you know one thing that bothers me? last year, i set up a beautiful content calendar for 2025. i was so proud of it. but then... Meta did what it did. and now i'm like... "well i can still use a lot of this, but i kind of don't want to"

don't mind me, i'm just a queer author trying to deal with the fact that the world keeps making it harder for me (and my books) to exist but still writing. and publishing.

new month, so this is a monthly reminder: - 🏳️‍🌈 I write queer romance (gay and sapphic). but it means more than just a sexual orientation, too - ⛓️ all my books are kinky, and v sex-positive. also, realism in kink, PRICK, and RACK guidelines FTW - 🇵🇸 left-wing starts at anti-capitalism. Free Palestine.

oh look, today's my excuse of a sperm donor's birthday, and i'm "plotting" (because i'm a pantser through and through) a book with a sapphic single mom. strangely cathartic. 🌈📚 💙📚 🌈💜 🌶️📚

what's one question you've always wanted to ask authors of queer romance? (i might be a bit attention-starved) 🌈📚 💙📚 🌈💜 🌶️📚

why, yes, i've just started releasing a paranormal romance in 3rd POV (on Ream) even though for the past year i've been all about contemporary 1st POV 🌈📚 💙📚 🌈💜 🌶️📚

on completely unrelated news no one cares about, one of the waiters in the café down the street already knows my regular milkshake order. i've succeeded in life as far as i'm concerned. you can now keep scrolling.

boycotting absolutely works, but before jumping to the next shiny call for a boycott, do your research. learn how and when and why they work. analyze who will actually be hurt.

"you're funny" thanks i just stumbled upon another book that tried to make a correlation between trauma and kink a thing. 🌶️📚 💙📚

Do people* really use Feeds? and if so, which ones? *when i say people, i mostly mean queer readers. bonus points for readers of kinky queer stuff.

Today i got the prettiest book stand for my signings, and that's all i've been able to look at and think about all day, if you wondered how my writing was going. IT'S JUST SO PRETTY 🥺🥺 🌈📚 💙📚

Talking about this is not v demure of me, but there's a hardcore Trumpster attending a book signing i'm also attending. my initial plan had been to carry the cutest stickers (a tiny lion cub sleeping for Matching Wounds, milkshakes for Play Pretend, etc.) 1/2 🧵

This is your friendly reminder that i published a kinky book this month that's all about 24/7 Total Power Exchange dynamics, rubber, and more, and it would be great if i could get more reviews on it because the algorithms of hell care a lot about those 🙃 mybook.to/JustOneRule

Reason #1324 why i don't spend as much time on Meta anymore, specifically FB. i just unfriended a new batch of Zionists. so i thought i'd come here and bring it up again: if you are not 100% unapologetically pro-Palestine and anti-Israel, don't bother.

crying in i genuinely cannot leave Amazon or publish anywhere else because geopolitics are a thing and it's a fiscal nightmare here already 💙📚

#QueerPrompts My books always have politics to one degree or another, but my current WIP takes the cake (mentions of SWANA, confronting TERFs in academia, and more). 🥰

Why can i only stay ahead of schedule for only a couple of months at a time? ... crying in i need to finish rewriting the last chapters of this book ASAP 🌈📚 🌶️📚 💙📚

#QueerPrompts Mónica's is with Erika. they met while Mónica started college, and stuck together. Erika's is with Abel. they met in school. Jaime's is with Cece (obvs). They're kink siblings and met online while in high school, and then became roommates. 🌈📚 🌶️📚 💙📚 #sapphicbooks

Look, this is the "business" author in me, and i don't always like them, but... I'm all about moving to BlueSky and spending more time here, but i need an insights kind of feature that lets me see views/engagement rates/etc. 💙📚

#writinglifemonthly 🌈📚 🌶️📚 💙📚 Eli would be extra happy if their hair didn't grow as fast, because they love dying it, but they don't love the barbershops in their area. And if they were making more money online so that they could actually surprise Erika with gear and other stuff more often

Me: writes the thickest book, aka Hopes and Dreams okay, this is just the exception. it's fine Me: writes Matching Wounds see? this is not as thick. Me: Just One Rule is a bit shorter i've so got this Me: stares at a WIP of about 100k words for Puppy on a Leash Me: ... i don't got this.

I'm going through self-edits, which means re-reading so many scenes that i know might be review-bombed (because pro-Palestine, antifa, anti-TERF messagings), but it just makes my queer heart SO HAPPY 🌈📚 🌶️📚 💙📚

What is one kink you want to see me write more of? (might use it for a book or a Ream short). 🌈📚 🌶️📚 💙📚

My newest pet peeve has to be people (unknowingly) rewriting history to say that peaceful protests achieve rights and lead to tangible change. No human right or societal change has been achieved by peaceful protesting alone, even if part of the actions taken involved peaceful/nonviolent ones.

I was thinking, and i'm just very happy about the fact that no Nazi will ever pick one of my books and think it's written for them. cackles in all the political discourse i'm stuffing into my current WIP 🌈📚 🌶️📚 💙📚

So, there's a chance that my wrist will regret this if it blows up (👀👀), but... if you've downloaded Just One Rule, share a screenshot, your name, and i will send a handwritten message of thanks 🥰 #sapphicromance 🌈📚 🌶️📚 mybook.to/JustOneRule
