I'm a trans non-binary author. Currently, all my books are MM. The Crystals Chronicles (2 books) is YA fantasy, and Reins of Magic is 18+ spicy, cozy fantasy.

The biggest vibe in Reins of Magic, my spicy, cozy romantasy, is the spring shed LOL.

No cheating. Post your lock screen.

Artwork I commissioned from @unseeliecourt.bsky.social of my larp character and a shetland pony sized unicorn we ran into.
Screenshot of a photo lockscreen. It's a digital illustration of a vampire prince with long pink hair pressing his cheek against that of a brown, tusked pony sized unicorn. They have matching smiles.
