One Night in Hartswood and All the Painted Stars are both $0.99 on Kindle/Kobo all month long!! Grab yerself some cheap medieval queers while you can βš”πŸ³β€πŸŒˆ

To celebrate my first day (well, sort of) of funemployment I spent two hours cleaning the kitchen, including scrubbing the grout with a toothbrush. Can you tell? Not even a bit.

just saw a comment thread on a tiktok of someone asking for reading recs where one person recommended my book and another, totally separate person recommended my fanfic. Should I tell them lmao

Casually reposting this one to the author acc bcos LOOK isn't it GORGEOUS?? I'm so pleased this is lovely πŸ₯Ί my wonderful girls done so perfectly!!

Small update to the profile description today.....

Just realised I have, somehow, totally failed to thank @aspencerhall.bsky.social & co for this. I read it while writing Book Three and it was an incredible starting point for my research about medieval trans identities - and one I kept returning to. I've recommended it so many times. 1/1

AMAZING NEWS. All the Painted Stars (which, incidentally, is now out in the US) is shortlisted for the RNA's Popular Romance Fiction award!! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰ So proud of my sword lesbian babes πŸ₯ΊπŸ’–

I keep seeing Takes about Meta and AI and LibGen and as an author who is currently facing a lot of employment uncertainty around my day job mostly I just want to get under the desk and cry.

guess which game/ship I have, predictably, gotten very into again πŸ‘€

sometimes i get this stuck in my head, despite it not being a real song.

A few months ahead of us yet, but here are the prompts in advance for 2025's #MonstrousMay Challenge! Monstrous May is an annual prompt fest celebrating monsters and monsterfuckery, where you're encouraged to create whatever you like for prompts that coincide with each day of the month of May!

I really haven't been *here* in a while (nor have I been doing promo anywhere, really) partly because of the unending horrors, but also because I burned out real bad with the first draft of my book, and then I had a sudden family death. I am here, but I am very small and tired.

ohhh yes please πŸ‘€

That last post is wrong, I now realise, because it's no longer on sale. But I am very tired and very burnt out so. eeehhhhhh.

Apropos of nothing, have this review for my queer romance, One Night in Hartswood. Hartswood is currently only $0.99 on Kindle and Kobo if you wanted to fact check this egregious claim for entirely innocent reasons πŸ‘€

I. What?? I just checked out the rest of their IG page and the rest of their info posts are equally insulting. Can we stop calling books "clean", already? Especially in the current political climate? jfc.

βš”οΈ A BALLAD FOR SLAYERS & MONSTERS COVER REVEAL βš”οΈ I’m so excited to finally share this beautiful cover art that was done by @afoolsdeath.bsky.social for my upcoming fantasy full of vampires & queer women.

today's challenge: trying to get Microsoft to downgrade me back to the classic plan. Wish me luck.

😍😍😍

I seem to have acquired 100s of new followers overnight, so if anyone wants to out a trans author during a very stressful (& expensive) time, I have books about lesbian knights, nonbinary demigods, and a transfemme basilisk for your perusal. Lush prose and HEAs across the board!πŸ’™ riengray.itch.io

YOU CANNOT GRIND THE BONES OF YOUR ENEMIES INTO DUST TOMORROW IF YOU DO NOT TAKE YOUR MEDICATIONS.

Just went to do this and, yeah. What the fuck?
