The conditions we are writing under demand audacity. It's scary. But no time to wait.

Damned right. And I'm glad you have the tenacity to write what you do. Nobody else can.

I'm writing my first one and I don't know if it will ever see the light of day.

This is me, with the beautiful addendum that I haven't even sold *one* book! My timing sure is excellent

Damn do I feel this. I can’t and won’t change that my soul is queer Thai body horror. So I guess no new books for me.
