We have been very quiet in 2025 but that will change soon. Plans are being laid out for PrideCAF 2026. But before that we have a few things cooking that are almost ready to announce.

Hold on just a bit longer....

Good luck to everyone who may or may not be manically prepping for @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social next weekend. Sadly, our personal funds have not been able to facilitate us to attend this year, we hope to come visit in 2026 if we can. We shall attend via people's social feeds.

This is such a shame.. you have done such great work for the industry.

This is really sad to hear, Quindrie have been an awesome platform for LGBTQ creators. It's so sad to see things like this happen in the industry. We need publishers like this in the world and it's so sad to lose one. May your 2026 be happy and fruitful @quindriepress.com.

Quindrie Press will close at the end of 2026. A full statement with FAQ is available to read on the Quindrie Press website.

I have made the incredibly difficult decision to close down Quindrie Press at the end of 2026. Please read my full statement, along with information about what's next at Quindrie and an FAQ, here: quindriepress.com/closing

Thanks @aruudlay.itch.io, yep, we exist. No festival this year but hope to announce things for 2026 in Oct.

GOING LIVE IN 25 MINS www.youtube.com/live/UIbNumn...

This weekend, I'm very much looking forward to talking Queer Monsters with the awesome @pridecaf.bsky.social for their charity livestream!
Do come join!

www.instagram.com/p/DFvyrWHIjK...

Stories of monsters have always resonated with queer experiences of self-discovery, repression, and ultimate liberation. Join our chat with @letzoespoilyou.bsky.social about monsters, horrors and the growing community of monster romance. Expect themes of slightly raunchy monster chat.

Thats really nice to hear, thanks for the repost. Hope we meet again someday.

Join the @eoelsewhere.bsky.social as four love angsty disaster lesbians embark on a daring heist to strike at the heart of the maliciously heteronormative Imperial Patriarchy in this zany and scifi adventure sapphic romp! Starting at 16:15 on the 8th of Feb on the PrideCAF YouTube channel.

Next up at 12:45 we'll have @fiotrethewey.bsky.social and @georgiacooked.bsky.social challenging Nate to drawing Dr Who creatures. A series he knows NOTHING about. Will he get it right just from descriptions or will he mix up his Who's from his What's?
