With the submission window for GENDER EVER AFTER now closed, I want to offer my sincere thanks to everyone who participated! 🥰

Up next, a lot of reading, some tough decisions, and the pleasure of figuring out how the stories all fit/flow together. 🤔

Except when you pick what you think is a yummy old fashioned glazed Timbit only to bite into it and get a cream filling surprise. *shudder*

if you like the ace romance and humour of someone you can build a nest in by john wiswell, the messy-queers-fighting-for-justice vibes of the kingston cycle by CL polk, and the worldbuilding of sky on fire by jenn lyons then you’re gonna love the dragon next door 🌈📚 #booksky

In my chat with Bookish Whimsy, I discussed how fencing shapes my action and dialogue writing. A duel has its own rhythm, much like conversations. When done right, readers truly feel the scene.

HIS PEAK SUBMISSION is intense femdom erotica that explores chastity, bondage, impact play, and the erotic thrill of outdoor surrender. A story where dominant trans women lead, and a service-oriented submissive follows.

I'm sure somebody put a lot of thought into this dragons exhibit at @ripleysaquariums.bsky.social ... and it's a very cool hoard .. but all can think is "No! Those poor books!" 😁

Today's word is ROOM. Today's #BookQW is from Child of the Grove, my 1st published novel. (@dawbooks.bsky.social '88) a created world fantasy that's pretty cozy by today's standards if you ignore what the antagonist used as mortar when building his tower. If you were every curious about...
Audio cover of Wizard of the Grove, digital cover of Child of the Grove, and audio cover of Child of the Grove run across the bottom. The digital Child cover shows Crystal, the protagonist, reflexed in a dragon's eye -- which I thought was pretty cool. Hooded woman from the audio Child is in the upper and middle left. Quote to the upper and middle right. "He'll be in the thick of the fighting with the Elite," Belkar pointed out as the prince dashed out of the room. "Aye," agreed the king grimly. "But they'll have to go through the Elite to get to him. It's the safest place I can think of."
