#QueerWritersChat, well, first thing's first, thank you!

Secondly, I'm part of @the-book-bazaar.com. My project, Fairy Seasons, is pretty cool. But check out all the others, too!

I have three poetry books out in the world. On itch.io and my kofi page, they are free.

linktr.ee/spookypickle

A graphic with the words "The Poetry Trifecta" on the top. The themes of the graphic are golden and black.

There are three book covers on the graphic. Starting from the left is Through the Shards of My Heart. It has a glowing rose on it. In the middle is Whimsy and Weirdos: Poetry for the Unique. It is colorful and looks like a comp notebook. The third, to the right, is called The Shadow on the Wall. There is a spooky figure on the cover.

I was hoping to have a link this week but still no word from the publisher 😕

But I will share something that's been making me happy lately! My friend Laura's book, Between Sun and Shadow, is fantastic! And it's available for pre-order now. Go check it out 👇

#WriteStuff

A promotional poster for Maryneal 1962. It shows the front cover with a girl running towards the audience covered in blood behind her the bloody title is on a movie marquee.

To the left of the cover is a blurb that says "a small town girl must find a cure before the next full moon or she'll have to kill the boy next door". Underneath that is the Barnes & Noble and Amazon logos

An image of the desert with a quote from the short story packs of yellow eyes. It says all who wants belonged here or not welcome.
