With Nebula voting closing soon, allow me to ask one more time for your consideration 🦢✨

I love this book dearly and you should get it while you still can! It’s seriously one of the best books I read last year!

This was one of my absolute favorite books I read last year, and I read a LOT of good books last year. I’m hoping it’ll quickly find a new home because it really is incredible, but in the meantime, y’all should grab it while it’s still available. 🌈📚

I love this book so deeply and sincerely & I know it will find the home it deserves soon

In the meantime, I would encourage my friends to consider getting a copy before it becomes unavailable

🫂 🫂 🫂

If you haven’t read How to Survive This Fairytale and you want to—or, if you’re one of the readers who loves this book—you should still be able to purchase it wherever books are sold through March 31.

I might recommend making any purchases sooner rather than later.

On March 31, Hedone Books will be closing.

After March 31, How to Survive This Fairytale will not be available for purchase.

Thread. 🧵

I just found out that Hedone Books (the publisher for HTSTF) is shutting down. According to the author's Instagram story, the book is still available for purchase through March 31, so if you want to read it (or if you've already read it and want some extra copies), now is the time to buy it!

I was at a very straight, very white con where a lot of people kept saying "yeah, it's so hard to find trans books! There just aren't that many of them!"

And while I love to plug my own [very trans] books in these moments, I also always say "Ask trans authors. I promise they can make you a list."

💚 Happy Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week! 💚

I read "Until the Last Petal Falls" by Viano Oniomoh a few days ago and I loved it!

I really needed a queerplatonic love story like this in my life 💖 It was such a beautifully retelling of Beauty and the Beast. Highly recommend!

Of course it's hard to miss the fact that Hedone Books has shut down, leaving authors completely screwed over.

If you're one of their authors please feel free to reach out as Cloaked Press, LLC will be willing to look at books and hopefully offer new homes.

Begging everyone who hasn’t read How to Survive This Fairytale yet to pick it up immediately!! It’s such a lovely and heartfelt story and you won’t regret it!!

And if you have read (and loved) it already, maaaaybe (as in *you should*) consider voting for it in some awards 🫶🏻

It's that time of year again! The Locus Awards are looming in the distance, but you need to choose your champions! Voting is now open for all, give your favorite authors and works the voice they deserve!

Vote now at poll.voting.locusmag... or via the link in our bio.

It's free! It's open! You can rank works on the long list and/or write in your other faves!

Nightly reminder to please consider this novella of queer triumph & healing this awards season 💗

Unfortunately small presses close all the time, and their baby bird books need to find a new nest. My fledgling sun-vampire queer cannibal novella, SUNBATHERS, now needs a new home, as does my sapphic pirate novella QUEEN O'NINE TAILS.

If you know a toothy little home for either, please hit me up!

Spreading the word!!

Currently reading a book that I'm really enjoying so far and suddenly there's a random joke about sugary foods causing diabetes... 🙄 Can we stop it with the fatphobia and ableism please? Chronic illnesses are not a joke, and it's been proven that sugar does not cause diabetes.
