Friends! Romans! Countrymen! Lend me your ears!
Trip has a new book. It's going to be epic. He is amazing. What more do you need?!
Go chip in a few Β£$Β₯β¬ if you can so we can all relish what is sure to be a fabulosa book!
Extreme Long shot but, if anyone visited the Permanent Exhibition at the National Museum of Finland between 1995-2016 and has any pictures of the interpretation panels/display/presentation of the Suontaka sword then I'd be extremely grateful for copies!
Many thanks!
It's your chance to support our very own Trip Galey's brand-new queer AF post-apocalyptic science-fantasy novel set in a world full of drag balls, weird science, magic, and...GASP!...Polari!!
We can't wait to see how this turns out.π§
The time is NOW. Valenziaga will fall.
Category is: Science-Fantasy EXTRAVAGANZA! Think Drag Race meets a gay Game of Thrones meets Chronicles of Amber.
High drama and high CAMP!
Spread the word! RT, tell your friends, shout it from the rooftops!
BACK THE BOOK TODAY!

The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #PerfectLighting.
Perfect lighting can mean a lot of conditions depending on what one wants to capture but evening light, especially for birds with lots of white is hard to argue against. Drake Bufflehead ready for action. Anchorage #Alaska πͺΆ
