friend, catalyzing a journey of late-in-life self-discovery that changes everything. Out in 2026!

Thank you!!

Absolutely stunned & thrilled to share that Loser of the Year is a finalist for the 2025 Lambda Literary Awards in the Lesbian Romance category. A deep, heartfelt thank you to @lambdaliterary.org. I’m grateful beyond the telling of it.

Update: copy claimed yesterday by the fabulous @sagaciousapphic.bsky.social , who (correctly) named Jonathan from TWFTW as their favorite side character of Roslyn’s. Sorry, Cranli!

that makes me so so happy!! thank you 💙💙💙

"Madeleine’s hand still rested on her arm. How strange, that the touch could anchor Hæra to earth at the same time it made her feel light enough to fly without wings.

If you’ve been waiting for both books in @jaeauthor.bsky.social’s shapeshifter duology to be released before picking them up, the time is here! You can get your copies of Enemies by Nature and Shifting Nature now (the link is for the latter): mybook.to/ShN5

We were right here during our Orkney trip two summers ago, when @writingroslyn.bsky.social was maybe 50-75 pages into her first draft! I remember fantasizing out loud about TWFTW being sold there one day. And now it's actually happening. Legitimately a little teary 🥹

This book is truly wonderful. It’s smart, challenging, and beautifully written. Run, don’t walk.
