With the Holidays coming, here's a little reminder that my books can be found on most online platforms AND direct - there's a handy author Carrd, too! Consider supporting my work - as well as that of other indie creatives!

The Fine Line Between us is a love story, full of questionable decisions, fear, want and shame. This isn't a #romancenovel where the couple does everything right and is open to each other from the start - it's real and gritty and ugly

📚💙 Share your love of AND for indie authors this holiday season!!! Obviously buying/reading/borrowing their books is the best way to support your favorite authors, but there are so many others ways to celebrate our books.

Thursday is easing into the afternoon, and we're here to ease another semi-finalist onto our list.

This one's a different take on changing the world, perhaps, kind of? Read it and find out.

2026 is the year I stop entertaining people who only use meas a stepping stone and dispose of me once they don't need me for that. It's the year I demand reciprocity and respect, where my boundaries stand and those who can't give back must leave.
2026 is the year I enter my villain era.
That's it.

it's funny that my Payhip has loads of views, but no sales.
It's funny that of all my books on Smashwords only the FREE ones are being downloaded.
It's funny that on the 'zon, the only sales i ever make are the perma free books.
Think this should tell me something 🤔

Still Life is not your average happy #secondchanceromance - there's very little happiness about it, seeing this is a rather unhealthy relationship. so, if your jam is a step away from the usual meet-cute lovey-dovey pink glasses romance, this is just what you need.

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.

For day 12 of my Countdown to Christmas, I have another Borun-Ma tale, full complicated relationships, some of them on the dark side. But this is a world rife with dangers, so our protagonists must join forces against the monsters wrecking havoc - expect a heist!

Last summer I released the third Cruel Gods book, and while it didn't receive any Indie Ink nominations, I'm still very proud of this book and consider it to be my best work to date! And it made people cry! 😂

For the second day of the week, we want to present Team TBR's second semi-finalist for the SFINCS novella competition.

This one's a gripping little horror story, and we wish the author the best of luck in the next round.

Slovakia rewrote its Constitution to erase rights for LGBT+ people and reject international human rights protections. The EU has opened an infringement procedure – but stronger action depends on us. Add your name now. a.allout.org/s/v0qyx/

Honestly, every time the discussion arises (as it inevitably must) of what authors/artists/creatives should/ought/must do in this day and age in terms of publicity and marketing that is not actually about the creation of art, I just feel exhausted.

Day 11 on my Countdown to Christmas to bring you a book that won't fit into a genre. Is it #fantasy? Well, yes. #urbanfantasy? Kinda. #epicfantasy? Huh, yep. #portalfantasy ? Yup. What about #swordandsorcery? Well, that, too. And #danmei? See, that was my main inspo...

5. Understand what your readers expect

anyone who picks one of my books should do so with absolutely NO expectations whatsoever. I am too dumb to understand even my own expectations, let alone the readers'...
Five tips for writing more evocative emotions:
1. Show, don't tell
2. Sweat the small stuff
3. Cozy up with your characters
4. Use empathy when you lack experience
5. Understand what your readers expect

For Day 10 of my Countdown to Christmas I thought someone might appreciate a romantic tragedy - no happy endings, here! - that is part of the Borun-Ma Series and will both make you love and hate the protagonists. books2read.com/ap/RQzv6X/Ru...
