I want to add that it’s also okay if you want to earn money from it, because you have worked on your craft for years and deserve to be compensated for your time. writing is wonderful and passionate but it is also sometimes a job.

Do you want a fantasy novel where the rivals at the royal court end up having more than sapphic yearning? Do you want sapphic action? dax.ink/stars

here is your yearly reminder that if your pride book recs only include traditionally published authors, or white authors, or cis authors, or able-bodied neurotypical authors, your list isn’t actually that inclusive. pride means EVERYONE.

I have yet to change my prices back and I also forgot to mention here that, as with last year, my ebook store earnings for this month (not direct via ko-fi or itch) will be donated to a campaign on gazafunds.com - a reminder that pride is a protest and none of us are free until all of us are free.

I love being a freelancer because the time I spend not working is spent worrying about how little work I have which means when work picks up again I’m already burnt out from all that time I spent being stressed
