π ooh!
I DREAM of the day readers simply have to create fan art of my books.
CHARLIE
why do you have to hurt me like this so early in the day
Good morning, BlueSky! Who is barely hanging on by a caffeinated thread today? β
I'm sorry I missed it, I haven't been on socials much this week π How was your release day?
Isn't that just the cutest tiny desk? π
Holy CRAP, we hit 500 copies sold/downloaded.
I never expected more than a handful of people to care about this super queer little book. I knew debuting with transgender and disabled MCs was a risk.
You've made fanart and fanfic, bought 500 copies, and regularly demand a sequel. THANK YOU
Happy release day to @cquince.bsky.social and Consorting with the King!! π₯³
I was in all-day training the last two days, so if I sound tired today, that's why π€£ BUT I'm a mental health first aider now, so it was worth it ^-^
How long was the presentation? You've earned a whole plate of cookies for getting through it!
When you're waiting for an important email from someone and you don't know when you're going to get it so while you wait you kinda feel like you can't really commit to anything
I'm so sorry. You're all doing the best you can, and that means you didn't fail anyone. Never doubt that. It must be rough and exhausting for all of you.
I would definitely read through that!
WELL DONE. That must have been nerve-wrecking π
Thank you! πΈ^-^
π
*flails* I can't wait to read it all over again!
I keep getting messages from people saying, "I'm sorry I couldn't give more."
I don't think you realize what $3 actually does. It doesn't only chip away at the mountain. It gives me hope that we're not going to drown. It makes me feel like trying is worth it.
It matters.

Background: underwater, the sun shining down through the surface of the water so there's a glow at the top Tempest, Take Me Home At the bottom is character art of both Max and Eli.
Background: underwater, the sun shining down through the surface of the water so there's a glow at the top Adventure calls... Sometimes, it calls you home. The paperback and ebook copies of the book are centered on the page, and there are links under that.
It doesn't get much more queer than Butt Pirates!
β¨οΈ A T4T romance--yes, both MCs are trans.
β¨οΈ Plus, they're polyamorous.
β¨οΈ There are even asexual and lesbian side characters.
Read this and piss off the government as a bonus.

YAAAAAAAS this is excellent news
I do love unexpected turns while writing!
The words "ARC READERS WANTED" against dark gray concrete. Framing them are angled images of the black and red cover of my book, THE DEVOURING.

PLOT SUMMARY Throughout their marriage, Jason and Ayanaβs lives always ran parallel but never entwined. Itβs the perfect arrangement. Heβs free to pursue his dangerous yet lucrative career as an elite assassin, and she can focus on conducting autopsies for the cityβs forensic center. But after Jason spares a witness to his latest murder, he becomes the prime suspect in his own brotherβs homicide. While he hunts for the real killer, Ayana discovers an impossible illness in one of her cadavers. The couple quickly identify an unsettling connection between the two eventsβone steeped in religious fanaticism and occult conspiracy. Jason and Ayana must learn to work together, using their wits, lies, and criminal connections to uncover the truth behind a mysterious cult and exact revenge. But human enemies are the least of their concern. Beyond the boundary of their world exists a cosmic threat of apocalyptic proportions, and it is trying to break through.

Scattered pink-and-white flower clusters on a larger bush, which is showing the first few green leaves. Before it a white hand holds a cup of tea, with the words Hug in a Mug printed on the side of the cup.
Spring greetings, folks π We've had so much rain here in England this year, it's lovely to see the sun and have my first tea of the day outside again! Might even live dangerously and put the laundry outside π€£
Yes! Just a lot to adjust to all at once :)
SO, to summarise, it's a lot of change all in one go and it's all positive and exciting, but it also means I don't have a lot of energy left for other things, especially social media π I'll try to check in, but I don't have the spare energy to be here a lot. (4/4)
Esta 4 is still resting, but once my schedule has adjusted with the new job, I'll likely start editing the first draft.
The epic fantasy is going. I don't need to rush it, & that feels great.
Some special editions are also going. More on that soon.
(3/4)
I got a new job in my library as an Accessibility Learning Resource Assistant, I'm being trained as a mental health first aider, & our LGBT network hopes to implement rainbow office hours, so queer members of staff and students have someone to talk to & feel less alone in their experience. (2/4?)
I know I don't owe social media an apology for not being here 24/7, BUT here's an update on why I haven't been here 24/7 lately:
(a small threat, 1/4?)
To be honest, I never miss it when I'm off π I do miss talking to some of the people, though! And I've no idea, I didn't think that far ahead π
Friends, I have got to do better at social media than disappearing for two weeks every month πDoes anyone want to be social media accountability buddies? π€£
