Would a vampire queen-to-be risk mind, body & soul to attempt a rite no one has performed in living memory to stop Armageddon, knowing her enemies may, meanwhile, kill her one true love? Find out reading “The Door”.

You've heard of black cat x golden retriever, now get ready for...

Mr Warren's Profession is a Victorian cross-class #mmromance featuring hurt/comfort and a happily-ever-after.
Meme. Cover art for Mr Warren's Profession by Sebastian Nothwell. A tumblr post from user letmetellyouaboutmyfeels is overlaid and reads as follows: "*walks up to a couple* So which one of you is the cheetah and which one of you is the golden retriever who keeps the cheetah from stressing themselves to death?"

Black History Month Spotlight: Dr. Dorothy Height, a lifelong civil and women’s rights activist, began speaking against lynching in high school. Inspired by Mary McLeod Bethune, she worked with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and co-organized the 1963 March on Washington. #BlackHistoryMonth #Blacksky 🖤
Alt text: A box of “Black History Flash Cards Volume 2: Women” from Urban Intellectuals is displayed on a wooden surface. The box features images of three women: Surya Bonaly, Nanny of the Maroons, and Dr. Dorothy Height. Next to the box is a flashcard featuring Dr. Dorothy Height, wearing a purple hat and a white outfit with purple accents. The card includes her name and lifespan: “March 24, 1912 – April 20, 2010,” and the Urban Intellectuals website at the bottom.
