So excited to get reading my SIGNED copy of Mandy Bex’s Of Dark and Bright. If you like indie fantasy make sure to check out Mandy’s debut novel yourself!

If you want a signed copy of my novels, come visit me and others at Hey Darling on April 26 in Austin, MN from 11-6PM for #indiebookstoreday!

I’m feeling a lot of love both from my local community and global readers on KU—thank you all! I can’t wait for everyone to read my next release, which drops the June 28, AKA the Saturday of @twincitiespride.bsky.social!

About to go restock Rainbow Road with copies of my books because they’re running low on stock—thank you to everyone who has been purchasing copies there & supporting small gay businesses!

Also looking forward to J.E. Joyce’s book fair next month! Make sure her new release this week!

Only a week into April and I’m already almost at a thousand pages read on KU! I know 842 isn’t much to some, but this is huge for me.

Thank you to all who are reading my books—I cannot express how grateful I am!

And just wait… book 3 of the Age of Cain Saga is going to be out before you know it!

I believe I sent the ebook for the third book already to those who’ve previously indicated interest! If I missed you, I’m sorry, you can get one too! Just DM or comment if you’re interested💕

🕊️Calling all ARC readers🕊️

I’m gearing up to release the third book of the Age of Cain Saga this June and would LOVE to send anyone interested in reading this lil queer fantasy series of mine FREE ebooks copies of the books!

Should I aim for a single narrator to read the story or should I assemble a cast to read each character’s dialogue?

🕊️Question on Audiobook composition🕊️

I’m ahead of schedule writing the final book of the Age of Cain Saga. Once I get the final book out, I’ll rerelease the saga after another round of edits completed, and I’m also adding an audiobook component.

I keep telling myself one day all this hard work will be worth it, and I’ll be able to sustain myself off of just my writing one day.

It’s good to have a dream, right?

Keeping up morale as a queer, indie author is hard lately… between today’s political landscape, being an author AND marketer because of budget constraints, and the longer-than-anticipated time it takes to create a profitable catalog, I feel like I could always be doing more.

If you’re looking to support more queer fantasy stories, check out The Lost Story and my The Age of Saga— the first two books of the series (Scorpio Rising and Cardinal Fire) are currently on Amazon!

Amidst rampant attacks on the queer community, our stories need to be shared now more than ever!

🕊️Book review of Meg Shaffer’s The Lost Story🕊️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5
In The Lost Story, where Narnia meets Oz meets modern queer fantasy meets WEST VIRGINIA OF ALL PLACES(?!), I found myself enjoyed an amazing story of love, friendship, and family trauma. I need the sequel NOW!

Thank you for the support! 🥹

On today’s #economicblackout, consider shopping local instead of purchasing from major corporations and use cash instead of card.

My books are available at Rainbow Road in MPLS! Both novels are $20 each, while Hadrian and Antinous is $10!

Omg no I haven’t! I’ll have to check it out!!! Thanks for the rec!

Trying to figure out to optimize my book fair display as a self-published author. Hoping to have an optimal set up for my @twincitiespride.bsky.social booth.

Authors and book lovers, any advice?

I can also say this book has inspired me to want to record my own books as audiobooks. Once I’m done writing the Age of Cain Saga, audiobooks may be next! Indie authors with audiobooks, any tips on starting the audiobook journey?

🧵I finished my first audiobook today, A Court of Thorns and Roses by sarahjmaas, and I loved it! It seemed cliche at first but really picked up for me about a third of the way through! I’m excited to continue the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Thank you!!! It’s a testament to artistic perseverance💕
