If you're considering supporting my LGBTQ+ historical romances on Patreon but want to make sure there'll be enough content to make it worth your while, here's the rough release schedule for the rest of 2025.

Two novels and two short stories. Not bad, IMHO!

Read chapter one of AMID THE FLOATING GARDENS for free!

Here's a post in which I explain what inspired me to craft these queer historical romances.

I’ll be launching a Patreon in the next few days. The first of my upcoming queer historical romances will be published next year, but supporters will get access to those novels many months in advance, along with behind the scenes peeks, additional stories, and lots of other perks. Stay tuned!
