Fantasy Author and Very Serious Person
Hard to believe that I had a book come out this month, huh? Let alone the last book in a trilogy. This month has been a year in and of itself: plague, civil unrest, a reckoning in the SFF sphere, and so many other things. Kinda makes you feel like a little book birthday isn't… Continue reading A Trilogy, Complete
In celebration - and anticipation - of the third and final book in the Chronicles of Ghadid series, I'm sharing an in-world novella that takes place sometime during the events of the second book, The Impossible Contract. That said, if you haven't read The Impossible Contract: stop. Do not pass go. Do not progress forward.… Continue reading The Siege of Ghadid: Final Wave

Welcome to my ongoing and - hopefully - regularly updated list of queer adult science-fiction and fantasy books* published in 2020! (*Since novellas are making a big comeback these days, and a lot of the novellas we've seen have been decidedly queer, I'm including them along with full-length novels.) I'd intended to wait until the… Continue reading 2020 Queer Adult Science Fiction & Fantasy Books
It's been pretty quiet on here, huh. Probably because it's been pretty quiet outside of here, too. I've been kind of drifting for a bit, occasionally dipping my toes back in to see how the water feels, if this is where I want to jump in and dive deep and see just how long I… Continue reading The State of the Doore
The decade ends in a little less than two weeks, an arbitrary endpoint to an extraordinary time. I went from being afraid I would never figure out what I Wanted To Be When I Grew Up (TM) to being exactly where I've always wanted to be - with sufficient wiggle room for growth. It was,… Continue reading A Decade & A Year

The number of times… Continue reading 2019 Queer Adult Sci-Fi & Fantasy Gift Guide
