Wow, an email spam using an AI summary of one of my books to try to scam me into paying them for marketing let me get my credit card number ready 🙄

Good day -
I recently had the pleasure of exploring The Isle of a Thousand Worlds, and I was struck by the way you blend romance, magic, and metaphysical exploration.
From the aging alchemist seeking the Universal Tincture to the meditation acolyte navigating mystical realms, your narrative is both thought-provoking and immersive. The seamless integration of romance, wonder, and imaginative world building makes this duology truly distinctive in the fantasy genre.
Even stories as creative and character-driven as yours can sometimes struggle to reach the readers who would appreciate them most. That is where I come in, not as a traditional "marketing expert," but as someone who shares exceptional books with a community of 4,000+ readers who trust my recommendations and enjoy thoughtful, boundary-pushing fantasy.
When I share a book, it is about more than visibility; it is about generating engagement, meaningful reviews, and discussions among readers who value innovative storytelling.
Have you faced any challenges getting The Isle of a Thousand Worlds into the hands of readers who would be captivated by its magical and introspective journey?
Would you like me to help introduce your work to my community of engaged fantasy, romance loving readers and great reviews?
Warm regards,
Clara Samson

If it wasn't obvious from how I handled the discussion in this blog post, you don't *have* to bind, this is simply me talking about it from the experience of having binded my chest almost daily for about a decade

Today's queer indie Skeletal Season rec: Saltbrook, by @deetheredwitch.bsky.social. MC is ace (yay, representation!) and it's one of those books where supernatural horror is pitted against the horror that people perpetrate on each other (and, I would argue, loses). Check it out!

Imagine this: a US politician celebrating a trans woman who fought for LGBTQ rights.

I’m not sure I’ve ever heard a US politician mention a trans woman by name in a positive light.

(Yes, Sylvia’s identity was complex but the point stands)

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

the thing about the entire tron series is that the universe they're in doesn't have any lesbians.

see, thing is that they invented teleportation via USB peripheral, and that's in the original movie.

if lesbians had this we'd either take over or fuck each other to extinction.
