Roscoe G. Beetle

The cover of a book. It is a scene in a space station's dock where two men are sitting on blankets, a bear in a blue jumpsuit and a trucker cap and a rabbit wearing a suit with the jacket draped over his shoulder. They are looking out through a force field at the planet Jupiter. The title of the book is "Thorns" by "Roscoe G. Beetle." A space ship flies by in the background. The two men are sharing a cigarette back and forth.

IT'S OUT!

A tale of a pair of desperate lovers hurting one another and letting themselves be hurt just to feel something.

It is the tale of Roy, and his dangerous obsession. It is the tale of Sam and his self-destructive desire.

This is Thorns! Pick it up now!

The best feeling is hearing the raspy voice and labored breathing of the poor battered wretch in the middle of the fray answering "Yeah."

Eternal mood

The cover art for "A Portrait For Tomorrow" by Raynarde. A picture of a bespectacled lion and a fox walking through a field of wheat.

SO in the wake of the Furry Book Bundle and Furry Book month I decided to actually sit down and READ some of these books, and just by accident (or the fact that it starts alphabetically with "A") I began with @raynarde.bsky.social's lovely, elegiac novel. 1/6

(Get it here: thinking-fox.com/books/)

Sure! You want some furry erotic literature? Welcome in and buy my book!

A blue-furred anthropomorphic cat with glowing green eyes and a cybernetic right arm stands in a portal with a blue background, the portal is surrounded by a circuit board design in shades of green. The title text reads "The Analog Cat and other animals" with the author name near the bottom reading "Alice Dryden."

Cover reveal!

Robot cats, four hundred drunk rabbits, a kitsune fighter pilot, and a gerbil who thinks she’s James Bond.

A collection of speculative fiction stories, featuring creatures, from Ursa Major and Cóyotl Award winner @huskyteer.co.uk

Cover art of The Wideness of the World, with artwork by @sovka.bsky.social. The artwork depicts several anthropomorphic characters in a tavern, with one (a cat) gesticulating wildly as he tells a story. Several flagons of beer are on a candelit table and several of the people are playing a card game.

Pirates sail the high seas. Revolutionaries fan the flames of their causes through the streets. The world, once so close, now grows wide as new lands are conquered.

The Wideness of the World will release 13/12/2025 and is now available for pre-order.

Book Review: The Light of the Dawn: An Anthology of Antiquity I was a bit too busy to finish Fairy Tales this week, so I thought it fitting to post my review thread of the second book in this anthology series! The fourth book, The Wideness of the World, is comin...

Are you thirsty for a closeted trucker with belly peek and capable of great violence? Find out how bad of a decision that really is! Buy Thorns at Bewere today!

An explainer image for a character from thorns. It shows a pen and pencil drawing of an old rabbit leaning on a wall wearing a white suit with an undone tie and his shirt unbuttoned to his chest. He wears loafers. His ears are swept back in a way that suggests he's balding. He has a cigarette in his mouth which he is lighting with an old-fashioned lighter. Text: "Meet the cast of Thorns." Sam Thorn Age: Fuck you Planetary Imports Bullet list: Item 1: Insecure, manipulative, emotionally stunted. Item 2: Smells like a scented candle in an ashtray. Item 3: Divorced, doesn't like to talk about it. (Talks about it anyway) Item 4: Bored enough to make some bad decisions.

Sam still thinks of himself as a "Twink" after all these years.

I know for a FACT some of y'all love to see an extremely divorced old loser so here you go. My gift to you!

An explainer for one of the characters from Thorns. It depicts a black and white drawing of a bear wearing a trucker hat and an undershirt. He is fat, with his belly peeking out under his shirt. He wears a jumpsuit stripped down to his legs, with the arms tied around his waist, and thick work boots. He is holding a cigarette in his thumb and forefinger like he's not an experienced smoker. His face has a look of wide-eyed terror on it. Text: "Meet the cast of Thorns" Roy Archer Age: 45 FREIGHTER Bullet point list: Point 1: Lonely, desperate, touch-starved. Point 2: Enjoys pro-wrestling, swears its not a "Gay thing." (it is) Point 3: Big Paws. (The better to punch drywall with) Point 4: In love? Or dangerous obsessive? Why choose?

If only Roy was on the internet enough to know how much ass "closeted trucker with belly peek and capable of great violence" would have gotten him...

I hope you're all excited for Thorns! I know I am!

Vikas Thatcher, wanted for piracy and crimes against the crown.

Vikas is a supporting character of a comic collaboration between @draite.bsky.social and myself. Set on the high seas, a tale of pirates, bargains and rampant, rough gay sex.

Since Queer can mean our wonderful lesbian friends I have to recommend Fairy Tale by Robin furplanet.com/shop/item.as... which has such a delightful dynamic between the two women characters at the center I couldnt help but smile and cheer them on @furplanet.com

TYSM for the shoutout!!! And I definitely need to grab a few of the other books on this list oooh. I've been looking at Noss Saga for a while, this is probably a good excuse to pick it up

Spirit of the Wolf | WolfSinger Pubs Tucked deep in Colorado’s Wet Mountains, where pine forests whisper with the wind and the night sky twinkles with unfiltered stars, is Mission: Wolf; a place where the voices of wolves echo across the...

Big news: I have a story in this upcoming anthology!

How about a furry romantasy about a wrestler who is brought into an alternate universe and discovers he's the son of a great magical bear hero? @kodacopeland.bolf.club's "My Remise" features sword fighting (heavy on the sexual tension), magic & adorable characters.

Link to his shop here:

Absolutely! It should be posted later this week! I'll make a new post and bump this when the pdf version is up

Not sure when an epub version will be out, I think that's up to Fenris and when they get their website spruced up

What, just one?

There's plenty I COULD say, but let's go with "Thorns" by @roscoegbeetle.bsky.social. A middle-aged, rocky, blue-collar M/M romance in space: www.bewere.net/product.php?...

#AMoRaR

Desperation. Obsession. Self-destruction. Roy and Sam veer between tenderness, fear, joy, and violence as obsession and unexpected feelings drive into the other's paths again and again. Get your copy of "Thorns" by @roscoegbeetle.bsky.social at bewere.net/product.php?...

For anyone that hasn't seen it yet, I did the cover for this book and it's finally out 👀

Gonna put you in suspense for a month and then roll up to the table with Hugh JackedMan the Human Fighter and Willow Elfwizard the Elven Wizard

Incredibly flattering comparisons, I only hope Thorns can live up to them!

PDF version will be up later this week, and Bewere/Fenris is working on optimizing their site to sell ePubs (No word on how long that will take though, I want the epub as well)

Thorns has been published by @bewerebooks.bsky.social and I would like to thank them for being extremely pleasant and understanding to work with!

Cover, as always, is by the wonderful @hackfurs.com

Thank you both!
