Okay, but the way this book has me in a literal chokehold. 💕 #booksky #romancenovel

Over the holidays, I absolutely devoured this magnificent series by Maria Lewis. It’s sooooo good… now I want to go back and read it all over again, slowly, and savor each story of love, triumph and sacrifice in the Supernatural Sisters #booksky #urbanfantasy

I love this company so much. They take hidden gems from queer romancelandia and hire MULTIPLE artists (one for the dust jacket, one for the hardcover, one for the end papers, one for the friggin PRINTED EDGES) to design a work-of-multiple-art limited edition hardcover. Go check them out!!

Proud to be a part of this WHY CHOOSE gift away connecting readers and authors writing diverse + inclusive romance and fiction… #romancelandia #booksky #amwriting fiction-atlas.com/romance/give...

Eeeek. I’m writing something dark and a bit more twisted than my usual shifters based on selkies. I have no idea when or where it will find the light of day… but for right now I’m just gonna enjoy the flow of words onto a fresh page and the relief of being a conduit once more. #amwriting

I’m honored. Thank you for adding me 🥰

Seeing these books side by side feels prophetic in a way I can’t quite put my finger on… I’ve been in an extended anxiety freeze / creative burn out for far too long. This is the work—summed up in three magnificent titles—which I’ve been doing to find my way back to me. #booksky #writerslife

Finally cracked into The Wailing Woman. I adore Maria Lewis’ work. She sweeps me away every time. I’ve been devouring this series since I discovered her werewolf trilogy and have gone back to fill in the missing pieces before the finale. What’s on your #tbr? #booksky #amreading #urbanfantasy

Fwiw, go check your settings. There’s a good chance you were “opted in” to this new sorting by default

Took this shot feeling hopeless while walking towards the Long Reef headland (Northern Beaches, Sydney, Australia). It brought a moment of brightness and gratitude to my day. #photography #mustlovenature #naturephotography

Autumn, in the woods and fields and by the river in and around the village where I live in north Dorset.

It’s a grey and stuck sort of morning over here... so I’m making tea and curling up with some Katherine May.

Something beautiful from my garden I wanted to share with you this morning…

My need for coffee is at war with my inability to function in this heat.

In case you were not there in early days of Twitter… DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO BLOCK LISTS. It sounds like a great shortcut, but malicious actors come in and create lists that include folks from our side. This was a huge problem in 2017 on Twitter. Just block trolls as they hit your feed.

Book dragon ornaments are back in stock! 📚 #romancelandia measuredandslow.studio/shop/nuvi8vm...

Forgotten chocolate, discovered in fridge doors, when searching for the meaning of life on hot nights is the BEST.

The #AudioInColor Auction isn't just about items – it's about supporting grants for BIPOC authors to fully fund their first indie audiobook production. Share this event with your friends, fellow readers, and supporters of diverse storytelling. Explore the auction: audioincolor.org/FALL-INTO-RO...

Pretty pls @bsky.app can we have an edit button?! I’m a fiddle faddler writer. Words are like playdough to me. I need to smoosh them around for maximum happy factor. But also… I usually cannot see that mistake which will drive me nuts until I hit that deadly go button!

Just a reminder that there’s an app available for your TV called PBS RETRO where you can watch all sorts of wonderful old pbs shows like Mr. Rogers and Reading Rainbow, you know, in case you might need that sort of energy right now

So many talented peeps from Substack & IG have joined so I wanted to get set up before it got too huge to find my talented writer / filmmaker friends and fellow book devourers on Bluesky. I love reading diverse PNR & urban fantasy, shifters and hedgehogs. Enough about me, tell me about you 💋🌈🦔🌈💋
