Screenshot of text: When first brainstorming the Vector City Supers trilogy, I knew the real villains in the final book would be a group of norms who want to slap restrictions on superpowered people. To say there's a lot of obvious nods in THE BRIGHTEST BLAZE to what's happening right now in the real world would be, well, obvious: Hateful political pundits on The Badger News Network. A speaking tour to bring the power back to the "real humans." And yes, counterprotests and safe spaces.
This book is overall light and funny, but it's also a great big middle finger to people who look at our differences as something bad rather than what makes us beautiful. What makes our world beautiful.
Thank you for being a real-life superhero and fighting the good fight, and thank you for being a Super Supporter of Vector City, Joan, Sadie, and the crew. 💥❤️
Image with a purple and yellow background, the illustrated book cover for The Brightest Blaze in the center, and the text: “Sometimes being a Superhero really sucks. Ignites March 10”
The book cover has a golden yellow background with a cityscape. A white woman with long red hair in a ponytail has her arms crossed over a pink T-shirt with a small coffee cup logo and “SC” on one side. She is looking sideways at a white woman with short brown hair wearing a black and red superhero suit, hands on hips. They are smiling at each other.
Some Saturday musings on THE BRIGHTEST BLAZE ahead of its upcoming release….

For absolutely no reason whatsoever and in no way directed at any men's frozen sports teams, I've had Lily Allen's "F*ck You" playing merrily in my head since last night.

This reminds me of the snowpocalypse Chicago had years ago when my black Lab found a big stick. In the middle of a blizzard.

Image with a lavender colored background, the illustrated book cover for The Brightest Blaze on the left, and the text "Preorder Campaign! Preorder through The Lavender Bookshop and receive a signed copy + swag! Releases March 10th"
We're at 2 weeks until THE BRIGHTEST BLAZE ignites! 🔥
I'm so excited to be partnering with The Lavender Bookshop for the paperback preorder. They'll send you a signed copy of the book & some cute swag. Or stop by the store in Marietta, GA to support an awesome queer indie bookstore.
