"Piper read Helena’s Wikipedia page and felt a thrill up her spine when she noted all of Helena’s past girlfriends. There had been quite a few."

"Piper wasn’t naive. Waitressing to pay the bills wouldn’t hurt her acting career. But reality TV? That felt like a different beast altogether."

“Hi everybody! It’s my birthday!” A woman in a pink sweatsuit walks into the train station waiting room. A guy looks up from “The Economist” and says “Happy Birthday!” Sometimes train travel is snuggly that way.

Oh thank you so much!

NoVA Prism Center A LGBT community center and library serving Fairfax County and the Northern Virginia region featuring banned and challenged books and works by LGBT authors

NoVa Prism Center is a welcoming, inclusive space dedicated to supporting and empowering the LGBTQ+ community in Northern Virginia. The center offers books, a clothing exchange and creative workshops. I had a blast at their re-opening.

I’m working on 500 words a day on book 3 while book 2 rests.

Miranda July’s “All Fours”

Traditional publishing mostly because there was a publisher I wanted to work with. #AskAnAuthor

I don’t write about royalty either but I’d say that has a lot of the same problems.

I am now answering questions on r/cooking straight out of research for my novel. This is the definition of “Knowing enough to be dangerous.”

The struggle is real.

Just going parallel with my regular career. I’d love to see moderate success at both.

Getting another sweep through book 2 done and sending out a newsletter!

Thank you!

I know, right?

#queerwriters Saturday: Check in Day!

Very little. I’m at a con and talked my mailing list up to people there but haven’t been able to focus. Right back to it tomorrow though.

Holy cats, you should be on “24!”

30s+ queer femme, who wants to feel good and think a little. Fond of spice. Bonus points for knowing sufficient American culture and romance tropes to get my jokes. Basically @guardianrock.bsky.social

I am still a newbie but that sounds to me like it will sell a lot of copies and Anne Hathaway will want the movie rights.

The draft I just finished is about crafting the love you need for who you are, no matter society’s expectations. The one due out in March is about finding love in a situation that’s beneath you and a person more complicated than they seemed.

“Principle decisions” by @theabelmont.bsky.social I love some spice.

The cover of “Sweet, Spicy, Delicate,” which shows two female hands putting strawberries on a rainbow cake.

Coming n March. Sign up for my newsletter at AllisonAshton.com and I will keep you updated.

I have tried to write through traumas but I’ve never felt like it produced good writing. These days good escapism is nice to have around.

I am very excited about AllisonAshton.com and even more so about the newsletters on the way. You sign up to get them on my site.

Someone I used to work with went and really liked it too!
