This is one of my fav covers I had the chance and opportunity to make this year. It’s was so fun and challenging in a good way.
Thanks a lot for having me.

I begged Jenny to write this and am so grateful she did.

Sex scene are craft. They are characterization. They are worldbuilding. They are storytelling.

The fact that we're culturally too uncomfortable with sex to recognize that is not the fault of well written sex scenes!

Jenny is doing such incredible work writing about the work that sex scenes do and I'm so grateful for it. We need more of this, but for reasons covered in the essay, a lot of critics are afraid or ill-equipped to do it.

Anyway, this is excellent

worth giving this another push, we're back to gouging you for the full price on monday, and if you liked the book (or hated it, it's all press), feel free to say so because I can probably leverage it to secure another deranged book deal down the line
Isabella Nagg and the Pot of Basil is a Kindle deal this month! it's 99p, you might as well steal it and smack me with a kipper —I move up the rankings, you get an almost-free, not-exactly cozy book about goblins, seems very fair

At the moment, the plan is seven total Paladin books and three total Swordheart books! And maybe a standalone because I feel like Jorge needs his own book.

I am at the airport now and will shortly board my flight. Have made it about half way to the cost of the ticket (which ended up being £1300). I am so thankful for what I’ve received so far. Please continue to circulate and help me to make up the difference 🙏🏾
I have a big request. My baby cousin, 15, is in hospital, non-responsive. I'd like to see her one last time & am trying to fly across the ocean *tomorrow* to make this happen. It would cost about £2500 or £3300 dollars. If you're able to contribute, this is my paypal: paypal.me/riversandfam
Pay Rivers Solomon using PayPal.Me
Go to paypal.me/riversandfam and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

It's been 9 days since I had to let him go, and it's so hard. He was that special cat, a tiny surprise I stumbled upon only a year ago. We were supposed to have years and years together, not to go to the vet one morning only to for him to be dead by the evening.
