What are these books about?
Freedom!
Freedom from slavery, above all. Freedom from certain religious, political, and economic systems. Freedom from restrictions on whom one can love, and how one can form a family. And of course, freedom from clothes!

It's #speaklikeapirateday! So says the Spanish pirate Casalduero in Seeds of Stone: "No play foolings. You know which map, and you give it back to me or I not telling you one ting about how to find the rrrrrrrubies."

Official Release Announcement:

My new book, A Goblin's Plight, is now available in my own online store. It will be released everywhere else on the 26th of September.

Join our heroes on a fun romp through a fantasy world full of sentient species, surprising […]

Trope Matrix for A Goblin’s Plight by Hannah Steenbock

On a background with a brown-golden gradient the book’s cover sits in the center, surrounded by a list of tropes and arrows pointing from them to the cover.

The cover has a mottled background in green, with a stylized mountain drawing in the center. The title is spread over two lines just above the mountain’s peak. The author name sits below the mountain. Below that, the series name is The Mengarian Conspiracy, with a black crown in decoration at the very bottom of the cover.

The tropes listed are, from top to bottom: the retired fighter, the burly tavern-owner, the blond bard, mangled heroes, the cute goblin, the quest for good, the evil mage, the sweet pony, the slim assassin, fireballs!!, and award-winning indie author.

Thank you so much @clothesfreelife.com!
I do a lot of research and take it very seriously. I’m sure I make mistakes and I hope I can be forgiven. My intention is exactly as you say - to learn about understanding other cultures and share what I learn, especially regarding social nudism and the body.

Well, for all of you who have waited for Lucky's story with bated breath (I hope not, that might have been dangerous)

Promotional image for the release of A Wolf's Mate by Hannah Steenbock.

One a blue-purple background, there's a top banner, the cover of the new book, and the tag-line for the story.

Banner reads: New Release!

The cover shows a young man with dark curls wearing a simple white t-shirt and a smiling young woman with long hair wearing a black leather jacket. Behind them, a huge full moon is rising. Below the title, there's a desolate swamp with two wolves looking a little lost.

The text reads:
A Wolf's Mate
A traumatized hacker. A Wolf in love. And massive denial everywhere.
Release day: Aug 13th!
Available in all stores.
