A Swiss army pen? currently.att.yahoo.com/att/affordab...

A graphic background of a kitchen table in a room features the cover of Bald-Faced Liar by Victoria Helen Stone. The text reads β€œThe narrator’s voice is nothing short of joyful” -Kristan Higgins. Then β€œBooks I’ve Loved #HigginsReads

Red alert! 🚨 KRISTAN HIGGINS LIKED MY BOOK! β€œBald-Faced Liar by Victoria Helen Stone sounds dark and scary, but the wonderful thing is, it’s not. The narrator’s voice is nothing short of joyful, exuberant at times.” Eeee! This was definitely the most fun I’ve had writing a bloody suspense. πŸ˜‰

Googled the artist -which I should've done at first but was so blown away by the image ... Anyway, she's a young Black woman, self described as a digital artist who also uses Photo Shop and AI. *sigh* If this image is AI generated I'll be heartbroken but will delete it. Not promoting AI. At. All.

Artist is Kandise King. Description of painting says: This artwork honors strength, identity, and cultural reimagining. β€œHigh Noon Heiress” stands as a powerful portrayal of heritage and style, elevating Western aesthetics through a fresh, commanding perspective.

Pretty sure they’d be as pissed off as the authors they’re stealing from.

Ton of books from every author I know on the site! So infuriating. You have to wonder how the thieves would react if their employer were to say to them: β€œNo pay check for you this week. The money you earned was sent to some random person in Montana.”

Officially asking now for author folks (and reader folks) to tell me about the new queer holiday romances coming out this yearβ€”I don’t know why I’m having trouble finding them this year, but I am.

Drop 'em here, please.

(Bonus if low-angst; also happy for sapphicβ€”this is not just a dude zone).
