It’s time for the Indievisible Indie Author Hauntfest! All of my ebooks are just $.99 this weekend on my site so I wanted to make a fun A24 style poster menu to show off what you can nab for your Halloween TBR!

Hundreds of books are participating so make sure you check out the IndieVisible site! 🎃

A brand new story from The World of The Night Farm is arriving on Tapas on the 29th, just in time for spooky season! If you want a quirky and creepy small town mystery to dive into please go check out the series on Tapas and give it some love! The prologue is up and ch.1-3 are dropping soon! ⚰️

Hey bookish babes! A few updates and FAQs about my ebooks/online shop! Buying directly from me helps ensure I can continue to live as a queer, disabled, unemployed indie author AND the books are yours to keep once you purchase them (unlike buying from the ‘Zon)! Come get some spooky-gay goodness!

I woke up to my account being in the red by $100 after a ton of medical stuff processed all at once that I was not aware was going to hit, wiping out the last of my savings. If anyone wants a book for spooky season (or can drop a few on Venmo) today would be a GREAT day to do so 🖤

Oh! Yessssss, love this! My cozy paranormal romance series has vampires in it! It’s also full of queer and disability rep across all of the titles!

One of the original copies of vol.1 came into Half Price when I worked there and I nabbed it since it was OOp, and it’s definitely smaller than a lot of manga from the same time period. I wondered how they’d do this new version, cause the inner margins on the original feel tight.

Well now that’s exciting! Funded in one hour and forty minutes and already nearing the second stretch goal by 2.5 hours! That’s really amazing, I’m still kind of in awe 🧡

I’m having a major surgery in a few days, so I’m reminding everyone that I have books for sale (tons of ebooks and a Patreon, too!

I know things are tough for everyone right now but if you need a good bite-sized book I’d appreciate the sales 🥰

So excited to share the cover for my upcoming Paranormal RomCom novella “The Devil Is Here (and He’s Demanding The Rent)” done by the amazing Vamorii!

The book is releasing in Nov. and I can’t wait! It’s silly, sweet, and a li’l steamy! Preorders are open on my site for physical copies 💖

Howdy y’all! I’m having a major surgery in a few weeks that will render me unable to work for a while, so I’m having a small sale and asking for mutual aid since neither of my part time jobs have short term disability/sick days! I have loads of books and stories to send!

Shares appreciated! 💜

Oh no! My work is too hot for Itchio! Following in some fellow creative's footsteps, I'm doing an emergency/farewell sale JUST for the weekend. It runs until midnight tomorrow, and you can get five of my mature, queer, steamy novellas for 50% off! Please spread the word 💚

The Wylder Years, the 18+ prequel to my slightly popular cozy novel series “The Night Farm” is officially live on my website in ebook format! To celebrate, I wanted to share some of my favorite quotes from everyone’s favorite good boy babygirl, Cane!

The ebook is in my Christmas in July sale, too!

This Itch mess is tiring, I have a longer post with my thoughts on Insta and other people have said things more eloquently than I can. Just know that those of us who write, draw, create, and have a passion for sensual and queer joy and art need your support 🖤 show some love in whatever way you can!

It’s #hotwetpitstop time! I’m actually doing a reveal tomorrow on Insta for the variant cover done by @darkchibishadow.bsky.social and sketches for the other cover hit my inbox last week!

Sadly, between last month’s novella releases, Night Farm stuff, and my upcoming surgery, I’m behind! 😱

I have answers and pictures! I've had this option for MONTHS, didn't pay much attention to it cause it just appeared one day. It offers one-time cancellation retention and free member upgrade discounts, and you have the option to set it up manually, let their system do it, or turn it off.

It’s #portfolioday! Howdy!

Just found out I got three nominations in the first ever BookTok Indie Author Awards! I’m so excited and so very grateful, especially as an indie who doesn’t sell on big platforms and keeps their audience small. Seeing stuff like this makes me feel so grateful for my readership 🖤 voting is open now!

I actually have two 4.25x7 novelettes and they are literally the cutest things ever. They fit in my pocket and are so tiny and adorable. Are they a pain to format? Absolutely. Is it worth it? Absolutely lol look at how cute they are next to full sized books 🥹

We’re just two months away from the launch of vol. 3 of The Night Farm on Kickstarter! We’re going to have some super cute stuff with this amazing pumpkin design by @tinailustra.bsky.social available in limited quantities so make sure you go follow the prelaunch page!

I got to debut my new Rhys standing banner yesterday at a little con and I love my bite-sized cinnamon roll so much 🥹

I do have a few novelettes! I have a series that follows boyfriends who are a half-demon and a fallen angel who are rekindling their romance over the holidays! They have some light smut and they’re both around 10k! I’m working on the Halloween one next.
