Happening now in my home state of West Virginia!

This flu going around is no joke. I've been basically stuck in bed for almost 10 days now. Pulled a couple muscles coughing. Got behind on my work. Bleh. Hopefully I'm all better in time for Read the Rainbow signing later this month!

Whose great idea was it to get up at 6am to write a funeral scene that would make me sob at my keyboard?

Oh right.

It was mine...

Killing characters is hard.

White text on a black background that says: As You #Like & #Share It by Pepper Oakley

I said I would never write a Roscommon because I wasn't funny enough. I guess I'm about to find out if that's true.

I agree with you. In a perfect world, I'd pull my books from KU ASAP. But it currently makes up 70% of my income (down from 80%). I'm doing my best to devest. But it doesn't happen overnight and a blanket boycott still only hurts smaller creators like me. That effort is better put elsewhere.

Honor x Ziggy in the van is still my fav. Actually, Honor is my favorite character ever.

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

This is why we need morally gray heroes. They fill that need!

The only people a boycott of KU is going to hurt are the authors. KU's income makes up a TINY bit of Amazon's income (and Bezos only owns like 8% of the company). Yes, the payouts suck. But for ppl like me, it's how I pay my bills and feed my family.

Thanks! <3

Today is the first day since January 20th that I got all my work done. Hopefully that means I'm back on track and can hit the rest of my deadlines...

I thought the same.

I'm currently working hard on A War of Four Winters so...

It's been such a struggle to work and write with everything going on in the US right now, especially in WV. I have to dedicate so much time to keeping track of what's going on. Meanwhile, people are still demandint to know:

WhAt RiGhTs HaVe YoU lOsT?

I'm out of energy to explain.

An ereader showing the cover of Body And Soul by L Eveland is held in front if a bookcase. Tags around it say: Psychiatrist, Professor, Dom & serial killer with DID. Younger tattoo artist. BDSM. Cult survivors. Found family of vigilante killers.

🌈 Body and Soul (Wayward Sons #4) by L Eveland @leveland.bsky.social

A spicy dark romance with BDSM elements, mental health rep including DID, and a cult to tackle that has been torturing their young for decades. One of the best dark romances I have read recently.

#LGBTQbooksky #QueerBookSky

I get why everyone is boycotting Amazon, but please continue to support indie authors through the boycott... buy direct from us or on other platforms. Amazon probably hasn't noticed much of a drop in their income, but many of us are really struggling right now and the boycott only hurts worse.

Book: Hero Worship by @leveland.bsky.social

Available 2/27

Hero Worship is the fifth book in the Wayward Sons series. This is a dark romance with dark themes intended for adult audiences.#bookish #books #booktok #leveland #heroworship #mmromance
