D.’s adult science fiction novel that’s Underwater meets The Expanse is everything I love about the genre AND has a trans nonbinary lead & cast of queer and disabled characters that are unforgettable.

A Black family picks their tree in a cozy Christmas tree farm. The snow softly falls around them. Illustrated by Alleanna Harris.
Christmas tree picking! (I got my first author-illustrator #kidlit book deal because of this illustration. It holds a special place in my heart. 🥹❤️)

1/ We're experiencing a huge influx of users, and with that, a predictable uptick in harmful content posted to the network.
As a result, for some very high-severity policy areas like child safety, we recently made some short-term moderation choices to prioritize recall over precision.
T-minus 6 months until the release of SALVACIÓN coming out 5/20!!! 🗡️
If you’re into a slow burn romance this one is for you.
