πŸ”₯ You think you’ve heard scary stories? Think again. Two real lives were torn apart in ways you won’t believe.

😱 On Aug 28 at 1:00 PM EDT, my new video drops on YouTube: β€œ2 Terrifying True Stories About Fire-Related Disasters.”

Will you watch before bedtime… or will you regret pressing play? πŸ‘€

The cover for Songs of Broken Bells by Lilly Lockwood. It features the four main characters arranged in a diamond formation, a stained glass design at the top with a sun on one side and shadows on the other, and a string of cracked bells on the sides. 
Liadan is at the bottom, holding up a candle. She has orange skin, silver hair, black rams horns, and black markings on her arms. She's wearing a green cloak and a yellow dress. Vasil is to her left. He is also holding a candle. Vasil has brown skin with a bark-like texture with patches of paler skin and moss. His hair is brown and curly. He is wearing a green caftan with yellow filigree. Minno is on the right, also holding a candle. They have pale skin, blonde hair with braided sideburns, and round framed glasses. They are wearing a white shirt with part of their kilt (in a brown and blue tartan) draped over one shoulder. Aila is behind the other three characters with her wings wrapped around them. She has pink skin, magenta hair styled in pigtail braids, and small pointed horns. She has a red scarf.

Oh by the way, don’t forget you can ask your library to order nearly any book you want to read but don’t want to buy. And as authors we love libraries buying our books & readers being able to access them through libraries.

A rosy maple mothwoman β€œholding” a copy of A Thorns Rose.

Rosie… the rosy maple mothwoman thinks you should pick up a copy of A Thorn’s Rose.

It is a collection of sapphic monster erotic and TWO of the stories happen to feature a mothwoman.

Both sound like a powerful conundrum. But I think you’d be better off as a squirrel. They can eat fruit too I believe

Another day, another inexperienced but hopeful writer, announcing that they have β€œbeen offered a book deal” for Β£20,000. Turns out that the author is being expected to PAY THIS to the publisher, not the other way round. Folks, no publisher does this.

It feels weird not to be writing right now. The Price of Happiness is still with my editor and I don’t know what to do.

Have my love and Deepspace MC getting proposed to by Sylus I guess.

She doesn’t write it now, but Autumn Breeze’s sapphic fiction was some of the first I read way back on wattpad. Latoya_Love was another user who’s work really helped me when I was younger, even thought her stuff kept getting purged.

20 pages is not a lot to read, but it IS a lot to write. We’re in the final stretch on draft 2!!!
