HAPPY PUB DAY TO PINK HYDRA 5!!! You can read my spicy Jonathan Harker x Dracula interlude "Body and Mind" for FREE in this issue 🦇🦇🦇

✨🌶️✨Speculative smut I've been working on recently:

🐺(Old Norse) Woodsman sacrifices himself to cure his lord's beastly curse
🩺(Medieval English) Lady suffering from malaise is "treated" by a talented genderfluid apprentice
🤖(Scifi) Trans woman's gender affirming cyborg surgery = spicy techno sex

Can't wait for this issue to drop!! (one of these warnings applies to my piece - guess which one 👀🧛)

So excited to write something for this call! What a fabulous theme.

like a thief and an assassin, 99p - an adhd thief plays with his cold and retiring new handler.

more than coffee by johannes t evans for 99p - oblivious autistic accountant gets his coffee at an obvious criminal front

the devil's mark by johannes t evans for 99p - after his father's execution, a young man trails after his executioner.

the lord of the wood's spring bride by johannes t evans for 99p - plump trans dressmaker gets embroiled in a local spring festival for a fae lord.

Books books books, and these shorts and novellas are only 99p each!

Romance! Smut! Horror! Fantasy! Queer characters, trans characters, neurodiverse and disabled characters!

Available wherever you buy your eBooks, Amazon, Itch, B&N, and also on my website at www.johannestevans.co.uk/shop!

Will you be shipping to the United States? If not, what is the best way for US folks to get a physical copy (signed or not?)

Animal Magnetism + XXX pack — Kelsey Short Combination of Animal Magnetism (the original) and the “spicy DLC” that is the smaller Animal Magnetism XXX. Both are riso printed at the SVA Riso Lab in NYC. Buy both together and save!

Yesterday at @smallpressexpo.bsky.social I picked up copies of @kelseysshorts.bsky.social Animal Magnetism + the R18 sequel... absolutely my favorite finds of the day! Featuring a little guy just trying to find love... and snail sex. 🐌

Cleis Press just cancelled their Best Women's Erotica of the Year series ... that they were actively reviewing submissions for ... wtf ??

the urge to start my own paying queer speculative erotica publication simply because there are so few markets for it.. perhaps one day... then they'll all see

I enjoyed KPop Demon Hunters, but what I enjoy more is how obsessed the general public is with it - it does the heart good

Current coping mechanism: keeping the @sevenseasentertainment.com tab for Thrice Married to a Salted Fish open so I can remember that 1 good thing is coming down the line ... yes the world continues to decay BUT I will get to hold my favorite danmei in my own 2 hands on November 11

Thanks for including me!

This! I love libraries and I love it when readers ask their libraries to include my books ❤️
