Hi! The name's Freya Faust, author of little infamy.

If you're here for the Burke novels, start with Book 1, Stray Dogs: books2read.com/StrayDogs

The audiobook is sold here: www.audible.com/pd/Stray-Dog...

Linktree w/ everything else, including website, mailer, & sequels: linktr.ee/FreyaFaust

A graphic banner, advertising Stray Dogs as "Desperate and exhilarating", "Snarky, bloody, and fun", and "Dynamic and heartfelt queer fantasy". It depicts Morgan Burke, a young white woman with dark hair, tattoos, and a prosthetic arm, in front of a combined lesbian and transgender pride flag.

The elimination-game curse was lifted last year. It can no longer hurt us.

If you're wondering why this random person (me!) followed you today, I pilfered you from @iluvbaseball.bsky.social 's list cuz I needed more Guardios presence on my timeline. Hi! I'm Freya. Author. Nerd. Baseball fanatic who likes screaming into the void about the return of Rocc-tober

anyway, reminder that Brando Sando is a mormon in good standing aka he tithes 10% of his income to a church that just announced they filed a brief saying that protecting trans rights infringes on their religious freedom ✌️

Just trying a thing, seeing about bluski's image resolutions. Pay no mind to the woman behind the curtain.

Just a thing, don't worry about it

Making the previous post even more hilarious, that means THIS jackass is the wizened, veteran creature.

Look at this complete CHILD. This total INFANT without a thought in her head. A defenseless FETUS of a creature.

FFS.

And here I have international travel lined up this fall.

A few people have claimed that the "revoke some trans passports" in my latest story is "hyperbole" or "sensational reporting."

The Trump admin in their 1st Circuit Court of Appeals has literally said they will do this if they win.
